with a first impression of the hotel. You never get a
second chance at a first impression, so it is important
to make the guest’s arrival as pleasant as possible.
That is, among others, the important task of a bellman.
At the Barceló Aruba two jubilee bellmen are saying
goodbye to the job they have loved for respectively
42 and 44 years.

Nick Rasmijn is working for Barceló 44 years, Ketty Lispi-
er completed 44 years. Long-term loyal Barceló guests
Dede and Ricky Grosser from Rochester, New York
would like to shine a spotlight on these two wonderful
men that day in, day out did their upmost to please
the guests. Their retirement should go with a recogni-
tion of their 40 plus loyal years to the Barceló Aruba,
is the opinion of the Grossers. Aruba Today couldn’t
agree more, so congratulations to Rasmijn and Lispier!
Enjoy your retirement after all these years of serving
our appreciated visitors. q
