With the health and safety of guests and team members as its top priority, Radisson Blu Aruba is implementing the Radisson Hotels Safety Protocol program.

Additionally, the hotel will offer guests antigen testing on-site for $50 per person.
Since reopening to visitors, the Aruban government’s number one priority is making sure exacting cleanliness and hygiene measures are in place on an island-wide level. Aruba has introduced the ‘Aruba Health & Happiness Code,’ a stringent cleaning and hygiene certification program mandatory for all tourism related businesses.
