1. International VIP Lounge (Gate 8)

There are two International VIP Lounges at Aruba airport, one at Gate 2 and one at Gate 8. Both are airside and both are Priority Pass lounges. One is located by the US departure gates and one located near the international departure gates.

The lounge at Gate 8 is in the international area and this is a very small and busy VIP Lounge with sofas and tables for eating and drinking. Wifi is available for free too. Food on offer includes ham, tuna and turkey rolls and wraps, chicken soup, muffins, crisps, and fruit.

This VIP Lounge has plenty of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The lounge attendants serve you alcoholic drinks which are mainly beer and wine.

2. International VIP Lounge (Gate 2)

The International VIP Lounge at Gate 2 is also located airside on the 1st Floor. Again, this is accessible with your Priority Pass and is located by the US departure gates.

The lounge is pleasant to look at and has free Wi-Fi. The food in this lounge is not great with crisps, peanuts & rolls. Much like the other lounge, the rolls are ham, tuna, and turkey, there is chicken soup, muffins, crisps, and fruit. This VIP Lounge has plenty of both alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages. The lounge attendants serve you alcoholic drinks which are mainly beer and wine.

Both of these lounges are small and fairly basic. They are certainly not worth paying a fee use, but if you get access for free with your Priority Pass, then they are pleasant spaces to sit and wait for your plane.
