Re: where to stay in aruba with a 10mo
It is not all inclusive...but the Marriott Surf Club is where I am headed (in 10 days!! YAY!!!)
It is extremely kid friendly with a kiddie pool, a walk up to pool (no stairs, just a gradual decline), and a HUGE lazy river (my personal fav)
I cannot wait! We are going with my 2.5 yr old and my 11 mo old! So excited!

I agree Mariott surf club *but it's not all inclusive) is my vote too. DH and I didn't go with the kids but there were so many other families there and it was very friendly atmoshpere.

Re: where to stay in aruba with a 10mo
When we went ( years ago pre-kids), we stayed at The Rennaisance...What I liked about it there is that it was within walking distance to town ( where as most others are not)...They are not right on a beach, but they have this awesome little boat that actually flows through the resort that takes you on a really quick boat ride to their own private beach and the water was so calm, almost bay-like...
Not sure if they have an AI package, we ate in town most days

Re: where to stay in aruba with a 10mo
When we went we stayed at the Renaissance.
There are 2 hotels, one (I think it called the Marina) is regular rooms more adult orientated. The other is Suites with families in mind.
Its the only hotel downtown so you can walk to alot which might be nice with the baby. It also has 2 beaches(although you have to take a boat to them - its a private island) And I know when we went they did have an all inclusive option.

Re: where to stay in aruba with a 10mo
I'm also looking for resorts with a 10mo except we plan to go in January.
My pick for Aruba is Hyatt Regency.
I'm also looking into Dreams La Romana and Paradisus Palma Real in the Dominican Republic.

Re: where to stay in aruba with a 10mo
We went a few months ago and stayed in one of the Marriotts. While I liked it, ours didn't have a kiddie pool so we had to go to the Marriott next door for it, which was annoying. Not sure which one that is. Before DD, we stayed at the Radisson which I loved. Never stayed at the Hyatt but they have a kiddie pool and I've heard great things about it. Would also love to stay at the Rui. I stayed at the Westin and hated it. I don't know many hotels in Aruba that offer all inclusive but I woudlnt do that anyway - great restaurants.

ITA... we have a timeshare at the Marriott Ocean Club. Either Surf or Ocean is nice. We're going to Aruba in Feb and Mason will be 9 months old. It's better to stay at a timeshare so you have a full kitchen and separate bedroom. We bought a portable pack n' play for him.
Have Fun!
