Furthermore, we offer you a number of extra services to make your stay on the One Happy Island Aruba even more enjoyable.
If you indicate what services you would like before your stay, we will be happy to provide them.
We will happily pick you up from the airport at a 15 minute distance from our holiday accommodation, if you so wish. If you provide us with your flight number and your arrival time, we will be waiting for you at the airport when you land. With a fresh water in the car we will drive you to Elements of Aruba, where we will personally welcome you. This makes your trip to Aruba quite a lot more relaxed. For your departure we of course also drive you back to the airport (30 USD / 25 euro per ride)
We definitely recommend you to rent a car during your stay on Aruba, because it gives you the freedom to discover all the beauty the island has to offer. We have good experiences with Hotwheels Car Rental, for their reasonable prices and good service. You can arrange with Manuela, owner of Hotwheels, that they deliver the rental car at our location. This is particularly useful when you arrive late and you let us pick you up from the airport. We can also make the reservation for you. We have private parking spaces for our guests next to the apartments.
Especially for guests who arrive later in the afternoon or in the evening, who want to enjoy a welcome drink with us and who want to go to bed early after a long day of travel, who want to go to the supermarket the next day to fill their fridge on their convenience or who have to wait for the delivery of their rental car (usually around 11 am), we have a ‘First Day Breakfast Service‘: a healthy and tasty breakfast from a delicious bowl with yogurt, fresh fruit, oatmeal and honey and a fresh cup coffee or tea.
Before you go to sleep we will let you know what time we will bring your breakfast to your apartment. Please order before arrival ( 9 USD / 7,50 euros per person).
You can make beautiful hikes along the North coast of Aruba. Ineke loves to make her favorite hike with you through the varied and rugged landscape from the Rancho Daimari to the Natural Pool in the Arikok National Park. You come to places where you yourself do not come easy. If you bring your swimsuits and water shoes or bath slippers, you can also swim in the Natural Pool. Departure around 8.30am and around 1pm you are back on Elements of Aruba (incl. transport: 30 USD / 27,50 euro p.p., Ned/Eng-speaking).
Cycling on Aruba has yet to become a common sight on Aruba, but mountain biking already is, because the landscape lends itself for the sport excellently. More than 200 kilometers of marked trails have been plotted. You must be a somewhat experienced mountain biker to be able to ride through the cacti on the technical trails. Frank takes you along the most beautiful routes for an intensive but fascinating trip to see the most beautiful spots (incl, transport / rent mountainbike: 85 USD / 75 euro p.p., Ned/Eng-speaking).
Aruba & Yoga is a perfect combination. The circumstances in Aruba are extremely suitable to feel the benefits of Yoga practice. Imagine following a yoga class in a studio with max. 10 people. The windows and doors are wide open, you feel the wind on your skin, you hear the rustling of the palm leaves and the tropical birds, you feel like being in the middle of nature. Ineke loves to take you to her Yin Yoga & Meditation class at JetYoga (duration: 1 hour, incl. Transport: 14 USD / 12.50 euros per person, Dutch / English speaking).
If you would like to have a private tour around the island, guided by us, to see places where you would otherwise not go as a tourist or to hear stories about Aruba that you won’t find in tourist guide books, book an island tour for a half day/day. We will make sure your impression of the lovely Aruba will be unforgettable (duration: 4-8 hours, incl. transport: from 60 USD / 50 euros per person, Dutch / English speaking).
Surely you will want to enjoy the ‘Elements of Aruba’ as much as possible during your stay, the many beautiful things that Aruba has to offer. We have collected a number of tourist hotspots for you.
But of course this is pale in comparison to the impression and experience you’ll have when you’re actually going there. You better experience Aruba in real!
