Riu Palace Antillas: Its a Mini Vegas on an Island

One of the best vacations we have been on. Aruba is gorgeous, windy but still everything and more you can ask for. There is less than a 1% crime rate so you can basically go anywhere at anytime. There is so much to do you can walk to downtown or palm beach where they have restaurants, bars, shopping and a mall. If you like Vegas you will love Aruba, every resort/hotel has its own casino. They only accept American but pay you in American as well and its not like a resort casino, they pay very we [... read more]ll. We stayed at the Riu Antillas Resort this was our 3rd Riu and we were so pleased. We received a free room upgrade with both ocean and city view, the rooms are a bit outdated bed was hard but still we were in Aruba. All of the a la carte restaurants were yummy no waiting in line as it was an adults only resort, buffet was great lots to choose from and because we stayed at Riu Antillas we also got to go to the other Riu resort as eat and play there. You just can't eat dinner. The gym was great lots of equipment, warm but still one of the best gym's I have seen when on vacation. Drinks, too much alcohol your better off mixing your own unless you want to get drunk off of your first drink ;) we would defiantly go back I miss Aruba so much

Riu Palace Aruba: Outstanding!! A resort that won't disappoint!!

My husband and I returned here to Aruba after 25 yrs to celebrate our anniversary and the Riu Palace was absolutely breathtaking. The people in Aruba are so friendly, happy and always willing to make your stay as comfortable and memorable as possible. The food is very good, very clean, and if you choose to go off resort to eat, the convenience of restaurants are nearby. I loved the way the hotels along the strip connected with a lovely walkway. We visited all the resorts along the strip and we  [... read more]could not believe how much has changed. We will definitely return next yr to the Riu!!! Thank you Riu Palace for making our anniversary unforgettable!!!!

Riu Palace Antillas: Amazing Resorr

We went to the Rui Palace Antilles for our honeymoon. We chose the Riu brand based on our previous experience with Riu. The Palace Antilles has superb service, great restaurants and amazing beaches. We were totally pampered at this luxury resort! We cannot wait to return!

Riu Palace Antillas: Highly recommend

My husband and I celebrated our 50th wedding anniversary at this beautiful resort. We were extremely pleased with the efficiency and friendliness of the staff. The food was amazing and the resort spotlessly clean. The beach and water was perfect. We felt very safe, and unlike other resorts we've visited there is no need for a gated community or armed security. We could walk freely anywhere and take the bus into town. It surely is one happy island as they say.

Riu Palace Antillas: Amazing Resort!

We arrived at the Riu Antilles to celebrate our 25th wedding anniversary and the resort by far exceeded all of our expectations. The service is exceptional with friendly and courteous staff, the rooms are spacious and comfortable, the grounds are always clean and well maintained, the food was excellent with a variety to choose from and there was always excellent evening entertainment. We will definitely recommend this resort to all our friends and will stay here again if we ever return to Aruba. [... read more] Thank you Riu for making our stay a comfortable and relaxing.

Riu Palace Aruba: Old and Tired Resort

The tripcentral agent assured us the resort room we booked was newly renovated. even though i shared reviews on tripadvisor w her. we believed her. the rooms however were very old and damp. we paid an extra $500 to upgrade so it would not feel like we were sleeping in a dingy basement. i also reached out to her many times before we left w questions and got zero response. will not use tripcemtral again.

Riu Palace Aruba: Great all inclusive

Aruba was beautiful, can't go wrong with a Riu. The palace looks so pretty on the strip, which you can walk along the path and enjoy the view and little shops. Rick is great and responds very quickly and is so helpful. The weather was a bit windy sometimes, so pack something cozy for some nights, the desert is also really dry, be prepared to get dusty and protect yourself from the sun if you go on any desert outings. Food was decent at the riu, plenty of options, exactly what you would expect of [... read more] an all inclusive buffet. Amazing view

Holiday Inn Resort Aruba: Good resort

This was my second say at the holiday inn. It was as I remembered it to be. Pool area was nice. Food was very good. Just wish that they keeped the buffet for lunch and dinner. That would have been nice. The rooms in the main tower could be renovated so they look better. Over all good experience.

Tamarijn Beach Resort: amazing resort

This was a great location. Very close to the white sand beach. Food was good, staff were great, room was very pleasant/updated. Did not feel like I could not go off the resort - felt safe. Good choice of excursions. Sister resorts were also great to visit and eat at. Nice beaches to walk. Great sunsets. Staff made everything very easy to do - there to help you with anything you want. Within walking distance to the middle of town. Shopping was great.

