Looks like they only made cosmetic changes
While the location is beautiful, the hotel is run poorly. There were several people clustered around the front desk at any given time with various complaints. The manager, who was very nice, was unable to help most of the complainants and there was a lot of eye rolling and angry faces on the guests. Among the problems we encountered were there was hair in the bathtub and it did not drain well, they gave us a room on the sixth floor when a ground floor was requested via email and telephone call, they told us our rooms were ready, but they were still dirty. I feel bad making this complaint, but I think the upper management of the hotel deserve the chance to hear from their guests so they can improve. The beach is beautiful, but the hotel is not.

Disappointing experience
Hotel seemed surprised that they were busy at Christmas. Our room was the wrong type; the shower did not drain; the dedicated Guest Request line was not answered once in 5 days; the wait-staff was rude and resentful when asked to provide the chicken ordered rather than the fish delivered - advised that there was nothing to be done; the lobby shop refused to allow us in when they closed early (without notice) for the "company party", the following telephone lines were never answered from the room phone: room service, housekeeping; guest request; concierge; registration. No effort to help guests. Each request or question was met with sullen intransigence. Have stayed at many hotels in Aruba - this is the only time I've experienced this treatment. I cannot, in good conscience, recommend the hotel to anyone - friend or foe.

Had a great time here over Christmas. The location is perfect, beautiful grounds, great beach (would recommend a beach hut). Fun casino and great night life all walking distance. The rooms were recently renovated so clean and fresh. Some other hotels are filled with a lot of young families with children. Radisson was much more laid back, guests were a good mix of families and couples. We were there with our two adult sons in there 20s and a fun time was had by all!

Best place!
We stayed at the Radisson for 5 nights in September 2012. We had the best experience from the hotel staff to spacious beaches. We received a complementary upgrade to the ocean view room but it had two queen beds. When we got to our room, we realized that queen size beds were not as big as in the US. Same night, we were promised a king size bed room with even better view. But we had to wait two more nights. That didnt bother us. The staff moved our luggage to a better room when we were out and we enjoyed our stay even more because of the accommodating, wonderful staff. Hotel grounds are full of exotic birds, during the day you can take pictures with them when they let them out. Hotel restaurants were not our favorite. There are tons of nice restaurants across the street and there is Wacky Wahoos - excellent fish choices (it's better to make a reservation to have a guaranteed table). Every afternoon we were looking forward to cold water with oranges that the hotel offered for its guests. Pools were nice and clean. Would definitely go back to stay here again.

BLEW AWAY all expectations
Don't be fooled by the "high rise" label. Very cool laid back atmosphere. Great room, Great pool, Great staff, cool casino, and PERFECT BEACH. Across the street is a bunch of restaurants, shopping and party spots. It was exactly what I was looking for. I will be returning soon. Chris and Karin
