The food is just so very very terrible. Did I say how terrible the food is. Kond of appalling actually. Shameful. It’s cheaper and more pleasant to just skip this place and opt out of all inclusive at ANY restaurant in the area. Kind of ridiculous to say that. Having stayed at all hotels on the beach in Palm Beach, I can teatify this is the very worsy one of them. Rooms are not much, beach is not much. Atmosphere is “supervised.” Did I say the food is just awful? So bad.

The experience in Aruba was wonderful. The beach and pool areas were a challenge to access without an early wake up or a $20 contribution. Dining was plentiful but creativity could improve.Orientation via employee or booklet would benefit clearer the on site activities morning , noon and evening events. Very enjoyable / staff was awesome

Not enough chairs at pool. People would put towels on chairs and not be there for hours. No one to monitor this issue. Chairs were taken at 6:00 a.m. Food was okay but not great. Nightly entertainment was terrible.

Horrible Experience at Barcelo Aruba – Avoid at All Costs! I don’t even know where to begin with how awful my experience at Barcelo Aruba was. From the moment I arrived, the check-in process was a disaster. The front desk staff was unbelievably rude, and to make matters worse, the manager, Isabella, had a terrible attitude. She was dismissive and unhelpful, making it clear that guest satisfaction was not a priority. When I finally got to my room—at 6 PM, mind you—there were no towels. How does a resort not have towels ready for guests? Completely unacceptable. As for the food, the buffet was disgusting, comparable to cafeteria food you'd find in a low-budget school. I was expecting fresh, flavorful options, but everything was bland, overcooked, and clearly not made with quality in mind. The drinks were another major disappointment. Nearly everything served around the property was completely watered down, making it feel like a waste of time to even bother ordering. The only exception was the bar in the casino, which had the best drinks and actually seemed to care about making them properly. To top it all off, the staff was extremely colorist, especially at the front desk, where they made it clear that they treated some guests better than others. This was beyond frustrating and honestly ruined any chance of me ever returning. Barcelo Aruba was a complete letdown, and I would never recommend this resort to anyone. Save your money and go somewhere else

Rooms & halls were always nice & clean. Buffet had lots of selections & service was excellent. Beach was clean with lots of lounge options. Drinks ordered and served right on the beach. Car rental office and tour office in the lobby. Easy restaurant reservation @ guest services. Ready to do it all over again !

No coffee shop on property, just machines...recommend to walk down the path to dunkin donuts. Even though your on a beach, they have dress code for buffett.. no front row palapas... bring your own umbrella or rent one daily or weekly...no outdoor bar area besides pool bar that closes at 7pm, no outside night time enjoyment..spent majority of our time off resort even though we were all inclusive.. alot of shopping and dining just across the street from resort which was a huge plus.

Overall the hotel was great! It offered fantastic service, a variety of nightly entertainment, very clean bathrooms, lots of extra seats around the pool, comfortable beds, and decent beverages. The beach was awesome! Coffee excellent! Some of the buffet food was only ok. And most of the dinners in the restaurants were only ok! All said and done this did not take away from a beautiful getaway to one happy place! Thank you! Jane
