Easily the most stunning resort we’ve ever stayed at. Adults only and only 104 rooms makes for intimate and romantic environment. Incredible for anyone looking to find some luxury and peace. We will return again.

Hard to dislike anything about the property, it was a fantastic vacation & the best I've had in a decade. The resort was 5 stars on all levels. I can't see staying anywhere else on my next trip there. Kudos to all the staff at Bucuti & Tara. Excellent job.

We loved the location - away from the main city but close to everything. The beach was gorgeous and there were enough umbrellas for everyone. Breakfast each morning was awesome - we enjoyed having whatever type of coffee we wanted specially made for us as we dined alfresco looking at the turquoise blue waters. The service at Bucuti was top notch - we were well taken care of!

Bucuti is great but extremely quiet (aside from the constant Aruba wind). The breakfast is fantastic. It was the first time I slept on a Tempur-Pedic mattress and I was OK with it.

Everything was great. The people were terrific, the accommodations were good and the food was also quite good. My only complaint was that our flight was delayed, and when we asked for a later check out time, all they could offer was 1 extra hour, which meant that we had to sit around for an additional 3 1/2 hours doing nothing, with no access to our room or shower facilities.
