Treat yourself to an unforgettable experience at one of the best beaches in the world.
We chose Aruba and then Bucuti & Tara for our honeymoon and it turned out to easily be one of the best hotel experiences we have had. From the moment we arrived the hotel staff was very courteous and made so many special arrangements for our honeymoon. The resort is located at the quietest part of the iconic Eagle beach and with our ocean facing room the waves were but a few steps away. In addition they arrange a lot of experiences you can be a part of like beach yoga, tai chi, beach movie evening etc. The resort also boasts one of the best restaurants in Aruba and offer things like romantic dinners, packed beach picnics etc. The servers are very sweet and outgoing and make your dining an unforgettable experience . The romantic dinner was definitely one of the highlights of the trip

Magnificent Location with Stellar accommodations & Service
Bucuti & Tara is truly a magnificent resort. The location is so beautiful, the beach and pool are clean, easily accessible and wonderful, and the service is above and beyond phenomenal. If you are looking for a place to swim, relax, unwind, enjoy amazing food and drinks - with perfect weather, this is the place! The system for reserving an umbrella is brilliant - no hassles; this is truly a worry free vacation. Everyone on staff is the best!
