I just moved the post here to the "hotel" category.

Ask away about the Tamarijn. Our family will be returning to the Tamarijn for our 3rd visit on June 17. In the meantime, here are some threads which may help you:

Thanks Arubalisa, first question is for my wife who just cannot go without coffee form very early morning ( she is an early riser so she will be up LONG before me , ususally 6 am ) and as i see it there are no kettles in the rooms , so , just WHERE can you get coffee at any time of the day or night ?.

Dunkin Donuts....

Ah, the "free"

coffee and tea machines

are located behind the breakfast buffet and there is one in the Bunker Bar as well.

Ask away, after years of hopping around the hi-rise area we've
hit the tam the last 3 times. Not the "ritz-carlton" but the place
works at making everyone as happy as can be. Rooms on the beach cannot be compared to, there is something to say about not having to cruise through a hotel lobby and or elevator to get back to your room. The knowledge and different experiences you'll get from this forum will be priceless. Have a great time!!

hi- I just returned from the TAM and love it! Arubalisa-question for you- after all these years, why havent you bought a timeshare? we are considering it..just curious!

*Arubalisa* · 02-23-2009, 11:17 AM

Glad to hear that you enjoyed the Tamarijn and Aruba.

Were you able to get any photos of the beach?

As to the timeshare issue, I have written twice about it on my blog:
http://www.bloggingtoaruba.com/my_weblog/2007/11/why-dont-we-own.html and most recently (as if you read my mind

) http://www.bloggingtoaruba.com/my_weblog/2009/02/pros-cons-of-timshare-ownership.html

Someday, if the timing, price and the resort were right, it could be a possiblitly, but right now we are content with resorts.

I did take pictures, but dont have my camera with me right now. I will post them later. I will check out the info you posted on the timeshares -I am definitely hooked on Aruba!
