Unwind in a spacious room at a 4-star oceanfront resort in Aruba -- and pay half of the regular price.

This special at the Aruba Marriott Resort & Stellaris Casino covers travel Aug. 30 - Dec. 19 -- including Labor Day and Thanksgiving -- and cuts nightly prices to:

• $169 ... adjacent construction room (reg. $359)
• $179 ... garden view room (reg. $409)
• $219 ... premium ocean view room (reg. $509)

At 400 square feet, guest rooms are the largest in Aruba, according to Fodor's, and they come with massive patios or balconies. Other rooms, including junior suites, also are on sale. Check out the views, by room, by clicking here.

Note: The $169 rooms overlook the construction work on an adjacent resort, but guests still have partial ocean views. Marriott's amenities and services aren't affected by the construction.

Lounge in the lagoon-style pool with a swim-up bar and waterfalls, or sunbathe by the swanky adults-only H2Oasis pool that opened in December. The resort also features Aruba's largest casino, a spa and six restaurants (including Ruth's Chris Steak House and a sushi bar).

Not available on: Oct. 18-20; Nov. 1-5, 29-30 (On Nov. 23, the $169 room is sold out but the $179 room is still available)
