If you're looking for a location where you'll enjoy lush, tropical vegetation plus plenty of activities, the Marriott's Aruba Surf Club might be a perfect choice for you. The offerings at this hotel include many fun and interesting forms of recreation, so you can have an active vacation in a relaxed setting.

Water and Fitness

With an abundance of great activities available during your visit to Aruba, going to the hotel's pool may not be a top priority, even though this can be a very pleasant way to spend the afternoon. It doesn't matter if you choose to sip a drink by the edge or take a few laps, more than likely you'll find many chances to enjoy the hotel's swimming pool.

Tennis

Vacationers who love the game of tennis will find this hotel particularly appealing. There are 450 rooms and 2 courts. This comes out to an average of approximately 540 guests per tennis court, which isn't as favorable as some hotels in the region. There will be opportunities to play a match, but during the high season you may find it necessary to wait until an opportune time, like when most other guests are sunning at the beach. You can enjoy some evening matches on a lit tennis court. This is an ideal option for those who would rather spend their day pursuing other activities.

If you are looking for some other choices that are good for tennis, investigate Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort - Aruba Beach Resort & Casino and Mill Resort & Suites. These hotels have some of the best tennis amenities in the area, so it may be wise to weigh those options against this hotel before making your choice.
