    Barcelo will never see me again!!!

    *REAL REVIEW * Barcelo Aruba is a RIP-OFF!! Girls trip we paid in May. We booked the room with double beds & even left a comment reminding the hotel we needed separate beds. We did not get what we paid for. Management states the website does not guarantee double beds. But if you go on the Barcelo Aruba site it has 2 options for waterfront room: pics of Double beds & King bed. The manager stated she could not accommodate us. So for ppl going with a friend, this place will put you both in the same bed!!! This is FALSE ADVERTISING!!! Imagine flying over 3hrs and not getting what you paid for! In addition the room is old. Paint chipping, headboard dirty, no washrags. There are so many negatives. Never again!! Barcelo anything will never get my money.

    Aruba is a great island to vacation in and most well spent at the Barceló.

    Food and service were exceptional!!! Will definitely be coming back here again. All inclusive drinks and food are worth the money for sure.

    Excellent Resort with great staff

    Leonora from the Philippines was my host, great service at Kyoto Japanese. The resort is fantastic, don’t let the loosers who post false reviews deter you. The staff are very friendly and attentive, all the restaurants are like this. Food is ok, we found the specialty restaurants to be above par. Resort is clean and has excellent A/C which you will need.
