sweetnycdesi · Jul 28th, 2007, 07:54 AM

Hey Girls,

Sooo..I am planning on a trip to Aruba in a few weeks..and from my past searches on TPF, seems like Aruba has good prices for Gucci..anyone know what the best hotel to stay at in Aruba and which hotel has Gucci in it?

*Jill - I know you have been there quite a few times - any recommendations on where to stay and are gucci prices there always lower than here in the states?

Thanks a bunch!!!

^The Radisson is OK..The WESTIN was horrid..LOL
personally I adored the Renaisance Marina with its private island...and the food delivered to u on the beach was AMAZING.

It's gonna be just me & my bf and I sent him the info for the Renaissance Marina Hotel...at first he wasn't so sure about the rooms there - are they nice? He was hesitant bc its not next to the beach but when I tell him about the private island I am sure he will be impressed...this is a much needed trip for us so I CANNOT WAIT U HAVE NO IDEA!!!! Gucci & LV here i come ;-)

Renaissance DOES have a beach.across the street at their sister hotel.BUT u wont want to go there...LOL..
Taking a romantic boat ride to your own private island...Laying on a TDF beach with pink flamingos next to u .....They serve u drinks and food and u never have to get up..hehe.Its the BESTEST!!!!!!!!!!!

Did I mention the private boat pulls INTO the hotel lobby to pick u UP?OMG..ITS FAB!The hotel didnt get the best reviews when I went..so I was nervous too.....................guess what???.......I ADORED IT.

Old thread I know...catching up on some old emails today and this brought back memories of my trip in 2005 :) I was there around Memorial Day week in 2005 (same time that that girl went missing) and bought a Gucci bag at that store. The prices were great...about 20-30% off US store prices. I stayed at the Renaissance and loved it. I was there during the Soul Beach Music Festival and the Fugees reunited at one of the concerts. Wyclef stayed at my hotel and so did many of the celebs...they were just chilling out in our lobby at the bar many evenings chatting with folks and taking photos. If anyone else is considering going...I definitely recommend doing the horseback riding that takes you to the edge of the island ...the scenery and views were beautiful and one of the most unforgettable parts of the trip. I did a bus tour also that showed you were various celebs own homes there...like Will Smith and Jada.
