Eleven top journalists from the US graced the island with their presence just recently including writers from magazines such as Maxim, Private Air Luxury Homes, O – Oprah’s Magazine, Canadian Family, Women’s Adventure, Men’s Journal and Lee Abbamonte, who is the youngest American to visit every country in the world.

The group enjoyed unique activities such as working out on the beach with General Manager Mark Frances on Saturday morning, followed by a stand-up paddleboard session and a bike ride to Arashi Beach. That same day, the resorts also hosted a luncheon party at the Sunset Grille Restaurant and a Carnival-themed farewell party on the beach on Sunday, with brass band and Carnival dancers, culminating with a fire show.

Press members agreed that their favorite portion of the Aruba trip, was their visit to Larimar spa, where they appreciated a prestigious new product line, and treatments, by world-renowned ESPA brand, made with all-natural ingredients. Most of the dignitaries also paid the Casino at the Radisson a visit, and lounged poolside and on the beach, between island tours, and visits to Arikok National Park, the Aruba Aloe Factory, and De Palm Island, among other interesting spots.

In order to produce the long, fun-filled Aruba weekend, the resort partnered with the Aruba Tourism Authority, and the Aruba Convention Bureau, successfully showcasing the island to the writers who will spread the word on how special their experience was.
