I liked that the property was a non high rise. Food and staff were Excellent! I would have liked more of a variety of music other than that constant droning Caribbean beat! lol
We liked that we could go to either property and use thier pools and beaches and restaurants. And the fact that they have shuttle golf carts that will pjck you up from your room was great.
We had a great time, food was great and there was plenty of room on the beaches

The room was old. No room between the toilet and sink. The shower floor was not very clean. The best part was the view.
The resort needs to be kinder to the stray dogs who are around once in awhile and don’t bother anyone. One of the security guards kicked a sleeping dog. That was unacceptable so I reported it. It’s supposed to be a ‘happy island.’ Just because you don’t like dogs doesn’t mean you can abuse them.
The food at the buffet and restaurants was good. None of the drinks I had tasted like there was any alcohol in them. That’s OK because I’m not a big drinker but…what are we paying for?
Overall, it was Ok, but won’t be going back.
Loved everything about the property!!! Loved Imelda in The Terrace!!! Everyone at The Terrace, Ginger and The Red Parrot were fantastic!!! We will be back!!!
Thank you for your warm hospitality!!!
Tough go for our Honeymoon. Our shower was clogged and required a third party to repair the issue. My wife was unable to shower and was in tears. We were told a different room could be available but it was not the same room and it was much lower value than what we paid for. We ended up just using that extra room to shower while we waited for repairs. We had a crying baby that was situated in the room next to us which caused us to lose a lot of sleep as this child was crying at 4/5am. There was really only 3 resturants to choose from not including the buffet. In the initial package (online) it was stated 7 resturants available. A lot of the staff was rude and wouldnt even acknowledge us when we were in the buffet. If you wanted to lay on the beach, you couldnt get drinks without paying... unless you walk all the way back to the main lobby and order the drinks from that bar. To top it off the ice machine was consistently out of service when its 39 degrees outside. All inclusive definitely not worth it. Mexico is better and offers more for better bang for the buck. Aruba is a beautiful place. Just dont think all inclusive is the way to go. Better off paying more and staying at the Hilton and just paying for our meals
Our room at the Tamarijn number 2411 needed the bathroom redone. Our friends in room 2405 said the same thing. We did not have hot water only warm water in the shower in 2411. We also found the pool and the bench at the Divi more to our liking. Check-in was at three however we could not get in the room until 330. Other than that, we love the trip and plan to come back.
I loved the location of this property. Amazing oceanfront rooms & you’re on the beach within minutes of coming out of your room. Food was good but reservations for dinner before 9pm seemed to be quite difficult each day. We didn’t like there was no coffee cafe on site and had to travel to Divi every morning before noon to get it. No smoothies or fresh juice after 11am. Buffet has a nice selection and staff very kind. Restaurants on site were also good. Clean property and felt safe being here.
We liked the gym on site overlooking the beach and used it several times. They had towels and water onsite for you.
We checked out early because of the loud daily construction right beside the main dining buffet and people constantly smoking cigarettes on the balcony right next to us. I would recommend this resort to others if they like all inclusive stays.
Beach is so close! Open patio and you’re there! Staff very friendly. All inclusive is the best! Reasonable prices for taxi to airport. The shuttle to and from lobby and Divi is great. It’s so hot and humid so any ride is great.
My sisters and I spent 7 days/ 6 nights at Tamarijn Resort rooms 1106 and 1108. Check in was slow - only 2 front desk attendants. Rooms were beautiful and clean. Spectacular ocean front views. Bathroom floors looked old and corners were dirty. Restaurants were good - didn’t like that days and times were limited - needed to make reservations 2 days prior. There should also be bottled water , sodas and tiny alcoholic beverages in fridge since resort is supposed to be all inclusive!
Beach and pool nice property not kept up. Views unbelievable beautiful sister property beautiful and well kept. We had beautiful sunset views but not the room I booked and would change it. Some works not nice others so nice
I liked that the ocean front room was so close to the ocean. The view from my balcony was beautiful! However, it was difficult to enjoy being in the water due to a lot of sea weed washing to the shore
Great property, clean, no bugs and good variety of foods. The employees are friendly, helpful and diligent. The amenities and performances are amazing. The kids club is fun for all ages, even when you have to supervise your child (mandatory under 4). Clearly one of the best, most accommodating and friendly properties in the area.
I love my stay at this hotel, the service was great, the staff is very friendly and the food was good. If I was to give one or two recommendations, it would be that they have better communication on activities around the resort and more activities or even just music around the pool. It got a little boring sitting out there by the pool.
Staff is wonderful. The buffet is good but can get pretty packed. It says you can make reservations for their restaurants on the app but we went to the concierge because they had more options. The beach isnt big but thats why i liked because it felt more private. Lots of returning customers at this resort. Iiked it
very nice hotel, the food was incredible as well the room service hope will come back next yesr

Rooms very clean. Beautiful pools. Don’t stay at building 25 too removed I am a beach person and the beach there doesn’t stand up. Divi all inclusive beach a lot better but have to get up early and walk there as shuttle service doesn’t start until 8, if you want a palapa. Dinner reservations a pain. All good if you download app and stay up until 11:50 to jump on and plan.
The beaches on the property are beautiful. You have access to the Divi restaurants, pools, and property. Complimentary shuttles between the 2 and your room are super convenient.
Firstly, a room that has 2 queen beds is understood to be booking for 2 people. Yet there are hidden fees about the base rate being only for one person. This should be made aware as public knowledge on all booking sites not a fine print on your website only.
They make you wear bracelets rather than have 24-hr renewable keycards. For people that are allergic to the rope-like material like myself, there was no alternative. The room that was booked for 2 was prepared for only 1 guest. There was no hot water in our shower at all!
There was jack-hammering done right outside my room at 8 am in the morning! This is supposed to be a vacation. Close your resort or that section of your resort if you have construction.
All of the resort’s restaurants are booked except the buffet one and the concierge were unwilling to help regarding this. This is an all inclusive resort with restaurants apparently booked way before and they have no way of providing you with food if you don’t book specific reservations several weeks in front.
The staff at the bar were very discriminatory in their way of asking whether my friend and I are staying there even though our bracelets were very visible. There were other visitors who weren’t wearing bracelets but weren’t questioned the way we were. I pay just like everyone else to have a good stay and shouldn’t be questioned or looked at funnily by your staff when the situation did not warrant any of it.
