Nice Caribbean Beach
May 2022
I am glad we arrived early so we were able to get a tiki hut and had to rent chairs for $10 each. It was a nice sandy beach and the water was very calm. Once the tiki huts are full, people were able to also rent an umbrella with their chairs. We walked over to the beach bar to get something to drink. Be prepared for a long wait if you order food and it was $1 to use the restroom. Transportation to and from the port was very easy - $5 per person each way.

Nice sandy beach with calm waters but very crowded!
Apr 2022 • Couples
This is the most visited beach in Aruba where the most important hotels are located. It has calm waters and sunsets are great as they are also on Eagle beach. It is the most expensive area of Aruba since here you will find the top restaurants and hotels. We did not spend too much time on Palm Beach because we enjoyed Arashi and Eagle Beach much more. We ate at Lola Taqueria when we visited Palm Beach. Due to the high number of tourists staying on Palm Beach it can get very crowded this is why we did not spend so much time here.

The beach is calm with crystal clear waters and white sand.
Jan 2022 • Couples
It is the beach where Aruba's great hotels are located.
Each hotel puts up a tent for its guests and has a bar and restaurant service. The beach is calm with crystal clear waters and white sand. There are some speedboats that rent services to tourists, but they don't bother..
To the south it connects to Eagle Beach and to the north with the beach.de Hadicurari where there is Kitesurfing

Overcrowded beach
Jan 2020 • Couples
We visited Aruba for first time on cruise not impressed nice beach but overcrowded like being on a med beach in high season.Really expensive compared to every other Caribbean island totally commercialized more like Miami then Caribbean. I was looking forward to this island but will not be rushing back no Caribbean feel at all if you like your jungles concrete and want Wendy’s and Taco Bell and people packed like sardines on the beach your love palm beach if you want a Caribbean island experience this is not it (eagle beach better) this is the Caribbean in name only

Octopus
Apr 2022
I enjoyed my trip in Aruba last week very much and tried several different adventure and water activities. In my experiences on the island everyone is always very friendly and helpful. I met some lifelong friends there, which is one reason I keep returning. This trip I met a new friend, Jose, who works at Octopus hut by Pelican Pier. He was super friendly and wowed us with his magic tricks as well. I was inquiring about the DePalm tour and was looking to book it, but was not sure if I would make the times available due to covid testing. There was another woman there at the time, Alina I believe, and I asked her a question about it. She was very rude in her response to me and did not really answer the question I had. I also saw her yelling and being rude to Jose, who I believe was in training at the time. I thought it was very unprofessional to do in front of customers. Another day I went by and heard her belittling him in front of customers again, so I just walked away. Later that evening, I ran into Jose getting food and he apologized for her. I did not end up booking there, however, I may have if I did not witness that. Everything and everyone else on Palm Beach and in Noord were amazing! Jose was wonderful!

My Happy Place! Paradise
Sep 2020 • Solo
One of the best beaches in the world!! I’ve been to Aruba 3 times and it’s always an amazing time and keeps improving with each visit. Go to Bugalowe Beach Bar!! Gelatissamo for ice cream! Watersports with Coco or GeoWaterSports! I travel solo each time and make friends—no need to rent a car. Now you can rent scooters and bike locally, but you can walk the entire palm beach strip in 35 mins tops! If you like high end shopping, bring cash for the luxury stores at the mall—Louis Vuitton—tax free ! Nice selection of souvenir shopping as well. All of the restaurants and bars have been good. My favorite is sunset grille at the Hilton. Also check out Kadushi Juice Bar $6 all natural juices between the Hyatt and the Hilton resorts on the beach strip

Fine White Sand
Jan 2020
The beach was very nice. Surprisingly, the sand doesn't get burning hot. We were there when the waves were close to 2 ft and then when there was very little wave action. If you have small children, they should have some sort of vest when the waves are in the two foot range. The only down side are the umbrella vendors. A little excessive on the cost, one umbrella and two lounges was 60.00 US, regardless how long one used them.

Beautiful beach, activities and shade!

We lived our few times during the week we relaxed on Palm Beach. Did a Dolphin Catamaran snorkeling tour, shopped, ate on the pier, saw the sunset and ate lunch at Passions. Plenty of places to get drinks or ice & water.

Too many people
Dec 2019
My first visit to Aruba and I visited Palm Beach. I was trying to windsurf at this location, but there were too many kitesurfers who didn't understand the etiquette of kiteboarding. Why are they also allowing them to teach right off the beach? Force them to teach at least a few hundred feet away from the beach so that the windsurfers can have some path to get back in or out. Even the beginner windsurfers were easy targets. There were numerous times where I also saw a windsurfer almost get hit by a kiter. It was like that game whack-a-mole. It'll only be some time before someone gets wrapped in kite line or get slammed by one of those kites.

The boat traffic was insane. Most without spotters.

There is also the problem with garbage on the beach. Vacationers and locals too lazy to pick up after themselves. Get your lazy butts off the beach chairs and clean up your garbage.

All in all the beach is good.
