Say NO! to the endangerment of the unspoiled nature of Aruba by the construction plans for a hotel near Arashi. Stimaruba is up in arms against hotel construction Stimaruba says that the unspoiled nature of Aruba is going to be endangered by the construction plans for a hotel near Arashi. ORANJESTAD -- Stimaruba, the organization that devotes herself to nature conservation and nature protection, reacted very concerned on the reports about the plans for the build of a hotel near Arashi. The organization points out a publication in February 2006 of Coastal Zone Management, in which is clearly indicated that the area is reserved for recreation. Stimaruba is of the opinion that there are too many hotels in Aruba already. From the plans it appears that there is no end to the build of hotels and condominiums and that is according to Stimaruba, a disappointment for the tourists that come to Aruba to rest and expect good service.

I am honestly overwhelmed by how many of you have stepped up to protect the Arashi area. If we can reach that next milestone of five hundred names it will be much harder for the decision makers to ignore what all of you are saying.

Should have NEVER built the high rises. Aruba has DAMAGED their natural beauty with greed.

The stench from the sewage plant is daily. Government officials should be made to lay on the beach in front of the Amsterdam Hotel every day and experience it for themselves. As for the number of new construction...it is a turn off to tourism and makes me think twice about returning. Shame on the government to allow this...and that includes the build out of Baby Beach.

This year is the first time we have been back to Aruba in about 8 yrs . I’m stunned how much of the natural landscape of moors is gone . There is a waste dumping station on the road near New Amsterdam hotel the stench blows all the way to eagle beach now . The traffic is out of control . It’s really sad to see synchronized a nice island have its country side destroyed from careless overbuilding . Drivers now are full of rage and anger as bad as they are in NY . It was such a nice place before . I’m not sure if we will return the feel is more like Wildwood NJ now than Aruba

Arashi is one of the last quiet spots left on the island. Stop selling everything off to developers before there is nothing left for locals to enjoy.

Too much concrete. The traffic is already a disaster and we dont need another hotel blocking the view at Arashi.
