One of the best hotels in Aruba hands down. I have stayed at them all, this was my last spot to stay. I wish I had not waited to stay here last. Fresh water bottles provided in the room after amazing maid services each day. The beach faces due West, so the sunsets are amazing every day!! I watched one a little too long, been seeing spots lately. Wear sunglasses for the sunsets, you are pretty close to the equator in Aruba. Food at the resort is reasonably priced and large portions. I ate like a hog will there. Don t take the taxis out front, you are close to everything you need. Taxi drivers out front of the Hilton were empircally rude, which I found odd. The only TRUE downside to this entire resort was the casino staff. They were very unfriendly, often speaking in foreign languages to eachother and laughing at me. Especially this one heavier set male pit boss. I found it rude, as I have a bum leg that causes me to limp around. Playing Craps at the casino was a good time. We started winning so big that they didn t let us set the dice or loft throw. Given the game is entirely chance based, I found this weird. I have never seen someone skillfully throw the point. Given the statistics of dice, and the nature of their chaotic flight across 5+ft table onto a bouncy surface, I find it weird why they had these no set the dice or no loft throw rules and actively enforced them. The blackjack dealers were either silent or unfriendly. I tip my dealers regardless, just wish they would liven up. Blackjack here is autoshuffle, be weary, these machines could be rigged to favor the dealer. TLDR; I will return to the resort, but not to the casino.
