Radisson Blu Aruba

Booked a last minute trip to Aruba and wasn't sure where to stay. This hotel turned out great, especially for the price. The grounds are clean and have greenery and pools. The upstairs has an adult only infinity pool that looks towards the ocean. Easy, quick walk to the beach (though they have a shuttle too). Close to the busy area with lots of food choices and smaller shops if you want, but also had a calm vibe too. We never experienced excess noise and it was very peaceful. Doesn't have high end finishes in the large suite, but don't let this deter you from booking. It is maintained well and clean and is not dated. We weren't expecting it, but we had a separate living area too. All staff members were friendly and helpful.

This hotel is within walking distance to the main strip. Staff is friendly and helpful. We had a small misunderstanding and Jackson took care of us. He is a great guy as well, had a great conversation with him.
For the cost of the hotel it met all of our needs. It is very clean, two gorgeous pools that are very comfortable and relaxing. Shaded and sun areas throughout. Pool bar (kinda pricey drinks but bogo HH deal), daily activities, yoga, salt scrub and jewelry making class all included.
Buffet breakfast had a nice variety and with made to order omelet’s.
Rooms are spacious with two bathrooms. Very convenient with two teenage girls. Full size fridge but no stove. Cleaning crew was excellent. Free parking, free daily bottled water, beach towels for borrow.
Coming back and will stay here every time.

Our group of five (my daughters, their two best friends, and I) loved our weeklong stay. With a chronic illness, it's hard to predict whether I'll have the energy for outings, so it's always worth a splurge for me to have an oceanview room. We had a three-bedroom unit with a beautiful view, and all of us made a LOT of use of that balcony. Three of us caught a cold, and it was so nice to feel we could relax "at home" without missing out on the beauty of the island.
Once we felt better, this was an ideal home base for excursions (highly recommend Fofoti for their Natural Pool/Baby Beach Jeep tour, and Octopus for their snorkeling catamaran excursion with lunch).
We all agreed that the staff was one of the best things about this property. Everyone was friendly and helpful. The short walk to the beach was worth the trade-off of being having such nice, new accommodations (we'd heard from others that the beachfront options can be less spacious and modern).
My one complaint is that the air conditioning, which could produce Arctic temperatures in the main living area and the larger two bedrooms, didn't do well reaching the third/smaller bedroom in the back. Facilities staff were unable to help despite several visits, and the manager was unwilling to help secure a fan to help direct cool air into the room. I wound up having a small clip-on fan delivered with our grocery order from Superfood (another great service! ), which took the edge off.

My stay at the Radisson Blu Aruba was exceptional from start to finish. The suites are spacious, modern, and impeccably clean, offering all the comfort you could want on the island. The staff truly elevates the experience — warm, attentive, and always willing to go the extra mile. Randy at Blu Tap Cider and Camilo at the Acqua Breeze pool bar made us feel like family.
The location is perfect: close to Palm Beach, great restaurants, and shopping, yet still peaceful and relaxing. The rooftop pool and views are absolutely stunning, especially at sunset. I also loved the on‑site dining options and the overall atmosphere of the property — upscale but still welcoming.
If you’re looking for a beautiful, comfortable, and well‑run place to stay in Aruba, the Radisson Blu is an easy choice. I’ll definitely be returning.

My family and I were absolutely so happy with our stay at Radison Blu. All staff members were so helpful and kind. It made vacation feel so welcoming. The front staff Santos and Peter were great with helping with necessities with our stay and helping us secure taxis for dinners around the island. Our room was spotless and so clean everyday. The pools and grounds are beautiful and just a short walk or shuttle ride to the beach too. We are thankful for a great stay at Radiaon Blu Aruba! I can’t wait to visit again!

