"At this tranquil spot in Oranjestad, hundreds of species of butterflies flutter among tropical flowers, groomed gardens, and a Japanese pond, all set beneath gauzy netting. Docents lead tours past rushing waterfalls, crystal-clear pools, and native flowers, sharing their encyclopedic knowledge of the pretty critters. If you’re lucky, you’ll get to witness babies hatching—one of the farm’s biggest draws. For a perfect picture, wear bright colors like yellow and orange to attract the butterflies to your shoulders."

Don't hesitate to try this place! Such a fun and amazing experience. Its so beautiful inside, it is small but still worth the visit. The tour guide is very educational about the butterfly's life cycle. The gift shop is cute as well. Theres a nice patio before you enter where you can hang out and watch the birds play in the bird bath if you'd like before or after the butterfly experience. Your ticket includes revisits and we definitely intend to come back during our stay here in Aruba.

This place was the highlight of my mom and i’s 3rd trip to aruba! The staff is so kind and knowledgeable and the tour walks you through the butterfly process. So worth it to learn more about the 37 species of butterflies living at the farm. They have an adorable souvenir store with some jewelry with real butterfly wings and so many other cool butterfly trinkets. I recommend coming on the earlier side of your trip because a one time ticket purchase gives you access to revisit on your trip for free! They recommend wearing bright colors and citrus perfume if you want a butterfly to land on you!

I’ve been to many other butterfly exhibits (Calloway Gardens, Butchart Gardens, Brookside Gardens) but this was even better. So many butterflies in a beautiful setting with lots of flowers and pond. The pond has fish and a little waterfall. I even went back a second day. It is hot so go early to be a little cooler. People are very nice too.

Stopped here on morning while on my trip to Aruba; it's stunning. Something so "zen" and absolutely beautiful here, the colors, feeling of peace. Tour guide (which wasn't very long 15-30min) was a young guy, super knowledgeable, enthusiastic and entertaining!bought a banana/rum shake of some kind on my way, it was great👌. Highly recommend! Worth the stop!

My husband and I came to Aruba for our honeymoon. We were recommended the Butterfly farm. The staff are incredibly friendly and approachable. As we walked around, a staff member approached us and offered a tour. She was very knowledgeable, super nice and was happy to answer questions. On tour, we saw the entire life cycle of the butterfly (starting with the eggs on the plants, we were able to touch the caterpillars, they have many stations for the cocoons/ chrysalises and of course the adult butterflies). She also showed us the different types of species of butterflies/moths and explained some really cool facts about feeding, breeding, life span etc. Super informative! We would recommend going when it opens at 8:30. It wasn’t super busy and not too warm! The boutique is super cute. We got a few souvenirs. They also offer you a ticket that allows you to come back for free (it’s valid for a one time visit and good for up to a month). They also have a small cafe with drinks so you can feel refreshed too. Would highly recommend! :)

My husband and I visited this wonderful little butterfly farm and spent an hour or two. Very much worth the visit and price of admission. We were given a mini tour with a very informative guide. A lovely gift shop is on site with beautiful handmade butterfly inspired jewelry. Also you pay once and can return as many times as you like while on vacation.

Very knowledgeable guide who gave us an excellent talk at the start. The butterfly farm isn't big but has lots of beautiful butterflies flying around. Worth a visit when in Aruba.

My wife and I came on Wednesday at 1:00pm. It was a nice little butterfly farm. We enjoyed walking around and taking pictures of all the different butterflies. There are different sitting areas around the farm. So you can sit and enjoy watching the butterflies fly around you. The entrance fee was 19 dollars per adult. You can buy yourself a smoothie before going in because it gets hot inside. There is also a cute souvenir store at the entrance.
