This was
our first visit to the Aruba Grand. For us, it was nearly perfect.
The room was comfortable. It included a small fridge and had a nice
set of amenities including bathrobes, which Lee loved. The Grand is
right on the beach, where the attendants are wonderful, the water warm and
the sand white and fine. The resort is small enough that there is no competition for
beach huts. The pool is quite nice. Its configuration is a simple
rectangle. There is a casino. Though the slots are tight, the
tables had lots of action. The on-site restaurant, the Seawatch, is
excellent. There is another restaurant, offering burgers and
sandwiches, but we did not try it.
On Wednesday night there was a manager's cocktail party at the pool bar
with lots of drinks and fine nibbles. We asked for a room close to an elevator and were given room 425 -- close to the elevator and to the (quiet) ice machine as well. Views from the room included a great one of a visiting cruise ship. |