This place exceeded every expectation! The two-bedroom, two-bath layout was incredibly spacious—perfect for relaxing and feeling right at home. The living area was open and comfortable, and the kitchen was fully equipped with everything we needed, making it easy to enjoy meals in.
What truly set this experience apart was the staff. Everyone was genuinely friendly, welcoming, and extremely accommodating—they went above and beyond to make sure our stay was seamless. You can tell they really care about their guests.
The bars were fantastic, offering great drinks and a fun atmosphere. And the pool? Absolutely amazing. The rooftop infinity pool was a highlight—stunning views, a relaxing vibe, and the complimentary cabanas were the perfect touch of luxury.
Free parking was a huge bonus, and the cleaning staff kept everything spotless and well-maintained throughout our stay—they were truly on point.
Overall, an outstanding experience from start to finish. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for comfort, style, and top-tier service!

Very nice hotel, great location — so close to the beach, shops, restaurants. All of the staff was great, so friendly and welcoming (Siguerd works in the lobby and is so enthusiastic! ) The woman who hands out towels by the pool and feeds the hotel cat was wonderful, nice to see her smiling face daily. Room was very nice, clean. And the rooftop infinity pool was amazing! Would definitely stay here again!

I highly recommend staying here! The room was super spacious & the service was great. They have an adults only rooftop infinity pool which had a beautiful view of the beach. You’re able to get fresh pool/beach towels everyday as well. The location was convenient and within walking distance to many restaurants. I would stay here again!

From the very first moment, Blue Radisson Aruba Resort makes you feel truly special. There’s a rare balance in the way they host — never trying too hard, never doing too little. Everything flows so naturally and effortlessly that you immediately sense they’ve mastered a kind of “secret ingredient” of hospitality. It’s genuine, warm, and refined without ever feeling forced.
The atmosphere is that of a luxurious home away from home, where you’re welcomed like family. Every interaction with the staff is a delight — they are incredibly friendly, attentive, and remarkably intuitive. They don’t just respond to your needs; they anticipate them, often helping in ways that feel almost impossible. Their dedication turns your stay into a dream-come-true experience in paradise.
The rooms are tastefully decorated with a style that blends elegance and high functionality. Every little detail is thoughtfully considered, making the space not only beautiful but comfortable and easy to live in. The same care extends outdoors — the swimming pools and gardens are beautifully designed, perfectly maintained, and create an ambiance that’s both relaxing and visually stunning. Inside and out, the entire property feels impeccably curated for the best possible experience.
Blue Radisson Aruba Resort is the kind of place where every moment feels privileged, natural, and flawlessly orchestrated. It’s rare to find a resort that gets everything so right — but this one truly does.

Outstanding service from start to finish! The team, especially Peter, Santos, Leyo, and Janelle were incredibly helpful, and went way above expectations to make sure everything was perfect. We stayed at Blu the first and last days of our trip to Aruba, but wish we hadn't booked the nightmare hotel at the Marriott down the street in between our time at Blu. When we returned to Blu on the last day, the team had placed prosecco in our refrigerator with a note welcoming us back to our home away from home. We loved the clean, modern design, which is similar in many ways to our own home. The beach is a very short walk down the street, close to a number of fantastic restaurants and the pool wasn't crowded, housing plenty of lounge chairs (unlike the other hotel). Thank you once again!

We loved our stay at this hotel. Service was great, front desk down to the cleaning staff,, always a smile. A shout out to the beach shuttle guy,, Peter Santos. Very personal and professional with a bit a humor to add. Beach loungers and umbrellas are provided, go early as there are not alot but right infront of Mooba Beach bar,, Palm Beach.
Rooms are large, have almost everything you need. Kitchen has a bare minimum,, wooden utensils, a few cups for coffee and a few paper plates. & coffee machine.
For a longer stay think about paper towels, tissues. There are many grocery stores that will accommodate. There is a small fridge and with a freezer in it.
Water there is very clean and drinkable. Pools areas are very nice, Especially the adults only roof top. GO early to secure a spot.
Location is wonderful.
Hotel offers eating places or you can.
Walk to the kajillion restaurants 2 blocks away.
Free parking for your rental car too.
Hubby rented a bicycle & stored it in front of hotel, no problem.

Very nice accommodations. Room are spacious very clean. The staff is wonderful right from the moment you get off the bus or taxi they greet you and make you feel like you're the most important person. The location is great nice pools the roof top restaurant with infinity pool is great and food is delicious. The views from the upper rooms. Ours was 7th floor spectacular! And only a few minute walk to the beach. So close to absolutely everything!

