We are coming to Aruba for the first time in mid April 2024 and we have been watching lots of UA-cam videos about this amazing island. Yours are the absolute best! Thank you so much for all the time and effort that you put him to making these informative and really unique vids. We will be staying right in the heart of the Palm Beach area and hopefully, we will have the pleasure of running into you while there. We have watched so many of your videos we feel like we already know you and your wife. L O L!
Hope you enjoy it your trip & hope to run into you too. Tomorrow night we are at the Santos Coffee with Soul market from 6-9pm. That's the one at the low rise hotels situated in front of the Casa del Mar resort.
Well done, very good information on the restaurants. As usual your videos are down to earth, and not hyped up. Keep making them and I'll keep watching them.
You have a way to always show the new amongst the usual. We have been coming to the island for many years now but you always keep the viewers up to date. Thank-you for what you do.
Counting the days until January 20, our next visit to your beautiful island. After 7 trips to Aruba I thought we had seen everything but your videos always show me something that we missed!!!
Thank you for taking the time to make these videos. 20 years ago we went on our honeymoon to Aruba, went back 5 years later now we have booked for this year. Oh My how things changed in that time we are going to stay on Eagle Beach but plan on exploring things we found on your channel. Looking forward to seeing more around the Eagle Aruba Resort
Glad you like them! Will try to focus some more on the low rise hotels in the coming month or two so be pending. That area is not as busy and things are not bunched up like in Palm Beach but still a very good choice for an area to stay imho!
Hola. Debo agradecer mucho tu video y la recorrida por toda la zona de Palm beach, ya que cuando fui allí en el 2019 no me había dado cuenta de que existía toda esa zona de restaurantes. Cómo próximamente regresaré a Aruba y gracias a tu video podré disfrutar de conocer y ampliar los lugares a visitar. Por lo que pude observar esa zona que nos mostraste está cercana al Hotel Hilton. En mi viaje anterior conocí la zona cercana al Hotel Holiday inn, pero gracias a tu video tomé conocimiento que hay mucho más a unas pocas cuadras de allí. Qué bueno! Muchas gracias por darnos a conocer lugares nuevos por recorrer. Saludos!
Another Great video! Started at the corner I've come to know well over the years of visiting. Had our first meal first trip at KFC because we knew where nothing was after a late arrival. Pikas Corner is a must now every time (steak&lobster) we come. Nice to see around the High rise but was reminded why we try to stay away (Too many people) 😁Nice for Aruba's economy.
First meal KFC huh... I forgive you for getting in late ;-) haha. I figured, I'd start this one just a bit further up but didn't expect a line at the Wacky Wahoo. Good to see though, it's fairly busy this weekend.
Just ate at Hostaria as you suggested and the food is amazing im Italian and this was amazing. Btw this is Jimmy Ciampa . A1 is my business. Thank you for the suggestion. You and Marlene are the best
When in Aruba back in January 2022, we visited many of these restaurants. Most highly recommended is Wilem's Pancakes (they change to burgers in the afternoon and evening). Their burgers are to die for. So good we went back a week later for seconds. The Indian restaurant you pointed out is exceptional, however the Chinese Restaurant next to it we cannot recommend. It was overpriced and the food was bland. We tried to get into Gianni's but the lineup was too long so we left it to go someplace else. Oh, Smokey Joes was also very good (Chicken & Ribs), Yum! Craft and Lola's also quite good for Mexican style food.
Couldn't agree more to what you said. Some restaurants quality a/o service go up and down unfortunately. I've heard the same feedback from fellow locals and tourists too. I should go for one of those burgers you mentioned though! Thanks for watching!
Correct me if I’m wrong but if you walk east from where you started you’re going to run into different condos that I hope one day soon I want to purchase I hope you take a walk of that area soon!
cool area where you started the video, on the way to Pauline's Apartments and the Buccaneer restaurant. Have all the traffic lights being replaced with roundabouts?, I heard that was the plan a few years back
Thanks :-) Most of the traffic light have been replaced by roundabouts, yes. There are only a handful left. I'm not much of a fan of roundabouts myself but if they help avoid accidents and people loosing their lives then they are sure worth it. Btw I don't see much going on at the Buccaneers. They said they will be back but I doubt it. Thanks for watching!
Hyro, where, close to the Marriott Ocean Club is a great place for good fresh fish. What are the likely species of fresh fish commonly consumed in Aruba? Will be there from Nov 26th for a week.
Hi and Hello! Excellent video! It's been a long time since I was last in the Noord/Palm Beach area. Interesting to see some of the changes being undertaken. Is there really a need for another roundabout? Thanks for showing the location of the Bricks Bay hotel, giving me some ideas and options on places to stay on my next stay( fingers crossed that it can occur before the end of 2022 Had to sit out 2020 due to the you know what) Any chance you could do some videos of the hotels, vacation apartments and condos in the Noord/Palm Beach area? This video was just as enjoyable as your walk from Noord to Palm Beach two years ago. Keep up the great work. Looking forward to the next one.
Hello Vallon! I'm not a fan of the roundabout's and speed bumps so I totally get your point! I've read that the Brickel Bay was bought by the Radisson so maybe it will be more expensive in the future but at least for now it's a decent choice if you prefer to stay in the Palm Beach area. I sure hope you are able to make it for 2022. As for hotels etc. videos you have no idea how many I have approached with little to no (positive) reaction. However no worries, I will keep insisting on them and it's sure something I'd like to do. I'm looking forward to doing the Noord to Palm Beach again with some commentary. Some things have changed in the area so it's sure worth it. Nice that you still remember it! Thanks again for watching.
@@LetsgowithHyro Looking forward to the next Noord to Palm Beach walk with commentary. There was a small grocery a few steps down from CPV, any idea if it is still there? Also what is going on with the Kong Fui building? On my first visit in 2010 I purchased a disposable camera( remember those?)from the grocery store in the building. By the time I returned for my second visit the grocery was closed down. I see that the New Wi-Tai Resturant is still going strong. A friend of mine who is fortunate to visit Aruba two to three times per year really likes their Sunday Barbecue. I mentioned it to him once and he has become hooked. The little plaza next to the gas station used to have a Dunkin Doughnuts and a Little Ceasers. Near the end of my second visit I had a large order of wings from Little Ceasers, and a couple of doughnuts from Dunkin. Fond memories. Looking forward to the next video(s).
Just wanted to say you produce awesome and extremely informative videos. Where or what beach can we find watersports like Sea Doo rentals and Parasailing etc. Is there a particular beach that offers chair rentals, watersports, food and drinks that you would recommend for us to visit?
Happy Flag 🇦🇼 and National Anthem Day🎶 Liking the new updates around the Palm Area shops. I have two questions, #1. Will they ever reopen the Boca Prins Restaurant in the National Park? #2. Do you have an update on the proposed resort over by Baby Beach? Thanks again for all your work, great content as always 👍🏻
Thanks EdC NJ! There is almost no chance they will reopen the Boca Prins Restaurant (sorry to say but heard it from a good source). I miss it too! The construction of that resort is on a stop for the moment because of a case in court. I can't recall the name though right now. My pleasure, enjoy your Sunday!
Awesome video! Can you show the attractions, restaurants, nightlife, and shopping around Eagle Beach or low rise hotels😊 The Palm Beach area looks like a lot of fun🎉
Hi 🙂 I was born and raised on the island of Aruba☺️ I am currently unable to help with vacation planning (until further notice). If you have just a few questions I can try to help.
Hallo, many thanks for your video. Do you know if in Aruba there are places where to dance latin dances such as salsa, reggaeton, etc.? I would like to move in Aruba but I like to dance 😁😁😁
Hi :-) Yes most places here play different kind of music (varied). I think around those bars after the Soprano's Piano bar should be playing latin music. You will not have a hard time finding places.
Thank you for the video:). What advice you have if you want to go from the airport to your appartement? Just take a taxi right away? And how much are the average costs? (A 15 minute ride) To travel by the way on Aruba are busses easy to grab? They are a lot cheaper than taxi's i think:)
Thank you too. Depends on the distance but you can ask before driving away. We don't have taxi meters in Aruba. But yes taking a taxi is still a good idea despite the high cost. See arubataxicompany.com/airport-transfers/ Busses are a good and cheaper way to move around but not so easy to/from the airport.
Hello I have serious food allergies. If I came to Aruba for vacation could I get fresh raw turkey breasts, frozen peas, white rice from the grocery market?
I love your videos. Can i get permission to share these videos to my clients who would like to visit our Condo in Aruba? Perhaps on our website (with your credits).

