    Let me know how this hotel is! FI and I were going to go there before we decided on St. Lucia, but now are thinking about going there next year for our vacation.

    I'm not sure! The part we are staying in are time share villas, that FI's parents are letting us use. They have a full kitchen, living area and separate bedroom. It's Marriott, but not the "hotel part". I think we use all of their amenities thoug and they have a casino! How funny would it be if we are at the same place!

    In Aruba most if not all the hotels are in a strip...there's a path that goes in front of all of them that we walked on the first time I was there. So you will probably all be very close

    I love Aruba. My family has time share. So I figured I would help you lovely ladies...

    Must do! Kukoo Kanookoo Bus. I probably spelt that wrong. It's a lot of fun. Think Patriage family bus and singing, dancing and bar hoping. 

    Sunset Sail on the pirate ship out of Mumba Beach. Wear a suit and bring a towel to rope swing into the ocean.

    Natural Pool- lots of steps but so worth it for the first timers. 

    There are some great horse back riding places. Best one has ATV's and horses out in the desert. I forget the name. 

    Butterfly farm and the Ostrige Farm. 

    I have a boat load more info if you are looking for anything in particular, feel free to PM me. My grandparents have been going for 25 years, parents for 15 years. I've been 10 times myself and my 11 year old daughter has been there 9 times. LOL!!!!

    I am concerned, have not booked honeymoon yet. I just got a confirmation from my job for our honeymoon. We are getting married in upstate New York on July 21st, 2012. I am looking at going to Aruba. We are looking at going July 24th and returning on July 31st. My fiance just wants carribean water and some place new for the both of us. Does anyone have any advice on where to book. We are looking at spending 3,500 total. Please!!! I am really worried its getting to the point of a mental breakdown, I live in Columbus, and getting married in upstate New York where I grew up. Please send feedback and advice on how you booked. I am looking at booking this weekend Monday at the lastest. PLEASE BRIDES I NEED HELP :) I want to go to Aruba soo bad.
