As soon as we checked in, we noticed, even though we had an upgraded room that our view was of the partial roof that was under construction. On top of that there was carpeting in the room that smelled like wet dog. They also knew that we had a child with us that would be sleeping on the pull out bed, and there were no linens and the mattress looked like it had been soiled before. Needless to say we did not stay the entire time. For nothing being included, it was an outrageous price for what the room was.

What I don’t get about this property is there’s an adult section swimming area. Then there’s a common area, that’s the one with the swim up bar. All the kids at the swim up bar area. Just think they got that part totally wrong. The areas should be flipped that’s just a suggestion.

Fantastic vacation at the Marriott Resort. Property is super nice w/tons of amenities, daily entertainment at the pool during the day and inside the lobby in the evening. Beach is awesome and the location provides a lot of opportunities to walk to other resorts and/or the mall area. Can’t say enough about the Aruban people who were so nice! Already planned return trip. Very highly recommend.

I didn’t like the system they have for reserving palapa on the beach. People who arrive on Sunday can reserve the whole week leaving the rest of us scrambling to get the worst locations by the sidewalk. Also, for what you pay for a room, charging for the palapa seems like nickel and diming guests to death.

Property and grounds were good. Unfortunately our stay was ruined by lack of rule enforcement during an en experience that I was unaware of called “hell week.” Gaggles of unsupervised teenagers overtake the property and are ill mannered, loud, and hang out in places where they should not. The staff does nothing to correct the behavior and they don’t enforce the property rules.

Phenomenal resort, embodying and displaying the BEST of the Marriott service and attention every minute and at every turn. From check-in to check-out, our stay was superb. Great location. Amazing beachfront with inviting huts, crystal clear water, and always-on attention from the staff. Pool area was also great, with swim up bar, lounge chairs, and plenty of space. The lobby has a delicious sushi restaurant, several shops, and a gelato place that is a MUST EAT (try the Peanut Nutella!). Easy inside access to the Stellaris Casino for adult fun. Main restaurant is now the "Mercat"... serving breakfast, lunch and dinner. Great food, very organized, and super clean. There's also a Ruth's Chris Steak House on site that's AMAZING. No shortage of things to do, easy walks, etc.

We really enjoyed the convenient beach location and the chair setups. The reservation process for chair setup had some problems however. Lining up at 4 pm for the next day was discouraging then to be told to go on line was easier … not so when the Wi-Fi was spotty… they did their best to accommodate. Servers in the beach work hard so be generous with your tips$$. Generally a well run place. The main pool was closed for seasonal repairs so the adult pool became a family pool. A heads up would have been nice😉

We booked our honeymoon through Travelocity in June for our September wedding, upon arrival, first noticed the pool was fenced off, which is the main focus when you walk in the lobby. The clerk said it was posted online that is was closed for remodel for the month, we must have missed that important fact. So, then we are put in a ocean view room, as requested, but overlooking the said empty pool with 30 workers in it all day everyday hammering and sawing, scraping, dragging, all of it, and up until dark. So when questioned, nothing was offered to move to a room looking over the other pool, next door, or a discount, or a refund. So honeymooned with a bunch of construction guys is literally how it went down till the day before we left and then pool opened without the bar.
