5.00Jeff our driver and tour guide was wonderful and professional. Keep us safe while drive us to the days event. Driving the island was so much fun seeing the other side of the island. It was my first experienced snorkeling and decide to come back to Aruba again hoping to have Jeff as our tour guide and driver:. His partner Jason was wonderful and cheerful who has historical knowledge of the island. He keeps us informed every steps of the way. Love their attitude! Will be visiting arid again, sometimes next near.

5.00My grandson who is 9 yrs of age, loved it. Full day of water fun. Had the buffet for lunch which was good. Facilities were clean. Only negative was not being told more specifics in the redemption center. Went to the Holiday Inn, front desk said they moved to the Radisson Blue, went there told to come back the following day. Upon our return was told that I had what I needed and they no longer do any redemption.

5.00Beautiful island. Many workers are working really hard to keep the place clean regardless areas you’re in. I personally don’t do many activities but there are plenty to keep you entertained for all day. Plenty of food and drinks! Bring your water shoes! There are turtles, beautiful flamingos and beautiful views

Beautiful Experience with Friendly Staff, but Be Prepared for Hidden Inconveniences
Nicole E,May 6, 2026
- Review from Viator
3.00We booked this experience to celebrate my birthday and had an overall pleasant time, with both highlights and notable drawbacks. The staff was friendly, welcoming, and helpful throughout our visit. The snorkeling was enjoyable, and my massage was a relaxing highlight of the day. However, one major inconvenience was that towels are not provided unless you reserve certain accommodations, such as a cabana. This is important information that was not clearly communicated beforehand and can be especially frustrating given the island’s water-focused activities. Guests should plan to bring their own towels or be prepared to purchase them at the gift shop, where prices are quite high. We did purchase a floating cabana onsite since other options were sold out at the time of booking, and having a cabana is something I would recommend for added comfort. It’s also worth noting that all three beach areas were very rocky and shallow, which made swimming less enjoyable. Water shoes are highly recommended for comfort and safety. While I’m grateful for the experience and enjoyed certain aspects of the day, I personally would not return. In comparison, the beaches at our resort were far more enjoyable, with better swimming conditions and overall comfort.
An Adventure indeed!

4.00I would rate this experience a good 8/10. I am a frequent solo traveler so the time of travel matters to me. This is first week of May 2026 and the island wasn’t overcrowded. Definitely have access to the flamingoes, don’t pay separately for that, it’s included. Water park is a great adventure for kids. And no insects biting you around. The pros for me: Learning to dance salsa with other people (led by one of the staff @1pm) was a bucketlist check off for me! The foods at the restaurants tasted good and there were varieties of options especially at the mirmara restaurant. Also, loved seeing the animals (flamingoes and tortoises). The boats and buses are always available to take you back and forth. Don’t miss your pickup and drop off times tho! Restrooms are decent. Staff is very friendly (I especially appreciate Ms. Sol and Aisha) Bring swimsuits for water activities. The downside for me: having birds frequently flying over the tables at the restaurants. Overall, it was a packed day, sun wasn’t uncomfortable as it was breezy, and I got two naps in just by laying at the beachside on the beach chairs. I did not pay for the cabanas but I sure paid $50 for a 20min back and foot massage (10min for each) and I loved it! I will be back :)
