Art & Cultural Heritage
Through immersive experiences, creative expression, and authentic island storytelling, we honor Aruba’s heritage while inviting guests to connect more deeply with the culture, community, and spirit of the island.

Boardwalk Art Collection
At Boardwalk Hotel Aruba, we proudly support local art. Our guest rooms showcase a collection of works by local artists, including smaller pieces created by the Artesano Foundation, which helps rehabilitate prisoners and reintegrate them into society.
Bringing together local art and tourism, the hotel hosts live painting sessions with Aruban artists in the garden and on the beach, showcases their work throughout casitas. Doing so, Boardwalk has gathered a true local art collection representing the heritage of the island of Aruba's current artists.

Art Partnerships & Projects
Our Artist in Residence program invites artists from all disciplines worldwide to stay at Boardwalk, create, inspire and leave behind a legacy. Our first ever residence, Natalie Clements, created a short film about wildlife in Aruba. Watch it here.

Promoting Aruba’s Culture & Heritage
We celebrate Aruban culture and heritage through local architecture, art, music, and cuisine, offering guests an authentic experience at the hotel. But it doesn't stop there, our concierge team knows the best cultural festivals, celebrations, parades and events to fully immerse you in the Aruban culture. Music, dance, food and true Aruban hospitality are often the highlight of these cultural experiences.

Coconut plantation History
Boardwalk Boutique Hotel proudly honors its roots on what was once a historic coconut plantation. We keep the story of this land alive through our social media, blog posts, and the storytelling woven into our garden signs and guest experiences. It’s a true privilege to be located on such fertile, history-rich grounds, and we see it as our mission not only to care for this land but to preserve and celebrate its legacy for generations to come.
