Marriott?
 

My dh and I are looking to take a vacation in a couple of months using marriott reward points. We have stayed at the marriott in Grand Cayman (even without a beach) and loved it because of the wonderful restaurants on the island. Is there another great marriott that we should check out in the islands or should we stick with that one? Thanks

It depends. You can check out the Marriott in Curacao -- the hotel is great and the island is very interesting. The St. Kitts Marriott is beautiful and big and St. Kitts offers a totally different experience -- more traditional West Indian flavour. The Aruba Marriott is very upscale and Aruba is an enjoyable island -- similar to Grand Cayman with regard to the amount and type of hotels and tourist infrastructure. I always think it's nice to try some place different.

I agree with Derek. Hospitality in Curacao must be their fame. We recall our stay at the Marriott as magical. They have a very nice gathering for the manager's party once a week and a night with the limbo and fire eater. Great accomodations with the wonderful James beds. AND, I think you would be happy with the enchanting downtown area. We're going to Aruba this winter and hope that it's half as good as Curacao was!

Marriott in St.Thomas is a beautiful resort. you can try that.

The former Holiday Inn is now the Courtyard Marriott - will your reward points work for that? It's across the street from the beach but the beach is very nice there.

I would say Marriott Aruba. It is a great hotel. There are many great restaurants and people are so friendly.

Another vote for the Marriott Curacao. Great resort, great people, very nice island.
