Aruba's Boutique Hotels
Not everyone who travels likes to stay in hotels operated by large chains - or even locally based hotels that
cater to a broad base of potential customers. Some travelers are looking for something more quiet, more exclusive,
or something that offers a totally different experience. If this is what you are looking for, here are three
"boutique" hotels to consider -
Aruba Harmony Apartments offers an experience very different than the chain hotels found
in the "high-rise" area of the island. If you would like to find a spot to call "home" in Aruba this just may be
it. Aruba Harmony offers both "Bed and Breakfast" and Studio Apartments, Suites, Grand Suites, and Villas.
All units have kitchens and ach apartment is very nicely furnished. You can find them about 1 mile from
Aruba's airport (they have airport pick-up) close to Eagle Beach (they have transport service to and from the
beach). Finally, Aruba Harmony has wireless service available throughout the facility.

While not directly on the beach, the resort provides shuttle service to the beach and to Oranjestad. You also
can take one of their "4-wheelers" to the beach. The resort prides itself on the services it provides to its
guests. They have a variety of different packages and rates.

Cunucu Arubiano is a very interesting "eco lodge" that is on the opposite side of Aruba
from the typical resorts. Cunucu Arubiano has three free-standing villas modeled after old Aruba-style
homes. The villas are located adjacent to the country's donkey preserve in a very peaceful surrounding. You
can borrow their mountain bikes to explore the nature surrounding the lodge. Beaches like Andicuri Beach are
nearby.

worth exploring if you are looking for an entirely different experience in Aruba.
