re: Vacation in Aruba advice

I lived in Aruba for a little over a year for work. The best advice I can give is go to Baby Beach. It's a great place to relax and there's a nice little bar at Rodger's Beach (Right next to Baby Beach) that's not crowded and relaxing. I'd say get a car unless you just want to stay with the crowds around Palm and Eagle beaches. As far as restaurants, or can't miss things to do, Charlie's Bar in San Nicolas is great. The Red Light District is also in San Nicolas and isn't very discreet if your wife has a problem with that.
