Scheduled for the crystal kayak with drone photoshoot. The photographer was late and the kayak instructor was not sure when he would arrive so he set us up and sent us out in the water to kayak. Almost an hour later the kayak instructor tells us that the drone photographer has arrived at which point we told him we don't need his services anymore because we were leaving for our next event. When got off the kayak we were harassed by the photographer as well as the supposed owner on the phone.

Website pics nicer than in person but overall we had a great day relaxing, swimming, and paddle boarding. The cabana was not cleaned out from previous use (used drinks and glasses and not wiped down). Very nice host. Very cute crab lives next to the steps.

We had a great experience renting out the crystal kayaks. The owners are very sweet and served us homemade iced tea afterwards. They were super friendly!

Our paddle boards were in good condition. The attendant (Quentin?) was helpful and gave us short instructions even though it was not included in the rental package. The only down side is their limited hours of operations.

We really enjoyed ourselves in our 1 hour SUP session, we were greeted by the instructor and after the session we had some mango from his garden and a refreshing drink ( great way to end it )

The service was excellent - very responsive to my email question, met us with the kayaks, paddles, etc all ready and in very good condition. Quinton was very friendly and helpful. The location is great with easy access. You could see well through the bottom of the kayak. I will definitely use Island Cabana again in the future. What you should be aware of before booking a kayak is that you are instructed to stay within the swimming bouys in front of the hotels. Quniton explained that this is for safety reasons as there were a lot of trucks and trailers unloading boats, jet skis, etc right beside us. Quinton was right: it is best to stay out of their way. In addition, the winds can quickly blow you if you venture further north. So much for my plan to kayak toward Tres Trapis. We did go during the Hi Winds tournament, perhaps at less windy and busy times venturing elsewhere would be an option. If that is your plan and you will be disappointed otherwise, I would ask before booking. Although we could not go where we initally hoped, we enjoyed seeing the beach and hotels from the water and watching all the kite-surfers. It was a relaxing way to get out on the water. :)

I'm staying downtown at Renaissance, do you have pickup service? As a cab ride will probably cost me $20 each way

Sorry we do not offer transportation to and from the Renaissance. The least expensive way of coming to us is by public transportation. The main bus stop in Downtown (Oranjestad) is just a 5-minute walk from Renaissance.

Hi Ronda,
Thank you for your interest in SUP ARUBA!
Yes, you may paddleboard standing up, kneeling or sitting.
We look forward to have you paddleboard with us.
Is this appropriate for a 9 year old?

Thank you for your interest in Stand Up Paddle Aruba!
We don't have a minimum age, if a child is too small or not strong enough to paddleboard on his/her own, he/she can join an adult on their paddleboard.
