Marriott Ocean Club or Marriott Stelaris??

I know they are right next to one another, but which of the 2 would you choose? Comments appreciated.

Re: Marriott Ocean Club or Marriott Stelaris??

Hi
I have stayed in both places. The Stellaris is wonderful, but it is a basic hotel room.

The beach club gives you a full working kitchen, which is really nice, a dining area and living room besides the bedroom. You can stay in the one bedroom or two bedrooom suites.

Look at their websites.

Both places are great. The pools are wonderful and amenities in both superb.
I'm staying at the surf club this year. Since it is breand new, don't know much about it, but I'm sure it will be great.

Re: Marriott Ocean Club or Marriott Stelaris??

We have stayed in both; both are great, but the OC has a larger "suite" layout with kitchen, living room, separate bedroom. The unit we were in also had a jacuzzi tub which my wife enjoyed...took some heat out of her sunburn! The Stellaris is great for a hotel, I really like the big balconies.

However, we have found that we really spend very little time in the room. Now that the OC is so popular as a timeshare we usually stay in the hotel.

Either one is GREAT because you are in ARUBA!!!

The Ocean Club is a time share facility. Thus you can stay in an apartment style unit. The other is a Hotel.
Either one is great. My wife and I have stayed in the hotel for the last 8-10 years.

You know Marriott does everything right.

Enjoy.

If you have a choice, the Ocean Club is better since it is bigger. The hotel is nice, it is a hotel. The Ocean Club is a timeshare, it is bigger. The kitchen is nice, even if you dont use all of it, the refrig is a bonus to keep drinks etc, cool, I enjoyed the icemaker, it is the little things. Just the extra space. Eithe place, you will have fun. Rent a car!!! Sharon
