About Company
Our Vision & Purpose
We serve as a family-owned gateway to the soul of Aruba, delivering immersive land and sea adventures that blend authentic island hospitality with a deep-rooted commitment to sustainable tourism.
Are We a Match?
You will thrive here if:
You are people-focused and find genuine energy in sharing Aruba’s culture and natural beauty with an international audience.
You possess a high-performance mindset and can maintain professional poise in a dynamic, high-traffic tourism environment.
You are naturally eco-conscious and eager to integrate sustainable practices into your daily operational workflows.
This might not be the right fit if:
You prefer a predictable, indoor office setting over an active, outdoor workplace subject to changing island elements and terrain.
You struggle with a fast-paced environment where managing high-volume guest groups and multi-departmental logistics is a daily requirement.
What to Expect
The Work: Creating memorable Caribbean experiences through custom-built catamaran cruises, luxury schooner sails, and guided off-road land safaris.
The Environment: A vibrant, soulfully driven professional setting centered around the iconic Pelican Pier and a network of high-energy resort concierge desks.
The Shared Goal: To protect and preserve Aruba’s natural magic while ensuring every guest leaves with a deep, authentic connection to the island.
The Experience in Action
How We Work Together:
We operate with the “Pelican Family” mindset, where cross-departmental trust is essential. During high-volume periods—such as turnaround times between cruises or peak land safari hours—our marine maintenance, tour guides, and concierge staff coordinate directly through clear communication protocols to ensure operational excellence and guest safety, ensuring no team member is left to manage peak demands alone.
Advancing Your Career:
We prioritize professional development and longevity within the Aruban tourism sector. Our growth system provides clear pathways from entry-level deckhand or sales positions into specialized technical or leadership roles, such as Fleet Maintenance Management or Guest Experience Concierge. We offer continuous training on products and service standards to ensure our team remains at the forefront of the hospitality industry.
Community First:
Sustainability is an operational reality rather than a marketing slogan. From the use of refillable water stations to the implementation of reef-safe practices across our catamaran fleet, every department is tasked with protecting the land and sea we call home. As a locally owned business established in 1986, our daily operations focus on regenerative tourism that benefits both today’s guests and tomorrow’s generations.
