Went here as a couple for our first time in Aruba. Can't beat the location of this place, and its more affordable than other hotels in the area. The location is very central, creating opportunities to walk around the town and have many restaurant options within walking distance. Breakfast buffet has a nice spread and was a highlight. Reservations are recommended for dinners at the hotel. Pool seating is oddly limited, but there are many available spots at the beach only steps away and chairs can be moved to accommodate groups. The hotel is older. The gym and interior is outdated but as a trade-off, the total space was nice and included a balcony (tower 7).

We loved our stay at The Holiday Inn Aruba. The hotel is very clean. The food and drinks were excellent. Highly recommend doing the all inclusive. The beach is stunning with clear turquoise water and powder soft sand. We would def stay at The Holiday Inn Aruba again. Shout out to Hugo, Smitty, Jhon, Juliette, Roy, Victor, Jimmy, and many other fabulous staff!!

My wife and I had our 40th wedding anniversary celebration here February 14th to the 20th 2026. We were pleased with all aspects of the hotel. The only complaint I had was when swimming off the beach, there was a slight sewage smell in the water. I know Aruba has some sewage issues overall and hopefully it will be remedied in the future.

We had another great stay at the Holiday Inn Aruba Resort. We visited as a couple and spent a week there in mid-November. Just like on previous trips, the experience was excellent from start to finish. The staff are genuinely welcoming and always ready to help. The property is kept in great shape — everything feels clean, well-maintained, and comfortable, including the rooms. We enjoyed the breakfast buffet every morning. The selection is broad, the made-to-order omelets are a nice touch, and the self-serve coffee machines make it easy to get the style you like. The location is another big plus. It’s right on Palm Beach, with plenty of restaurants, shops, and local attractions just a short walk away, so you never feel far from anything you might want to do. Overall, it was another relaxing and enjoyable stay, and we will definitely return.

What an amazing stay. No better location. With so many hotels to choice from, the holiday inn is perfect in size. With a huge beach , and access to all the amenities the hotel has to offer , you don’t have to walk 15 mins to get to your room. Everything is so close. I loved it. I 100 precent will be making this a yearly trip. Thank you to all the staff for their honesty smiles , hospitality and good energy!!!!
