My bf and I travelled to Aruba recently. Upon arriving at the Divi aruba all inclusive we found they had no record of our reservations. Armed with our hotel.com confirmation they shuffled us to the Tamrijn an associated resort. Alas they did not have us either so they sent us to the Divi Village time share. They accomodated us even though we were not owners. The Divi is very nice, and we had an aw... [more]esome time. However, one day we were lounging by the pool at the Divi Village and one of the owners gleefully approached us and asked if we were owners. When we explained our situation we were instantly treated like lepers. Now this did not by any means effect the amazing time that the two of us had. But I was shocked at how rude every single one of those owners were. They would never return a polite "hi" or even acknowledge our presence. The only people to exchange words with us was another couple on their honeymoon who were in the same situation as us. If all time share holders are as elitist as this there is no way in hell I would ever buy a time share. So my only comment to those unpleasant people is go ahead and enjoy your microwave popcorn and blender drinks that you make in your room, we will take our all inclusive vacation where we never had to lift a finger and toast to you and your circumscribed world.

When I booked a room here through a time share program for my honeymoon, I was certain that it would be beautiful as I visted the website to view the grounds ahead of time. The room that they gave us was not at all like the ones that they have on their website. It was small and old. The beach is across the street. There was only one place to eat and it was dirty and gross. The poolside bar was fil... [more]thy. The pool was small.

I recommend the Costa Linda--it is beautiful. [less]
