Marriott’s Aruba Surf Club

Anchoring the northern end of Palm Beach, Marriott’s Aruba Surf Club is widely considered the ultimate family playground on the island. As the largest of the Marriott vacation ownership properties in Aruba, it is famous for its massive “resort-within-a-resort” aquatic complex, which features the island’s longest lazy river, a waterslide, and multiple swimming pools. The vibe here is high-energy, bustling, and decidedly family-centric. Guests typically stay in spacious villas ranging from guest rooms to two-bedroom units with full kitchens and living areas. While it shares a campus with the neighboring Marriott’s Aruba Ocean Club and the Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino, the Surf Club stands out as the most activity-driven destination of the trio.
