"The hotel is in prime location to all the local restaurants, bars, and shops. The grounds of the hotel are the most beautiful on the island and the pool is great for kids and you are steps away from the beach"
"Divi is a well maintained resort.
Pros: Great food, absolutely beautiful beach right off the resort, great staff, clean rooms.
Cons: Entertainment was lacking. No music by the pool during the day and the night entertainment was only until 11 pm, when drinking and having a good time that is too early. No room service or mini bar/water in the room, a lot of kids! Yes it a family resort, but too many kids for my taste."
"The staff was generally very friendly and helpful. The grounds are beautiful. We felt safe on the property. Overall, my wife and I had a wonderful time. However, considering the Hilton’s resort fee, one should not have to pay an extra fee to get a palapa closer to the water. Also, most of the palapas did not have hooks on them, so our beach bag was out of view if we left it by our palapa. Lastly, beware of cab drivers overcharging from and back to the airport. This time we were charged $41 from the airport to the Hilton and then we were charged $45 from the Hilton to the airport. We were just in Aruba this past December and stayed at the Hilton and our cab fare was $35 both ways."
"Modern Condo style stay in Aruba with great pools including an infinity pool.
The hotel is in great proximity to the strip (with many shops/restaurants/bars), as well as the beach (free shuttle).
The restaurant and coffee shop onsite were convenient.
The rooms are fairly large, clean and modern (no stove). The balconies on the higher floors offer a great view of the ocean and well maintained grounds.
All staff were super friendly and helpful. I appreciated the efforts of Joey, Dondre, Santos, Janelle, Alex and Siguerd to name a few.
Quieter hotel with some noise coming from the nearby road (strip) at night.
Overall great stay and appreciated the reasonable rates."
