Dutch Delights – Aruba & Curacao

About this cruise

You board in Fort Lauderdale on March 7, 2026 for 8 nights visiting Oranjestad, Willemstad and CocoCay, and you come back from this kind of trip wondering why you don't do it more often. You ease into this one, with a few sea days up front to find your rhythm before the 3 port calls start. Clear water and warm sand at every stop. It's the Caribbean, so you probably already know what to expect. Willemstad stands out. It's UNESCO colour against Caribbean blue. Around 12 hours per port on average, which is generous enough to go beyond the obvious. Oasis Of The Seas keeps you well fed. 17 places to eat, with 8 included in the fare and a few specialty spots if you're in the mood. Families and groups will find plenty to do: waterslides, shows, multiple pools, and something for every age. If you can, add a night in Fort Lauderdale before boarding. It's a good city to wander. Timing-wise, spring usually means comfortable temperatures and lower prices than peak season. All in all, it's a solid trip.
