Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort Aruba

Bucuti and Tara is a very special place in Aruba. Beautiful, friendly and very helpful staff who are always available to take care of anything you may need.

We went to Bucuti & Tara for our honeymoon and it was amazing! It is truly paradise. The team is so friendly and goes above and beyond when it comes to service. Resort is very clean. Food is great. There are 3 restaurants on site and each offer something different. The beach was beautiful. Soft white sand with crystal clear water and no seaweed. Very relaxing vibe with close proximity to the palm beach strip.Everything was perfect. We loved our stay and did not want to leave. We cant wait to go back.

First two stays were unbelievable our last had a Safety issue that was poorly handled. It only takes one issue at this price point to sour on the entire Resort.

Everything, from every single staff member, to the location, to the room, to the amenities, was top notch. The location is amazing and the rooms are comfortable and clean. The staff always went above and beyond from the minute we arrived to the minute we left. We absolutely would not have changed a thing and couldn't have asked for anything to be better. If you want to start your day eating a phenomenal buffet breakfast literally on the beach, spend the day lounging in the sand and the ocean attended to by the friendliest, fastest, hardest-working servers, and finish the day with the best possible sunset views from either your balcony or the beach, then look no further. We are so happy we picked Bucuti and Eagle Beach over all the other choices!

We just returned from an incredible 5 nights at Bucuti & Tara and could not have had a better experience from start to finish. Our travel agent has been recommending it for 12+ years and we now understand why! STAFF: From the moment we stepped on the property the staff took amazing care of us - they were friendly, attentive, happy and always seeking to go above and beyond but they were not overwhelming in any way. They helped us book an excursion, served our every need on the beach each day, kept our room impeccably clean, figured out our preferences and kept our coffee station stocked with our coffee and tea, took the time to check in on us regularly, served up an incredible breakfast each day, helped us wind down with post-dinner cocktails and kept us laughing along the way. ROOM: We stayed in a Tara Suite and it was incredible. The room was huge with a well sized bathroom with dual sinks, toilet and shower. The living area had a large sectional couch and TV and the sleeping area was generous with a King Sized bed - all beautifully furnished, well kept and clean. But the view stole the show! It truly could not be beat - palm trees, white sandy and beautiful waters as far as the eye could see. AMENITIES: We are “beach bums” and spent all day on the beach. You can reserve your beach chair on the app/website at 5pm the day before. We were always able to secure 2nd or 3rd row seats. We found the front row seats were empty the majority of the day with people reserving them and then barely using them which was a bit frustrating but we didn’t let it ruin the experience. We enjoyed many cocktails and most lunches from our beach chairs which was perfect. The loungers were comfortable, there were ample towels and many guests brought the floats from the pool out to the ocean to enjoy. We did use the concierge to book a catamaran snorkel excursion with De Palm Tours which we absolutely loved. FOOD: Breakfast at Elements each day was incredible - a beautiful spread plus an Omelette and waffle bar. Coffee and tea drinks and a small “to order” menu were all included. We also enjoyed lunch from Elements on the beach each day. We loved the chicken wrap, Mahi Mahi sandwich and pizzas. And make sure you try the truffle fries! Our 2 dinners at Elements were some of the best meals we’ve ever had with an incredible atmosphere. And we found ourselves at the Elements bar nearly every night after dinner. The grounds were beautiful and impeccably maintained and we saw several iguanas. We found the location to be great - on a beautiful beach, easy to get just about anywhere but away from the bigger crowds. We were celebrating my 40th birthday and left our 3 young kids at home so we weren’t grateful for the adults only property, even at the restaurants. We had an incredible stay and will absolutely be back!
