How much are you paying for your Aruba HM???

We are trying to figure out how much is 'normal' to book our HM to Aruba. We are going to Disneyfor 3 days and then to Aruba for 7 nights/6 days. Anyone know how much this could be for the 2 of us?

It depends on what time of year you go and what hotel you stay in.
We are going in June and are staying at the The Radisson. Are room is $400 a night, $480 with tax. Are room is a ocean view deluxe on the concierge floor. You could get a partial ocean view on the same floor for cheaper. It includes breakfast, coffee and tea in the afternoon, and cocktails and hors doeuvres in the evening. Also you get a personal concierge to book any dinner reservations or trips. You could go cheaper and you could go more expensive. I think the cheapest room is $240 a night and the most expensive is $900 a night. It depends on what room you choose.
The Hyatt prices were pretty much the same. Hyatt also had the concierge service room, if that is what you would want.

I am pretty sure the most expensive hotels on the island are Radisson,Hyatt and Marriott.

They do have an all-inclusive, but I have not heard the best reviews.

Check out Delta Song for a flights. On Saturdays only, they have non-stop flights to Aruba. Unfournately, we could not leave on a Saturday, so we took just Delta. The flight was a little over $600 each round trip.

Also, they have this thing called the dine around program. It is a set price you pay for dinner all week. Here is the website http://www.aruba.com/aga/dinearound.html
We are going to do 5 dinners for $177 each. That way we can go to a couple of restaurants that are not on the list. We are going to Aruba for 10 days 9 nights.

I see that you are going in October. I know that Arubas most popular season is the winter. I am not quite sure if October is considered the winter.

FM me if you have any questions. I also have more prices if you want them. Sorry so long!!!

Thanks so much Allison!!! Very helpful. I think we want to stay in at th Marriot and we are going to arrive in Aruba on October 19th because we are going to Disney for a few days. We plan on leaving Aruba on the 26th. I am still trying to price out places, but we know that we dont want all inclusive because we are not huge drinkers. Thanks for your help!

Anyone else?

I was just checking out the Radisson site about prices, and they have honeymoon packages now. You should see if the Marriott has anything like this. I couldn't get any prices for your date, so it must be to far away. I went as close as I could get and the prices are the same as the summer.

Definitely check out the dine around program. They have a lot of popular restaurants to choose from. Good Luck!!!

I love Disney, I go every year!!!!!!

Thanks again Allison. I will definately look around at HM packages. I know October is a popular month because it is out of the hurricane circle and it is still warm there. I am not sure how much that affects the package prices. FH and I are going to talk to a travel agent tomorrow. We'll see how that goes
