I don't really know where to start. My wife travels weekly for business and we travel 5+ times per year for vacations. Staying predominately with Starwood properties. This was by far the worst hotel experience we have ever had. The front desk staff was incompetent and unprofessional. The worst part is we convinced our friends to move over from the... more

This was my 5th trip to aruba. And my first stay at the Westin. I have stayed at the Aruba Grand (no longer exsisting), the Wyndham and the Radisson. We stayed at the Westin because the Radisson was booked and because the prices were reasonable. I didnt expect the Westin to be as nice as it was due to the... more

My wife and I were married on the beach here on October 10, 2009. We cannot say enough great things about wedding planners Inge and Jancis and their associate Lissy who plans the civil ceremony downtown. This was our first visit to Aruba so we chose the Westin based on name and price. Our party included 12 family members who... more

I just returned from a 5 night stay ay the WESTIN ARUBA. The hotel is32 years old and you can tell. No fans in the bathrooms. Sensors on the high price items in the refridgerator. $5.00 per day if you want a fridge you can store your drinks in. The most iritating was the constant 17% gratuity even for a... more

From the moment you step out of the car/cab the staff is there to make your stay as relaxing or as exciting as you want it. The rooms are spacious. The Terraces are made for breakfast or cocktails with the sunrise or sunset. The ocean views are amazing. The beaches (Palm and Eagle) were the best we've ever been to.... more

The hotel is apparently one of the older "high rise" hotels and it is starting to show. It does not compare well with the Riu Palace next door and when we were there it was receiving a much needed paint job on the outside. Meals and drinks are expensive but that was true of pretty much everywhere we went on... more

My stay at the Westin Aruba was great and Aruba is Paradise. I booked a standard room, but due to my husband being a Starwoods Platinum member, we were upgraded at check in to an Ocean view suite on the 17th floor! The room was great - FABULOUS views, two balconies; well appointed; and quiet. The staff was very accomodating... more

First time to Aruba and the weather was nice and hot. We arrived and checked in without any problems. Our room was even numbered, like the other reviewers said those will have the better view. The beach is very beautiful but can be very windy at times. You don't really need to pay to rent a hut. People pay to... more

Me: Frequent traveler, Starwood Platinum member for several years running, looking for some serious R&R at the Westin Aruba. HA! To other travelers points on this site, the hotel is dated inside and out. The pool is tiny, the restaurants are completely non-descript and you know things are bad when I'm walking to the Hyatt to hang out or the... more
