    The kindest people.

    Melvin and Karina were awesome and very helpful. Our trip wouldn’t have been amazing without them. They were kind and friendly.

    Our second time at the Barcelo - can't wait to come back for a third time!

    We stayed on the Royal level for the first time (we had previously stayed on the regular floor). Everything was wonderful! We had breakfast every day at the Royal dining room, and the staff was all friendly and attentive. Karina was especially welcoming. We also dined at the Arubian Seafood and L'Olio restaurants at the resort. Both were excellent!

    Pleasant stay amazing staff

    It was a very nice stay rooms are clean, beds are comfortable and almost all the restaurants are good. Disappointed in the royal level food compared to others. The people that made our trip was Ralph for the beach bar service. He was so friendly, accommodating and personable which was very enjoyable. Also a shoot out to Yurianne at the Palm restaurant she is so pleasant and happy we love her. Both need a raise and make sure these are the kind of people you keep around as it makes us more likely to return

    Happy Family on Happy Island

    My family and I celebrated my husband's 75th birthday at the beautiful Barcelo Aruba - All inclusive. Besides the beautiful property, they were very accommodating to us. They knew it was his 75th birthday and provided us with a gorgeous suite with an ocean view. Belinda and Ivette, First Club Concierge, accommodated us in ensuring that our needs were met. Daniel, the Best Mixologist in the World, made fabulous drinks and he is so skilled that he can make any drink you desire Outstanding. My husband's birthday dinner at the L'Olio Restaurant was outstanding. The Matre'd and our waiter were impeccable. I am so sorry that I cannot remember their names, but I can only assume that this high level of service is standard for the restaurant. The lounge waitresses were also very accommodating. If you are looking for a place to go with your family or even as a couple that is a one stop full of amenities - Barcelo-Aruba is the place to go. The food at all of the venues was excellent and the service from everyone within this facility is top notch. I am a traveler, and I recognize quality. Barcelo-Aruba epitomizes a happy place on a happy Island.