Riu Palace Antillas: Amazing resort

Everything was great about this resort very clean, rooms were good, beach was fantastic. the only thing that I did not like was the first 100 feet or so of the beach area, it was rocky and not very sandy, hard on the feet.

Riu Palace Aruba: Amazing Riu Palace

Aruba was a great experience with beautiful beachs and wonderful people. In particular, Riu Palace is a superior resort. It is a large well maintained property with clean rooms, great service, and a good selection of restaurants. The pool is large and clean, has a swim up bar with friendly service. The entertainment staff provided daily activities which were well received and had good partipation. This included beach volleyball which was also very popular. Overall, we really do recommend the Riu [... read more] Palace.

Tamarijn Beach Resort: Amazing location and resort

We stayed at the Tamarijin April 28-May 5, food was excellent, rooms updated, awesome view from our balcony & loved being steps to the beach . We stayed in the 2000 block which I would recommend as the beach is wider there. The drinks where good & the grounds where kept very nice. They offer free bikes which we used to ride to the california light house, the bikes do need alot of attention & replaced most where not in great shape. It took us a few to find one with good working brakes. Loved the  [... read more]safety of the island & not being bugged to buy things. Can not wait to return!

Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort: Amazing Resort

Just got back from a week stay at this resort. We stayed on the adult only side, however had full access to the family side across the street as well. Was a beautiful hotel inside a mall and also had a casino. This hotel is located right in downtown so local shops were within 5 mins walking distance and a 10 min car ride to palm beach. We went with the all inclusive package, which was so worth it. Food and drinks were amazing!! So many choices of different meats, seafood etc. I am vegan and was [... read more] worried about eating, they had a ton of options and are very familiar with what vegan is. If you let them know they will happily make you special things or point on what you can eat. The private island was one of our trips highlights. Took a 5 mins boat ride out every morning and enjoyed a not so packed beach with flamginos and iguanas! Overall very nice hotel. Very clean. Service was best I’ve ever experienced, the servers go way above and beyond. I will definitely be back to Aruba!

Riu Palace Antillas: Great Accommodation - would definately go back

The food was exceptional such a variety, the staff were superb and every little detail was taken care off with a smiling genuine caring attitude. The cleanliness of the pool and beach areas were exceptional along with the great staff and different areas for eating. My only comment which I would add is when a flight is delayed and you can't get any tea or coffee because everything is closed so early in the morning perhaps this could be changed to accommodate the traveler.

Riu Palace Antillas: Riu Aruba

This an amazing resort. If you can't have good time here you have a problem.The food service and activies were fantastic and the rooms were great. Thank you Riu Antillas for a great time and thank you for putting us up for an extra night .

Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort: Fantastic resort - cannot wait to go back

We did the all inclusive. The best food in any of the Caribbean islands by far. The food and variety at the Aquarius was fantastic. We stayed at the Marina hotel. Great staff.....very helpful and courteous to everyone. One day I saw one of the cleaning ladies helping an elderly woman take her walker up to the pool level to be able to see the ocean from the hotel.

Hyatt Regency Aruba: Fantastic Vacation

The Hyatt Regency is a beautiful hotel, on a beautiful beach with great customer service and in an ideal location close to restaurants and bars. The food was excellent everywhere, the people are super friendly, the island is very safe and Aruba is absolutely beautiful. I would not recommend going all-inclusive in Aruba. It would be a waste. There are too many great restaurants and pubs to enjoy. Can't wait to go back.

Tamarijn Beach Resort: Tamarijn Ocean Front Resort

In my opinion the best resort in Aruba! Food is great, something for everyone! Staff is more than helpful, and friendly! Entire resort oceanfront Feels very safe! Been to this resort 4 times now. Weather is fantastic!

Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort: Flamingo Paradise

Truly enjoyed the location of Renaissance. Right downtown across from ships and marina. Shopping and casino right in hotel superb! Walking distance to additional hotel on Ocean front. Pool and furniture nicely kept. No limit on towels. Lobby and bar very nice as well. Staff delightful and very polite. Service for food and beverage a bit slow. Private island stunning!! Would return without a doubt. The option of All Inclusive the way to go. Many wonderful options with that package.
