Manchebo Beach Sunset Proposal


The location will be at Manchebo Beach in front of the Elements Restaurant. Manchebo Beach is the ideal location for a sunset proposal, offering breathtaking views and a serene ambiance. Unlike busier beaches, Manchebo is known for its peaceful atmosphere and fewer crowds.

I. Taxi or Rental Car

Taxi: You will ask the driver to bring you to Elements Restaurant. He will drop you off right at the entrance of the hotel. Most likely the security will ask you if you are there for Elements and you will walk straight through the hotel towards Elements Restaurant.


Rental: You can park at the parking, like show above on the drone image. If a security will walk up to you, just tell them you have a reservation at Elements.

II. How to recognize me

If you walk the line like shown above, you can't miss me. When you walk the beach a bit you will see me sitting on the beach with a blue cooler next to me. You can do the proposal right in front of me, or a few steps later, I will be ready with the camera.

III. Send me a message

Please send me a WhatsApp or iMessage before the day of the proposal. It would be nice for me to know how you look like or what you will be wearing walking over the beach, so I can keep an eye out as well. And if anything happens, we can contact each other.

WhatsApp/iMessage: (Aruba) +2976305412.

reserve or lie

Elements Restaurant

There are 2 ways to make this easy and not raise suspicion, so she won't expect a thing about the proposal. The first way is that you make a reservation at Bucuti & Tara Restaurant for a Romantic Dinner.

Second way is to just lie, and tell her you made a reservation at Elements Restaurant, and afterwards you have different plans.
