Tamarijn Aruba All Inclusive

Absolutely Had a Blast!

If you want to just get away and relax and have no worries, this is the place for you. My husband and I were celebrating our anniversary and we were not interested in booking excursions or doing any crazy activities, our main plan was to eat, drink, play in the ocean and sleep if necessary! The rooms had all brand new mattresses and bedding along with the furniture that truly gave you the island feel. The bathroom was clean and roomy, some say it needs updating but I dont need granite while I am brushing my teeth. We stayed in Block 1900, right next to the Bunker Bar- never too loud and VERY convenient while lounging under palapas! The beach was all sand and we used snorkel equipment to see fish right from shore (bring left over bread!) The buffets for breakfast, lunch and dinner were manageable and edible--morning selections were my favorite! The Red Parrot was simply delicious as well as Papparazzi(italian). For lunch and late night snacks we usually hit Pizza per Tutti for personal pizzas, sandwiches and appetizers. The little shuttles from Tamarijn to the Divi and Alhambra Casino were never a long wait away and the staff were quite knowledgeable with questions that were asked. I just want to thank Imelda, Catalina and Vincent for making our stay more enjoyable and we will definitely be returning next year to escape the cold of New England winters.

Make sure you bring plenty of sunscreen (spf30) the sun is strong and with the nice breeze you dont notice when you are burning! I used it all week and still came home with a tan! Take the bus into town, really cheap or head to the high rise district for great shopping.

Not the best I have ever stayed in in Aruba

I went to Aruba in October and stayed at the Tamarjin and was not impressed at all. I have stayed at the sister resort the Divi and liked it much better. The rooms were fine. It could use some updating. The slider going on to the porch moved very stiffly. The house cleaning had alot to be desired. Food wasn’t that good. The Tutti Bar had the best food and that was pizza, chicken fingers, french fries and junk food stuff. That is not what I paid the money for. We were not able to get the WiFi to work for my childrens computers to do homework. You did have a ocean view, but no beach unless you walked down the sand to the Divi. I would not stay there again and was disappointed.

The Safari Jeep tour was great. My children and I really enjoyed it. It was for a half of day. The jeeps were clean, air conditioned, and the tour guide talked to the caravan through the radio. It was very informitive and enjoyable. You saw a cave, Baby Beach, wind turbine project, small natural bridge and the other side of the island. Loved it!!

Would go again

The hotel was really great. Everyone on staff is very friendly. The food was good and has a great variety. I would absolutely would recommend this hotel to another person.
