Re: Anyone been to Aruba?

We have been a few times....we stayed at the Temarajan (all inclusive) many years ago, The Marriott, & at a time share (that I cannot remember)

The great thing about Aruba is that the food is so good. There are so many restaurants that serve really great food!

It is my favorite island! Be careful though, it doesn't seem hot, but the sun is really strong and the island breeze is deceiving!

We went last December and stayed at the Hyatt and the Westin (we used hotel points so we moved mid trip to maintain free lodging).

We loved it there!

I wouldn't go all inclusive - there are so many great restaurants there!

ETA: We are possibly going back again this year - this time we'll do a timeshare.

Re: Anyone been to Aruba?

I went years ago. We booked it through bid4vacations.com- where you used to be able to name your own price.

It was a timeshare at the Divi Village.

Re: Anyone been to Aruba?

We went there on our 1st year anniversary last May...we stayed at the Westin which sucked (they took over the Wyndham which was totally yucky)....favorite hotel is the Hyatt!!! The island is nothing special (very flat) but the beaches are nice...the nicest is Eagle...Palm Beach is too busy.....

I would not do an all inclusive because the island has many great restaurants!!

Re: Anyone been to Aruba?

We rented a private home with a pool. Loved it!

we are going back this October and staying in the same place.

I agree with the PP....dont stay in an all-inclusive...there are so many WONDERFUL resturants on the island

Re: Anyone been to Aruba?

we did the Divi for our honeymoon and LOVED it...our doors opened right onto the beach. We did all-inclusive and had b-fast, lunch and drinks at the hotel every night and went out to dinner almost every night...it was totally worth it in that manner.

Plus the way the flights ran ion American, by the time we got in on the first day it was perfect to have dinner at the hotel as well.

We went back the next year, it's very relaxing.
