    First time to Aruba

    From the moment you get out of your ride from the airport you are made to feel welcome and appreciated. No matter where you go on the property there is always someone making sure you have everything you could want or need. I've never been anywhere like this. I would recommend this place to anyone who wants a completely care free vacation. The beach is phenomenal.

    Bucuti is the best resort in the Caribbean

    Nothing comes close to Bucuti. It is the most elegant and romantic resort in the Caribbean and has the best beach in the world. We have been to Bucuti three times and each time has been magical. It is not an all inclusive and it is adults only. And the staff creates an environment where you can truly relax and unplug.
