Savaneta is a town and region in southeastern Aruba.

[3] The Savaneta region has an estimated area of 27.76 square kilometers and 11,518 inhabitants according to the 2010 census.

After Aruba was conquered by the Netherlands, the governor lived in Commander's Bay, a natural harbour near Savaneta.

In 1852, the Canashito plantation was established, and workers were exempt for taxation for eight years.

[5] Other plantations were more successful, and by 1867, Savaneta was recognised as a village.
