  Construction site in the middle of the resort with demolition noise day and night

  Management ignores guests. The management ordered construction job right in the center of the resort, replacing tiles with power hammers, tile saws, etc. For a few nights already, with complete ignorance to the current guests. It is like you are having vacation in the middle of the construction. Day and night. The management ignores multiple complaints.

  Birthday Bust!

  We booked our stay at the Tamarijn and Divi Hotel in Aruba from August 27–31 to celebrate two very special birthdays—my husband’s 50th and my son’s 14th. Leading up to our trip, I began email correspondence with the concierge on July 16 to arrange birthday celebrations and special requests. After one initial response from a gentleman, communication stopped completely, despite my sending seven follow-up emails. When I inquired about this upon arrival, I was told the gentleman was no longer employed there. I asked if anyone else from the concierge team had access to the emails, and the response was shocking—they said no one checks the concierge emails. This begs the question: why provide a concierge email address at all if no one is monitoring it? Upon check-in, our room was incorrect, and I had to practically tip the front desk agent to finally receive the room I had initially paid for. The issues didn’t stop there: • The in-room coffee maker didn’t work, and instead of replacing it, I was told to go to the lobby for coffee. • The safe was not operational. • Calls to housekeeping and room service to fix the toilet went unanswered. My family and I travel internationally at least four times a year and are very simple travelers. We don’t ask for much—just the basics of what we’ve paid for. Unfortunately, this property did not meet even those expectations. The food was mediocre, the service was mediocre, and the hospitality fell far short of what you’d expect for such an important trip. This was a disappointing experience during what should have been a very special celebration for my family. Sadly, I cannot recommend the Tamarijn, and we will not be returning.

  Tamarijn All Inclusive Resort

  We stayed at the Tamarijn for our honeymoon and had the absolute time of our life. Food was amazing for an all inclusive. Their drinks were very good as well! They serve high end liquor, and knew how to make delicious mocktails. We did 2 of the e-bike tours and enjoyed them both! It gave us the opportunity to check out other areas of the island. The e-bike tour we did on Wednesday with Calvin, Jordy, and Donny took us to the California lighthouse. This tour was hot and we got a little sunburnt, but the views were amazing. The staff was amazing, making us feel so safe and giving us the best tour. I just wish there weren’t so many stops in the heat. The second e-bike tour we did was the snorkeling tour at boca Catalina with Zef and Donny. We had the BEST time during this! I would 10/10 recommend this if you are staying at the Tam or Divi. Both of our guides were so fun and made this such a memorable experience. Bring an underwater camera/case for your phone because Zef & Donny were both more than willing to get amazing pictures for us underwater. We loved swimming with the sea turtles!! All of the staff at the resort is so friendly & so happy!! The Divi beach is much nicer but there are some rooms at the Tam that have a decent beach. We were lucky to have a beautiful beach by our room. We would 10/10 come back to this resort!! We also did the UTV tour booked with the concierge-highly recommend doing this to check out different parts of the island!!

  Clean and beautiful.

  The Tamarijn was clean as it was beautiful. We had such a great experience. The food was delicious and we had a large selection of restaurants, bars and cafeteria type areas to enjoy at various times of the day. The staff is extremely helpful in making your visit comfortable and enjoyable. Finally, our check out was at noon but our flight wasn’t until later that night. They give you a bracelet to still enjoy the bars, restaurants and entertainment until you leave for your flight home. I would certainly recommend Tamarijn All Inclusive to anyone and will be returning as often as possible.

  LOVE this resort but disappointed in the changes

  We have stayed at the Tamarijin in 2021, 2023 & 2025. We stayed at Divi in 2004 (honeymoon). We LOVE this resort. We have stayed at the Tamarijin side for the last 3 trips to Aruba due to the family friendly and fun atmosphere. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because they don't do the dinner buffet anymore on the Tamarijin side and they took down the 2nd bar and put in a shallow pool with lounge chairs that noone seemed to use but toddlers. Also, there is a lack of entertainment on the Tamarijin side. Most of the entertainment is on the Divi side. The Divi pool was not skimmed in the mornings and full of dead mosquitoes so we stayed at the Tamarijin pool for our full stay. The staff is outstanding, the food is good and housekeeping did a great job.
