Jul 08, 2025Honeymoon in Aruba
We were recommended by a friend who owns a travel agency. We told him what type of experience we wanted verses desired locations. After that without hesitation he pointed us in the direction of Bucuti & Tara. I checked every box for what we were looking for. The beach, the hotel, the food and customer service was top notch. Beach was amazing with a relaxing atmosphere. Customer service was first class from start to finish. Christopher at the front desk was an absolute blessing to our trip. Karen & Angel at the bar and restaurant provided excellent service and cocktails. They made us feel at home and were a pleasure to interact with. Overall our stay was amazing and I do not know how anyone could possibly find something wrong with this place! We will be back!

Bucuti & Tara Aruba
This is an excellent resort. I would highly recommend it. The staff goes above & beyond and takes care of everything quickly and efficiently. Everyone is very friendly as well. The rooms, beach area, pool area, beach/pool bathrooms, and common areas are all pristine. I can't wait for my next visit.

Perfect getaway
Arguably the best stay anywhere we have had. The staff is always happy, there to assist in anything. Food was great, beach was even better. We are very picky and this exceeded our standards. we got the deluxe room ( I believe) so front beach view king bed.

Best Vacation EVER
This adults-only resort was quiet but it was so relaxing. The suite we stayed in was very clean and we were surprised with a couple of gifts for our honeymoon. The breakfast food at Elements was delicious. The staff were all extremely kind and truly cared about making our stay the best it could possibly be. Upon arrival, staff greeted us and walked us into the resort while they took care of our luggage. Everything was amazing and I am counting down the days until we can stay with them again. Right outside the resort were turtle nesting spots. A couple resorts down from us we were able to see baby turtles come out of their nest and head to the ocean, which was amazing! All of our excursions picked us up right from our resort so be sure to check that out as well. If you are deciding on booking your stay at Bucuti & Tara don’t hesitate any longer and book it now!! Also Christopher, who works at the front desk, was very personable and a lot of fun.
