Thanks to the Aruba Tourism Authority for sponsoring my trip and this site inspection. 


The Holiday Inn Aruba is a family resort on Palm Beach. It has three towers: Palm, Ocean and Sea. An all-inclusive option can be added for an additional fee. The resort has special shows on Wednesday and Saturday.  All rooms have balconies.

Important to know: 
  • Sea tower has an adult pool with free cabanas. People come at 4 am to reserve them. Hopefully, in the future, a reservation system will be in place.  
  • Sea tower is next to a loud bar until 1 am.
  • Palapas are given out at 345 pm by lottery for the next day. The resort has 115 palapas and 590 rooms. 
  • Beach service is available for food and drinks.
