It was great once we worked through small problems like giving my sister and I aking bed! And then the lady on the phone said one of us could sleep on the couch! There are quite a few rude people at the front desk,etc. This is the Happy Island. As for the property I would stay there for the 3rd time,it is great,lots of beach,chairs,good food,lots of activities and best love cation!
The facility was good. Food was average. 50 50 shot at getting a hospitable employee to make you feel welcomed. But that was Island wide. The wind was quite strong the entire time and they said it's a windy Island. I had another couple join us and we all decided to visit a different Island next time. The staff at DePalms were quite rude and sassy.
This is our 2nd time at the Holiday Inn and we loved it once again. We got the Sea Tower both times. Very clean and great location. Very close to the beach and great pools.
The only difference the 2nd time we could not get a good grass hut even being first in line. It seems they now rent the good ones out and can get very pricey if you do one every day.
I only gave dining options a 3 because we ate at other locations so I don't really know. It would be nice to have some place to pick up a quick breakfast for a reasonable price.
Aruba is one of our favorite vacations now because the weather is beautiful every day of the year. We will definitely stay at the Holiday Inn again!!!!
Location and beach great - service and room lackin
Location and beach is wonderful. The slow service and room were lacking. They could not get us checked in until almost 6:00 and check in was at 4:00. Room had not been swept or mopped. We had to ask for the room to be cleaned and they with me and said they were cleaning for a long time. Rooms were small and old, air did not work well. Patio was nice. The pictures they show are of their renovated rooms, so be prepared most are. Of like the pictures.

If you use the gold "Book this Hotel" box in the upper left hand corner of the page (found here https://www.cheapcaribbean.com/core/resortAvailability/cc.3521.html) you can use this feature to price your dates of travel out of your departure city. Every hotel on our website has this box and it's the best way to price out several different options. You can also call one of our representatives at 800-915-2322 and they'll be happy to assist you with pricing!
KateCC
Hey Jim, Sorry but I never checked the rates at the Westin. I will say though that all the rooms at the holiday inn have a water view. The waterfront is $60 more a night if you choose to add it on to your package. We had a room on the 7th floor & we saw nothing but water from our room......not ocean front either. It was a great view for a great deal!

What if you want to more than 4 nights in Aruba?4 answers
Holiday inn sun spree
7 years, 90 months ago
Eileen
You may of course book more than 4 nights! The resort requires a four night minimum stay to qualify for the special pricing and the available promo code. If you book more than 4 nights you would still be able to take advantage of the special pricing. When you are pricing your trip simply add more days to the calendar to determine your final total.
ccsusan1
We spent 8 nights. When you apply for one thier packages, put in the actual length of stay you want and they will calculate your cost
Mike56
yes me and my family stayed 6 nights
Cheryle
We did 5 and that wasn't enough. There are so many more things to do. We didn't do all-inclusive because we didn't want to be hooked to holiday inn restaurants only. Plus we don't drink a lot.

How much extra is the All-Inclusive package?2 answers
7 years, 88 months ago
Chicago
If you want to select the All-Inclusive Plan you need to book the package with title "Holiday Inn Resort Aruba All Inclusive" otherwise meals and drinks will not be included. There are several options for the Dine Around progam if you prefer to eat off property. These selections will be available on the upgrade section of the booking process.
KellyCC
When I was there 3 years ago, the all inclusive was an extra $120 a day.
Karenh99
Personally, I would not go all inclusive to this hotel. There are plenty of options to choose from outside. I usually go all-inclusive and I'm so glad I didn't on this trip.

Is this resort all-inclusive?5 answers
7 years, 88 months ago
Tdmoon
Holiday Inn Aruba offers the option to puchase their resort with and without the All inclusive plan. Cheap Caribbean lists the Holiday Inn Aruba with the All inclusive plan as a separate resort. Please refer to using our create your own vacation package on our home page and choose the Holiday Inn that says All Inclusive in the resort name.
MeganCC
You can choose whether or not you would like to take the all-inclusive option. I did not, however many of the guests were all-inclusive.
Dand825
This is an all inclusive option. I however did not choose it.
lyngigi
It is but I would recommend NOT going for that option.
DeniseR
This is an all inclusive resort but we choose not to go AI due to all the restaurants within walking distance

Can I book this vacation for 5 days but fly home 7 days LATER? I have been offered 7 days at another hotel by a friend who cannot use his timeshare.and I would like to incorporate the two.

If you would like to book a vacation package where the dates of check in and check out for the resort do not match the dates of travel for your airline flights, you would just need to call into our reservation center and a sales agent would be able to assist you with your customized vacation package.
KristinCC
The stamp on the passport from Aruba says for 30 days and no employment. I would think that allows you to stay for up to 30 days.

6 years, 77 months ago

This resort is located next to the Marriott on Palm Beach.

No, the Marriott is a fair distance away on its own. The Holiday Inn is on the coast along side radisson and playa Linda. I prefer the Holiday Inn location compared to the Marriott.

Some places like the iguana bar, kids eat free!! we didnt do the all inclusive so we could experience the life and culture of aruab. We would recommend doing this route, you can find some cheaper places to eat for lunch and supper for kids. Also there is a local super market that we went to and stocked up on snack and sandwiches for the week!
minnestoabeachlover
yes it is for the room

They do not provide free airport transportation. You can included them in your package at an additional cost.
bthornton
No. $25.00 US for a cab

No, and I would suggest taking a cab if staying at any of the hotels along the beach. It is a flat rate of $25. We took Depalm tours transfer and paid $20 per person and you have to stop at several hotels along the way:o(

I do not think so.
