From the moment we arrived, the hotel room that was assigned to us was still being cleaned. We had to wait outside the hotel room for them to finish cleaning. Then the fridge was not on and smelled, we called for 2 days and nobody came to check on it until the 3rd day we were there. After they checked it, the fridge was still not cold enough. I wouldn't recommend this place to any of my friends.

Nice hotel easy access to the beach in the back of hotel. Hotel is in the strip of restaurants and stores, nice location. If you are looking for the night life and turn up spots then this hotel which is located on beach area is where you want to be. South Beach bar/lounge and Fat Tuesdays is where you want to go.

Property was beautiful and clean. Staff was kind helpful and always happy. The only area that would keep us from returning is the food. Breakfast was fine. Lunch not so good. Dinner was ok not very appetizing. We left the property once for dinner which was amazing food. Overall our very first experience in Aruba was great. We would definitely return to your island. We wish you could offer a stay with drink package only (unless the food option can be upgraded to a higher level). Thank you for your staff and beautiful property.

We recently stayed at Barcelo Aruba as a couple and unfortunately, our experience did not meet expectations. From the moment we arrived, the front desk staff were noticeably unfriendly and unwelcoming — not the warm greeting you’d hope for when starting a vacation. The resort itself feels very dated and in serious need of upgrades. Our room was only stocked with one towel for two people, and despite calling for another, it took over an hour for it to be delivered. Simple necessities like the Wi-Fi passcode or towel cards were not included in the welcome envelope, leaving us confused and having to chase down basic information. There were also clear maintenance issues throughout the property. There was a leak directly above one of the cook stations, which felt unsanitary and unsafe. On the 4th floor where we stayed, the hallways smelled like sewage, and there were towels scattered on the floor to catch leaks — not exactly the relaxing atmosphere we were hoping for. The pool area was also overcrowded, and we struggled to find chairs daily. The pool itself is quite small for the number of guests the resort accommodates. Even the fridge in our room was understocked, with not enough bottled water for two people. Overall, we were disappointed with the quality of service, cleanliness, and upkeep of the resort. For the price and the Barcelo brand, we expected much more. We would not return or recommend this resort to others.

This was my 1st time in Aruba, I was told it was amazing. My experience in resort left a bad impression on people of Aruba, some staff members were rude. No microwave area. You have to pay for room service in an all-inclusive. I could not take any food from restaurants back to my room. My daughter got food poisoning, and I could not bring her a soup. I am on a 6 small meal diet and that was not accommodated. Pool in the afternoon filled with Debrie & floating cups, drinks by pool watered down. night events scheduled for 10pm. Reservation for all restaurants needed except buffet. Japanism restaurant preferred to throw out uneaten meal then have you take it with you, no alcohol bar in room. Overall, not what I had in mind, prices over inflated. Great things- beach is amazingly beautiful, great air conditioning in room. Beautiful rock display by buffet area where lizards make home. Ceasar bartender by the bar was the friendliest and kindest. Waiter at seafood restaurant who went out of his way to give us desert to take back with us to room.

Buffet was aweful. You have to pay for room service, which I’ve never had to do before. Only one person working the front desk, room was freezing & we called 4 times; no one ever came. They are VERY stern about the number of towel cards you get-no card =no towel, you lose the card, key or wrist band there is a healthy fee for each one. Dinners-were actually good, however you have to make reservations as soon as you get there. Very safe as there is security. Oh, if you want a bungalow or a chair at the beach, better get there around 5 am. Beach is stunning, resort not so much. We were there from 6/15-6/21/25. Would not recommend this “resort”.

The bathroom sinks had faucets too short for the sink so as you opened the faucet, water soaked the counter top. Also too difficult to get your hands under the faucet to clean your hands. The food was not good even at the Japanese restaurant, the Royal level restaurant, and common buffet on the property. If you want good cuisine, best to go local. The iron board was a table top board. Making it difficult to iron dresses and long pants. Unusual from most other resorts we’ve booked through Expedia. We were upgraded to Royal level. There were a few enhanced features we weren’t made aware of causing us to nearly miss out on the benefits. Our ceiling fan wasn’t working. We called for maintenance who was unable to repair it. He told us he would have a specialist tend to it. No one showed up and the fan remained nonfunctional. My last gripe is at the common buffet, you have to stand on line to wait to be seated which is ok but most guests did not know this and sat anywhere. The seater asked them to get up only to place them in the adjacent table in the same area. The price is good. The staff was great but we’ve decided we would check out another all inclusive resort when we return to Aruba.

Overworked staff. Short staffed after new management took over. This was told to us by staff members directly. Don’t know the manager’s name my husband and I complained to, but he just walked away instead of listening. Complained to the front desk and received a little card asking how they could help make our stay better. Maintenance was finally sent to the room 2 days later. My husband and I were getting ready to go out when maintenance came. Because of this they never came back and nothing was fixed our whole stay. Unfortunately, I can’t upload a video showing the safe damage, closet sliding door damage and the sliding door damage along with the difficulty opening and closing to get in and out of the super narrow balcony. The room smelled musty due to the AC system. The pictures show rusty and moldy lamps. Feel bad about staff because they are working hard, while I saw several managers sitting and eating for an hour on separated occasion’s.
