We are!! We're staying at the Riu.

Its great if you want:
new facilities
all inclusive
water sports

If your a foodie I dont recommend it. But if you like a couple of coctails during the day like us, it could be awesome!

we're staying at the mariott surf club.....we have a time share and it was one of the few options to choose from

i do hear that the food is expensive to an all inclusive may be good.....but apparently they have some fabulous restaurants and with an all inclusive you would waste money....so keep that in mind when booking

we stayed at the radisson when we were in aruba. we LOVED it. that pool was awesome and they have a great poolside bar/snack shack. we didnt do the all inclusive because i am very picky with food. we found it better to do our own thing and choose our own restaurants.

good luck!

We stayed 5 days at the Hyattt which is in the high rise section. So it was more convenient to get around to things and we also stayed at the Bucuti for 5 days which was in the low rise section. Bucuti was definitely more private and the beach was absolutely goregous. It just took us a little longer to get to places. If you rent a car it really doesn't matter though.

We're staying at the Renaissance Marina Hotel. They have a private beach that a boat takes you to...only 5 min boat ride.

Its all inclusive, has 15 restaurants, close to town and mall, and adults only!

Anyone ever stay there or is staying there?? I havent seen anyone say that theyve been there or stayed there for as long as ive been on here =( Are we picking a good place???

We stayed at Bucuti Beach which is in the low rise section or Palm Beach. It was gorgeous. We loved it there, its very peaceful. If you want relaxation this place is wonderful.

This is where we're staying!

Although we're huge foodies, we can't afford to spend money a-la-carte in the restaurants (like if we stayed at the Hyatt), so we chose all-inclusive.

We haven't booked yet but we def want to do the Hyatt. The grounds won me over! I am a picky eater so I dont mind spending $ on food
