Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort

I can’t say enough good things about Bucuti and Tara! I’ve been fortunate to have stayed here 3 times over the last 15 years and each time have been blown away by the experience. This time, we were instantly greeted by Nora offering a celebratory glass of champagne. She checked us in and immediately tended to whatever we needed. She even had some unique suggestions for activities which culminated in an unexpected glass blowing excursion that was amazing. The grounds are expertly manicured and the entire staff is beyond friendly and helpful. Not a single person passes you by without saying hello and asking how you’re doing. The beach area is relaxed and accommodating, with excellent service. The selection of restaurants on site is superb, we specifically had dinner at both Elements and Terra and the meals were outstanding. The complimentary breakfast is always great with the most friendly staff on the island taking care of you. I can’t forget calling out Juan who is easily the happiest and most friendly person I may have ever met, starting out every day with a great friendly attitude and always very helpful and accommodating. Again I can’t recommend this resort enough if you’re looking to relax and experience Aruba amongst a great group of people.

What an incredible stay at Bucuti & Tara! The staff were hands-down the most attentive we've encountered, anticipating every need with genuine warmth. The ambiance is beautiful and serene, the perfect escape to unwind. We loved the fitness facility with outdoor classes, and Saturday movie night on the beach was such a fun touch. Breakfast was delicious too, with an included buffet offering ample choices and quality ingredients. The cocktail menu was great, and there's no shortage of umbrella-covered seating to relax in. Truly a special place. Highly recommend!

Absolutely incredible stay at Bucuti & Tara! The resort sits on what has to be one of the most beautiful beaches we’ve ever seen — Eagle Beach is truly spectacular. The adults-only atmosphere makes it the perfect place to relax, unwind, and enjoy the incredible setting. The food was excellent, the customer service was exceptional, and every member of the staff went out of their way to make us feel welcome. What we loved most was the chill, peaceful vibe. There’s no pressure, no chaos — just a beautiful beach, great food, wonderful service, and plenty of opportunities to relax. Bucuti & Tara is the kind of place where you immediately start wishing you could stay longer. We absolutely loved our time here and would come back in a heartbeat!

We’ve stayed on Aruba at least 7 or 8 times. This was our 1st time at the Bucuti & Tara resort and were ecstatic at our experience. We’ve primarily stayed at the Ritz Carlton in the past and the Marriott before the RC opened. This was by the most personalized and stress free stay we’ve had. We especially appreciated not having to run to the beach to get out chairs and umbrella at 7AM. The Bucuti lets you reserve them on their app starting at 5PM the night before and they are yours for the day. The staff is outstanding with personalized experience latterly from the moment we arrived. The beach is wide and there is plenty of room between umbrella set ups that you never once feel crowded on the beach unlike the other hotels we’ve stayed at on the island. Free breakfast daily with omelettes and waffles made to order and again the staff outstanding! The resort was everything we hoped for and more. Great food, on-site gym, and spa. Highly recommend it as an adult getaway. We brought our 19 y/o son in his own room and it was great for everyone !

We just returned from our 7th trip to Aruba and this was our 5th stay at Bucuti & Tara. I can't say enough great things about this resort. We stay in a Tara suite and the room is spacious and inviting. The bed is comfortable and the bathroom is very nice. We enjoy the extra living space and relax on the sofa while enjoying the evening teas sent to our room. The staff is very friendly and helpful. We have the concierge book our excursions and dinners in advance. We always enjoy talking to Angela as she has helped us many times over the years. We usually come in October, but this year we decided to stay July 30th-August 5th. The weather was more comfortable in July although more windy. We enjoyed having lunches poolside and the service was very prompt and attentive. The burgers and bitterballen are fantastic and go great with a Chill or Pina Colada. They are just starting a room remodel/refresh and we can't wait to come back next year. We love Bucuti & Tara!
