Nov 06, 2025Laminated QR Codes for Reviews
I don’t appreciate staff pressuring guests to leave positive reviews using a QR code. They carry laminated QR codes and push for good ratings to serve their own agenda. Reviews should be genuine and organic.

Nov 05, 2025FRAMILY trip October 2025
Stayed at Barcelo Aruba for 9days/8 nights in October 2025 for our 5th trip.Had 9 couples in our group 8 had Royal level, 1 did not.It was definitely worth the price we paid to have Royal level however I would not say it is necessary.I was able to make a prior reservation with Veronica upon arrival which she was able to accommodate us for a dinner together.Only used room service 1 time. The Beach Bar was a plus.Ralph/server on the beach was good. HUDSON is the MAN on the beach. He took care of us every day getting chairs and tables for us on the beach. Restaurant staff was good, have to give a big SHOUT out to Jazon in Kyoto he was not only our server but he also entertained us. The breakfast omelet guy was fabulous in the buffet. The 1st club bartender DANIEL was great and always pleasant. The lobby bar at night Francheska was always there with our drinks. Maiah and the band for the DISCO in the ballroom was amazing!! Overall we had a GREAT trip this year and plan to be back in October 2026!!

WE LOVE MARY JEAN!
Mary Jean is amazing! She was generous and helpful and came to us every couple minutes. She was the best waitress and took care of us. Our drinks were never dry. Our food was warm. She also love to put a smile on her face. We love her!

Sad to have to leave
Had a great time. Met new friends for life and connected with some old friends from our past trip. The vibe is very inviting energetic, yet overall calming. Can't wait to come back.

Family vacation at Barcelo
Barceló was a lovely resort, Aruban Seafood was my favorite included restaurant; but what took the cake was my dinner at Kyoto! My server Jazon was hilarious, I’ll never forget how entertaining he was! We love memorable staff!
