올 인클루시브 홀리데이 인 리조트 아루바

The staff were friendly and helpful. The location is great, you can walk to so many places and I felt very safe. The beach water was nice but the ground was mucky and had seaweed. We needed to use tubes. The pool and beach chair situation was good. I thought the price to rent palapas and gazebos was reasonable, but we never did. We could always find chairs with umbrellas around 7:30. The food was good. We especially liked Sea Breeze. For the price I wish the kids club was nicer and the rooms were nicer. Our AC stopped a few times because of a tripped breaker. Our shower constantly leaked water onto the bathroom floor. The 2 bed setup was double beds which was pretty tight for a family of 4. We stayed in the Sea Tower facing into the resort. Our room was decently quiet. But I heard that was not the case for our neighbors across the hall that faced off property. Our side had beautiful sunset views.

The food and staff were good. Rooms and hotel overall a bit outdated. But overall a great trip.

Amazing!! Such a great place to visit! Wonderful place to stay! They had so many options for good food. Tons of shopping in and around the resort. Fabulous and friendly staff. Would recommend to anyone!! Prefect for adults and families! Love Aruba! And the Holiday Inn was the perfect place to stay! Pool was steps away from the beach! Definitely going back.

Overall it was a good stay. The food was excellent. The all inclusive was well worth it. Good breakfast buffet every morning with a lot of choices. Lunch was limited. Basically one option that was mostly fried food or sandwiches. Would have been good to have one more outdoor / poolside restaurant that offered to go meals but we managed. Dinner was excellent. You had to plan ahead as they are not all open every night and you needed a reservation. The staff was friendly, I'd say I've seen other hotels have their staff be more accommodating. Amenities were OK, buildings were older, pools were very nice, beach was great, some shops inside, the gym was very small and always packed. The rooms were average to below average. We stayed on the Ocean side of the Ocean Tower which had a great view but it was next to the Moomba club which operated loud music until 2 in the morning every night. So bring earplugs! We did but it was still very hard to get used to. The resort was packed so no option of moving. We had two double beds and they were small. Another option was a king bed with a sleep sofa but we know someone that chose that option and the sleep sofa bed was very uncomfortable. So overall, a good stay, but they need to upgrade their beds and the glass to soundproof on the Ocean Tower! But at least we were in Aruba!
