Considering ownership (by Patricia B.):

My husband and I just returned from Aruba. We are Marriott platinum members and received an upgrade to stay at the Ocean Suites instead of the Marina Hotel. We love the private island and hope to purchase a week at the Ocean Suites in the future. We would be interested in any comments regarding ownership, maintenance fees and general satisfaction ratings from the other owners.
We have owned at the Renaissance Ocean Suites for the past 16 years. We go every October and have seen all the improvements they have made in the units. We went this past March and were very pleased with the service and all the staff were very accommodating. We started back in 1996 to go to Aruba between Feb and March. We rent from other owners so we don't have to give up our weeks in October. We love the idea that you can walk to all the restaurants in town and the private island is so relaxing.
