The project place
Pos Chiquito where trainees live is a local community towards the south of the island, serviced with a supermarket, laundrette, snack-van and DIY stores for household necessities. There is a lovely beach just over 5 minutes’ walk, a local beach bar (frequented by locals not tourists) and three restaurants in walking distance.
The main tourist attractions are in the North of the island around Palm Beach and Noord where there is also a large supermarket (Superfoods) worth the drive for a large weekly shop. The capital Oranjestad is a 15 minute drive or 20 minutes on the bus. The airport is situated 10 minutes from the accommodation.
