Reviews for Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort Aruba - Adult Only

Review 1:People who think they are better than others putting on "airs".Staff who do not work as a team especially the dining area.Guests feeding birds at the outdoor eating area .The towel lady was very curt questioned if you really could have a towel no lady I paid for the towel and priviledge of meeting you.

Review 2:Mother nature provided great weather.Adults only resort enough beach chairs for all. Breakfast good variety to choose something for all!

Review 3:Bucuti is on one of the most beautiful beaches in perhaps the world. The staff members there go above and beyond to make your experience so uniquely special that you want to make Bucuti your home away from home.

Review 4:it was perfect.

Review 5:I absolutely loved this hotel. It is one of the nicest places I have ever been too. The staff will spoil you and you will never want to leave. I will say that the entire island is pretty expensive.

Review 6:The most amazing hotel we have ever stayed. We spent 10 days celebrating our honeymoon and it was just perfect! Definitely the best place to stay in Aruba. The beach is amazing (much better than Palm Beach, where all the big resorts are located), the room was perfect (we stayed in a standard room at the Bucuti side), service was excellent, the food delicious... The internet speed was amazing! So fast and it worked everywhere including at the beach! Loved the happy hours! Small things make a difference, like the cold wet towels at the beach, fruit salad in the middle of the day delivered at the beach and pool to all guests.... It was just perfect! I can't wait to be back...

Review 7:leaving!

Review 8:Everything! the entire visit with Bucuti was excellent and we never had a better time and left more refreshed from any of the over 100 places we've stayed at. The entire staff should be proud of the service they displayed, it's too bad that we can't remember all the wonderful people's names!

Review 9:All the staff very kind thinking in all That make your experience wanderfull anda the best beach Of Aruba specially thanks to Yolanda in Restaurant and Robinson

Review 10:Our air conditioner had some trouble for about 24 hours. The did not have clean snorkeling equipment on the day that we had requested to use it.

Review 11:Great property on a really great beach. It was clear that the staff works hard to make sure everything is great.

Review 12:The only two negative aspects of staying at Bucuti & Tara was when we were in our room. The hotel is huge in eco friendly & so was their Air Conditioning units. Out of a 5 day stay, twice the room was a little warm which the AC could not be lowered because it was programmed to not go lower than a specific tempature. The other was the bed. It was an older bed because It had dips on both sides. It was tough on our backs even for a young 28 year old married couple.

Review 13:While staying at Bucuti & Tara my fiancé and I visited other hotels including the Marriott. Every other hotel resembled a typical U.S, hotel but with Pom trees. Bucuti & Tara kept the Aruba feel. Another thing we liked was we did not have to wake up extra early to get a "hut" (umbrella) & chairs.

Review 14:Our room was not available they were oversold when we arrived and we were downgraded to a standard room for 1 night moved to the new room by 9:30 am and that night was credited in full - a minor minor bump but they stepped up and made it right - would return with no hesitation

Review 15:Truly truly Loved this resort

Review 16:The bar lacked atmosphere and some live music other than the hour of steel drums in the evening. It was quite expensive for food and drink.

Review 17:The staff, pool, beach, food and room.

Review 18:The website of the hotel gives a wrong impression of itself. If you are looking for a big resort with spa, activities, pools and other things, don't stay at Bucuti.

Review 19:the room. Very new....comfortable. Good staff. The beach of the hotel is very good.

Review 20:the dinner we had at Elements the first night was not good; fish was so tough, and just didn't like the food compared with everything else we ate on the island. also, housekeeping doesn't pick up and throw away empty bottles, etc.

Review 21:everyone was so friendly; beautiful beach. nice amenities. I loved the personalized touch.

Review 22:The only issue I had was with the Infiniti pool. I am 5'2" and could not go beyond last step. The water was too high. I found out the last day I could have used a noodle or small inner tube. Next time will be prepared.

Review 23:From the moment you arrive till you leave the entire staff is very friendly and helpful. The atmosphere is peaceful and restful. The property, room and food selection amazing. Will definitely return.

Review 24:Incredible view from the deluxe king room. Exactly like the pictures. Room was right up from the beach and was always cleaned immediately after coming back from breakfast. Each morning there was a huge variety to eat at the buffet and the staff was so accommodating. Many activities available to the adventurous type like sailing, snorkeling, off-roading in a jeep, etc but we couldn't get enough of the private beach!! Will absolutely be coming back here again!

Review 25:Only con was most restaurants were a bus or taxi ride away.

Review 26:The resort resort was on the prettiest section of beach in Aruba. Everything was very clean. Service was excellent. Peaceful and quiet.

Review 27:We stayed at Bucuti for our honeymoon and it was perfect. It was a great location to get wherever you needed to go- close to the airport and restaurants but with the most beautiful beach just steps from your room. The free breakfast (that was always a feast for us) really helps add value to the already reasonable cost of the resort. The staff literally made you feel at home and were so efficient while being warm at the same time. We took advantage of the free washer and dryer too which was a nice extra. We loved it- great job Bucuti!

