If you're ready to nestle in for a day filled with nothing but cool ocean breezes and soft sands on your toes, then finding a lounge chair along Aruba's famous Palm Beach is a must. Holiday Inn Resort Aruba has a lounger with your name on it.

Want to bring the family, but worried about keeping a budget? At this resort, kids stay free! Yes, you read that right. Kids 12 & under get all the food and fun at no extra cost to mom and dad. Whether getting crafty at the activity center, kicking butt at the video-game arcade or playing in the sun and surf, your kids can live it up without shelling you out.

Need a drink while making a splash? Just float over to one of the submerged lounge chairs and let one of the resort's skilled mixologists dazzle you with a cocktail. Remember, if you're with your kids, they are having a great time at the Kids Club!

A fresh new look, three pools with ocean views, restaurants, bars, a spa, activities and plenty of areas to unwind, this is really a resort for everyone.

This hotel is NOT all-inclusive. Food and drink must be purchased separately. Unless otherwise specified, all services are available for an additional charge.

    Excellent customer service from Ramon

    The beds are super comfortable, the resort is beautiful and the staff are friendly. In particular, Ramon was the best server we have EVER had. He would go above and beyond to make our dining experience truly special. He would have our drinks at our table waiting as soon as we walked in the door. He would greet us with a smile and asked us about our day. He would do anything to accommodate our dining needs. We valued him so much we would follow him to the various restaurants. (DaVinci and Agave) If you have the pleasure of him serving you please take good care of him- he is one in a million! Lastly the chef Auri is phenomenal she goes above and beyond to make sure each customer has the absolute best dining experience. Her dishes she creates are absolutely delicious and one of a kind. She is the chef at DaVinci and Agave.

    Great location and decent All Inclusive package

    Very nice location close to both Oranjestad as well as the airport… The hotel is located on the beach side and offers different swimming pools just next to the sea… The all inclusive package includes all basics one can expect from a standard all inn package but the variety in food, mainly breakfast and the evening dinner buffet could be extended, which does not always requires an increased food cost but more creativity maybe. Our first stay was in 2001 and some areas remained unchanged and might require some contemporary uplifts (floors, paint, furniture) … Having said that, value for money wise this is still a great place to stay !

    Amazing family vacation

    We are having a great stay. Clean comfortable rooms. Nice pool the only thing is that people put towels to reserve chairs and don’t use them for hours and when you don’t wake up early it’s hard to find a chair unless you pay for cabanas. Beach is nice and well taken care off. Friendly staff. They only think is they don’t have microwave any where in the resort to warm up food .

    Beautiful views from everywhere

    Great staff, amazing food, beautiful grounds, walk right up to the beach, super clean, numerous places to eat and shop, great pools! The staff were amazing. The restaurants on premises made special food orders( due to food allergies) with no problem! I would DEFINITELY stay there again. Shopping/stores were right across the street
