Hamilton Ontario Canada, Coming to Riu Antillas Feb 8. Thanks for the walk around of the St Regis

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Have a wonderful time!

[@code3karch]

Love your videos Hyro. I live in Canada and I have visited Aruba with my family 13 times since 2008. Your updates on the condition of the beaches and the construction progress is much appreciated. The Divi beach has definitely changed several times over the years but remains a favourite along with Arashi and Eagle Beach. I usually stay at the Riu Palace but I have also stayed at the Riu Antillas and the Marriott Resort (Stellaris). I prefer the convenience and location of the Riu but I make sure to sample the dining options outside the hotel like Bohemian, Giannis and Papillion to name a few. Hopefully Gusto returns soon. All the best.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

It sounds like you have explored quite a bit of the island over the years! Thank you also for the recommendations. Cheers!

[@chrispintaric9459]

just booked our 7th stay at RIU Palace for 2 weeks May 26. All I can say is we really love the resort. No matter if you stay at Riu Palace or Riu Antila's which is the adult only resort. You have privileges at both. The pools, the buffet and the drinks at all the bars are all included except the specialty restaurants. The staff are all really helpful and am in touch with some throughout the year. As you know we were just there in November. The hotel is amazing, the food is incredible. I could go on. You can't go wrong with RIU. We have met many people on the beach from all over the world. And many of them have been coming to Riu on many return visits, some 20 or more times. As soon as we get back home, we start planning our next return. The countdown has begun. See you soon!

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes I know you are a big fan of the Riu and deservingly so. It's no wonder they have such a loyal guests!

[@karendykstra]

Im so glad they finished the sidewalk, Hyro.😊

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes, it was about time! Looks very very nice!

[@edithquandus5854]

Beautiful hotel. Nice too see that the watapana is in the garden. Allot of plants ❤️ thats the finishing touch. Drone shots are 👌❤️

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Thank you Edith!

[@Cropsykills]

I recently returned home from your beautiful country. My wife and I celebrated our honeymoon(2 years later 😂) and her birthday. We stayed at the Embassy Suites resort. We fell in love with Aruba and we're still sad we left. We will be coming back. I made friends with a local and we've been chatting daily. He's going to help me learn Papiamentu so when I come back, I can best integrate myself with the locals. Aruba inspired me.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

It's so inspiring to hear you fell in love with Aruba and are coming back! It sounds that you had a great honeymoon even 2 years later. Learning Papiamento, wow Hopi Bon (Very Good!). Hope to meet you one day.

[@jacolen3791]

We stayed at RIU for the 1st time in 2023. Came back in March ’24 and again last month. We were there for New Year’s Eve and had a blast!! Aruba is incredible.We have thought about staying at another resort but the all inclusive is just so convenient when it comes to the meals. The food is very good also.I don’t want to sit and get waited on every time we go for a meal. My time on the beach is so much more valuable.We can’t wait to go back!!!

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Great to hear about your experience and perspective, thank you!

[@juanpablogarciarico7887]

I enjoy all the videos!!! I haven't been to the island for more than 20 years, but I have the desire to go again. It is already another Island, I used to go there when the Cabana Resort was the novelty. Success on your channel.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

The island is definitely a different place now, enjoy your next trip!

[@jakepschirrer9150]

We left Aruba 3 weeks ago today. We miss it so much with this polar vortex here.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Uh no, stay warm!

[@jakepschirrer9150]

@@LetsgowithHyro thanks, man

[@debrastjean4501]

I enjoy watching your videos of the different parts of Aruba. Seeing the beach side of the different hotels is also interesting. It truly makes me appreciate my stays at Lacabana my favorite place in the world. It is so much more intimate than some of these large corporate companies.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes, that is a very special spot indeed!

[@carleanoscarroll]

Oh yes Very nice! ❤❤❤❤❤

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Glad you liked it!

[@bigdog2.016]

Great video. I stay at the Riu anytime I come. It’s the perfect balance of fun and relaxing atmosphere. Food is good and the walk to town is easy and close. Hope to see you. Coming back in march

[@LetsgowithHyro]

See you there in March, it’s going to be a fun month on the island!

[@Tasp01]

Love your videos , I'll be there next Sunday at the divi , been over 25 years since my last and first vist . Looking forward to it

[@LetsgowithHyro]

That's such a long time, a lot has changed. Enjoy your trip!

[@annagags2558]

Miss Aruba so much!🥺 Wish it was affordable like in the good old days.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

I get you :-(

[@larrymcleod5967]

Savannah, Ga ... wish we were there.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Hope you are able to very soon!

[@Rubbertree-r4j]

Hi Hyro ,real nice walk around ,sooo much construction. Been coming since 2008 like you said is what it is,still love it. Hyro i was wondering if you can tell me if your allowed to put up sun shades on beach the ones that stay up using the wind. Hope to run into you guys at Marleens stand 2/5-2/15 Take care....

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Happy to keep you updated. You can put them up as long as it's a logical spot. The big issue as I understand is to not forget the pins afterwards. See you soon!

[@paulhofstede]

Nice!!!

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@lemonpledge4240]

Would love to see more of the bonbini sign dilanti ex Radisson

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Would have to check if it's still there.

[@PerpatowithNV]

Of course we are watching all your videos HYRO! As I hope you are watching all of our KZbin Videos as well... LOL. Well done on the video and as always great information. Maybe we can grab some drinks at the St. Regis when we are back in Aruba. See you soon my friend.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes dear friends hope to see you soon! I was remembering those pickle chips the other day😝

[@johncaceci8656]

I remember when the Antillas was the Westin, and there was a hibachi place we would go to in the tower. I can't remember the name of the restaurant though.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Could it be the Blossoms?

[@johncaceci8656]

@ I think that’s it.

[@AgnesM-q1x]

When will that new resort open?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

I heard soft opening around next week or some time in Feb. Can't confirm but on the site you are able to book for next week.

[@mathemagics4524]

We stayed at the Holiday Inn every time we visited. It's nice, only the pools could be better. It seems St. Regis has a lot nicer swimming pools. However, the beach area isn't looking as good as the stretch of Palm Beach at the Holiday Inn. St. Regis is missing some palm trees if you ask me.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

The beach area is very small and limited. The best beach area might be the Hilton and Riu.

[@mathemagics4524]

@LetsgowithHyro I just looked at it on Google Maps in satellite view also, and it becomes quite obvious just how much wider the beach is at the Riu. It is indeed very limited at St. Regis.

[@jackzelino4698]

I think beach side of St.Regis not so good, I was there few days ago..

[@LetsgowithHyro]

It can indeed be better.

[@livefreeordie3992]

Eagle Beach- best beach on the Island.

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes I got to agree!

[@Pp-zv4or]

finaly a not a new ugly american looking hotel

[@LetsgowithHyro]

We are curious of the finished product. Seems very good so far!

[@funnygal4u2]

Is it this road that you can take to go to the butterfly sanctuary?

[@LetsgowithHyro]

Yes :-)
