  Celebrating 40 at Secrets Baby Beach and It Completely Stole My Heart

  I came here to celebrate my 40th birthday, and this trip was amazing from the moment we arrived. The entire resort has such a calm and peaceful atmosphere. Everything was extremely clean, modern and beautifully maintained. I also loved that it is in a quieter part of Aruba, away from traffic and crowds, which made the whole stay even more relaxing. I booked the Preferred Club and I am really glad I did. We visited the Preferred Club Lounge almost every night for a nightcap and the drinks and service were great. Juleane was my favorite bartender in the Preferred Club Lounge. She did such a great job crafting different cocktails and her energy made every visit enjoyable. The Preferred Club Bar and the Infinity Pool were also some of my favorite places to relax. The view of Baby Beach from the pool is beautiful and the swim up bar made everything even more convenient. I have to mention the staff because they truly made this trip special. Erwin, our butler, was genuinely the best I have ever had at any resort. He was kind, attentive and really helped make my birthday feel memorable. Sol helped me even before I arrived. She handled my upgrade and the birthday decorations in my room and made me feel welcomed from the start. The food at the resort was excellent. The Market Cafe buffet became my favorite spot because everything was fresh and flavorful. Tierra Restaurant was also a great dining experience. Our waitress, Shamila, was amazing and had wonderful menu suggestions. Hitmitsu was another highlight. Julio made the hibachi dinner entertaining from beginning to end. Coco Cafe was a place I visited several times. It stays open 24 hours and they had the best chai tea latte and delicious pastries. The drinks and entertainment throughout the resort were very good. Jean at the Prelude Bar made great drinks and kept everyone smiling. The entertainment exceeded my expectations. The violinist was incredible and played so many great songs. The live band did an excellent job keeping the crowd involved. Our room was spacious, spotless and felt brand new. The balcony overlooked the pools and Baby Beach and the view was beautiful both morning and night. Service across the entire resort was excellent. Everyone was friendly and helpful and we never waited long for anything. Even room service came quickly. Overall, I feel like I received great value for what I paid. Everything felt high quality and well worth it. This was one of the best birthday trips I have ever taken and I would absolutely come back.

  Bad service

  They have a lot of service kinks to work out . A lot of the workers are lazy and the non preferred pool service is not existent. You will need to walk to the bar for service. The coco cafe is not 24/7 and removes inventory at 10pm. Overall workers need to be trained better as they hang out, even when tipped regularly.

  Secrets Baby Beach--Awesome Experience!!!

  Secrets Baby Beach, although new and working out some kinks in check-in, was amazing for service. Never ran into one negative individual. Djanira was our agent and was so helpful. She gave us information that we wouldn't have known to ask for and continued until the moment we left the resort. For outstanding service, ask for her. She is the most genuine person I have met. Jimmy, our butler, also sent us information everyday on What's App. He let us know his hours of service each and everyday. He also gave us invaluable information about the National Park when we rented a jeep to tour it. He took away any anxiety we had about driving the off-road areas and also provided us with the much needed maps on my phone. Lus, in the Market Cafe, is the most wholesome and welcoming lady ever. She made us laugh every time we came to eat and her infectious laugh kept us coming back. She was professional, yet had the girl-next-door feeling. It is the only time I have ever hugged a front-desk restaurant person ever. I am really going to miss her upbeat personality each and every day. Secrets Baby Beach is by itself at the bottom end of Aruba but it is nice to be able to relax and enjoy the serenity it has to offer. If you want a lot of noise and night life, it is so easy to get into town. This resort offers shuttles into nearby San Nicolas for shopping and we easily rented a vehicle on the resort for driving around the rest of the island (only 26 miles). There are round-abouts instead of lights so if you are not able to navigate those, I would suggest you take a cab or bus. Also, ATV's are allowed on main roads as well as regular vehicles.

  Wonderful butler and beach

  Baby beach was very nice with it's sandy bottom and shallow and calm water. The color of the water was a beautiful turquoise, and there was no problem with seaweed. This was our first experience with a butler at a Secrets resort. The check-in process was much faster. Our butler, Jimmy, gave us a great tour of the resort and our room. Also, the preferred areas and services were very nice. The value of our butler became very apparent after I was injured from a fall on our tour of the island. I had a severely twisted ankle and a gash in the back of my head. Jimmy came to the hospital, and had a wheelchair waiting when we pulled up and he pushed me to our room. He also personally rented me an electric scooter and brought it to our room. This service went above and beyond anything we have had elsewhere. Almost everyone we encountered on the resort was very kind and helpful. Another shout out to Denise and Edward who were excellent servers.

  Paradise found- One Happy Island

  Just returned from an amazing holiday at Secrets Baby Beach. This is a new addition to the Secrets chain - everything is new and clean and beautiful. Rooms are amazing, pools are incredible, the food delicious, the service is fantastic. The staff are so accommodating and friendly. I really had no complaints about the property - only ideas to enhance the customer experience. Currently there are only 5 options for dinner- the Oceanic (seafood) the Portofino (Italian) the Tierra ( steak house with South American flavours) the Hibitsu ( Asian) this restaurant to me counts as two spots to eat as you can experience the grill ( reservation required) or order off menu. I’m sure the property will another restaurant with time and hopefully do some fun outdoor BBQ buffets. There is a daily lunch BBQ with burgers and hotdogs and fries available. It would be fun to enhance this feature with more additional items maybe featuring the culinary flavours of the island. My only issue with the room was that the outdoor chairs needed a cushion. I felt that the Sports Bar was lacking- it really needed more TV screens that played multiple sports games. Preferred Club- we were in the preferred club and I found that if I asked for a certain brand - I would get it after the staff verified my room. The lounge was enjoyed every night. Julianne and Chanel looked after us. The beach is beautiful- crystal clear water. The only issue I had was that no one picked up their garbage. The beaches are public- but why can’t people find a garbage can. This was a huge downside to the holiday- not Secrets problem but an Island problem. My husband and I actually picked up bags and used drink containers and threw them out on our way back to the resort.
