Notes/Tips/Hints/Opinions

• De Palm Pier is located just in front of the Aruba Grand - it contains the Koakoa? beach bar, and is a docking area from which many of De Palm Tour's cruises depart.
• Unique Sports is the on-site watersports operator (see www.arubagrand.com for watersports prices)
• Aruba Grand offers "Club VIP" membership, which offers fast, pre-check in feature, plus room and food discounts, plus guest gifts.
