We are staying at the Aruba Ocean Club in Aruba, can anyone give me specific information as to what to expect there?

1. Do they include toiletries,
2. is it easy to navigate the area,
3. how do we get there from the airport
4. has anyone attended the time share sales pitches to get freebies
5. groceries nearby?
6. walkable restaurants in the area

With this crazy winter we are really looking forward to it

Thanks

1. Do they include toiletries, If I recall - just tiny bottles of shampoo, conditioner and lotion in each bathroom. You may want to bring more. Plenty of soap - 2 bars per bathroom.
2. is it easy to navigate the area, If you are talking about walking in resort location yes.
3. how do we get there from the airport, We rented a car, but we didn't use it much. I would suggest taxi.
4. has anyone attended the time share sales pitches to get freebies. Not us, don't even recall being offered.
5. groceries nearby? Not really, but not too far away for a cheap taxi ride.
6. walkable restaurants in the area. LOTS

With this crazy winter we are really looking forward to it

Thanks
