Occidental Grand Aruba
    


Occidental Grand Aruba

Palm Beach, Aruba

The locals of Aruba love their turquoise ocean waters so much that they send the liquid through one of the world’s largest saltwater desalination plants, purify it and then use it as the main source of fresh water on the island. They lovingly call a glass of water a Balashi Cocktail.

Now you can enjoy Aruba’s Balashi Cocktails and its crystal-clear ocean waters while relaxing on vacation at Occidental Grand Aruba, an all-inclusive resort in Palm Beach. The deluxe rooms at Occidental Grand Aruba feature either one king bed or two double beds along with elegant tile and marble floors. Feel the fresh tropical breezes stroke your face from the comfort of your balcony or terrace. Room amenities include air conditioning, ceiling fan, stocked mini-fridge, satellite TV, full bath with shower and tub, hair dryer, alarm clock/radio, telephone with data port, Wi-Fi access, in-room safe, iron and ironing boards and coffee maker.

 

Occidental Grand Aruba also offers a mandatory all-inclusive program which includes meals, snacks, beverages (including alcoholic domestic drinks), non-motorized water sports, and all nightly shows at the resort. The cost is $140/person/day. Children up to age 6 are free; ages 7 -12 pay half price. Prices are subject to change.

Renowned chefs from four distinct resort restaurants are ready to serve up Italian, Mexican, Asian and Caribbean cuisine. After a leisurely dinner, sip an exotic drink from one of the resort’s five bars while you amble along the beach’s edge, feeling the Caribbean water mix with white sand beneath your feet. Later, test your luck at the in-house casino, take in live Caribbean and international music or try a game of nightly bingo.

During the day, island activities seem never-ending. Visitors can enjoy deep-sea fishing, snuba diving (a cross between scuba and snorkel), parasailing, wind and kite surfing and even underwater tours. Parents with children ages 4 to 10 can try out the resort’s Kids Club, which features supervised activities for the little ones.

Your all-inclusive package includes these activities: water polo, water aerobics, sailing, snorkeling, kayaking, tennis courts, sports and scuba clinics, fitness room and daily activities by the pool and beach areas.

Plan your trip around Aruba’s month-long celebration, Carnival, or catch St. John’s celebration of Dera Gai or the weekly Bonbini Festival. The area also features art galleries and museums like the “Rococo Plaza” Museum of Antiquities, Aruba Aloe Balm Museum and the Numismatic Museum.
