Palaces in Aruba

"10/10"

"Second time in Aruba and second time at Brickell Bay (TRYP). Love them both. More economical than beachfront, but only a 5 minute walk. Staff is amazing. In the middle of everything."

"Selection of food was plentiful and delicious. It was nice not worrying about making reservations. I would have liked to be able to take a salad from the buffet to the beach, but it was frowned upon. They do have hamburgs, hot dogs, chicken patties, french fries beachside during lunch. Again, it was very good. Many people bring "YETIs" or large metal drink containers for their drinks since the cups are about 8 oz. We did have dinner off site one night since we enjoy many restaurants on the island. The staff was so pleasant and accomodating. The beach area is large. The palapa reservation is a bit sketchy. We found the staff putting out towels on chairs at 3:30 am!! So when you arrive at the beach it looks as though all palapas are taken. Staff is available to "look" for a palapa. Some areas of the property need updating, but overall the property is beautiful. A bit disappointed in the gym facility. 1 out of 3 treadmills was in service as well as the elliptical. Plenty of free weights, pully area. I did not however, have an issue with access to any of the equipment when accessed at 7am and 4pm. Plenty of entertainment at night, and some skits are completely hysterical. Guests seem to enjoy them. Bingo activity at the pool during the day. Live music throughout the day. I was pleasantly surprised since we usually stay at The Grand Hyatt. "

"Every thing "

"Very nice"

"Property was clean and professional staff"

"The rooms were a little lack luster but it was clean. The beds were comfortable. I feel it was a little expensive for the room but we were happy staying there and would again."

"Very nice and exclusive property with a beautiful beach. Not much more you can ask for. "

"Booked a UTV tour through the property that was terrible. The vehicles were old and our first vehicle was unsafe without any brakes putting our family at risk during our trip. "
