    Awesome Dining!

    My husband and I came to Aruba for our anniversary. We had the pleasure of eating dinner at Da Vinci's! Wow!! I'll start by saying that the service was incredible! If you come and happen to get Ramon, you are lucky! He brings so much life to dinner! My husband is a celiac and Ramon knew exactly how to take care of us. I had the Costoletti di Manzo Brasato, braised short rib. It was heaven! Like butter! It was so incredibly tender and flavorful and Chef Ana prepared it gluten free and to perfection so my husband could have it. My husband had the tagliatelle Alla Bolognese, gluten free. It was incredibly delicious! All in all, 5 stars all the way around! ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

    Best stays ever!!

    Holiday Inn Resort Aruba truly feels like a second home! I’ve stayed here at least 8 times, and every visit is incredible. The staff treats you like family—warm, attentive, and always eager to help. The beachfront location is stunning, with turquoise waters just steps away. Rooms are clean and comfortable, and the amenities, from the pool to the delicious food, are top-notch. If you want unmatched hospitality, breathtaking surroundings, and a relaxing vibe, this is the place to be. Already counting down to my next stay!

    Good value, get room away from noise, put in some work for best beach setups.

    Positives: The resort is clean, friendly staff, good pool and beach area. Good value and did not expect 5 star for each thing. Drawbacks: Noise. We stayed in the Sea Tower with an ocean view room and king bed expecting best accommodations, but the dance club next door rages until 1-2am nightly with loud bass pumping. The club is not wild or anything, just loud and kept us from getting any good sleep before 1am. If I went back, I would very specific about asking for a room away from the noise. I’m guessing the rooms in the other tower are much more comfortable noise wise and that if you are stuck in Sea Tower, having a room as close to the pool side is better. Bottom line, get away from the noise over upgrading views or beds. Also, get out early in the morning (645-7) to put ask early morning staff to put together your desired beach setup and then mark it with towels and a personal belonging. Then, get back to it by 9 to establish your presence. You don’t need to actually be there all morning but you want to put in a little effort to get the items you want before the beach fills up. This goes whether you have reserved a palapas or not. I do recommend reserving a palapas as they are otherwise unavailable to get. Check the website to see how early you can reserve and set a reminder! Best ones are the front or second row to the beach or to choose the Sea zone where you will be adjacent to a pool and a smaller crowd. Ok, back to enjoying the place!