Review 28:Best stretch of beach in Aruba. Clean facilities and a very attentive and courteous staff. The resort is well laid out, a tranquil setting to relax in.

Review 29:Everything was perfect. This is a small boutique hotel centered around relaxation. If you are looking for more action & activity you will have to cab more to Palm beach( high rise hotel area).

Review 30:The staff at Bucuti & Tara are beyond amazing. Apon checking in you are greeted with smiles and welcomes from the manager and concierge. This is the type of place they will do anything for you. I am well traveled and have never experienced such amazing customer service from a hotel.

Review 31:None from my experience . if you are looking for a hotel that is walking distance to a lot of stores and food then this might not be your best option, but u can take a short taxi ride if needed.

Review 32:The service was great, friendly and welcoming. The beach was perfect, clean and not crowded. The rooms and facilites were really nice, both in terms of style and cleanliness

Review 33:Everything! Super nice staff, very comfortable beds (we never had such a good bed during our holidays!), perfect view over the beach and ocean, very relaxing atmosphere. Service is amazing! Within one day after our return home we booked again for the same week next year! Absolutely loved it!!

Review 34:Only con was there seemed to be a shortage of hot water for the shower. The resort is green so I understand to a point, but cold morning showers were not fun

Review 35:Loved the friendly staff (Hi Frank, Deborah!), the room was well appointed, with mini fridge, microwave, coffee maker, along with the complimentary Ipad & WiFi for use while staying at the resort. The breakfasts were yummy! The beach to die for! Movie night was a blast!

Review 36:The price is expensive considering it is not all inclusive but I would pay it again. For the service and facilites :)

Review 37:Everything! Staff are super friendly and while they appreciate a tip its not expected. Facilities are great. Gym is open 24 hours so if you cant sleep you can have a workout. Bar is great. Nice seats/beds facing the sea where you can have a cocktail and watch the sun set Rooms cleaned every day if you want. Nice Pizza place across the street. No children on the property which was a big thing for us on our honeymoon.

Review 38:Prices are a bit high but worth it (although prices of the SPA are moderate). Location is a little far off from the rest of the action on the island. Always need a taxi or rental car, but so are all the hotels on Eagle and Manchebo Beach.

Review 39:THE place in Aruba for honeymooners or every other couple looking for a romantic getaway. The staff with its special and very personal but low key service, the facilities, the food (mostly organic and high quality), the beach, the luxurious beach chairs/umbrellas etc and every little detail made it an unforgettable experience for us. Plus it seemed to be one of the few adults-only resorts on the island which makes it even more so a quiet and relaxed place (sorry families, this one is for intimate romance and relaxation only). Of all the beaches with hotels on the island, the Bucuti and Tara has by far the absolute best stretch of beach.

Review 40:I think that for the price you pay to stay at the Bucuti, it would be nice to have the mini fridge be complimentary (within reason).

Review 41:The staff was extremely nice, helpful and courteous. The location is beautiful and so was the beach and ocean view. We loved the breakfast and the comfort, quality and availability of the beach chairs. We used the gym daily and loved the facility.

Review 42:The absence of children at this property is wonderful! (No kids under 18 allowed.)

Review 43:Relaxing, very chill

Review 44:Not European like coffee and tea

Review 45:Quiet resort, great staff, great gym

Review 69:Everything

Review 70:Elements.

Review 71:The internet never worked right. The suites were small and the way the lights were hooked up was confusing. The bathroom was small Room service would have been nice. The manager at the Elements restaurant was rude to us the last night we were there. We actually walked out and went somewhere else because of his tone of voice. My pedicure was cancelled because they had no one there to do it at that time. Very disappointed.

Review 72:We liked the couple only policy. The setting was beautiful.

Review 73:The Bucuti exceeded our expectations. The beach is fantastic, the rooms are good, the pool is great but the “extra mile” is on the details and the service. We were celebrating our 10th anniversary and the staff made that unforgettable. The “Elements” restaurant has very good alternatives for lunch and dinner and the breakfast is delicious. We loved the beach chairs and the tents.

Review 74:Rooms at becuti (not Tara) are outdated, the furniture is very old, the tv is ancient, beds and pillows uncomfortable etc. The room has 3 giant machines, an air purifier, dehumidifier and an air conditioner. All 3 make alot of noise, making it very difficult to sleep. I had to open the balcony door to sleep. Rooms are completely inadequate in every way, and way overpriced for what you get. You can hear (loudly) your neighbor flushing the toilet. Also didn't like the fact that there is no bottled water available for purchase anywhere on the resort. You're forced to drink tap. Only 1 restaurant on the resort which is accessible. The other one is only for dinner and impossible to reserve being rated the #1 restaurant in Aruba. They have an annoying towel rule where you have to return your towels each night and get new ones in the morning. This is recorded in a log as if you don't return your towel you might suffer the consequences. If you want to remain on the beach late you have to take your dirty/wet towels back to your room. They need to relax their rules, it cheapens the experience and adds to anxiety and frustration which should not be happening on vacation. If you're used to luxury, this is not it. Although chairs are plentiful, there is always a group of people who wake up before 7am and claim the front row beach chairs, which remain empty for several hours. Annoying! This is a vacation people, relax. This should be discouraged. The pool is abysmal. It is cold, deep, uninviting and just plain ugly. This explains why there was nobody in it. Overall impression: the result is aged and it shows. Nothing was done to maintain it.

