We stayed at the Tamarijn Oct. 11-16, 2006. All in all we did have a wonderful stay. Aruba is very much a desert climate, by that I mean dry cactus' etc and not very lush landscaping. My husband was a little dissappointed by that. This isnt a lush, tropic jungle like climate. We arrived about 730P on the 11th and... More

The 7 bars are well stocked and have something for everyone. The resort hosts a casino and is close to Oranjestad. Guests have the option of using the facilities... More

when we first pulled up i really thought this place was going to be really old, yes the whole place could use a minor make-over but it's not that bad. we were in building 11 which is probably the best location on the whole resort, the best stretch of beach, best view of water, close to bars and restaraunts and...

*Airport/Arrival We arrived at Aruba International Airport in the late afternoon, went through passport control without any problems (no waiting at all), got our luggage and had no problem getting a taxi. The distance to the hotel from the airport is no more than 20 minutes. Unlike most of the other tropical islands that we've been to (Jamaica, Dominican Rep... More

If you are looking for peace and quiet on a nice beach near the water this is the place. If you're looking for fast and furious dont come here. One minor issue was it took... More

This was my wife's and my 5 year anniversary trip back to our honeymoon spot. We hoped to get our same room but settled for a room close by (every room is pretty much the same, all ocean front and along the best beach in the low rise section). We came back to our room on the 2nd night an... More

We just spent a week there and we not disappointed. We went through CheapCarribean.com and everything was handled perfectly. The hotel was clean, staff friendly (except at Papparatzi restaurant). Our room was on the first floor and was a short walk to the beach. The food was great (except at Papparatzi). The buffet, Ginger restaurant and the Red Parrot provided... More

You will not be disappointed with this resort. We just spent a week 5th-12th of Dec. and are already planning our next trip back. Food was excellent, service was great, and the beach was spectacular. Don't spend more to go to these 5 star resorts, you will get the same great service and food for a great price. This was... More

My husband and I came back from a week at the Tamarijn. Food was wonderful. Never had a bad meal. Everyone we came in contact with was very pleasant and helpful. Room was clean and neat. Plenty of room for 2. Loved the shuttles taking us everywhere. Close to shopping and gambling. We have no negative comments. Looking forward to... More
