Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort Aruba

Just book here immediately if you want the pinnacle relaxation experience in Aruba. It was a fantastic experience.

We have been coming to Bucuti Tara resort for the last 10 years during Christmas and New Year’s weeks. Words cannot express how wonderful this resort is kept. The cleanliness is remarkable. The entire staff is immensely, friendly and helpful. They are all there to make your stay memorable. We ate at both restaurants Elements and Terra where we enjoyed delicious meals. Lunch was enjoyed at the beach bar where you can also view supporting events on the TVs. The beach of soft white sand is so clean as the staff make sure there is no trash lying around. Each year we come back to some updates in our suite. The breakfast buffet which is included in your room fee has many selections plus made to order omelettes or eggs and waffles. We appreciate the quiet relaxing days while viewing the beautiful blue ocean and watching the cruise ships coming into port. The sunsets this year were the best ever and perfectly viewed from the resort. So if you wanna visit paradise, this is the place to go.

We’ve been coming to Aruba and staying at Bucuti yearly for the past 14 years. Since I haven’t reviewed in a while, I thought I’d add my 2 cents! Bucuti only gets better and better! A redesigned Elements and a new Michelin star restaurant as well as A beautiful outdoor deck for yoga, Pilates, TRX classes was completed since our last visit. We have been told that a complete renovation of the Bucuti side will happen in 2027. But the best is the amazing staff, now friends, who have welcomed us back year after year. So many of the same faces from our first visit! My husband and I feel so much peace and happiness when we are there. We never leave without booking the next visit!

We had an excellent stay at Bucuti & Tara and enjoyed another truly wonderful vacation. This resort never disappoints, and the service continues to be outstanding. Housekeeping deserves special recognition — Gersie (G-E-R-S-I-E, I believe) was incredible. Her attention to detail, warmth, and genuine care made our stay extra comfortable and memorable. Angel from pool service was also fantastic — attentive, friendly, and always ensuring everything was just right. The pool service was consistently excellent throughout our stay. From housekeeping to pool service and beyond, the entire staff was welcoming, professional, and kind. Bucuti & Tara remains a special place for us, and once again exceeded our expectations. We can’t wait to return.

Great resort for rest and great food and service. Beautiful beach and water. Aruba is a beautiful island with lots to offer
