Aruba De Palm Island? Is it worth the $89 pp all day?

Going to Aruba soon. Was thinking about the De Palm Island tour. Reviews on Trip Advisor and elsewhere are mixed. Has anyone else in TS4MS land experienced this De Palm island tour in Aruba. I know De Palm is one of the biggest tour operators in Aruba. They seem a bit on the pricey side as well?

Go to their web site - they have a cheaper half day tour - it is an incredible snorkeling experience but here is another suggestion - see how much it costs to rent a room for 1 night at the Renaissance Hotel - then 4 of you can go for free to their private island which is on the other end of de palm island..although it is not all inclusive - it is suppose to be a wonderful location with great snorkeling.
And you can go the day you would 'check-in and the day you check-out'!!!

I think that it is.....If you're not going to be back in Aruba for a while, I'd go go it.
