Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino

We truly enjoyed our stay at this Marriott. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The rooms and common areas were clean and updated. I would recommend this hotel resort to families and couples.

Nice hotel, good service. Staff is nice and helpful. The biggest issue is getting a palapa or cabana for the day. There is limited number and you have to reserve one at 4pm for the other day. The problem is people are lining up from before 3pm and you have to stay in line for hours. The food is overpriced but good in the hotel. There is a nice Cuban […] restaurant downtown with superb food and great atmosphere we can recommend. Read more

This is the second or third time we have stayed at the Marriott aand we have been staying at Marriotts all over the world for the last 50 years We enjoyed this stay except for two things that happened on the last day. One the casino mixed up our play credits and just Ssimply refused to look into it and make any adjustments. We had played for 4 days […] and had lost about 500 dollars on slots and they said I only acummulated 500 points and had no credits in dollars. My wife played about the same amount and only had 50 points. Other Marriott casinos such as the one in StKitts are much friendlier. I will not return to this MAARRIOTT FOR THIS REASON. Secondly when we were ready to leave Palm tours left us at the hotel and we had to take a taxi to the airport. I am filing a complaint with expedia regarding this matter. Read more

Wonderful Hotel stay. Its a beautiful hotel on the beach in the north end of the "High Rise section". about a 20 minute walk from the restaurants and shops in that area The rooms were nice and the grounds were immaculate. We had a minor issue with the electrical outlets not working in the bathroom, but everthing else was ok. The staff really make this […] place and go out of they're way to assist you in anything you may need. Read more

A complete, quiet and confortable place to stay in family, with several facilities and options for a funny vacations. The beach is so beatifult, I think it is the most beautiful in the island. Staff is so nice and helpul. Location also is good, near to shopping centers and downtown.

Great hotel on the main strip of Aruba. Beautiful rooms and has everything you need including an adult pool area and tennis courts.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The hotel grounds are beautiful. The pools and beach are perfect. We stayed in the premium ocean view room and the view was amazing. The room service was amazing. We ordered a few things over our week stay and it was such a treat. The cafe in the lobby is quite a hot spot. AMAZING desserts and donuts and sushi. My only complaint about the room is the […] pillow are horrible. They are down and they get super flat in 2 seconds. Also, the sheets are like sleeping on notebook paper. I would think the Marriott could afford some nicer sheets! There are just a couple things I would note for people looking to stay here: 1. it is at the very far end of the beach. Every service, food, drink, snack in and surrounding the hotel is very pricey. If you want to find more reasonable prices you have to walk down the beach a ways. If you take a cab anywhere it's more pricey since you are at the very far end of everything. Next time we would probably stay more in the Hyatt area. It's more in the middle of everything. Read more

Hotel and staff were good...the food was mediocre at best and way over priced. Better value at restaurants off site.

This hotel was very beautiful. The swimming pool for adults was top notch!!!! Very clean and tidy!!! Awesome hotel. I just joined the Rewards Club at the time that I checked in..

Genuine Expedia guest review

My boyfriend and I spent six nights at the Marriott and had a wonderful stay. The amenities were wonderful and the staff was very friendly. As with most nicer resorts, the food was expensive, so we brought snacks and bought groceries for breakfasts and lunches and only went out to eat for dinner each night. If you're in the mood for a movie, a 3-D film […] at the nearby cinema was only $5.50 per person USD. The local shopping complex also seemed to have free entertainment in the center courtyard most nights. If you like iguanas, watch for the daily iguana feeding at the Marriott building next door where you can feed lettuce to them if you'd like - one of the highlights for the two of us who love animals!

Great Hotel, Staff is friendly and hotel is very clean.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The room was clean. Hot water was abundant and the water pressure of the shower was good. The air conditioning was satisfactory although I'm not so sure that the room actually was 64 degrees as the thermostat stated. We were in a room that faced the construction(North) so the sun was not a factor with regard to heating the room. The in-room safe and […] mini-fridge functioned properly. The grounds are immaculate. The beach is large with many available recliners even for those not reserving the palapas. The condition of common facilities/services such as the gym, restrooms, ice machines, etc were all in good working order and very clean. The staff is very helpful as well. Read more

A very nice hotel, for everyone. The area is close to the shops and restaurants and directly on the amazing beach of Aruba. I'll recommend this hotel to everyone.

