Amazing views, close to everything, a lot to do on the resort. Love the beach access and stuff included that we could use like snorkel and floats. Would go back!
From check in to check out everything was great the room the food the pool the beach everything was awsome they even sent a bottle of champagne to my room for my anniversary Thank you Barcello Aruba
We love Aruba, was an amazing trip. Beaches are wonderful, it is very safe. The hotel it is very small and old but very clean. Good for cauples with out children. We went out in a car by ourself and in a tour, we love it.
Staff was friendly and accommodating. The resort is gorgeous with plenty of space to lounge at the pool and beach. We celebrated our honeymoon at this resort 30 years ago when it was the Americana, and returned for our 30 year anniversary. The staff surprised us with a bottle of champagne in our room. Great experience! Highly recommend this resort!!
The property was excellent. The food selections were great. The proximity to off property shopping and restaurants was fantastic. Very walkable area. Everyone is extremely helpful and friendly. Loved the island. Be adventurous and take the public bus. It’s so easy and cheap compared to the taxis.cant wait to get back.
Excellent location, great amenities, accommodating staff, secure (lots of security), games, swim up bar, nice selection of food at buffets & the Italian and hibachi restaurants were the best!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The room was clean, were you opened the entrance front door room was smelling,the balcony the maintenance team needed to clean the cigarette from the roof.
Only issue was having clean towels. On going issue. But everything else was amazing. Restaurants on premise excellent if you do not want to go to the buffet every day. Everyone there super friendly.
Staff is exceptional and service is great but the building and rooms are very dated and the furniture in the rooms as well as common areas are too old to be comfortable or clean. Very little entertainment in the resort and the two pool tables in the lobby were out of service all week. If you are staying here, best to plan excursions and off resort activities. Food was ok, but it is a lot of the same things all week - much better food just outside the resort at the restaurants. Beach was clean and we could find chairs and spots quite easily at any time we went.
Great hotel beautiful property great location on palm beach
A bit of confusion with the front desk upon check in even after the pre check in forms were completed
Didn’t receive the room originally asked for because they were all taken?? Even with a reservation that was a bit annoying
All in all it was beautiful and staff very friendly
Would stay again
Hotel is in a great location because it is across the street from the main downtown shops/restaurants. Also it was great to go back and forth from the beach and pool all day. Swim up bar is in a great location for a beach day or pool day
The restaurants was really good and the pool and beach was good. One big complaint was they don’t have enough beach towels for their guests I went first day at 4 pm no towels I said ok it late then day 2 I went at 10 am still no towels. Other thing was one of our beds was sunken in like broken. Staff was nice.
