Driving directions from Queen Beatrix International Airport:
Take the main road out of the airport towards Oranjestad. After Oranjestad, this highway curves into JE Irasquin Blvd. The resort is on the left side of the road in the high-rise area.

Getting there:
There is no shuttle service from this airport so taxis are the best way to arrive. Fares range from $16 - $25 USD and rental cars are available online. Arubus public buses run from across the road from the airport to the main terminal in the Oranjestad dock area where a transfer onto Bus #10 or #10A takes passengers to the hotel area. There is an Arubus stop in front of the resort. Fees are subject to change without notice.

Getting around:
Buses run from next to the hotel into downtown for fares of less than $5; taxis range from $5 - $15 USD. Bicycles can be rented for $16 - $25 USD a day and mopeds for more than $36 USD a day. Fees subject to change without notice. Because main roads are well-maintained and well-posted, driving (right-hand side) is a popular option.
