Arends welcomes explanation of registration process
An Aruba rental meeting with the minister provided more clarity on the new approach to Airbnb and other tourist accommodation, Elton Arends told 24ora. He said questions had followed the earlier announcement, particularly about registration and bringing investment properties into compliance.
Procedures and city-centre investment discussed
Arends said business representatives support clear regulation rather than opposing it. The discussion focused on Oranjestad, with San Nicolas also covered by the approach. He raised the time needed for government procedures compared with investors’ development schedules. His account expresses a stakeholder’s response to the meeting; it does not establish new legal exemptions or announce that all outstanding questions have been resolved.
