We visit the Tamarjin 3-4 times per year and have been doing so since 3/23. We take our children and grandchildren with us every Thanksgiving. We love the variety of food options all of which are very good. The ocean view from all of the rooms is truly amazing. The entire staff is super friendly. One in particular is Lilly at the front desk. She is super friendly and helpful.

This is an incredible island with great people. The staff is incredible from reception, kitchen, bars, cleaning. Just to name a few: Lilly, Nelson, and many more made us feel welcome.

My family and I just returned from the DV Tamarijin we don’t have enough good things to say about the hotel. It’s our second year in a row staying there and there’s a reason that families keep coming back here year after year. From the views, to the amenities and gym, to the restaurants, this hotel has everything you need. The best dinner we had was at Margot with an award-winning bartender who made the best drinks we’ve ever had. Not to mention the food and desserts - yum! Our kids went to the kids club every day and they were constantly asking to go back. The staff were amazing and had a ton of activities each day to keep them busy. We were all so sad that we had to leave. Dayenne and Brenda are literally the best people you’ll ever meet: caring, friendly, helpful and sincere. We will definitely be back again! :D

The restaurants are good once you get a reservation, which for the first two days is challenging. You need your room number to book, and you can only book two days out, but the food is very good. Service is friendly, and the rooms, while basic for the price are adequate. We stayed in building 21, which has an excellent rock free beach. If kids bother you, avoid this area. Likewise, if noise bothers you avoid the south end. There is a local nightclub near by and you feel the bass from early afternoon until 2pm. We made a room request for the main floor closer to the restaurants due to disability. Neither was granted and sleep has been difficult for me as I am quite noise sensitive, and nothing blocks the vibration. WE will not stay here again or recommend it. We might try the Divi, but if room locations can't be facilitated we will have to go elsewhere. It's a good resort, but they need to accomodate reasonable room requests. Not much they can do about offsite noise though.

First, I want to say we had an amazing time in Aruba. The resort was massive, but the golf cart shuttles made that much easier. Let’s start with the best parts. The food was nothing short of fantastic. The service inside the restaurants was also very good. Club Margot had the best cocktails and the bartenders there were top notch. We definitely have to give a shout out to Betsy. The entertainment was mostly disappointing, the live band was nice. The resort was well maintained and clean. Now let’s go with the not as good things. The bar service was very spotty at the other bars. The drinks were spotty as well. Not that there was not some good mixed in. The fact you could not get a drink before 11am was a little odd too. The beach was very good, but rocky in spots. Definitely not a deal breaker. So overall it was a great trip. Not sure if I would go back to this resort. Would like to see some other options first.
