Hi Everyone,

I am going to Aruba from Canada in December, staying at the Marriott casino hotel. I know that I will be spending a lot of time on the beach at the hotel, but like to get away from all the craziness of the busy area. I would like to spend a day on Baby beach with my family, I have a 10 year old and my husband. I would like to know if you can take a bus to the beach? Is it better to take a taxi and how much would it cost? I would like to be dropped off at 8am and pick up at 2pm. Do you know any taxi driver that you would recommend to do something like that.

I am also thinking about going to the Water Park on De palm island. Is it worth the $300.00 for 2 adults and one kid?

I appreciate all feedback. I spend a lot of time reading this forum opinion, everyone is so very helpful and nice. I hope I am posting my message in the correct section.

The public bus does not go to Baby Beach. You would need to rent a car or take a taxi. A taxi ride would cost $35 each way.

An alternative would be to take the bus to Arashi beach north of the Marriott. Go during the week when it is less crowded and it will be a bit of change of scenery from the Marriott. Be aware there are no facilites there. There are very limited facilities at Baby Beach.

I agree with Arubalisa.

Take the bus to Arashi Beach which is towards the lighthouse.

or

Take the bus to Eagle Beach and enjoy your time there.
