"The staff are nice when you are interacting with them. The pool is a nice size, nice swim up bar. AC in the room works. There’s no negative remarks I would make. I, along with my family and friends enjoy our stay at Barcelo Aruba & will plan to go back."
Holiday Inn Resort Aruba - Beach Resort & Casino by IHG
8/10 Good
"Right on the beach, great location for walking to restaurants and shops. All in all a good place to stay. The room we had def could have used some updating but it was clean and beds were comfortable."
"Lots of restaurants nearby. Great daily activities held by the hotel. And access to Renaissance Island via the direct water taxi was really convenient"
"Clean room, but no utensils provided. Paper plates and wooden forks and spoons were brought after we asked for it. No real knives either only wooden, disposable that you can’t really cut anything with. "
"The pool was refreshing and the activities were fun , the buffet was really good a lot of different choices and fresh fruits . The employees were very friendly and helpful I really loved staying at the Riu in Aruba , this was my first time in Aruba staying at the Riu palace I stayed for 9 days , I did 4 excursions I had the time of my life . Can't wait to come back . Just bring sunscreen "
