De Palm Island

Experience De Palm Island, Aruba's only all-inclusive destination on a unique private island offering all-inclusive fun.


It is clear that Aruba is the best Caribbean island for families! There are so many perks that come with signing up for the One Happy Family programme, even the best Caribbean resorts for families wanted to be a part of it! Every family deserves to spend some quality time together to just have fun.

What better way to do so than by scheduling in some Caribbean family time in Aruba every once in a while? Not only is Aruba the best island for Caribbean holidays for families, but we are also proud to declare that Aruba is the best Caribbean island for kids specifically.

 

Between all the fun activities and the VIK Passport, kids won’t ever want to go back home.
