Marriott's Aruba Ocean Club

Visited the week of June 7th. It was a fabulous property. We were very happy with our stay at the Ocean Club.

Staff very friendly and efficient.

I visit Aruba Ocean Club two or three times a year. It is always a pleasure staying at this 5 star resort. I have been to many other Caribbean islands but none of them come close to Aruba's Ocean Club. The people there can't do enough for you. They are far the nicest and most polite people I have ever met. The island is safe to walk around in any time of the day, or night. There are a few Supermarkets on the island that are very big and clean and offer everything we have back home. The drinking water, is one of the most delicious water that I have ever tasted and the food is out of this world. Marriott Ocean Club, has the largest rooms on the island. This island, has every convenience that we have in the States. There is something for everyone in the family, you never get bored. There are water sports for adults and children, fishing, parasailing, snorkling, horseback ridding and one of the biggest Casinos on the island is right next door. Across the street, there is a newly built plaza with restaurants, shops and a nice movie theater. The beaches are clean, long and beautiful and the weather is perfect with always a nice breeze. The resort's rooms are absolutely gorgeous and the best part is, that Aruba is only 4 hours from Newark airport. There is nothing negative to be said about this resort, only that you can't find anywhere better than this as a package deal.

This resort is absolutely perfect!!!!

My family prefers the Ocean Club to either the hotel, or the Surf Club, because it is approx 25% the size of the Surf Club, and quieter than either the hotel or the Surf. The advantage is that you are in an uncrowded resort (especially around the pool), situated in between the other two resorts whose facilities you may use. The hotel has the best casino on the island, the spa is at the ocean club and all 3 resorts offer a variety of restaurants in every price range. All of Marriott's Aruba properties are beautiful and well maintained. I own at both the Ocean Club and the Surf club. You can't go wrong with Aruba, and Marriott has the best places on the island. Walk along the beach and you can easily access all the other hotels, their restaurants and casinos.

I just returned from the Ocean Club and found it to be delightful. The units are modern, clean and well maintained as usual. The only drawback I noticed is that they have cut back on the daily exchange of towels both in your rooms and at the towel hut. There is a once a week cleaning of your room (free of charge) with clean towels provided. Any additional requests for clean room towels are for a fee. At the end of the day the towel hut always ran out of towels so often you would have to wait in line the next morning for a clean beach towel. All in all the stay was nice and the weather was beautiful. Unfortunately Aruba is getting busier each year with more & more buildings and stores popping up everywhere. It's starting to loose a little of its appeal because of that.

I've been an owner at the Aruba Ocean Club for 8 years. My family and I look forward to our time there year after year. There is always something fun to do; lots of water activities along the beautiful beach, site seeing, horse back riding, ATV's, snorkeling and scuba diving, boating, fishing, great resturants, night activities, casinos and of course lots of sunshine :) The timeshares are very roomy, clean and beautifully decorated. You won't be disappointed.
