The house is 3 minutes walk from the bus stop, which you have a time schedule at your door of your room. There are lizard's gecko's iguanas Island frog's and several birds in the garden a little of Aruba's wild life which you can take pictures off.
It will be an honor having you at one of my properties. I was born and raised on these sugar white beaches, turquoise blue Caribbean waters with year around sunlight no rain and no hurricanes. Drink Coconut Rum, dance Macarena get drunk and die on One Happy Island. My name is Herbert and once I host you, you will feel the Aruban "Sheitu". I like to socialize in the morning sharing a cup of organic tea fresh from the garden and making your stay pleasant on Aruba by listening to you and how I can make that happen for you. How to do things on the Island, where and when to visit those places, those questions which are important to you, I will be there in the morning to help you out. If you like to have information on certain activities before getting to Aruba, I will arrange those for you by simply le tin me know in advance.
Aruba Backpackers is 3 minutes walk from the bus stop, which you have a time schedule at the door of your room. You are surrounded with Supermarket, Laundromats, Restaurants Pastry shops Car Rentals a Gym Beauty Parlor Fishing charter and Shopping Malls
