Best All-Inclusive Resorts In Aruba 2025
The best all-inclusive resorts in Aruba make it easy to soak in the island's white sand beaches and azure waters. Welcoming approximately two million visitors each year, Aruba offers diverse all-inclusive accommodations for every type of trip—with meals and perks rolled up into one worry-free, flat rate.
Divi Dutch Village as our top overall recommendation thanks to its crowd-pleasing amenities and access to facilities at four other resorts. The opulent suites at Barceló Aruba are a great high-end choice, while wellness lovers will appreciate beachfront yoga and tailored spa treatments at Manchebo Beach Resort & Spa. Below, the best all-inclusive resorts in Aruba for 2025.
Studio suite at Divid Dutch Village Resort.
The endless activities at Divi Dutch Village Beach Resort ensure the whole family will never be bored, from pickleball to rock climbing on the shimmering Druif Beach. Guests can also take in stunning ocean views from the beach bar, which serves up tropical cocktails and Caribbean delights all day long; the resort's three cabana- and lounge chair-lined pools also offer plenty of water-wading fun. The accommodations encircling each pool are spacious, modern and equipped with open-air balconies and patios so you can bask in the island breeze at your leisure. When booking, choose between the signature all-inclusive package, which gives additional access to facilities at the Divi Village Golf & Beach Resort, and the mega all-inclusive package, which allows you to indulge in perks at all four Aruba Divi resorts.
Aerial view of Barceló Aruba.
Despite its smaller size, the luxurious amenities at Barceló Aruba do not disappoint. Its 373 rooms (ranging from ocean-view affairs with hot tubs to spacious, connected units that sleep up to seven guests) are all pristine, but its Royal level suites are a high-end highlight, featuring outdoor hydro-massage tubs, private gourmet dining and personalized turn-down service. The luxury boutique feel of this property extends to its six international restaurants, where you can find premium cuisine to satisfy your every craving: The six-course Chef's Table experience at L'Olio, the on-site Italian restaurant, is a particular guest favorite (for an additional fee). Looking to indulge in a little retail therapy? Venture to the nearby Palm Beach Plaza and Paseo Herencia Mall for a full day of souvenir-filled shopping.
Oceanfront bungalows at the Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort.
Set on the 40-acre, private Renaissance Island, the Renaissance Wind Creek Aruba Resort feels tucked away from Aruba's main tourist spots. After arriving by complimentary water taxi, relaxation can be found around every corner, from luxe oceanfront cabanas on the flamingo-roaming shores to a luscious full-service spa (offering treatments like body wraps, shiatsu massages and more). The island and its accommodations are divided into adults-only and family-welcome areas: The soothing Flamingo Beach is sectioned off for those 18-plus only, while the teeming Iguana Beach is available for guests of all ages. Reserve the exclusive all-inclusive package for free-flowing cocktails and daily à la carte meals included in your rate (a minimum four-night stay is required).
Oceanfront suite at Riu Palace Antilles.
Riu Palace Antillas' 300 suites are outfitted with serene ocean views, tropical turquoise accents and, most notably, liquor dispensers that ultimately set the tone at this adults-only haven. The party never stops with an ongoing schedule of rotating festivities, high-risk high-reward games at the on-site casino and a vibrant dance floor at the Pacha discotheque (open six nights a week). When you're ready to wind down, the resort's two pools and inviting swim-up bar can service you during an afternoon of lounging, as can the Renova spa, which features six treatment rooms for couples and singles. For the more adventurous traveler, an introductory scuba diving lesson is included in your rate—or you can try your hand at snorkeling and kayaking on the pristine sands of Palm Beach.
Pool at Divi Aruba All Inclusive.
At Divi Aruba All Inclusive, honeymooners are greeted with a welcome gift, Champagne, a preferred room location and a complimentary night stay one year after their wedding. Each of the property's 261 suites are stocked with luxe bathroom amenities by Aruba Aloe, and give sweeping, romantic vantages of the surrounding tropics via furnished patios or balconies. Couples massages are to be had at the Indulgence By The Sea spa—or if you're the more sporty type, pair off for a game of two at the tennis and volleyball courts. For an intimate evening, reserve a beachside table at the Red Parrot: The resort's epicurean eatery serves savory mains like salmon puff pastries, duck confit and Argentinian beef tenderloin. If you're planning to tie the knot, event planners are on staff to arrange the ceremony of your dreams; wedding guests can stay on-site for a reduced price.
Tamarijn Aruba exterior.
For families seeking a budget-friendly vacation, toddlers and infants under 2 years old can stay, play and eat for free at the Tamarijn Aruba All Inclusive Resort, while kids and teens can stay at a reduced rate. Activities for children at the resort are scheduled around the clock: By day, you can embark on pirate treasure quests, snorkeling tours and windsurf tutorials; by night, live steel bands, karaoke and limbo fire shows will keep the whole family captivated and make unforgettable memories. When parents need a bit of rest and relaxation away from the kids, the resort's Sea Turtles Club entertains little ones all day long with arts and crafts, face painting, movie screenings and more. As sunset rolls around, round out the day by treating the kids to woodfire pizzas at Pizza Per Tutti, a family favorite casual dining experience.
Pool at the Manchebo Beach Resort And Spa.
At Manchebo Beach Resort And Spa, Aruba's premiere wellness resort, your relaxation and rejuvenation are prioritized above all else. Service is incredibly personalized at this boutique, 72-room property: Meals cater to a diverse array of dietary restrictions, and you're free to choose between daily classes that best suit your wellness goals (such as yoga, Pilates, Tai-Chi and meditation courses). Meanwhile, at the Bali-inspired Spa del Sol, trained experts dole out curated treatments designed to enhance tranquility via skincare remedies, body scrubs, massages and wraps, all in open-air gazebos that center guests right on the beach. À la carte dining at each of the resort's four restaurants is included in their Premium All-Inclusive plan, which also covers one off-property dinner for guests staying a minimum of four nights.
Aerial view of Riu Palace Aruba.
As with other Riu hotels, Riu Palace Aruba is popular for its bustling nightlife scene. Every week, live music, exhilarating shows and heart-pumping Riu parties fill the night with pulsating beats that can be heard throughout the resort; the property's rotating entertainment schedule ensures guests will never be bored. Once sunrise rolls around again, guests are often found gravitating toward the property's two massive swimming pools that have plenty of chaise loungers to go around—or at the swim-up pool bar delivering delightful craft cocktails. All-inclusive rates at the resort encompass everything from drinks and gourmet meals at its five mainstay restaurants to 24-hour room service and complimentary in-room mini-bar snacks. Adult guests can also venture to the neighboring Riu Palace Antillas to indulge in even more fine dining.
