Stellaris Casino

The nicest casino on the island IMHO. It is bigger than some, but still not as big as most casinos in the US. Nice selection of slots with variable denominations. There is also a bar with quarter video poker machines. About 10-12 gaming tables I would say. BJ, let it ride, 3 card poker, roulette. The card tables don’t open until dinner time. I saw $10 minimum on BJ and three card poker. For all of the times that we have been here I have NEVER seen them hand pay a jackpot….not a good sign. MUCH BETTER since they made it no smoking. They do not allow photography but they let me keep one!

A live band on Friday night made for a fun atmosphere. The table games got full around 9pm but you could still play with a short wait. Great bartenders made great drinks at the bar right in the middle of the casino. We really enjoyed ourselves.

Do not play craps here. Some of the most bogus house rules you will ever find. 15 dollar game. Must bet 5 dollar hard ways, must bet 15 odds nothing short of it, can’t set dice, don’t hold the dice for more than 2 secs before someone says something. Some of the worst odds offerings on the island as well. Hard pass and they’re probably wondering why that bs table is dead most the week. Terrible

Once again Aruba did not disappoint. There is something unsettling going on with the ATM machines that you need to research before you go. My favorite people are all still working at the stellaris, Jeffery Cores is always so helpful and makes sure to find us and check on our needs. Rossinny and Visia are very friendly and helpful. They both stop and talk to us whenever we are there. These three are people that we consider friends. I had the pleasure of meeting Raymond, he worked at the VIP desk. I will be adding him to my list of friends. He was always friendly and helpful. He answered my questions and explained things so that it was easy to understand. I enjoyed meeting him. Frankie the beverage server always remember me and is always friendly. The big boss Ben stopped by to chat with us and shared a picture of his little girl’s graduation from kindergarten. I really appreciate how thoughtful and friendly the employees are and how they make our vacation such a wonderful experience. We also had a chance to meet Jeffery’s wife and daughter. It makes you feel like you are a part of their family when the employees don’t mind introducing you to their family. I’ll always love my home away from home. See you next year ❤️

Make sure you track your points and get in writing as well from host about using your comps. They have every excuse to not let you use your points for food and beverage, like it’s coming out their paycheck. It’s not worth the gambling. The crap tables opens late and closes early but they complain you don’t bet enough. I’ve see other comments also saying about the machine changing bets. I also feel that happened to me as well.

This was our first time to Aruba and we just wanted to relax on the first night there. Very nice and quiet atmosphere. I had the Arubian pizza which includes pineapple. My husband had the NY steak which was also excellent. Right off the beach near the Caribbean Sea.

Apparently biggest in Aruba but still very cramped. Great dealers, many slot machines. Mainly doninated with younger players who do not normally know how to play and they literally want to burn the money. But great fun nonetheless.

Clean, lot of tables. Slots not too exciting. Set very tight and not much play time. Probably would not go back unless we were staying at the Marriott.
