charless (Student) Housing in Aruba is tighter than people expect when they're researching from home. Start looking at least two months before you arrive. Units near the school go fast.
bmitchell (Student) Different experience than charless though. A lot of students rent in the Noord area or close to Palm Beach. It's a bit of a drive from the school but the options are better and prices are more reasonable.
[deleted] Agree with bmitchell on this. Splitting a place with a classmate is almost mandatory on a student budget in Aruba. Solo apartments are pricey and you end up isolated anyway. Find a roommate early.
abigail.barker (Student) The school has a list of approved housing vendors but the real intel comes from current students. Post in the Facebook group or student WhatsApp and someone will have leads.
jasonbissessar (Alumni) Be careful about paying deposits before you've seen the place in person or at minimum gotten a video call walkthrough. A few landlords take advantage of incoming students.
devonr (Alumni) Utilities are not always included in the rent on Aruba. Water bills can be surprisingly high on island. Factor that into your monthly budget before you sign anything.