Genuine Expedia guest review

We had a great time spending Thanksgiving in Aruaba at the Marriott. The hotel and service was great, we have already booked another trip..A few hints. The junior suite is worth the extra money with the wrap around porch and ocean view. The tradewind package really isnt because everything else is so awesome. THe food and drinks are really pricey, mixed […] drinks 11.00 and sodas 4.00. So take a cab to superfoods and stock your room up. If you can pack a soft cooler than fill it when going to the beach or pool you will save alot. Getting the breakfast included is worth it (the buffet is 39.00 if you dont get it included). The good thing is breakfast is served until noon. She we ate at 11;00 and with the prime rib, ham, omlet station etc, we were full until dinner...well worth it. Local resturants for local food and good prices: Peanuts, and LeGranda..awesome. Also the cadamaran boat tours with snorkeling is awesome..open bar:)..Take a trip to baby beach...wonderful...Cab fares range from 22.00 from airport, 6.00-9.00 to local spots..take singles and fives....have fun!!

Our third trip to Aruba, our second to this hotel. Honestly came back, not just because we like Aruba, but specifically because we LOVE this hotel. Their attention to detail is second to none. Have a wide variety of restaurant choices (wasn't thrilled with La Vista though), the room was immaculate, large, comfortable, great balcony. Great location, […] on the beach but close to shopping areas, other hotels/restaurants LOVE, LOVE the H2Oasis pool. Is for adults only. Is quiet and beautifully landscapped. Have cabanas for rent ($50 per day), staff provides water/fruit tray, takes food/drink orders. I believe they take food/drink orders from all guest at the pool, not just the cabana. We had a couple of minute issues (bath drain stopper didn't work, didn't get enough towels from housekeeping), the staff responded immediately. We were also called back for follow up to make sure issue was resolved. I can't say enough about the staff and the personalized attention. Lobby is beautiful. Has a few shops, a nice bar area, live music certain evenings and a great pastry/sandwich bar. Also has a family pool which is very nice. Great restaurant right on the beach "Simply Fish" nice way to enjoy a beautiful sunset and good food. Has game rooms for kids. Didn't use them, but seemed nice and kid friendly. From the time they greet you at check in with a glass of punch until the time you leave, you really feel spoiled. Read more

We had a fantastic corner suite with a connecting room for our kids. Loved the wrap around balcony that allowed you to sit in shade or sun plus the view was great. You are close to the ocean and it is not noisy. The huts are a must for shade so I highly recommend reserving. You can reserve in the morning at no cost. The huts at the Marriott are closer […] to the water than what you will get at the Surf Club plus it is less busy. Our family really enjoyed tubing plus our afternoon on the Jolly Pirate. Jeep tour to the Natural Pool was also a highlight. Overall food was good quality but typical hotel prices. There are a number of other restaurant options close by. Generally everyone on the island are incredibly friendly. We'd go again and stay at the Marriott (not Surf club or Ocean club). I'd recommend the Surf club if you have small children. Lots of kids for the lazy river pool. Read more

We spent our honeymoon at this hotel and it exceeded our expectations. It was very clean, the staff was very professional, and the shops and restaurants located in the hotel were very convenient. Aruba, overall is very expensive however it was nice to know that we really didn't have to leave the hotel for anything.

Genuine Expedia guest review

The adult pool that opened recently is beautiful. Makes great even better. Will definitely return. So glad I stayed here instead of the Hyatt.

Genuine Expedia guest review

It was not what the site puts out there. The staff is so slow to do everything and very disappointing. The pool was dirty most of the time, basically if you have kids don;t go to this hotel your better at going to the Hyatt and enjoy your vacation. i will never go back to this hotel, aruba yes.

The Marriott Stelaris is a very nice hotel. It is definitely in the top 2 hotels along the high rise area. I would reccomend this hotel to anybody. The staff is incredibly friendly and are always willing to help with whatever you need. This was our honeymoon and we couldn't have asked for a better trip.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Overall very nice. They need to improve the process of renting beach accessories such as chairs, umbrellas, etc. Also could use better bar service at the pool and beach.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Positive: Very clean and updated. Service and hotel staff was extremely nice and helpful. Restaurants were pretty good, NOT the sushi bar though. It was awful. Pool and beach were great. Negative: The furthest hotel on the High Rise side. Had to reserve a hut instead of first come first serve basis.

