Aruban Resort Update

The courts of Aruba declared KL Sales, Marketing and Management Company N.V, the management company of the Aruban Resort bankrupt on December 17, 2009. Two trustees have been appointed by the court to oversee the bankruptcy proceedings. The Aruban Resort is closed down until further notice.

At this time, we advise all future guests with reservations at The Aruban Resort to reschedule their visit and contact a travel professional for alternate accommodations. Aruba’s hospitality industry is always at the service of our guests, with the islands many fine properties available to reach out to displaced guests. Reservations can be booked directly through www.aruba.com. As a result of the bankruptcy status of the resort, and the fact that The Aruban is a privately owned company, no further information on this situation is available at this time.
