Aruba Packing List

Aruba, Bahama.... We are going baby!! If you haven't been here long, a brief history on the fact that we go to Aruba every year. Our trip typically includes the extended Carberry family with my inlaws, but this year it will just be the five of us. Our first family trip just the five us (send help... but also VERY excited). We typically have a bit of a routine in Aruba and stay at the Ocean Club Marriott and eat in some of our favorite spots, spend days at the pool and the beach on repeat. This time we are mixing it up and staying at the Ritz Carlton. So, we are excited to be changing up the routine for going down for the first time just the five of us!

As always, needed to grab a few things for the trip but really tried not to go overboard this time so that we don't overpack. So, some of these I owned already and will be packing and others are new to the crew. We are attempting to only bring two suitcases - a large checked and one carry on for all five of us. One of my biggest tips for going to Aruba is bringing necessities with you because buying them down there can be more expensive than they’re worth.

Packing for five in two suitcases though? Well you will have to jump to Instagram to see how that goes… We will see if it actually happens! Here is the round up of what I purchased for this trip.

  1. Luggage

  2. Silicone Beach Set

  3. Sunglasses

  4. Snack container

  5. Caftan / Cover up

  6. Coverup / Dress for Me

  7. Matching bathing suits for family (that were obviously necessary)

  8. Splash Balls

  9. Passport holder

  10. Carry On for the Family

  11. Swim Tube

Can’t wait to share more from the trip - and be sure to check out Instagram for how the packing goes!

Cheers,
