Great resort and great beach! Staff was very friendly and accommodating. I was able to get tours scheduled promptly as they came directly to the property. Transportation was easy and accessible to downtown Aruba.
Please Don’t Pay for “Upgrade”. My Advise is to Avoid

We arrived at the Divi Golf and Beach Club yesterday. We had two rooms reserved. One for our adult kids in regular rate room. We paid for an upgrade to oceanfront lanai for husband and I. The kids room is modern and in great condition. Our room I reminds me of a red roof inn. Completely unacceptable in an all inclusive resort. I have attached some photos They will move us today but to a regular room and no compensation. As an avid traveler with diamond status at Hilton and titanium at Marriott, I know what to expect. This hotel definitely does not provide it. Walls damaged sheets are scratchy and only two towels in your room. There ia no bar soap and the conditioner in the shower is actually body lotion. Bring your own supplies!! No water provided in room which is very annoying. It just does not feel like an all inclusive to me. No information about activities given upon arrival so you are on your own to figure it all out. They also don’t take you to your room so good luck finding it with all your luggage in tow. Prior to staying here we spent Want to know anything? You have to go all the way to tamarin hotel to get activity info. Why can’t that be provided upon arrival? We also made golf reservations through concierge but no actual reservation was made when we showed up in AM We spent three nights at the embassy suites prior to going to Divi and we wish we would have remained there. Much better resort with more value hands down. If you are deciding where to book in Aruba choose a different spot.

My family went for Christmas 2025. We have stayed at Divi Golf in Aruba every year for at least 4 years. We loved the 1BR suit because it gave my wife and I a separate space to sleep away from the kids. My only complaint about the room is that the shudders in the bedroom let a lot of sunlight in. They need to add blackout curtains, I have suggested this before. We loved the fact that although a little overpriced, which is expected in Aruba we could purchase the all inclusive package and eat at any restaurant at all four resorts. The beach wasn't the best but it was good enough. The pool and the staff were wonderful. Unfortunately I do not think we will be back for several reasons: 1) The staff was not what it used to be. They would ride past me on their golf carts and not ask if we wanted a ride to the lobby or a restaurant. . While on a golf cart one driver directly ordered my kids to sit upfront with me. Traditionally my teenage daughters could sit wherever they wanted. I agreed and told them to sit with me. They complained and I told them to sith behind me. The driver said to me "YOU ARE NOT A GOOD FATHER. YOUR KIDS DON'T LISTEN TO YOU. YOU ARE TOO SOFT". He said it in a heavy Dominican accent. He proceeded to lecture me how to raise my kids. My wife is also Dominican and they started arguing in Spanish. I've been in law enforcement for over 20 years and I came to Aruba to relax, not argue. I let it go. My wife was very upset. That was the FIRST DAY. Also, I made reservations at the concierge desk for one of the restaurants TWICE just to show up and find out I didn't have a reservation. Apparently if the desk doesn't confirm the reservation you don't have one. They told me they confirmed but didn't confirm twice. We had to find another place to eat. 2)THE FOOD- I purchased the same all-inclusive pass I do every year just to find out when I got there they changed the policy. The regular all inclusive pass was only good for restaurants at Divi Golf. It used to be good for all the restaurants. They started a higher level all inclusive meal package that would allow me to eat at all the restaurants. It would have cost me an additional $2000. This is one of the major selling points for me to stay at Divi Golf. It was already priced a little high and definitely not worth an additional $2000. I was told that if I wanted to eat at another resort I had to pay for it over there separately. Breakfast for example was $35 per person. That's a lot for a meal that used to be included. Also, The food at the buffet at Divi Golf is not as good as the buffet at the other resorts. They remodeled the buffet but it's still not as good. They do have 2 nice restaurants but it's not worth even the regular all inclusive price. I could go to an off-resort restaurant and pay the same or less for better food. Breakfast closes EVERYWHERE at 11AM. No brunch menu at all so forget about sleeping late if you want breakfast food. The liquor included with the all-inclusive is very cheap. If you want to upgrade you have to pay the full price for the drink. So unfortunately I don't think i'll be staying there again. I love Aruba so I will be back at a different resort.
