Best hotel on the Beach
Best beach and hotel on the Island! The staff, Karen, Juan, Rambo,Israel, Greg are all amazing, You truly feel special here! Even Paco the parrot always greets you! The beds are wonderful and if you need anything they will accommodate. The breakfast is wonderful and included in your stay. Dinner at Elements was one of the best meals on the beach. We have been coming here for 20 years, stay other places but always come back here!

Great vacation
Great atmosphere, excellent friendly and attentive staff. Calm. More chairs than people. A great place to relax. The white sand beach is one of the nicest and the blue water can’t be beat. Breakfast everyday and afternoon drinks outside on the patio. The best!

The only choice for us.
Just returned from our 15th stay at Bucuti. I don't usually bother to review long-stablished places which already have such high ratings, as they don't need my "Amen." But I want to say that this place deserves every rave. The beach is the BEST, the staff is warm and helpful, and every moment is a pleasure. Somehow it improves every year.
