    Best Honeymoon Ever

    My husband and I stayed at Bucuti on our honeymoon. From start to end, this was the best vacation we have ever taken. On arrival we were greeted with champagne and kindness from everyone at the resort. They made our honeymoon so special. From the sign on the door that said honeymoon, the beach bag and champagne glasses, to the many wonderful recommendations we received from staff, this was fantastic. The concierge service made the world of difference and every reservation was made for us. The umbrellas you are able to reserve from the room and great breakfast were just exquisite. We recommend this hotel highly and we will definitely be coming back.

    The best adults only resort in Aruba.

    Located on Eagle beach which has far less people than Palm beach. For couples in love Bucuti being adult only is unmatched in quality and service. The resort is very eco friendly which is very important for us. We are repeat visitors and enjoying helping on the beach cleanup that they do every month.

    Simply amazing!

    From the moment we arrived we were blown away by the standard of service and the cleanliness of this hotel. Christopher was our concierge when we first got there and throughout the trip he was so, so very helpful. But you could speak with any of the staff and they would assist you in any way they could. Truly amazing!! We were there for our 50th wedding anniversary and it was the best trip of our lives! The food was excellent! The tea service in our room in the evening was a wonderful treat every night. I’d be remiss if I didn’t mention the comfortable bed. Totally makes me want to buy a Tempu-Pedic mattress! The daily morning breakfast was excellent. Everything you could think of was offered. And it’s included in the price of the room! Just an amazing experience! If you’re on the fence about this hotel, don’t be, you’ll never regret staying at the Bucuti & Tara Resort.
