TravelTalkOnline Forums Travel and Vacation Forums Southern Caribbean Will be our first time to Aruba

We'll be renting a 4br villa/condo and have cars. Hope to be a short walk (5-10 min) or quick drive to a nice beach.
Are there areas/neighborhoods to recommend? To avoid?
Do beaches have bars/restaurants that rent chairs and umbrellas like Orient and Mullet on SXM?
Thank all.

Try EAGLE BEACH!!!!! Hotels, timeshares have bars and restaurants ! Great for breakfast, lunch and dinner..Also try BABY BEACH!! Beautiful water and beach bar..ENJOY!!!

I was told Marriott Stellaris Casino, but $$$$$$$$ omg! Been years since we've been, but thought we'd go back, yikes! Back then 35 years ago stayed at Americana, but no longer there...was a great stretch of high rises w/beach bars, etc. Now where? wow.

Week #2 Costa Linda is what I want! Aruba
