    Fun resort

    Great location and a fun resort! Best restaurants are the italian (ask for Simeon, he was fantastic) and the Mexican ( ask for Gerard and Rodell. They were outstanding!). Pool was fun. Pool and beach chairs are a pain in the butt to get. Rooms are fine. Staff for the most part are friendly and helpful.

    OVER THE TOP birthday kindness

    I needed to review Barcelo Aruba again, after the outstanding experience we had last Fall. Our dear friend, who had a rough 2025 joined us again at the Resort. It was his birthday that week. The Staff, including the outstanding Aurelia Croes, Claudia, Sandra, and a list, too long to add, actually planned a SURPRISE BIRTHDAY CELEBRATION during our lunch at the Palm Buffet. Our friends, along with NEW friends we made during that stay had an unbelievable display of generosity and kindness to Rich and his family. Several birthday cakes were displayed, performers from the evening show and staff joined to make his day so extra special. Unbelievable planning, on their parts! Bravo, to staff members Arleen, Hayley, Shamira, and Samira for helping decorate with candles, cake, singing, and balloons! No other Resort would even think of doing such acts of kindness!
