(Now Sharing Lifestyle, & Travel Tips... Enjoy!)Three reasons to stay away from Aruba
Having traveled the globe over the years and being in the hospitality business for most of my life, I know a good thing when I find it. Yes I must confess it was my first time in Aruba. An Island my sister Rose is fond of. So when I got the assignment to head out there I was like a kid in a candy store.
Let’s start with the three reasons to stay away from Aruba
Reason one. If you don’t like nice people then stay away. Reason two. If you don’t like Amazing Restaurants, homemade ice cream, enjoying a romantic candle light dinner for two on the beach, then stay away. And Reason three. If you don’t like sunny weather, blue skies, gentle breezes and turquoise water, boating, kayaking, giant water slides …then definitely stay away. This island is not for you!
Ok, so I’m being a bit sarcastic, and yes there was a dark cloud over there, one day out of nine days and that day it rained a bit…then back to paradise.
With all the hoopla about the island not being safe due to the story about that poor unfortunate gal who disappeared and assumed murdered, you would think the island is like walking around the outskirts of Washington DC. Yes the Nations capital~!
And that’s a whole other story.
But back to paradise! Ahhhh!!! Aruba!
My Travel Partner actress Tasha Tacosa boost that she has never felt so safe on a vacation, and yes this island is perfect for newlyweds, couples, friends looking to get away, family’s with small children or the corporation looking to host a cooperate event, seminar or conference.
Tasha and I met up with the general manager of the Radisson hotel Rob Smith who has been on the Island for 14 years he tells us that the Radisson is currently pumping 27 million into the hotel and property. We personally loved the hotel and the four diamond Sunset Grille restaurant. The Amazing stretch of beach, the talking parrots and all the amentias hotel had to offer. We chatted about the islands Desalination Plant being the seconds largest in the world and among the world’s cleanest water. Rob Smith says there is a high level of education with children having to speak three languages before they can graduate. The official and most widely spoken language is Papiamento (or Papiamentu). Papiamentu is a mixture of Spanish, Portuguese, Dutch, English, French, and it also has some Arawak Indian and African influences. A few more facts, 82 % of the people on the island own their own home. The island is 19.6 miles long and about 6 mile across and is under Dutch Law, outside the hurricane belt make a perfect travel destination. So next vacation… make it Aruba!