Review 75:The beach area was probably the nicest in all of aruba, including the total area, quality of sand, lack of boats and jet skis and absence of crowds. Resort is small and not crowded even at it's maximum occupancy No Loud music or young drunk people No children Mostly undisturbed relaxation Staff at front desk and concierge are excellent and very pleasant. Probably the nicest I've ever encountered. plenty of beach chairs and umbrellas for everyone at any time if the day Very Good breakfast Overall a good and relaxing vacation, not luxurious by any means

Review 76:LOVE this adults-only resort! The location is perfect, and the new outdoor renovation is beautiful. Elements restaurant was so good that we ate there multiple times during our stay. The staff make you feel welcome and at home, but not in your face.

Review 77:No room service (not that big of a deal) On site restaurant "Element" food quality was poor and would not recommend (kind of a bummer because we left the property every night for dinner)

Review 78:The location was excellent. Our room was in the Tara building (all ocean view rooms) the room was big and had an amazing ocean view. Free daily American buffet breakfast was also included. Free wifi (great for streaming movies at nights). ***Make sure you only stay at the Tara building if you care about ocean view I would stay here again

Review 79:Happy hour was half price on only a few mixed drinks and should be on some wines as well. Access to this property was very much open to the general public to wander through from the parking lot on the one side of the Bucuti building.

Review 80:We liked the fact that this was a kid - free resort. The service was the best we've ever experienced at a resort. Cleanliness of the entire resort. The uncluttered view of the beach and ocean and the peacefulness in general.

Review 81:Everything of my staying at Bucuti & Tara suites was wonderful. It is perfect for couples, romance & honeymoon, no kids around, adults only. Thanks to Bucuti, I can't wait to come back.

Review 82:The place was spotless. Every time I turned around, staff were cleaning something. Our room was beautiful and comfortable. The staff was so helpful and friendly. In particular, I would like to single out Angelo at the beach bar/restaurant, who is the hardest working guy I have ever met, the ladies who host the breakfast each day, and Deborah, the general manager. These people could not have been any more wonderful.

Review 83:Room cleaning 3 times not done at 16:00 hrs, when we returned to our room. This should be done before 14:00 hrs.

Review 84:Quiet, no children allowed, extremely friendly and knowledgeable staff, spaceous room, well maintained, front desk very quick in responses, well organized beach area, good breakfast buffet.

Review 85:Here and there it could have been a bit cleaner, rooms are good but lack the nice atmosphere from the resort.

Review 86:Beach side was fantastic. So was dining at the beach. Great atmosphere, very nice staff.

Review 87:The resort is stylish. The beach is fantastic. And the breakfast by the sea is fantastic, taking the view into consideration I wonder if better breakfast exist anywhere?!?

Review 88:The personnel is "for sale": the more tip you give in especially therestaurant, the more they do for you. The atmosphere is "to willing"to get tips.It is to "American": the menu (Burgers and 8 oz of meat), the wine-list (sorted on grape, very unusual in Europe). Eating "a la cart" was disappointing.

Review 89:The place where it was situated: almost at the beach; the best beach ofAruba. A quite environment. The excellent room, the way we were welcomeat arrival.The way the hotel gave attention to environment was also very good.

Review 90:A really loud and raucous private party in the restaurant our last night. It drove most of the guests out of the bar, off the beach, and into their rooms to get away from the racket. I was told that the party is a once a year event for Carnival. I sure hope so!

Review 91:Very high-end establishment. Quiet, understated luxury. A major plus: no kids allowed! Wonderful, personalized service throughout. This place is a jewel.

Review 92:You have to log back into the internet every time you pick up your device.

Review 93:Adults only a true retreat

Review 94:Expensive for age/condition of rooms, wifi not reliable.

Review 95:Location, beach, staff.

Review 96:They need to provide better coffee Almost too quiet, no activities

Review 97:Beauty of the surroundings Food

Review 98:internet service unreliable

Review 99:A Beautiful Resort Amazing Staff from the Parking lot to the Beach First Class Plus Cannot wait to return

Review 100:weak orientation

Review 101:adult only

Review 102:beautiful property and location great service good food

Review 103:Quiet, friendly, classy

Review 104:the situation and the fact that it was for adults only.

Review 105:The staff and service were superb!

Review 106:A bit costly

Review 107:Relaxing atmosphere, quiet. Excellent service, helpful andaccommodating staff.
