Loved this property because it was small enough to easily go back and forth from the room to the pool and bistro. No waiting for elevators or thousands of guests. The beach buggy shuttle was very convenient and staff was very friendly and helpful. Great location; just a couple of blocks to walk to the strip area. Very relaxing vibe and excellent breakfast.

Wish I had known when I booked that this is a Marriot Courtyard property as I would have used my Bonvoy credit card. Missed out on a lot of points. Only complaint I have is that the pool bar was playing rap music with explicit vulgar and racist lyrics which was blaring over the whole pool area. Not family friendly. Hope you can consider sticking with non-offensive music.

Breakfast was great! Location was good,,, not on the beach but they provided a shuttle to the beach

the pool wasn't clean It was very cloudy I was surprised they didn't clean it at night when everyone is out of it

This was a last-minute trip so we had limited availability... I went solely by photos of the pool area and the reviews... We were so so happy with this resort... I originally wanted to stay at an all inclusive but was very happy that we didn't. There was such a good feeling vibe at this resort, it was laid-back, but they always had music playing, and I have to say they were the happiest staff ever... pool was very nice... I highly recommend that you get a pool view patio...originally we had a room that we did not like and they changed it and it was a night and day difference... on the Mills side, it was a huge room with a full kitchen, so spacious, nice patio out back and it was so convenient because it wasn't a high-rise... You must get a room that includes the breakfast... We have stayed at some very nice high-end resorts and I must say that their breakfast is up there with the best... Anything you can think of was included in his breakfast buffet... We never had to eat lunch because we were still full from breakfast... During our stay, we did check out all the different resorts and this was located in walking distance to casinos and restaurants and they had a quick shuttle to the beach... I would definitely come back and stay here again.

It is always windy in Aruba... Hard to wear a nice floppy hat they didn't blow away.... They sell floppy hats that have the tie around the neck, that you would have to use if you want to wear a floppy hat.

From the moment we arrived, the service was exceptional — every staff member, from the front desk to the restaurant team, housekeeping, and the pool staff, was attentive, kind, and genuinely welcoming. They went above and beyond to accommodate every request, and you could truly feel that they love their jobs and want guests to enjoy their stay. That’s real hospitality! The location is fantastic — close to other hotels, restaurants, and just a short walk to the beach. The pool area is lovely, the rooms are modern, clean, and well-maintained, with thoughtful touches like beach towels and quality toiletries provided. Breakfast was delicious (the omelettes were a highlight!), and when we celebrated my husband’s birthday, the staff surprised us with a cake and even sang for him — such a thoughtful gesture that made our trip extra special. Overall, I couldn’t be happier with our experience. This hotel is the perfect value for money, and I highly recommend it to both families with kids and couples looking for a relaxing getaway. We will definitely be back!

Nothing! Everything was amazing!

Pool , shuttle to the beach as well as the beach area. Cold drinking water on the beach is big plus. Kudos for management. Very smart

Feedback on Pool Maintenance I appreciate that the staff performs regular cleaning of the big pool every morning. However, I’ve noticed that the water quality in the big pool still seems to need more thorough maintenance or perhaps a deeper servicing to bring it up to the highest standard. On the other hand, the small pool has consistently been very clean and well-maintained. Feedback on Breakfast The quality of the food was very good and in line with the standards I expect from the Marriott Hotel Group. However, the selection seemed to be quite similar each day. Introducing a bit more variety would make the breakfast experience even better.

It is a really nice hotel, the pool and the rooms are large comfortable and the location is perfect!

We booked a room for 3 persons. One queen bed and 1 sofa. When we arrived the sofa was not done, we called reception and a lady came to help us to open the sofa and she told us: “the bed sheets are there”.. so we had to prepare the sofa by ourselves when supposed to be ready done for us. We requires a gluten free options for breakfast , but we found there aren’t , only bread that some days is available and some days not.

The rooms were large and well appointed. The pool area was nice and had plenty of room. The housekeeping staff was EXCEPTIONAL- they were very nice and kept the rooms spotless and well stocked. The breakfast was good, and the restaurant indoor wait staff members were very pleasant and attentive. The servers outside were not as attentive, pleasant, or capable. Honestly, the outside service was pretty terrible, but the inside service was really good! The hotel is in a fabulous location, easy walking distance to the beach and to many restaurants. There is live music at night, but the rooms are very well insulated, so it wasn't too loud. The rooms also have really good black out curtains to block the light.

The front desk staff seemed a little bothered if they were asked for something (like directions to the beach). The concierge staff was not very helpful either; I got the sense they were just there to try to book outside tours. The lounge chairs around the pool were extremely uncomfortable. It was hard to sit in them for more than a few minutes.

The pool was beautiful, and the pool bar was amazing! We enjoyed the location, in terms of proximity to the beach and to all the restaurants, but still found the resort to be peaceful and quiet. We would definitely return.

You can walk to the beach (~5 minute walk) or take a shuttle, but the resort is not beach front. So you can have a pool view or a courtyard view, but no beach view here. Also didn't like how pricey the restaurant was, if you don't get the breakfast included option, it is $45 a person for the continental breakfast buffet.

The breakfast was buffet style. It had everything and anything that a person could want to start a day off on the right foot. Both hot and cold foods were served. wide variety of cheeses, fruit and cold cuts on the cold side while on the hot side bacon, sausages, eggs, toast, french toast and waffles. A wide variety of pastries were also available.

Nothing it was all great. Exceptionally clean room, well maintained grounds, very friendly staff and several pools to select from.

Very friendly staff Amazing facilities (pool, rooms, parking) Close to main street of bars/restaurants Transport to the beach area and great suport in the beach (water, towels)

- Beach area could be more explored by the hotel. Few trees with shadow, and people who are not staying at the hotel can use the same area of the guests. - check in time is too late (unfortunately we arrived early and could not have early checkin) - hotel restaurant was not available for guests during our stay - pool bar closing time is early and many times there was no one there. They could extend working hours, so people could enjoy more the sunset in the pool.
