Savaneta is a fishing village in southeastern Aruba. Home to the oldest serving home in Aruba, it is the oldest town on the island and former capital. It was where the Dutch first settled after they recaptured it in 1816. The Spanish and Dutch came to land through a bay. These high rank officers called 'commandeurs' build their headquarters, so they called the bay Commandeursbaai. At the end of the 18th century the commandeurs moved to the Paardenbaai (Oranjestad). Years later the town near the Commandeursbaai was called Savaneta. Savaneta is Papiamento for small meadow.
