Arubas only hotel to earn the coveted accolade has a dream team of housekeepers averaging 30 years with the hotel

April 4th in Seville, Spain, the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC) announced Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort of Aruba, as the winner of the Climate Action Award at the Tourism for Tomorrow Awards ceremony.

For as long as I have been a part of Bucuti & Tara – thirty-two years now - I have taken great pride and pleasure knowing I was part of something bigger and more rewarding than simply a resort hotel operation.

If you follow us on social media, you have learned that Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort has been named by TripAdvisor as the #1 most romantic resort in the Caribbean and the #8 most romantic resort in the World…yes!...the World! We’ve spent a lot of time thinking about what it means to be romantic and we asked our guests, what it means to them, and this is what they told us.

“The Leatherback Turtles are Aruba’s oldest repeat guests” says Edith van der Wal, the president of Turtugaruba, the local foundation dedicated to protecting the Leatherback’s nesting on our Eagle Beach. “Leatherbacks have been nesting in Aruba for thousands of years” Edith and her volunteers disperse to beaches all around Aruba during nesting and hatching seasons to also look after Loggerhead, Green and Hawksbill turtles too.

If you have been a guest at our resort, you know we enjoy the best location on expansive and peaceful Eagle Beach, the #3 Beach in the World according to TripAdvisor. Guests enjoy more beach space per person than at any other resort on Aruba. Bucuti & Tara is even the only resort on island with more beach chairs than guests, so there is always room for you — we guarantee it.

Did you know that the Aloe leaf contains over 240 nutritional and medicinal ingredients, including vitamins, minerals, enzymes, sugars, lignin, saponins, sterols, amino acids, salicylic acid, and the list continues on... No other natural product contains so many ingredients beneficial to ones health.

Enjoy a romantic dip in Arubas Natural Pool, petroglyphs at the Ayo rock formations, the discovery of an abandoned Palm Tree plantation forest, an encounter with spirited wild goats and the awe felt as you witness the white spray of the sea crashing against the black lava north coast...these are only some of the amazing sights and sounds you will enjoy during a hike in Arikok.

The stunning and colorful original art adorning Bucuti guestrooms & Tara suites is created by an internationally recognized artist who is close to our hearts.

Meet Alice, who is equally impressive as a street art mural as she is a local heroine and champion of the arts in Aruba. "Alice" is one of the many amazing murals created as part of the Aruba Art Fair taking place each October in San Nicolas
