I recently stayed at Barcelo in Aruba, and while the beach and view were absolutely stunning, the property seems to be showing signs of wear and tear compared to my previous visits. On the plus side, the staff went above and beyond to ensure our experience was enjoyable, but the amenities could use some improvement, especially the dining options and maintenance of the pool area.

I had an amazing stay at Barcelo Aruba, enjoying a beautiful ocean view from my room on the 9th floor. The atmosphere was lively, and I found the beach area delightful, but I did struggle to find pool chairs since they filled up quickly in the mornings. While the staff was very friendly and accommodating, I felt let down that certain premium beach spots were exclusive to Royal club members. Overall, my experience was wonderful, and I plan to return.

Our stay at Barcelo All Inclusive on Palm Beach was fantastic! The resort is perfectly sized, with minimal crowds, making it a relaxing getaway. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our experience was memorable, particularly Renato who created a lovely beach dinner for us.

Overall, I highly recommend this resort for anyone looking for a fun and relaxing time by the beautiful beach.

We had a great week overall! The Royal level on the 9th floor was definitely worth it with its private dining and beachfront bar. The staff was excellent and made our stay enjoyable.
