They have some really great staff. They really do try. Rooms were a good size and mostly clean though there was a lot of noise from the hall or floor above. Hotel is dated decor-wise. Hot tub was actually hot which isn't always guaranteed. Buffet restaurant food was just awful, even for buffet food. You have to check in with the hostess to get a table. Beach proximity is great and a nice beach though guests "reserve" chairs first thing in the morning by placing towels or personal items in them though they may spend an hour or two all day in the pool or beach, which leads to unnecessary chair scarcity. Swim up pool bar drinks are served in tiny paper cups; bring a refillable bottle. Two dive/watersports shops are a short walk and the main shopping drag is close.

The fire alarms had gone off all hours of the night/morning for 2 nights. Staff could only tell us it was a false alarm. Many of the guests waited 45 minutes outside before any staff members updated them. We had to exit every time due to not knowing if it was a false alarm or real. We spoke with the facilities manager who was very unsympathetic (and almost rude). He supposedly requested a 2 night refund 1 week ago but has not reached out to us and has not responded to my email

We upgraded to the Royal level. Not worth it in my opinion. You basically get to check in at a private room opposed to the front desk. Everything else is same. The “premium drinks” still come in a tiny paper cup. Staff is not very friendly. The Marriott seems much nicer.

We did not enjoy any of the food in this resort unfortunately (buffet & restaurants). We did eat outside the resort multiple times even though we paid for all inclusive. The location is great right on the beach and across from restaurants and shopping. The island is very safe and comfortable which we enjoyed. We loved the excursions we booked through de palm (UTV & snorkeling). We did not like that we could not get a seat at the pool unless you were down there by 5am. The room was OK - the soap dispenser in the shower broke the first day and the AC was dripping. The service was great, but the food really needs improvement.

This property is horrible. Food is basically inedible. I have never been so portly treated at st so called “5 star” hotel. I had to beg for hand towels and face cloths. I was in a room overlooking a parking lot when I requested ocean view. They changed my room and it smelled so bad and again…no hand towels or face cloths. I had to take the ones I begged for out of my previous room. If you want an afternoon snack after the beach, you have to go to the disgusting buffet and the nachos have been sitting in the tray for 4 hours. My friends were all staying in condos down the strip and when one came to bring my stuff up to my room…security wouldn’t let them. I am a single 55 yr old woman…what if I met a man out in Aruba?? Totally hated my experience there and stay far away from this disaster of a hotel!!

Convenient location is a big plus, but need some renovations amd repairs such as more light in sleeping room, more sealed sliding balcony doors, otherwise wind and outside noise. Bathroom: toilet flashing makes loong noise untill fills up, no toilet brush, sink has broken water stopper, faucet has no round plastic filter, noisy and water spills allover, squeaky toilet door. Buffet: Need more staff during dinner time. Entertainment is so so, tequila is horrible. Overall ok resort comperate to Barcelos that we visited numerous times in Dominican and Mexico.