Wonderful staff, friendly and informative, good food, clean comfortable room, great beach area. Entire experience was great.

Genuine Expedia guest review

Clean hotel, great beach and location but the service drowned in that beautiful blue water. Everyone moves one mile per hour. Servers could not be found to deliver food or drink at the beach at pool for sometimes over 30 minutes at a time. Also, the spa is a joke - even the staff admits it (outside partnership with Marriott). If you don't care about […] service you will enjoy the beach though!! Read more

This hotel is one of the best on the island. Updated, clean, and family friendly. Beware though, if you pick an adjacent construction view you will hear noise and your view is of a building, but you'll most likely not be in the room much. I plan on going back soon, and will stay at the Marriott again!

Very helpful staff, beautiful oceanview balcony, superior comfort.... Food was pricey as expected on the premises, and the casino hard to not get dealt a 15... but thats the luck of the draw... overall a very positive experience for a first timer, and can def see why people who visit return often....

My husband and I have been to Aruba several times and usually stay at a particular upscale hotel on the island. This year we decided to try the Marriott Stellaris. We are so glad that we did. We stayed in an oceanfront junior suite for seven nights. The facility is spectacular; exceptionally clean, friendly and accommodating staff and a great value […] for all the resort has to offer the vacationer! We will definitely stay tat the Marriott Stellaris on our next visit to the beautiful island of Aruba! Read more

We were greeted with juice while we checked in. The concierge was very helpful & courteous & booked all the sight seeing tours including snorkeling, sailing, bus tours,etc. Downtown shopping is readily available by taxi or bus. The family pool is great or for a more relaxing time there is an adult pool that offers relaxing cabanas & service to your […] chair of food & beverages. There is great shopping at hotel including a small mall. Food can be purchased at reasonable prices at restaurants at the hotel. Anything from bakery, pizza, carribean food to formal dining in the Ruth's Chris Steakhouse. Evening dining on beach is more expensive depending on your taste. The spa services were wonderful but some things were a little pricey for me. My Swedish massage cost $116. ( gratuity included) we liked the fact that you could walk our of hotel to pool and then right on the beach. Parasailing was right there & very reasonable. Our room was nice with 2 queen beds, a balcony with great view, & a spacious bathroom with walk-in closet which includes a safe for your valuables. The staff was very pleasant & helpful. I would recommend this hotel for families, couples, & wedding parties. Read more

Only two big issues. 1) Noise. A new hotel is being built on one side, so the beach is very noisy - not the peaceful oasis we had hoped for. We were also on the south side of the building which was on the same side as the next hotel's a/c unit so the balcony was also very noisy! No outdoor peaceful places to relax. :( 2) Concierge desk. On Fri afternoon, […] there was only one staff member at the desk - a time when several new guests had checked in and many people were trying to plan their next week. We stood in line behind one other guest, who frankly was being difficult, for almost an hour and almost missed our opportunity to go scuba diving which was really the only thing we wanted to do on our vacation. This was not the staff members fault - he was doing the best he could - this was a STAFFING issue and therefore, the manager's mistake. One other issue - it was too far away from all of the restaurants and shopping. We spent a fortune on cabs getting us to where we could entertain ourselves. Read more

Beautiful hotel. Amazing service and staff. Great views. Those are the reasons you pick this hotel. The bad is that everything is expensive. Budget twice what you think you need for food.

The experience was beyond our expectations. The hotel was very nice, the location and scenary was absolutely beautiful. The only thing we would recommend is lowering the price of the room service.

Grounds and the lobby were kept clean. Drink prices at the hotel are very over priced. Other items expensive but not as bad as the drink prices.

LOVELY hotel amazing staff and i cant wait to return..

Genuine Expedia guest review

overall quite a good experience. We are not interested in gambling, so the on premises Casino was of some concern, but it was non-intrusive, and easily avoided. The beach was nice, but it is important to get in line for a hut early (before 730am), otherwise you will miss out.

Very happy with experience. Staff very willing to help and please you. Beverly at the desk is very friendly, kind and professional.
