Barceló Aruba - All Inclusive

We didn’t get checking into our room until 6:00 and that’s because when we got there at 4:15 the room wasn’t cleaned. The hot tub broke and needed to be fixed.

Great waiters, friendly and kind

Johnathan Hilliard at the seafood restaurant was fantastic - along with the food!

Jonathan was amazing. Service and quality of food was outstanding.

Breakfast at the Beach Club was very good. Switched it up from the main buffet. The view of the beach was so peaceful. Our server Joseph was outstanding. It was really wonderful to see such a hard working young man. His smile was infectious. Great way to start our day. He didn’t hesitate to accommodate our requests. He did it with joy, which in turn made us feel happy we chose Barcelo Aruba as our vacation destination. I see why you hired Joseph, he has a happy soul and he doesn’t hesitate to spread the joy. The Captain, Jamie, is just as kind. He greets you with a warm smile and a friendly disposition. I love it here. 🤗

Service was excellent by Rodell. Food was amazingly prepared. Rodell was professional and made great recommendations for our food choices. Definitely coming back.

Everything was amazing from the service to the location to the food we will be back again with our kids absolutely loved this country

Great staff very friendly and attentive Jozef at the beach club was awesome

Although it is advertised as a 5-star hotel, which I have enjoyed in the past. Oh, how things have changed. I would rate it 2.5 at the most. The food is nothing to speak of, and the pool situation is preposterous.

We could not get over how friendly the entire staff was! Front staff, bartenders, servers, cleaning staff, groundskeepers, they all greeted us with a smile and made sure to say hi. Hospitality is definitely a priority. The food was delicious! We had great dinners at all 4 restaurants. The buffet had a huge variety and had some different choices every day. The omelet bar, pasta bar, and grill, were a great touch to the buffet for fresher food. The choices of drinks were great! It wasn't just cheap liquor like we thought it would be. Great options in whiskey, vodka, rum, and tequila. The "fruity" drinks at the swim up bar tasted great and we had a new favorite every day! Finally, the location was great! The beach was clean and you could walk for miles in either direction. We loved laying under the palm trees instead of umbrellas and huts like the other resorts. Right behind the resort was entertainment if you chose to leave the resort. Shops, restaurants, bars, and clubs were just across the street so there was plenty to do if you just wanted to get out for a bit. And no matter where you went, it never felt unsafe.
