Aruba - which would you choose?
We are traveling in May with another couple (no kids this time). I have stayed once before at the Radisson and really liked it. But were hoping for more of a condo this time.
Found a 2 BR, BA oceanview villa at the Surf Club. My only concern there is the construction and crowded beach. The beach construction (moving the fishing docks) should be done by May though.
Other option is to stay in adjoining rooms at the Radisson. I like the location of the Radisson and know I like resort.
As far as costs go, it will be a little less expensive to stay at the Surf Club.
Any thoughts or opinions that would help me make this decision would be greatly appreciated!

both resorts are very nice, personally I would choose the Rad, especially if you have already stayed there and had a good experience.without kids you will find a more romantic atmosphere at the radisson than Surf club which is geared more toward families. radisson tends to attract more couples IMO but both choices are great. how about considering the Hyatt, which was being renovated while we were there in july.

we went thru travelocity & paid about $865.00 pp air and hotel for 8 nt's in july, we got an oceanview room but the room was in need of updating, hyatt rates were actually slightly cheaper than the radisson and much less than marriott stellaris resort at that time probably due to renovations.
