All-Inclusive Caribbean Resort
While the Caribbean is well known for its laid back attitude, in Aruba the party is ongoing.
Many of the fine resorts in Aruba feature casinos and live entertainment. The local dance clubs are filled throughout the night with partygoers.
In the capital of Aruba, Oranjestad, the bars don't start filling up until at least 10 or 11 pm. They stay open until 2 am. The dance clubs are another story.
They typically peak around 2 am and stay open until the early morning hours.
When this is combined with a 24 hour casino, live stage shows, and a tour bus that runs throughout the night, you have the makings of a perfect and exciting night on the town.
There are 11 casinos in Aruba, all of which accept U.S. currency at the gaming tables and slot machines.
The first casino opened its doors in 1959 and each casino that's sprung up on the beachfront offers the casual elegance you'd expect of the Caribbean.
Most of the casinos are open at various stages during the day. Slot machines are typically accessible at 10 am and the card tables open up later in the afternoon.
If you're interested in experiencing Aruba's nightlife, you can ride one of the many party buses that are available.
These nightclub and bar tours are usually conducted in 1957 Chevy buses that have been converted.
These tours typically take partiers to several different hotspots each night.
Each of the tours offer different perks, with most of the packages offering dinner at the beginning of the tour and one drink at each nightclub that's visited.
If you'd rather go clubbing on your own, you can find taxis with ease throughout the evening.
While partying is common, not all the visitors to Aruba are interested in this. Some tourists like to go out on the town but would rather avoid the noisy revelers.
For these people there are plenty of places to relax and sip cocktails.
The relaxed entertainment atmosphere of the Caribbean usually kicks off during the day while lounging at the beach or during happy hour in the early evening.
Once happy hour is over, many people enjoy one world class restaurants that Aruba has to offer.
No matter how you choose to experience the nightlife of Aruba, everyone will enjoy the stage shows that are offered at local casinos and resorts.
One of the best shows in Aruba is called "Let's Go Latin!" This is the largest stage production in the Caribbean, featuring 26 performers and more than 180 distinctive costumes.
This is a show that will thrill guests of every age.
The combination of the Broadway production quality and the upbeat Latin attitude delivers a crisp, modern production that's bound to be in style for some time.
Because the show is very popular, it's a good idea to reserve your tickets a few days ahead of time.
To enjoy a taste of the local cuisine at a great value, consider buying the dinner and show package that offers a fabulous three course meal at the famous L'Escale.
Upon your arrival in Aruba, its helpful to look through the various publications and brochures that are available at your hotel.
You can find out about the upcoming events by checking local publications like K-Pasa, Aruba Experience, and Aruba Nights.
These magazines and English language newspapers are usually available at your resort at no charge.
If you plan on going out on the town, it pays to ask your concierge for transportation, food, and drink discounts.
