The Camper RV setup is cozy you have all you need as a backpacker, All the little details are there as surprise you would not think you would need while making traveling easy. You have an organic garden which you can cut herbs for fresh tea every day.
When you are staying at my house, I like to socialize in the morning sharing a cup of organic tea fresh from the garden and making your stay pleasant by listening to your concerns and how I can make that happen for you. How to do things on the Island, where and when to visit those places, those questions which are important for you, I will be there in the morning to help you out. If you like to have information on certain activities before getting to Aruba, I will arrange those for you. It is easy to catch public busses, your cabin is just 2 minutes walk to the bus stop to Oranjestad or San Nicolaas. Backpackers take 28 minutes to walk from the Airport to our location it is only 3.6 km and you don't hear the noise from airplanes. I have prepared the cabin with the practical things a backpacker needs when traveling. I speak English and Dutch
Cumana is a quiet and safe area. No city traffic noise. You are surrounded by 7 supermarkets ( just to mention a few; CMart Bon Dia, Hua Hing Food center, Exito food center, Wan Jia Le supermarket) within walking distance. There are 5 restaurants and 3 Food trucks where you can lunch or dine at local prices (Carnivorous, Sweet Garden, Casa Vieja, Boeny Orquidea Chez Voole and Daily Dose. You can visit Niki Beach (3,3 km) 35 minutes walking or 12 minutes riding a bicycle. Also 2 shopping malls ( Cayena Mall and San Barbola Mall with laundry facilities. Next door to your apartment there is a Gym (Joe fitness ) and if you love fishing you can book a fishing trip with Boat and Fishing paradise just across your Cabin.
