This was my 7th time at the resort and it did not disappoint! We did the E-bike and snorkel tour, which is included in your stay! Zef and Donny were amazing and super fun tour guides! It’s a work out but worth it! We saw 4 sea turtles and amazing fish.

We had an amazing 4 night stay at your resort. Food was excellent, no long waits and super friendly staff. Highly recommend for a beautiful, easy escape. We were able to eat at most of the restaurants on property- club Margot and the red parrot were our favorites.

Returned 1/11/25 from our 2nd trip to the ARUBA Tamarijn. Everyone was professional, the food was very good, staff is hard working. HIRE more security to walk the property ALL DAY. MANY people without wristbands occupying lounge chairs in front of guest rooms. One man approached by security- his response, was to go for a swim, then returned to the lounge chair, security never returned. A group of 3 adults occupying 3 lounge chairs in the 2200’s beach area, no wristbands of any type visible. The worst, in front of activities center the large palapa had a small sign stating the area, lounge chairs, and 2 outdoor day beds for resort GUESTS ONLY. BUT ARE occupied by cruisers & people vacationing in the area. No wristbands on any of the party of 5 one day or the party of 6 the next. 1/7/25- Party of 6 occupied 5 loungers we were using 2 of them, I saw the woman in the group walk over to the 1100 building and removed a lounger in front of a guest room and brought it to her family group in front of the activities center. They occupied the comfy daybed as well. On 1/8/25 by a cruise ship worker stated she came to this location every time the UK ship was in dock, her favorite spot. With multiple staff members 15 feet away, not one staff person checked to see if they were guests of ANY resort. Unable to enjoy the area as it was occupied by freeloaders. I’m well aware the Druid beach is public, lots of people shared the beach, but invading the areas that guests paid $700-$800 per day to enjoy was disappointing. MORE security IS NEEDED to move the cruisers and interlopers over to the public beach area, and PLEASE add this “duty” to the ACTIVITY staff. One staffer approached the cruise ship worker only to tell her he needed to collect the cushions at 4 pm. Never checking a wristband. Daily I saw beach guests using shampoo & showering at building 1100s foot wash area. GROSS.

We had a lovely time. We have done quite a few all inclusives at this point in our lives, mostly when we are with the kids. Our favorites are usually Club Med. This was nice, however. The restaurants were some of the best we have had at an all inclusive. They were eclectic and weren’t simply repurposed buffet from the same kitchen. Each restaurant had very unique and individually prepared meals and the ambience in each was fantastic. Our favorites have been Red Parrot (NYE dinner) and Club Margot. Tonight is our last night and we will be eating at Ginger. The rooms are fine for an all inclusive. We are two adults and two young teenagers. And while we would have preferred a suite like option, they were totally manageable for the four of us. The rooms faced the ocean, which was quite nice. The beach that connects the Tamarjin with the Divi was fantastic and it was barely a walk. There was also a smaller beach at the Tamarjin, which would probably be better suited for parents with little ones so they can also enjoy themselves while the kids play. The fitness center was one of the better ones we have been to at an all inclusive. We spent 5 mornings there and enjoyed it a great deal. The various beach bars and small grills were fine. The hospitality of the staff of the hotel and small grills were okay. Nothing to rave about, but nothing to complain about either. The restaurant staff were excellent. The golf carts to take you around were very convenient. We are a very active family so we walked back and forth between the resorts all day long. Was not an issue at all. We have been to resorts were the walks are much, much longer. But if you’re not active, you will be grateful for the golf carts. We spent NYE here and the party at the Tamarjin was fantastic. We all had a really good time and danced the night away. Our two teenage girls roamed the resorts into the evening and we felt generally comfortable about that and safe. We left the resort three times. Once to meet friends, once to go downtown, and once to go on a catamaran trip. Taxis weren’t as easy as we had hoped at this end of the island, they seem to concentrate on Nord, which is much much more commercial. We give it four stars, primarily because we have been to all inclusives where the attention to guests was much more focused from the minute you get off the airport transfer (they don’t have one) to the minute you leave. But don’t let that dissuade you. It was a great vacation, we spent a week here. The kids loved it. The resort is well laid out. The Divi and Tamarjin are essentially the same resort, you get to enjoy all of it. If your considering an all inclusive, moderately priced for a family, this is a good option. We would probably come back.

What a fantastic all-inclusive! First, it is really nice that the resort is only 15 minutes from the airport. Sadly, they do not have airport transport - but I set up a private transfer using Viator and that worked well. The resort itself is really nicely decorated. The front desk was helpful and the place was really clean! I don't think I saw any trash anywhere on the beach and the rooms were comfortable. I stayed at the Tamarijn and the ocean view is spectacular! The rooms are not fancy but they have everything you need. It was nice to be able to use the pools at Divi and the golf carts to get around the resort were nice - because the resort is really large and spread out. The beach was beautiful and it was nice to be able to just walk out into the soft sand and swim or snorkle. Even in December the water was not too cold! The food was actually amazing! While the dinner buffet was nothing special, the restaurants were delicious! My favorite was Ginger and my least favorite was Red Parrot. Really the only downside of the place was that Tamarijn guests could not order at some of the Divi locations. That made it a little awkward when some of the group stayed at the Divi and others stayed at the Tamarijn. I would also say that I went over Christmas and while there were some Christmas trees and lights, it really didn't feel like Christmas and they weren't really playing any Christmas music or anything (which was fine just had different expectations). I would definitely come back!
