Properties Earn Kudos from Top Travel Brands Travelocity, TripAdvisor and Travel + Leisure
Oranjestad, Aruba – (August 15, 2011) – As the summer began to heat up, the Divi & Tamarijn Aruba All Inclusives were also becoming “hot” as the properties earned recognitions from top travel industry brands Travelocity, TripAdvisor and Travel + Leisure for 2011.
“It’s truly an honor to receive these distinctions from some of the most prestigious brands in the travel and tourism industry,” said Alex Nieuwmeyer, Managing Director of Divi Resorts Aruba and Bonaire. “The fact that all three were awarded within the past few months is both a milestone and a testament to the success of our operations even within today’s highly competitive marketplace.”
In May, the Divi & Tamarijn Aruba were named recipients of the inaugural Travelocity Excellence Award. They were among just 500 hotels out of more than 70,000 offered on Travelocity’s website recognized by the organization for their commitment to provide only the best experiences to guests. That same month, TripAdvisor awarded a 2011 TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence to the Tamarijn Aruba. The certificate is presented to properties who consistently receive excellent ratings from TripAdvisor members. In June, the Divi & Tamarijn Aruba were named among the 10 Best Affordable All-Inclusive Resorts by Travel + Leisure. In the past, the Divi & Tamarijn Aruba All Inclusives have received accolades from Apple Vacations and Caribbean Travel + Life magazine. Both properties received silver
Earthcheck Certification in February 2011.
The properties have recently launched their own Facebook page, located at
