All the units are oceanfront so you have great views. If you want to walk out of your room to a sandy beach also be prepared to do a lot of walking within the resort, as it is spread out, not like staying in a high rise hotel. We stayed in room 1104 which was the farthest most room, 2nd floor, boulders out front but still an ideal location for us. We were close to the restaurants and lobby and a 2 minute walk the other direction to Divi beach where we would secure our spot after breakfast. Only Bldgs 18-25 have a sandy beachfront but you will walk quite a distance for all your meals. The Tamarijn is adult-oriented and not ideal for kids and we saw few in October. We took a taxi to the high-rise area and shops at night. We thought the Tam pool was too sunny, noisy and crowded. We only went to the Dutch village pools and there is a bathroom to use nearby at Bldg 17 or 18, opposite the Bunker Bar. Would have liked to have seen a pool attendant during the day to clean out leaves but whatever. Seems almost all maintenance is done during night hours. We always filled our Yeti at the bar first and our free water bottles with tap water which is fine and there are ice machines located every other bldg. The towel exchange is kind of far from pool so we only exchanged every other day. The Tam is eliminating plastic waste which is admirable so couldn't even buy single waters in the resort store. Both Tam and Divi had nice stores for browsing. We took the shuttle daily back and forth from outside the lobby to the Divi. Don't expect it to pick you up at your room, though if you ask you can get dropped off on the way back. Agree there should be more bell boys and shuttles near the lobby on weekends with so many check-ins and departures. We usually went to Divi at night for the music, checked schedule on App. The music only goes til 10pm at the Tam and 11pm at Divi. We never heard music or drum beat from our room. There are 2 rest rooms in the lobby, the largest one is behind Reception desk. They were always clean. We tried all the specialty restaurants at both resorts except Pure Lime because my husband doesn't like Mexican so I had tacos at the buffet. We made dinner reservations for first two nights before we left home from the App. While there the App didn't work well so we had to wait in line each morning at the Concierge for reservations 2 days out which was a minor annoyance. We ate dinner at the Divi buffet once since the Tam buffet is only open B and L. You need to take your time at the buffet and read ALL the signs as there are many choices to order. Lots of fruit, salads and smoothies too. They give you an annoying buzzer but your food is ready in minutes. Breakfast crepes were great and the wait service was very good and friendly at all the restaurants. They don't leave s&p at the table because it's 90 degrees and humid. Just ask! We always left small cash tips. Also pizza at main bar is very good for late afternoon or evening snack. We thought there was sometimes a lack of restaurant management and coordination of reservations with the concierge. At The Red Parrot the hostess had to set tables while we waited and there were empty tables that could have accommodated more guests. We had no issues with the adult beverages because we know specialty drinks everywhere are sugary! You can order straight alcohol if you prefer. They have mimosas at breakfast only on Sunday. You can order alcohol at buffet at lunchtime too. Our room was on the small side, not enough hooks to hang wet clothes but we've encountered that problem before. Not enough towels first day but easy to get more from maid service and keep rest of week. Used espresso machine in room every morning, have to lift out of tray to find power button on side near bottom. We never smelled sewage anywhere in the resort. A/C was very cool and powerful in room. Bed very comfortable, though pillows were too plump for us. The bracelet you have to wear is uncomfortable the first couple days until it softens up but it sure beat a key card. It was a real convenience. We thought the Tamarijn was a very nice, clean, 4 star all-inclusive resort.
Would never return. Ruined Aruba for us

WHEN ARRIVED WE WERE TOLD WE NEEDED TO WAIT FOR SHUTTLE TO TAKE OUR LUGGAGE TO ROOM. WAITED OVER 20 MINUTES AND WALKED WITH OUR LUGGAGE TO OUR ROOM. WHICH WAS A GOOD WALK AFTER FLYING 12 HOURS AND IN JEANS IN 100 DEGREE WEATHER. ROOM SMELLED LIKE RAW SEWERAGE. IT WAS HORRIBLE HAD TO LEAVE THE BATHROOM DOOR CLOSED WHEN NOT IN USE AND OPEN WHEN SHOWERING TO LET THE SMELL OUT OF THE ROOM WE WERE NOT TOLD THE BUFFET WAS NOT AVAILABLE FOR DINNER AT THE TAMARIJN. SO YOU BASICALLY HAVE 3 OPTIONS FOR DINNER AND ALL REQUIRE RESERVATIONS. SO WHEN WE ARRIVED AT 4:00 PM NO RESERVATIONS AVAILABLE AND NO BUFFET UNLESS WE WANTED TO GO TO SISTER HOTEL DIVI BUT WOULD HAVE TO WAIT FOR THE SHUTTLE. CALLED FOR A SHUTTLE TO PICK US UP NEVER CAME CALLED 2X AND WAITED 45 MINUTES DIRTY DISHES LEFT ON LOUNGE CHAIRS IN FRONT OF OUR PATIO SAT THEIR FOR 2-3 DAYS NO ONE WALKING AROUND PROVIDING DRINKS OF OFFERING FOOD AROUND POOL WE HAVE BEEN TO D.R. AND MEXICO SEVERAL TIMES-SERVICE AND ROOMS 100 % BETTER
