Family vacations are a time when many lifelong memories are made and parents and extended family enjoy spending time with each other in a relaxed atmosphere.
However, sometimes the adults just need to spend some time on their own or some adults who are traveling with family may not want to stay in the same area, opting to stay nearby in something a little more grown up. The Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino has developed the Tradewinds Club, which is a hotel-within-a-hotel, to give the adults some space of their own.
Located only 15 miles north of Venezuela, Aruba is an island that is 19.6 miles long and 6 miles across. The island is truly a family getaway, although it's popular as a romantic honeymoon destination, too.
However, to accommodate the older crowd, the Tradewinds Club at the Aruba Marriot includes 49 rooms and 8 suites for adults only, with such amenities as an H20asis adult pool and private lounge with complimentary snacks and refreshments. And because adults like being taken care of too, there are elite concierge privileges for the 18 years and older crowd.
For your dining pleasure, the Aruba Marriot has a selection of options for the entire family that can satisfy every palate, including Ruth's Chris Steak House, the Balinese-style Mandara Spa, a sushi bar, beach bar, and the 24-hour Stellaris Casino. Back at the resort, you can enjoy complimentary snacks and refreshments throughout the day and feel free to take advantage of a clothes pressing service, un-packing and packing services, as well as other exclusive amenities and privileges.
When it's time to get off the property and explore the island of Aruba, you can venture out on your own and enjoy several of the island's casinos and other areas of the nightlife, including a piano bar, midnight grill, beach bars and more.
If you want to hang around with the family, you can all enjoy a wide variety of options nearby where you can learn get around in a catamaran or inside a ship wreck! You can go on a wild jeep ride or a submarine tour that gets you close up and 130 feet down to exotic marine life and two sunken wrecks. You can also enjoy a dive into the water or snorkeling or exploring Aruba's Arikok National Park, a desert like preserve with a variety of wildlife, cacti and dramatic rock formations.
When you are vacationing with family but need your own personal time away, this hotel-within-a-hotel at the Aruba Marriott is the best of both worlds.
