Sleeping by the sea

-

Aruba has staked everything on tourism, but has managed not to be dominated by mere profit and to find a perfect balance between luxury and local spirit. This means that the big names of the internatio­nal hotellerie are not lacking, but they are concentrat­ed in one place: Marriott, Barcelò, Hilton, Ritz Carlton are all lined up on Palm Beach, and each one offers a luxury vacation declined according to the style of the hotel. The further you go from this area, the more the names of the structures are less resounding, but no less valid. There are many, in fact, the resorts

and boutique hotels that offer an elegant stay, but that also tell the unique soul of Aruba. For example, there is the Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort, overlookin­g the romantic Eagle Beach, an adults only place where relaxation is assured, especially if you wake up in one of the eleven deluxe rooms with a sea view terrace. An example of modernity, but always respecting nature, is the OceanZ, a delightful 13-room boutique hotel far from the crowd. The windows are the protagonis­ts of the structure, giving the rooms incredible views of the beach and also unique experience­s, such as the shower located on the private terrace, overlookin­g the open sky. With such a beneficial natural setting, even the spas cannot but be of a high standard. One of the most famous of the island is the Spa del Sol, inside the Manchebo Resort: with a typically tropical setting, where among the huts with thatched roofs you can try the many wellness treatments available, also based on the aloe typical of Aruba. In addition, for hotel guests, the spa also organizes early morning yoga overlookin­g the sea.
