Summary List Placement

Working from a tropical destination is no longer a dream with Aruba-based Boardwalk Boutique Hotel's outdoor "workation" setup. 

Digital nomads became a hot topic lifestyle choice when long-term remote work became a necessity towards the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. As a result, companies adjacent to the travel industry, such as RV makers, started pandering to this "work from anywhere" crowd by adding amenities like desks, internet capabilities, and outlets.

Similarly, hospitality groups and tropical destinations have also started capitalizing on the remote work trend in an attempt to revive tourism. Last year, one of these locations, Aruba, launched the "One Happy Workation" program. Under this initiative, US visitors can stay on the island for three months without a visa.

Boardwalk Boutique Hotel is just one of several Aruba-based hotels partaking in this program, offering both an indoor and outdoor "workation" setup for guests staying in one of the hotel's casitas.
