The property is located on an amazing secluded stretch of Palm beach and has been totally refurbished in the last 8 months.
What I wish I
could change:
Now that all the rooms and restaurants have been refurbished, it is pretty much perfect!
Why YOU should
go:
The property offers couples and families an upscale vacation setting, and all the amenities you expect from a Marriott. Visit the privately owned beach bar just down from the hotel, it's a great place to meet locals.
The Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino is truly a unique and delightful find among the Aruba Resorts on Palm Beach.

Aruba Marriott Resort and Stellaris Casino sets a new standard for tropical seaside elegance. Under impossibly blue skies and awash with color, the hotel serves as an exotic invitation to tropical luxury. Soft white sand, sparkling blue waters and sun-drenched beaches border this resort destination on magnificent Palm Beach.
Furnished with thatched shades, a 100 yard wide by 60 yard deep section of Palm Beach fronts the resort and slopes down to the turquoise sea. A lagoon-style pool featuring a rock grotto waterfall bends around a pool bar containing a swim-up counter. On the other side of the rock formation is a nine person free-form spa tub. The pool's sundeck is furnished with cushioned lounge chairs. On the beach, there is both a windsurfing center and a watersports center.
Connected by a covered walkway to this resort, a companion resort, Marriott's Aruba Ocean Club, offers hotel guests a Balinese-style health spa featuring couples rooms with two person spa tubs and a private relaxation garden with cushioned lounges.
Unwind at the health club, swim in a tropical free-form pool with cascading waterfalls or enjoy sailing and diving right at the resort with golf and tennis available nearby. The Marriott Aruba Resort and Stellaris Casino is the closest resort on the island to Aruba's new Tierra del Sol championship golf and country club.

Hurricane Policy: Marriott International will once again ease wary summer travelers' concerns with "Marriott's Caribbean Travel Interruption Promise," protecting guests, and their precious vacation time, against the threat of a hurricane.
Guests holding a confirmed reservation with a nonrefundable deposit who are unable to travel to the hotel where they hold a reservation due to an airport or the hotel's closure related to the hurricane, have the option to choose either a full refund or a one-category room upgrade on their next visit to the same hotel within 12 months. These two options apply to room-only rates, promotions and packages. Reservations for comparable accommodations will be made on a space-available basis. This policy does not apply to delayed or cancelled flights due to severe weather or other conditions for any reasons except as identified above.
Guests who are registered at the resort whose stay is interrupted by a hurricane which directly hits the property (as defined and validated by the U.S. National Weather Service) will receive a certificate for a complimentary three-night return stay valid for two years from their original travel dates, including room and room tax. This return stay is based on availability and other applicable terms and conditions.
