Are Groceries Expensive in Aruba?

Groceries in Aruba can be more expensive than in the mainland United States or Europe because many products are imported.

However, prices vary considerably by supermarket, product and brand.

To save money:

• Compare supermarket specials.
• Choose locally available alternatives where practical.
• Buy larger quantities of water and snacks for longer stays.
• Use smaller convenience stores for quick purchases rather than relying on them for every grocery trip.
• Compare grocery delivery costs with the transportation required to shop in person.

There is no single supermarket that is cheapest for every product.

Can You Get Groceries Delivered in Aruba?

Yes. Grocery delivery is available to many hotels, villas and vacation rentals.

Super Food offers online grocery shopping with delivery and pickup options.

GroceriesToGo Aruba

GroceriesToGo provides grocery delivery to hotels, resorts, Airbnbs and vacation rentals.

Ling & Sons also identifies GroceriesToGo as a grocery delivery partner.

Should You Rent a Car for Grocery Shopping in Aruba?

You don't necessarily need a rental car just to buy groceries.

If you're staying in a resort, you can use grocery delivery or take a taxi for a larger shopping trip.

However, a rental car can be convenient if you're staying in a villa, cooking regularly or planning to explore different parts of the island.

You can also book guided excursions with hotel pickup, avoiding the need to drive for every activity.

If you're planning a supermarket stop after landing, consider how you'll get from the airport to your accommodation.

A shared airport shuttle may be convenient for participating resorts, while a private transfer can offer more flexibility for families and travelers staying in villas.
