All beach in Aruba are public and have no private beaches. There’s a piece of land that’s private and it’s also marked as where privacy ends, For example, the houses in Malmok have their own land, but the white beach is public land. Prime Minister Evelyn Wever Croes is aware of the controversy over a beach for the hotel, but hotels ask for “precario” and that’s for their tourists, but that doesn’t make the beach public. According to Prime Minister Evelyn Wever Croes, you can theoretically have two Palapas under the Palapas, it’s only tourists who can use it because they pay for it, but if between the Palapas there’s room for someone to use, there should be no problem. The President is aware that there are constant tensions between the hotels and the public, but the intention is not to cause tensions for tourists, but the hotels must also understand that the beach remains public.
