Our island has no room left for more hotels, tourism development, or housing. Expanding the hotel sector would also require us to bring in even more workers from abroad. Furthermore, our education and healthcare systems are already stretched to their limits and cannot cope with additional pressure.

Het huidige aantal toeristen is al desastreus voor de natuur van Aruba. Niet nog een verbruiker van onze flora en fauna waarbij ook nog eens de opbrengsten naar het buitenland wegvloeien.

Let space to live. Space to chill. Do not let the tourists take over this Beautiful Island. Full is full… Please do not overbuild

There is very limited accessibility to Natural space and beach front for locals and public. The island is suffering from over crowding, pollution of the land and destruction of wild life. For the surface area of the island, additional building of hotels for private gain out weighs the building of economical homes for islanders. I have come to see the two sides of this tourist trap. We need to reconsider the future of the island, take care of it and its people. No more building hotels.

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.
