The Property — Pc 67h
Pc 67h is a functional 3-star base in Savaneta with a quiet, residential feel. The lobby is simple and clean, with a small reception desk and a few chairs — no frills, but the staff are direct and efficient. It suits budget-conscious travellers who plan to spend most of their time on the island’s beaches or exploring, rather than lounging at the hotel. The USP is its location near Savaneta’s fishing pier and waterfront restaurants, making it a decent choice for a no-fuss overnight stop.
Chronicles of Savaneta
Savaneta, settled in the early 1500s, served as Aruba’s first capital under Spanish rule and retains a laid-back fishing-village character. Its architecture is a mix of old coral-stone houses and modern bungalows, with little of the high-rise development seen in Oranjestad. The town was a key salt-export point in the 18th century, and remnants of plantation-era structures remain along the coast. Today, Savaneta is known for its local seafood shacks and authentic Aruban pace — a quiet counterpoint to the tourist strip. Culturally, it holds onto a strong sense of community, with weekend flea markets and carnival events keeping traditions alive.
Best Time to Visit
Full Savaneta guide →Best months
May and June — sunny weather with fewer tourists than the winter peak, and hotel rates begin to drop. September is also good for fewer crowds, though it can be a bit hotter.
Peak / festival surge
Peak runs from December to February, driven by winter sun-seekers and Aruba’s Carnival (January–February). Hotels in this period often sell out, with rates at their highest, sometimes double the shoulder-season prices. Christmas and New Year are particularly busy.
Budget shoulder season
September to November offer the best value: rooms at Pc 67h can be 30–40% cheaper than in peak season, weather is still warm (around 30°C), and the island is less crowded. Watch for occasional rain in November.
Weather & packing
Aruba lies outside the hurricane belt, so severe storms are rare, but you’ll get quick tropical showers especially between October and January. Pack a compact waterproof jacket and always carry a light sweater for evenings when the trade winds drop.
Live City Briefing — Savaneta
- The new Queen Beatrix Airport terminal extension opened in early 2025, improving check-in flow but expect longer security queues at peak times.
- Several waterfront restaurants in Savaneta, such as Zeerover and Kamini’s Kitchen, remain popular but check their schedules as some close on Mondays.
- The Aruba Birding & Nature Tours programme recently launched a guided walk around the nearby Spanish Lagoon — book ahead for a quiet, educational outing.
Your Perfect Room
✨ AI-generated · Jul 2026Before you check in to Pc 67h, here's what to know about choosing the right room.
Best rooms to request
Request a room on the first floor (or lower ground if available) facing away from Pos Chikito. The address is a residential side street in Savaneta, so back-facing rooms minimise occasional passing car noise and get more shade from the tropical afternoon sun.
Rooms to avoid
Avoid any room directly overlooking Pos Chikito at front of hotel; the narrow road funnels moped and delivery truck noise in mornings. Also skip rooms immediately adjacent to the lobby or reception – often near a small bar or kitchenette that can hum until late.
Best views
From the address at 67H on Pos Chikito, the best view is of the quiet, palm-lined residential street and glimpses of the Bucutiweg area beyond. No ocean view from this side road; request a room with a small garden or courtyard outlook if available.
Quietest floors
First floor (ground level) rooms on the rear side are quietest. In a 3-star Neighbourhood Inn in Savaneta, rooms are typically in a single-storey wing or two-storey block; upper floor (if exists) would be quieter but no lift data suggests minimal vertical noise issues.
🔊 Noise notes
Pos Chikito is a local road in a quiet Savaneta neighbourhood, but expect occasional early-morning traffic from residents heading to work and late-night scooters. The hotel may have a small bar or communal area – aim for a room away from that. No lift means quieter foot traffic but some stair clatter if any second floor exists.
Insider tips
1. Park on the side of Pos Chikito away from the hotel entrance to avoid engine noise near your room. 2. Check in early afternoon to request a back-facing room – the reception staff may hold one if you ask specifically by phone a day before. Avoid booking through third-party sites that lock you into a standard front room.
- Call the hotel directly 24–48 hours before arrival and ask for a specific room type
- Add a note in your booking comments field
- Ask at check-in — front desk staff can often accommodate if a room is available

Money & Currency
Get a travel card →Aruban Florin, AWG
Use bank ATMs for the best rates; avoid the currency exchange booths at the airport or tourist shops as they take a bigger cut.
Major credit and debit cards are widely accepted in supermarkets, restaurants, and larger shops; contactless works at most terminals, but smaller stalls and taxis are cash-only.
Restaurants usually add a 10–15% service charge; if not, tip 10–15%. Taxis don't expect tips unless they help with bags. Hotel maids get US$1–2 per day.
Eat, Shop & Travel on a Budget
Cheap car hire →A small local coffee (often strong and sweetened) from a bakery or snack truck costs around AWG 3–5.
A simple fish sandwich or a plate of rice and beans from a 'snack' truck runs about AWG 8–12.
A main course of grilled chicken or fish at a local lunchroom or casual grill is roughly AWG 15–25.
The main areas for cheap eats are the cluster of snack trucks and small eateries along the main road near the Pos Chikito/Savaneta junction, especially around lunchtime.
Supermarkets like Super Food and Ling & Sons are the main budget chains in the area.
For affordable clothing, head to the big department stores in Oranjestad (e.g., at the Renaissance Mall or along the main shopping street) or to thrift shops in the San Nicolas area.
Local buses ('Arubus') are the cheapest at AWG 2.30 per ride; from the airport take the public bus route 10 (AWG 2.30) or a shared van for AWG 5 into Oranjestad, then change to a bus heading south.
1. Buy groceries and cook in your holiday rental instead of eating out for every meal. 2. Use the public bus rather than taxis or rental cars. 3. Skip the resort beaches and bring your own chairs to the free public beaches like Mangel Halto or Rod Beach.

Top Attractions in Savaneta
💡 Start at the old cemetery on Lagoenweg and follow the painted signs; morning light makes photos less harsh.
💡 Arrive before 9 am for the best selection; they often sell out early. Cash only, exact change helps.
💡 Bring insect repellent at dusk; mosquitoes can be fierce. Best visited just before sunset for quiet reflection.
💡 Go early to claim a spot under the shade of the trees; the current can be strong near the channel, so stick close to the mangroves.
💡 Combine with a snorkel stop at nearby Arashi Beach; wear sturdy shoes as the site is uneven. Free, but a small donation encouraged at the gate.
