    SHARINE June and Chef Ryan are the best staff at the resort

    Kyoto restaurant qas the best food and portion size we had at the entire resort. Professional, friendly and attentive staff included Sharine June and Chef Ryan. They made our final dinner here a night to remember. We had a really enjoyable time.

    Family trip in Barcelo Aruba

    The Barcelo resort delivered a great value for our family vacation: location was great, food and service was good, the room upgrade we received was amazing for our family. Special shout out to Jason from the Japanese restaurant and Carmen from the Italian restaurant - they went above and beyond. The Japanese restaurant was our favorite but all others were also good. We enjoyed the shows and the facilities. We would recommend Barcelo Aruba.

    Horrible Stay

    Dirty rooms, horrendous food and poorly kept up resort contributed to a not so perfect experience. Royal level manger Sandra did her best and she was awesome but the bottom line is the place is a dump. Pubic hair in my first bed, a clump of head hair in my second bed, staff slings drinks at you and it’s all well liquor, the higher end stuff that is available is sparse at best. The food quality is poor and after two days we began eating off resort. Every restaurant there prepares the exact same food. Will never ever god back.
