Which I went to a Motel 6 instead.....
The service is pathetic for a Marriott.The palaba and pool chaise situation is a joke. The casino employees were rude and detached.I went with 5 other couple and we all spent the rest of our casino time at the Ritz.Rented a cabana for $250 one day...ordered lunch and waited 1-1/2 hours for a Buddha Bowl..When I asked to see a supervisor and asked what was the issue....Her response was "I can't tell you that".. The bar at the cabana pool had both the servers AWOL for long periods of time and then we found them on their phones behind the bar hut....The rooms for a Marriott are totally outdated and smelled.....The balcony was full of bird droppings...There can't possibly be a manager checking anything out in this hotel because it's soooo blatantly bad and the issues are so noticeable...I would have to rate a Super 8 or a Motel 6..far above this ..this...I want to say dump...but I'll be nice and say poorly run Hotel......After you get by the lobby and bar area..which is very very nice...the rest is really a low end and disappointing destination in Aruba...AND..I'm sure some manager will write back something about "I'm sad to hear..blah..blah..blah" when what the person should do..is walk into a guest room...walk on the balcony and see the droppings...go into the casino...try yourself to get a palaba..or maybe order a Buddha Bowl at a cabana that costs $250 for the day..with a bar that has the staff hiding behind it on their phones..while BTW..people just took it upon themselves to walk behind the bar and get their own drinks...I'm a Marriott Bonvoy Elite member and spent a couple hundred thousand points on this...which was armed robbery...DO NOT even consider this place.....

Conference Stay
So I stayed at this Marriott because it was where my dental conference was being held. I booked the room thru the conference portal. When I checked in I was given 0 benefits for being a Bonvoy member. When I asked about this they said I was not eligible because I was part of a group. The standards room is just not a good value. The room is outdated with filthy carpets and a mediocre bathroom. Sorta grimey. I have a DMD but trying to figure out the reservation system to get a spot at the pool or beach was just too complicated. Every attempt I made just seemed to fail. Maybe it was me. The customer service overall was nonexistent. I checked in and I checked out. That’s about it. For what this place charges I expected a little more. The one thing people reading this review should know is if you are planning on staying here and spending time at the beach in front of the hotel DO NOT STAY HERE. The reservation process for the beach is ridiculous. I was jealous of the people staying next door at the Ritz. They have a much larger setup on the beach and not so chaotic

Marriott good stay
Here now January 2025. Staff is SUPER friendly and attentive. Hotel is at the end of strip which I like. Plenty of taxis . Bell service was excellent (Jal. Was super sweet ). Service on beach was great. Actually ALL staff were supper friendly. room was clean and updated. A few negatives music at night was so loud!!! Not sure if it was coming from the lobby or pool area. If you’re staying here I suggest getting a room facing the Ritz or the adult pool. Soooo much quieter. Lots of kids at pool area but that doesn’t bother me they were Happy Not enough pool chairs or beach huts. You much reserve at 5:00pm either in person on or on app. And must show up in person by 10am to claim spot. Didn’t have a problem with that. But if we went out for the morning we had difficulty getting a seat in the afternoon. People save pool seats to early and leave their stuff for hours before returning. Not fair. Wish there were more chairs Overall I’m having a great stay.

Love this place!
Year after year we continue to return to this property. Why? The staff and experience is excellent and predictable. Reason for the 4 vs 5 is simply due to the ridiculously high cost of the rooms ( as a high status marriott member - I feel comfortable making that comment/comparison). That aside- it’s a 5. Let’s start w Mercat. Ask for Francis. I have watched his interactions with guests for many years. He greats everyone like family. Remembers what you like from one day to the next. Next the beach staff. John and javier have been there for years. They may not know your name—-but clearly remember you. Both are extremely professional and treat you well to make sure you have what you need each day of your stay. Hannel helped us as well - remembered our preferences from one day to the next. 😀Treat them well! Great staff and experience all around!

Poor beach chair system
Beach chair system is terrible. At 5 PM the day before you need to put in a reservation for the next day in their app. It’s only 20% of the available reservations. If you can’t get one, you try again for the next morning when they release the remaining 80% at 8am. If you get one you have to be there by 10am for your reservation and the system assigns the umbrella by lottery. You have no say in where you are sitting. The main pool area is loud and they play pop music all afternoon.
