What Diners Say

“Extremely overpriced, bad food, somewhat unprofessional attitude, which depends on what server or bartender you get. A beer at this place is $12, 300-400 meter down the beach at another cafe such as Moomba, the same beer is $7.5, 500m further down, it is $5.5. G&T is $17. We arri…”

“All ingredients were fresh thus I gave this place 3 stars. But the food was bland, they used lots of cheap iceberg lettuce and tiny bit of other ingredients. Small portions. View was great! Service was good too. I would not eat there again….”

— IllinoisRealtor SvetLanaCole (LanaCole), 3★ on Google

“We’ve eaten here multiple times, and I honestly don’t know why this is my first review—this place deserves all the praise! The chef goes above and beyond, preparing each meal to absolute perfection. After our morning fishing trip, where we caught wahoo, the chef created a spread …”

Frequently asked questions

Are Aruba beaches free to use?

Yes. All beaches in Aruba are public up to the high-water mark, including the stretches fronting the big resorts. You can walk on and lay a towel down anywhere, though loungers and palapas belonging to a hotel are for its guests.

Which side of the island has the calm water?

The western and southern coasts. That is where Palm Beach, Eagle Beach, Manchebo and Baby Beach sit, and where the water stays flat enough for swimming and snorkelling. The north and east coasts face open Atlantic swell and are not safe for casual swimming.

Do I need to book a beach chair?

Not on the public stretches. On Palm Beach the hotel palapas fill early and are reserved for guests, so arrive before mid-morning if you want shade or bring your own.

Is the water warm year-round?

Yes, sitting around 27 to 28°C, so no wetsuit is needed at any time of year.
