Holiday Inn Sunspree Aruba?

Travel Info
I have heard varying reviews about this hotel. Me and my gf are 25 years old and we were planning to go to Aruba in Sept. This hotel was at a good price and offers the all-inclusive option. the trip should cost around 1300 all inclusive and we would like to keep the price right around that. Any thoughts on this hotel?

Travel Tips

It's a 3 star hotel but in popularity it's 4 star on trip advisor.
It's a big resort with 3 restaurants. As long as you don't expect 5 star treatment, give it a try. The price is right and you are right on beautiful Palm Beach and the hotel has a pool. Sounds like a great time.
Go and enjoy.

It depends on what you are expecting. If you expect 5 star quality, then you won't find it there. The hotel is a solid 3 to 4 star, but not more than that.

For how long are you going? Are you taking into account the cost of flights?

Let me know if I can help you book your vacation.

I have stayed at this hotel. It is located right on the beach, and has recently re - done the pool area. I did not go inclusive, because I worked for Holiday Inn and got an employee rate which does not include food. I love Aruba and if you like to snorkle make sure you make it over to Baby Beach you will see more fish than if you go pay to go snorkling. I would go back to Holiday inn even though I no longer work for them. I have also stayed at the La Cabanna now that place is very run down and the pools are not kept clean. There are place which are nicer than the Holiday Inn but they cost a whole lot more. Most of the time you will be there you will be outside enjoying the beaches and the weather, which is wonderfull all the time. Go with what you have booked or find a friend that works for Holiday Inn and see if they would like to go and get you an employee rate room, they would also have to go, but they can book 2 rooms if available. Go you will have a great time.
The reason you get varying opinions is the the Holiday Inn is one of the older hotels on the island. Although they keep it in good repair, it is that...old. But it is nice, definitely not 5 star but it doesn't cost like a 5 star either. How much time will you spend in your room anyways?

If the price is right stick with it. You can't go wrong there.
