If Aruba is decided, the Ritz is a nice hotel, a little removed from all the action so the beach is a little quieter, and not as many kids. The Hyatt Regency is a phenomenal hotel that I would choose over the Ritz, but much busier.

Agree with BCG1 - service at the Ritz was impeccable

As someone who planned a trip to Costa Rica last week, I am saying yes in the name of an awesome vacay!

I loved the Ritz. Great service, absolutely beautiful views!

It is also a relatively new hotel - built in the last 5 years I think. Never stayed there, but love Aruba.

Stayed at the Marriott Stellaris Resort and Casino next door. A whole lot better and cheaper restaurants than Ritz. We got upgraded to an oceanfront junior suite and were still paying $200 less per night than Ritz. Ritz has no night life like the Marriott. Your call but do your TripAdvisor research

Hello Fishes,

I have got my L2 Dependent Visa stamped for the US through the Wife's organization and she has booked the tickets for the both of us in the next weekend. I am currently unallocated in TCS and seeking projects in the same US location as my Wife. Can I travel to the US just like that and then continue my search within TCS from there or do I need any approvals to even fly in the first place?

I am worried because of the time crunch and will be glad to hear some points on this.
