Barceló Aruba - All Inclusive

The pool was very enjoyable. It has two hot tubs and the staff has entertainment during the day. The swim up bar is excellent. The bartenders work very hard and are quick with your drink. The resort is very clean and the staff is so helpful Cannot wait to go back.

Barcelo Aruba , it was an okay experience. I think they could do better they have potential. Five days that i spent there it was impossible to find a chair available by the pool. Buffet food very blah it didn't have a very variety. Been Aruba i expected to find more friendly staff members. When i booked my vacation i had asked for a two queen size beds. Never got it instead we a got a one kind size bed, when i spoke with the front desk the day of arrival i was told that they would try to get a another room and let me know. Never did. The one thing that i have to say is that the restaurants in the resort the food was very good. At aleast that. Definitely i love Aruba is one happy island 🏝 and i will definitely come back but i will stay in a different resort.

Absolutely loved our room. Everything was perfect wouldn’t change a thing and we will be back.

Check in and check out at the front desk was disorganized. No lines and was a free for all. Need to do better being more efficient here.

American Airlines cancelled my flight to Aruba so I wasn’t able to check in to this expensive hotel. I’ve repeatedly asked for reimbursement/ refund! This is not acceptable!

Overall the place was great, the staff was amazing. My only complaint was that there was not enough pool or beach chairs for how many guests they accommodate. Also, their restaurant selection isn’t the best but the buffet was great.

Barcelo Aruba's staff were polite and very helpful. The premises however were worn out and need renovation. We were told that there have been several owners in a row who have not done what is necessary for maintenance. There are also shortages of towels and difficulties in finding spots at the pool (or out of the sun at the beach) unless one goes there to reserve at 6:30 am. The food was plentiful but only average even at the "special" restaurants. The drinks were syrupy and watered down in general. Hopefully if renovated and the cuisine improved, this would really be an excellent hotel.

The staff are nice when you are interacting with them. The pool is a nice size, nice swim up bar. AC in the room works. There’s no negative remarks I would make. I, along with my family and friends enjoy our stay at Barcelo Aruba & will plan to go back.

I think more shade huts need to be added on the beach
