In my last article I gave you my tips on what to see and do in Aruba. The Caribbean island evokes paradisiacal beaches, unforgettable sunsets and pristine places. One of the most famous attractions of the island is Renaissance Island, the private island just a few minutes from Oranjestad where you can see the pink flamingos up close, one of the symbols of Aruba.
Access to the island is granted only to guests of the hotel I will tell you about today, the Renaissance Wind Creek.
One of the reasons for staying in this luxurious Marriott group hotel is precisely to have access to this small paradise on earth guaranteed. Renaissance Island, in fact, is a private property of the hotel and access is guaranteed only to hotel guests and a lucky few who manage to purchase one of the daily passes sold by the hotel. Another trick to access the island is to book a treatment at the SPA Cove.
Renaissance Island has two main beaches, Flamingo Beach and Iguana Beach. The first, as the name suggests, is the beach where you will find the famous pink flamingos. Here you can approach them with treats readily available on the beach (a handful of treats cost a quarter) and take some iconic photos. Be careful not to stress them too much because, although the flamingo is a docile and docile animal, it has the right not to be attacked by hordes of tourists.
Iguana Beach, the other beautiful beach on the island, is instead populated by iguanas, which will discreetly peek out at the guests among the mangroves. The plus for a top stay on the island is to rent one of the cabanas. The cabanas are located on either side of the two beaches and guarantee privacy and luxury for the most demanding vacationers.
To make the most of the island experience you can enjoy the cuisine of Papagayo Bar &. Grill.
But back to Oranjestad and the hotel. The Renaissance Wind Creek actually comprises two properties, the hotel in the Marina, for adults only, within a luxurious shopping center including the casino and the Ocean Suites, with its large swimming pools and gardens, open to families with children .
The entire structure offers a wide range of restaurants and amenities, swimming pools and a high level of service. The rooms, from standard to suites, guarantee every kind of comfort and luxury with a unique design.
For those who don’t give up on sport even on vacation, the facility offers two gyms, both in the Marina Hotel and on Renaissance Island!
Within walking distance of the hotel you will be spoiled for choice for shopping and restaurants. The Renaissance Mall and Renaissance Marketplace will do the trick for you.
To conclude, the Renaissance Wind Aruba Creek Hotel is undoubtedly the hotel to stay, even if only for a few nights, during your trip to Aruba. Access to Renaissance Island and Marriott hospitality won’t disappoint.
