Fun and relaxing - My partner and I had a great time at Palm island , truly enjoyed the activities included in the package . The staff were very nice and friendly.

Amazing De Palm Island - We had an amazing time in the slides, snorkeling, and The flamingo experience. The banana boat ride was an entirely different experience and was really fast and fun.

Awesome - The experience was awesome totally worth the money. It was so fun! We had a blast. The island had so many activities!

Great Experience - Awesome day! It’s worth it to upgrade to at least the premium seating where you get a shaded lounger on the beach, waiter, and entertainment from the 12 local flamingos.

Nice and relaxing - We had a great time and the water was perfect. Plenty of fish when snorkeling. There was plenty to do. The food was yummy.

Fabulous Snorkeling on this Island - We came here on a cruise excursion because it promised the best snorkeling, was all inclusive for drinks and food, and it was a 7 hour long excursion. We saw a few very negative reviews, but after one of the best days we have ever spent on an excursion, I stick to my old adage that some people would gripe if you hung them with a new rope! This island is pristine in every aspect from decor, maintenance, and cleanliness to aesthetic beauty, and range of activities. The snorkeling was some of the best I have done in the past few years, and I love that you can purchase some fish food and become surrounded by hundreds of fish gently brushing against you for a tidbit to eat. I counted 34 species of fish and despite the fairly rough water that day, the water was crystal clear and I never felt nervous. All equipment was provided if you don’t have your own. The area is roped off and there is a lifeguard. SNUBA is also offered but I felt $69 was a bit steep for basically 20 minutes of in the water time by time they do all of the instructions. Having done it several times in the past, I didn’t need 30 minutes of instruction. Plus they all just held onto rope and were in the same area everyone was snorkeling in. The food was nothing super fancy but we had an excellent salad and fruit and the chicken tenders were better than most fast food restaurants. The jerk chicken was delicious! Plenty of sodas, fruit juices, and a nice selection of alcoholic beverages to select from, all included in our excursion fee. There was ice cream and cotton candy for a fee. The flamingos are in a separate section where you can watch them. If you want a photo with them, you pay $49 and get to go inside the fenced area and spend 30 minutes with them. Or you can stand outside the fence and do a selfie with them in the background like most folks were doing. We didn’t do the water park slides as I don’t care for enclosed tubes, but folks seemed to be having a great time. There is a really nice children’s water park/splash park area that looked like a lot of fun for the kids. They also offered free banana boat rides that carried 12 people. There is a separate enclosed bay for swimming, and for beginner snorkeling that had rock wall barriers to keep the water calmer. Lots of seating/lounge chairs and thatched umbrellas. There are private cabana areas as well you pay extra for. We will definitely return.

great - We've visited this island twice so far and have enjoyed our experience both times. The room was luxurious, and the location was beautiful, laid back, and energetic all at the same time. The resort restaurant is a treat with its family-friendly atmosphere, delicious food, and attentive staff. Hopefully, we'll get to take advantage of the on-site activities next trip. The room was so relaxing we rarely left it. We plan to return again soon.

Worth the money - So many water activities to do and love that the food and drinks were all inclusive. Just make sure to break water shoes because the beach has a lot of rocks. Outside of that, highly recommend this activity.

De Palma Aruba Island Bus Tour - Marchh 13, 2024 - Earlyson H. was a fantastic driver and your guide. I mustsay he did an Eveleth job and I will definitely recommend him to anyone I know it's coming to Aruba. The one negative of the tour was lunch at the Urataka Center. The good was served late, it did not taste very well, and the restaurant did not have enough servers to provide timely service to the the groups waiting for meals.

average experience for above average cost. - the island i felt was overrated. but i will say I thought the snuba was amazing and would do that again. the food was ok and drinks were all flat. mix drinks included but they did not taste very good.