We had the BEST time at the Radisson Blu Aruba and truly can’t wait to go back!
We traveled with our 1-year-old and 4-year-old, and when traveling with kids, having a room with separation was extremely important to us. We looked at so many hotels on Palm Beach and weren’t finding the space we needed. We were initially hesitant about being slightly off the beach, especially with two little ones, but once we arrived, we realized how quick and easy it was. It was about a 3-minute walk or a 30-second shuttle ride — so convenient!
We stayed in a 2-bedroom ocean view suite, and the room was HUGE, beautifully updated, and spotless. The beds were incredibly comfortable, which is always a win after long beach days with kids.
The staff was amazing from start to finish. A few names we remember are Peter, Santos, and Dondre, but truly every single person we encountered treated us with kindness and respect. That level of service made such a difference in our stay.
The location was perfect — close to restaurants and shops, but still felt peaceful. The pool area had great music, plenty of chairs available, and the pool itself was fantastic for kids. The zero-depth entry and shallow areas made it so easy and stress-free for our little ones. We didn’t spend time at the adults-only rooftop pool, but we did check it out and it looked beautiful.
Every morning the grounds were being groomed and maintained — everything felt pristine and stunning.

My name is Ariel, and I stayed at the Radisson Blu in Aruba with my wife for our honeymoon. Unfortunately, I would not choose to stay here again.
I paid extra for an ocean-view room, but there was no real ocean view. The only way I could even see the ocean was by zooming in 4x on my camera—otherwise, the view was mostly open land. That was very disappointing, especially for a honeymoon.
I will say that the spa was excellent and one of the highlights of our stay.
The hotel is not beachfront, so you either have to walk about 10 minutes to the beach or rely on the hotel shuttle, which wasn’t ideal.
The most frustrating part happened the night before checkout. I politely asked the front desk receptionist if a late checkout was possible, and he immediately said no, then told me I could leave my bags at the front desk and use the gym bathroom to shower. The way this was said felt rude and dismissive, especially given that we were celebrating our honeymoon.
We stayed for about a week, and overall, the experience fell far short of expectations. It’s a shame, considering this was such a special trip for us.

Loved my stay at the Radisson Blu! I have been coming to Aruba for nearly 10 years and this was my first time at the Radisson Blu. The grounds are exceptionally maintained with beautiful manicured zen flora. Wide spacious areas to lounge at by the pool or bar. The absolutely sexiest rooftop pool on the island! You can capture the Gorgeous sunset while taking a swim in the adult only infinity pool. The furniture is clean, sleek and new and along with the hammocks they complement the rooftop atmosphere perfectly.
Above the physical attributes of the hotel are the representatives that manage and operate it. From the moment we stepped foot at the entrance we were greeted by Peter who assisted us with our luggage and brought us water and champagne as we were checking in. He then gave us a tour of our suite and was at our disposal throughout our stay. Jaynah assisted us with our check in. Jaynah is professional and knowledgeable, as she answered all our questions and concerns. Her smile and delightful customer service embodies everything an exemplary employee in the hospitality industry should possess. Jofre, Hayden and Ove were readily available to give us rides to and from the beach. By the end of our stay we knew the entire crew and felt like we were amongst friends.
I will certainly recommend the Radisson and will book future stays here.

Had a fantastic stay here. A very nice hotel, nice pools, clean, etc. Very short walk (or hotel shuttle golf cart) to the beach and restaurants and shopping.
The staff are exceptional. Peter and Santos were super helpful during our stay and also ready with a a good recommendation. Desk staff were also fantastic, and the concierge even assisted us securing a car rental.
Looking forward to visiting again.

This hotel is beautiful, clean and spacious. The pool area has gorgeous landscaping and great areas to sit and relax. Staff are friendly and helpful (shoutout to Santos and Peter). The walk to the beach is so short and for those who don’t like walking 5 minutes, there is a cute little shuttle.
