In September 2020, Aruba launched the One Happy Workstation program, which allows eligible visitors to stay and work remotely for up to 3 months. The program includes discounted hotel and villa stays (at participating hotels). Many packages include complimentary breakfast, free wi-fi and other perks. The program is currently open to US nationals with a valid US passport who are employed by a company in their home country or self employed.

Currently, visitors to Aruba are required to purchase Aruba Visitors Insurance. The cost of the insurance is very low. It is advised that you also purchase travel health insurance that covers medical evacuation for COVID-19 and other medical emergencies in the event that you need a higher level of care. The US State Department wrote, "Access to quality medical care is limited in Aruba, and facilities may not offer the health and service standards typically expected in the United States. We strongly recommend supplemental insurance to cover medical evacuation. Critically ill patients requiring services unavailable in Aruba are transferred to neighboring countries, such as Colombia, at the patient's expense. If medical evacuation is authorized by the patient's insurance carrier or funded privately (approximately $15,000 - 25,000), patients can be transferred to the United States."
