YES!!!!!!!! That's what I read. I was thinking about calling ahead and maybe doing a day or two, but not the whole week!!! And I don't want to to feel obligated to ANYTHING while I'm on vacation. You know??? It would be nice to have a place in the shade to have lunch and take a break from the sun, but - I dont know.. we'll see how it goes.

From TripAdvisor: You can book one the day before. The rates depended on which row of palapas you wanted. The first row (closest to the water) were about $57, the second row was $45 and the last row was $37. The prices might not be exact, but are close.
Holy (#*)#*)! - Next they'll charge you extra to use the shower

Start drinking airborne now! Might not be a bad idea to ask your Dr. at home for a prescription of antibiotics to pack. Also I understand you can get antibiotics at the pharmacy in Aruba without a script.
You sound like me. I did soooo much research & shopping for months before we left. Was so excited the last two weeks before departure I couldn't think straight!
Then we arrive & I have ONE good day and spent the other SIX in bed. I was so sick I couldn't even lay out in the sun. The brightness hurt my eyes. Had to keep the drapes closed in the room.
Take care of yourself now! Extra vitamins...whatever! I would hate for anyone to have to suffer like I did.
I'll keep my fingers crossed for you to stay healthy and have a Great Time!!

You are too cute! Thanks so much!!! I slept the ENTIRE weekend and feel like a million bucks. I did take about 14 airbornes and drank so much water and OJ! I am brand new again. I missed the St. Patty's Parade, but I am back and ready to go! Sorry about your trip though! 6 MORE DAYSSSSSSSSSSSSS
