Bucuti Beach Resort in Aruba isn’t a huge place, which helps make the stay more intimate. Their 140 rooms range from basic-but-nice to the more extravagant penthouse suites, which have balconies like the one above. The outdoors space give great views of the beach, ocean and the Pirate’s Nest restaurant with the masts of the ship visible on the right. A full breakfast buffet at the restaurant is included for all rooms.

The penthouse suites also have amazing bathrooms with beautiful soaking tubs, perfect for a romantic honeymoon evening.

Even the most basic rooms at Bucuti are welcoming and comforatble. Most rooms feature a king bed and a private balcony.

Guest are often welcomed with a bottle of wine or bubbly in the room. Honeymooners each get a glass of champagne during check-in (talk about starting the trip off right!) and are encouraged to sit down and relax right away. Nashette usually greets the couples and welcomes them personally. The hotel staff escorts them to their rooms and they’re greeted with treats like chocolate or cheese and crackers.

All of the balconies at Bucuti face either the beach and Caribbean Sea or the peaceful and quiet landscaped garden.
