Renaissance aruba resort en casino

Some family resorts, as great as they are, can make guests feel isolated when they’re located quite far from all the excitement of their destination. That’s not the case with the Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino, which is located in the heart of downtown Oranjestad, the island’s bustling capital. It is seamlessly integrated into the town’s marina area, with an upscale shopping mall in the resort itself, and tours and watersports galore.

The resort is actually two properties in one; on the landward side is the Marina property, containing rooms that are exclusively for adults. The lobby is dramatically appointed with white marble columns (think Roman amphitheater), and the property houses a casino and adults-only pool overlooking the marina. Even though this area caters to adults, it still offers several family-friendly restaurants, open to all guests. Ocean Suites, the hotel’s other property, is located across the street on the harbor itself. Its suites, pool and small beach area offer a quiet, calm atmosphere.

One of the resort’s most attractive features, however, can’t be found at either property. The Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino owns a private island, just a short boat ride away, retained exclusively for use by its guests. The island includes both a family-friendly and adults-only beach area that makes up for the lack of beachfront property at the resort itself. Nevertheless, if it’s beaches you’ve come looking for, the Renaissance Aruba Resort & Casino may not be the best choice for you, lacking the miles of white sand offered by the hotels of the high-rise and low-rise districts north of the city. If you’ve come to experience Aruba and feel like you are a part of the island community, however, there’s no better choice on the island.
