We traveled to Aruba with 4 couples and rented 2 two bedroom condo's. They were roomy and well equiped. All the areas were clean and comfortable. Nice pool and 2 hot tubs. Small shop on the premises for grocery shopping. Grocery store nearby. Beach was wonderful and no problems getting seating. Mathews restaurant was a nice surprize.....we really enjoyed lunches... more

My mother-in-law had some RCI timeshare points that were soon to expire, so even though money is very tight for us now (we're in our early 30s and both paying huge student loan bills) we called RCI and managed a last-minute booking at the CDM in a 1-BR unit in the Ambassador wing. As many have noted, this is not... more

Date January 15, 2008 We have just returned from a week at Casa Del Mar where we rented a two bedroom timeshare for my family of five-3 twenty-somethings and 2 middle aged parents. The Casa Del Mar is situated on a beautiful beach in the lowrise area. The unit itself was spacious enough however it was in dire need of... more

The photos on their website are a little misleading, our room was in the building across the street with a pretty crummy pool and kiddie pool. We traded our timeshare from St. Martin to try a different island. The people were friendly enough but typical caribbean, slow motion. The beach was very nice but my son preferred the kiddie pool... more

We stayed at the CDM for 2 wonderful weeks. We had a one bedroom unit in the Ambassador wing. That wing had its own pool. There is a small children's pool also. It offered a pleasant quiet place to read and soak up the sun. Our unit was kept very clean by the unobtrusive housekeeping staff. We had a light... more

We purchased a two bedroom Presidential unit here in November 2005 but this was our first time to stay here. We own three timeshares (Las Vegas, Western US-but stay in Hawaii and CDM). We have stayed at many timeshares via exchanges with RCI and this is one of the best ones. The unit was on the 4th floor with a... more

Stayed one week in 1Br in Ambassador builing. The room was average in size, AC was working great. Everything else (appliances, tv, etc) was working also, but definitely was a bit dated. The Casa del Mar / Aruba Beach Club complex seems to be catering to South American tourists as much as to North Americans. If you're expecting 6-star resort... more

My family of four plus neice and nephew stayed in the 2 br section July 21-28, 2007. We exchanged our RCI timeshare in Maui for Aruba and I can honestly say we were not dissapointed. We have exchanged many times to different parts of the world, and we ALWAYS get the "please come to the free breakfast " invitation the... more

We stayed from July 28 untlill August 4. Found it to be a nice and accomodating hotel with all the amenities as advertised. Our kids loved the various activities that the hotel had. We stayed in the Ambassador wing and could still enjoy the facilities at the CDM and ABC. Check in was smooth and flawless. Only small disappointment was... more
