We stayed on the family side (ocean suites) and it was great! The resort is clean and the family side has the best pools, views and lagoon! It was not overly noisy or crowded with kids. The property is beautiful and a quick walk to the Renaissance Marketplace where there are many good restaurants, Starbucks, Dunkin Donuts, shops, casino and live music. We did not have a bad meal anywhere! The ocean suites room was comfortable and clean. The renovations completed are thoughtful and tastefully done. The private Island is fantastic. It is beautiful with plenty of seating. The flamingos are cool and spend time on both the adult side and family side. If you do the nature walk, use bug spray as mosquitos will bite. Otherwise, no problems with bugs or mosquitos. Snorkel gear and mats can be checked out. It was fun looking at fish along the rocks! We enjoyed our time at Renaissance!

Disappointing. It’s supposed to be a nice hotel. That is why we chose it. Nice hotels don’t smell musty and gross. Can’t wait to leave here. The hotel staff was nice. It isn’t their fault about the musty smell. I think my luggage is going to stink after staying here. 🤢

The Renaissance is the perfect location in downtown. It offers restaurants, shopping and a boat ride to Renaissance Island where you can experience the Flamingos closely. The restaurants service is exceptional. L.G Steakhouse did not disappoint. I stayed at the Marina (adult only) however I went over to the Ocean Suites a few times for the live DJ during happy hour and loved my experience over there. Being an adult guest at one gives you the opportunity to experience both if you do not have children. The golf cart shuttle in between each property was a bonus! Huge shout out to Johm G. Who always greeted us with a warm smile and was so helpful. Please remember I am your best friend in Canada!

Location location location !!! Its beautiful. The lobby is everything and the service was EXCEPTIONAL. Thank you Shem who checked us in and ensure my Daugther had a beautiful room with a view of the ocean for her 25th Birthday. I am very big on customer service, and this resort surpassed my expectations. When a pipe broke and shut off the entire water supply to 2/3 of our rooms and this was out of the hotel control. This resort and team took the responsibility and accountability to ensure we were taken care of and all of their guests. We got additional hospitality rooms with running water for our showers to use since my daugther loved the rooms Shem had given us and she did not want to move to the different location or the new rooms we were offered. Shem worked I believe for 12-16 hrs to ensure not only us, but all of the guest were all satisfied. He checked in on us the following day also. Deidre took over the next day and she was also amazing. Again this incident was unavoidable and no fault of the hotel, but they took the responsibility, and brought in a team who worked endlessly to fix this issue. Even with low tide when the private island boat could not leave from the lobby, they ensure the boat left at the same times at a location across the street. The Flamingo island was an experience and the restaurants were great. Thank you Marriott Wind Creek Aruba for an exceptional stay

We stayed at the Renaissance wind creek resort. The hotel was gracious and gave us an early check in. Beds were super comfy and convenient to downtown area. BUT the best thing was the private island flamingo beach!!! You take a boat over approx 8 min to paradise!!! We rented a cabana and we had DONOVAN for the day as our server extraordinaire!! He was so accommodating all day from every request!!! He made the experience that much more amazing!!! I recommend this place 100%. Cooler was stocked with waters sparkling and still. Fruit chocolates, Prosecco and nuts!! Ordered food and drinks right there and the hammock was lovely!!! Fun fun day with great friends!!!

We did not stay at resort but had a one day pass since we did the couples spa to have access to flamingo island. What a great day! From the boat ride to the island, a quick 10 min., to the arrival at flamingo island. Beautiful As soon as docked we saw flamingos and iguanas. We picked up our towels and we’re off to the beach, a few steps away. Beautiful beds and plenty of chairs. We hit the water to take pics with flamingos. So pretty but they can be feisty. We started in iguana island where kids are allowed but once we got to the flamingo beach side the flamingos seemed less aggressive. We relaxed on beach before our massage. Our massage included lunch and a drink At Papaya Grill. We had the red snapper and it was great. After lunch we headed back to main resort. The boat ride was a little rougher than expected but nothing bad. It was quick and beautiful. I didn’t mind getting a little wet. Don’t hesitate to visit this resort.

This was the last of three locations we stayed in Aruba and definitely the highlight. The hotel, pools and facilities are great and cater for both adults and kids. Everyone who looked after us (including Valerie, William, Rosaba, Judith, Illiana) could not have been more friendly and helpful. The island, from the 10min speedboat ride there to the beautiful setting, the wild but very tame flamingoes, the lovely Papagyo restaurant (the shrimp tacos were delicious!) and all the wildlife made us feel very lucky to be there. Definitely worth it if even for only a few nights.
