Things To Do
Eduardo's Beach Shack
One of our favorite spots in Aruba, Eduardo’s Beach Shack is perfect for a delicious and affordable breakfast or lunch. They serve a variety of fresh and flavorful options, including acai bowls, smoothies, juices, coffee, poke bowls, tacos, and more. It’s also allergy- and dietary-restriction-friendly, offering gluten-free, vegan, and nut-free options. We love starting our day there or grabbing a quick, healthy lunch so we can save room to splurge on dinner later. It’s a must-try during your visit!
Atardi
Atardi is one of our favorite restaurants on the island! Located at the Marriott, this beachfront spot offers an unforgettable intimate dinner experience right on the sand, perfect for a romantic date night. Our favorite thing to order is the Mahi Mahi and Macadamia Grouper! We highly recommend booking well in advance, as reservations fill up quickly. Be sure to request the earliest reservation time to enjoy breathtaking sunset views while you dine. It’s an experience you won’t want to miss!
Lima Bistro
Lima Bistro isn’t just my favorite spot in Aruba—it’s one of my top restaurants in the world. The food is incredible, with fresh, creative dishes that blend Latin and international flavors. The waterfront setting makes it even better, creating the perfect atmosphere for an unforgettable meal. If you’re looking for an amazing dining experience, this is it!
Driftwood Restaurant Aruba
Driftwood is a great spot for fresh, locally caught seafood in a laid-back, authentic Aruban setting. The fish is caught daily by the restaurant’s own fishermen, so you know you’re getting the freshest meal possible. If you’re a seafood lover, this is definitely a must-visit while in Aruba!
Brutto Aruba
Brutto is a great spot for dinner and drinks before heading out for the night. The vibe is fun, the cocktails are top-notch, and the menu has a mix of sushi, seafood, and other delicious bites. It’s a great place to enjoy a good meal in a lively atmosphere. The handrolls are our favorite!
Craft Coffee & Bar
If you’re looking for a great breakfast spot, Craft Coffee & Bar is a must-visit! They serve delicious coffee, tasty brunch options, and—best of all—$20 bottomless mimosas. It’s the perfect place to start your day!
Zeerovers
Zeerovers is the ultimate casual seafood spot, serving up fresh, locally caught fish and shrimp right by the water. You order by the pound, and they fry it up on the spot!
Wacky Wahoo's
Wacky Wahoo’s is a small, no-frills seafood restaurant with some of the best fish on the island. The portions are generous, the flavors are incredible, and everything is fresh and perfectly cooked. They don’t take reservations, and there’s always a long line, so make sure to get there right when they open! It’s worth the wait!