Thanks :-) so kind of you! I think there were some significant changes I wanted to update you all about. It's a beautiful area to do a walk :-)
Great deal of information. My wife and I are staying at the Hilton and it's nice to see so many options for good eats! Thanks.
Glad it was helpful Bruce, thanks for watching.

Big line for Gianni's... I personally didn't like the food there but is it good to see more people enjoying Aruba
Not a big fan of it either (it's overrated for its location) but nice to see more tourists.
Great video, thank you 👍
So kind, thanks!
I will be there in two days!:) Maybe I will see you around:) haha cheers!! Thanks for the awesome videos!!!
Bon Bini (Welcome) Have fun :-) Stephanie! Hope to see you too, cheers!

Correct me if I’m wrong but if you walk east from where you started you’re going to run into different condos that I hope one day soon I want to purchase I hope you take a walk of that area soon!
Thanks Frank, I sure sure did!
I believe to know which ones. I did a walk here a long time ago but will probably do a re-walk as again some things have changed.
Guiero vicitar a ya en Aruba

Ohhh where were you? I did not notice☺️You should have come and say hi🙂
I wish I would have! We were at Amore Mio Pizzeria.
@@laurarivera61 Awww😏Next time☺️ I hope you had a wonderful time here!?
Coming to the Bucuti in May 2023, do you have a similar walking tour from the low rise area?
Hello Clement, nice to hear from you. Yes I have a few, look for the ones that mention Low Rise hotels, Divi Beach, Manchebo Beach etc.
@@LetsgowithHyro will be looking for you on my holiday. Hope I get lucky. Lol
this should have been 2 hours long! great vid
Thank you :-) so kind...and yes it could have been!

Also can you recommend a nice romantic high end restaurant on the beach that serves steaks and seafood?
The Flying Fishbone situated in Savaneta. Barefoot in Oranjestad. Passions on the Beach at Eagle Beach. Nos Clubhuis/Hadicurari at Palm Beach.
Hello sir
Do you have a video that explains your ties to Aruba? You live there it appears.
Can you help plan vacations etc?
Hi 🙂 I was born and raised on the island of Aruba☺️ I am currently unable to help with vacation planning (until further notice). If you have just a few questions I can try to help.
I suggest u to show other caribbean islands downtown areas too.
If only I had the money to travel often to other islands.
Quiero volver!!!
Bienvenida siempre!
Great video. Would you know if you can purchase beer and drinks and bring back to your hotel. Thank you
Thanks Alex, yes you can 🍻 cheers!
Do they have open markets where natives sell their products
Yes here at the Aruba sign and also at the Seaport Marketplace every Friday.
