Beautiful resort. extremely calm. included breakfast is awesome. Service is outstanding - better than most 5stars resorts like Ritz. The beach is fantastic, much quieter and beautiful than Palm Beach. Rooms were ok, nothing luxury but had everything needed. Massages were really not great - only disappointment of our stay with them. Felt like both massage therapist had never done that before. Average age quite old on the resort, not a lot of people below 50 years old. Overall, very great experience, would go back anytime. Renting a car to travel around was a must but not needed since their location is very central and everything easy with taxis. Great resort overall!!!!

Love Bucuti and Tara

We had an amazing time in Aruba and we greatly enjoyed our stay at Bucuti and Tara. The hotel is for adults only and it was lovely to enjoy the amenities peacefully and to enjoy a gorgeous beach in calm and serenity. The beach bar was excellent and the bartenders and service were very friendly. The breakfast at Tara Lounge was scrumptious. We felt very welcome and the concierge service was phenomenal.

The ambience, the vibe, the scenery, the food, the amenities, the beach, and I could go on and on… We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Bucuti, and would NOT hesitate in the least of coming back.
