Marriott's Aruba Ocean Club ReviewThis is Aruba's poshest timeshare resort featuring modern, comfortable one- and two-bedroom suites. Shaped like a giant U, the six-story building echoes the design of the Aruba Marriott Resort, its sister property next door. The villas at the Ocean Club have a sumptuous look. Hardwoods, dark rattan, and tasteful fabrics create an elegant yet homey feel. All suites hold a full gourmet kitchen. Bar seating separates the kitchen from the semiformal dining room and spacious living room, and an open whirlpool in the king-size bedroom beckons. Vistas from the large balcony take in the ocean and the central rock-and-palm lagoon pool; two-room villas boast two balconies. The pricier oceanfront villas have even larger balconies with spectacular views. Ocean Club guests have full access to the Marriott's impressive array of amenities, including the Mandara Spa, tucked away off the beaten path, which is without peer on the island.

| 2 stars | Frommer's Very Highly Recommended | |
| 3 stars | Frommer's Exceptional |
Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
