I've been to Aruba a few times, from 2011 to 2019. Usually we stayed at a place called the Divi Phoenix, which does timeshares. My housemate's Mom has a timeshare there and knows some people, so we've been able to get a room for a week or two here and there. The last time, we all went in on a house, at the upper end of the island, that was right across the street from the water, and that was a great time.
We would usually go in November, although the last time, I think we went in early December. I like it because it's pretty laid back, and the people tend to be pretty friendly. The beaches are nice, and there's some cool places to go snorkeling. And then there's also the "wild" side of the island, where there's no development, and you're often best taking a Wrangler or other 4wd vehicle, but there are still places you can get to, with just a car. The "wild" side of the island seems so desolate, like you could really get lost there, but you're never really too far away from civilization.
Most of the people speak English too, and their driving laws aren't TOO different from the US, so it's not that hard to get around on your own. There's probably more exotic places to go to, but for me, a vacation usually isn't much more than going up to Carlisle PA for a classic car show, so for my tastes, Aruba was pretty cool.
Oh, and as an aside, one year when we were there, I spotted a twin to my '57 DeSoto. Same model (Firedome), same body style (2-door hardtop), quad headlight setup like mine (some of them only had singles, and not all states had legalized quad headlights when the '57's came out), and even the same color (red with a white roof and spear). I wonder what the chances are of seeing the twin, to something like that! I've never seen one that identical to mine, even at Chrysler-specific car shows, yet here was one, out driving on the southern end of the island, down towards Baby Beach, just like an everyday driver.
