[Arubalisa]

All good advice here. Our family of 10 was at the Tamarijn Resort over Christmas and New Years with an 11, 13, 15 and 18 year old. It was the first time to Aruba for the three oldest ones and they can do their fair share of whining. There was as much or as little do do as they wanted, and for the most part they were perfectly happy just hanging out on the beach and swimming for days on end. I was very pleasantly surprised.
