Sweden comes in first, followed by Canada, Norway, Portugal and Belgium. My adopted country Spain comes in at number 10, but my native country the USA is just…

How should travelers/travel industry respond to Brunei's barbarism against gays?

Many voices in the civilized world have been speaking out in horrified outrage at Brunei's new edict  decreeing death by stoning for gay sex, and numerous individuals and institutions joining a boycott. Should travelers and the travel industry/media join as well by not traveling to, working with, or covering Brunei, nor other entities associated with it such as the nine luxury hotels in the West owned by its sultan, such as London's Dorchester, the Plaza Athénée in Paris, and the Beverly Hills…

  • BUCUTI & TARA BEACH RESORTS HONORED WITH PRESTIGIOUS
    “GOLDEN TULIP HOTEL OF THE YEAR” AWARD


    Golden Tulip Hospitality Group chooses Bucuti as one of the twelve best hotels worldwide


    EAGLE BEACH, Aruba – November 8, 2010 – Bucuti & Tara Beach Resorts, Aruba’s premier resort for couples, is proud to announce that it is a recipient of the Golden Tulip Hospitality Group’s "Golden Tulip Hotel of the Year" for the Americas. The prestigious award is based on the results of the organization’s Quality Assurance Programme, which relies on a yearly mystery guest visit evaluating the hotel’s standards in terms of quality, maintenance, cleanliness, services and brand identity.

    The principle of the Golden Tulip “Hotel of the Year” Awards is to have not more than one hotel rewarded by brand and by region, which enables the Golden Tulip Hospitality Group to reward the very best hotels in its chain. Bucuti was one of only twelve hotels to receive this esteemed award for 2010. The audit was conducted by BDRC, the current largest UK independent research consultancy firm, leading in hotel and hospitality industry research.

    “We are deeply honored to be recognized among such an elite group of establishments,” said Bucuti’s President and CEO Ewald Biemans. “The Golden Tulip Hotel of the Year award is a tribute to the dedication and professionalism that our associates exhibit day in and day out. A resort can only achieve this level of recognition by having a top-notch team committed to providing an outstanding experience for each and every guest.” Bucuti has been affiliated with Golden Tulip since opening in 1987.

    An award-winning, owner-managed resort, Bucuti has also been recognized by TripAdvisor as one of the top 10 most romantic resorts in the world and has a longstanding commitment to providing an unmatched vacation experience for couples. Bucuti’s beach has been recognized for 20 years as one of the top 100 dream beaches of the world, and in 2009 the resort was included in Modern Bride’s list of the top 50 honeymoon destinations. Bucuti is also the recipient of the American Academy of Hospitality Sciences’ coveted Five Star Diamond Award for 2011. Additionally, the resort has been officially certified Green Globe 21 since 2000 and ISO 14001 since 2003, making one of the greenest resorts in the Caribbean.

    About Bucuti & Tara Beach Resorts: Bucuti & Tara Beach Resorts is Aruba’s premier boutique resort for couples. The award winning, owner managed resort caters to adults only and has been named one of the world’s most romantic resorts by TripAdvisor. Located on the white-powder sands of Eagle Beach, designated as one of the “Dream Beaches of the World,” Bucuti offers 104 guestrooms, suites and penthouse suites; a freshwater infinity pool; and the Intermezzo Spa, among other amenities.
