Occidental

I own 13weeks of timeshare at Occidental. I think its a great clean, friendly resort. If you are on the AI, I think the food in the buffet is just average. The Italian is very good. I can't say enough about the food in the private dining room for the Royal Club. Personally, I woudn't spend the extra money for the Royal Club unless you need top shelf liquor and eat in the private dining roome for every meal.

As for the towels, yes they have a hard time keeping up with clean towels on the beach. I own at many other resorts in Aruba, and Occidental is the only resort who does not question how many times you get your towels replaced in one day. So, people get them at night to save a spot on the beach in the AM, then go for a swim, change them again. Leave them on the lounge chairs, it rains and then they want to get new ones again. They never say no. Its hard to keep up with that kind of demand.
