The hotel

The first St. Regis in Aruba.

The St. Regis opened on 22 January 2025 at the corner of Palm Beach, a new building designed by Hirsch Bender Associates. The lobby is open to the trade wind, with light wood and glass from floor to ceiling, and the upper floors look across Palm Beach, the Bubali wetlands and the Hooiberg, the hill in the middle of the island. Bathrooms are lined in honey-toned marble, with deep tubs.

There are 252 rooms, 52 of them suites, and the brand's butlers look after them. The pools step down in terraces towards the sand, one for adults only. The casino is the first to carry the St. Regis name, and every evening at the bar a bottle of champagne is opened with a sabre. Even the entry rooms measure about 46 square metres.

Akira Back on the roof The Michelin-starred chef's restaurant, Japanese cooking with Korean accents, steaks and sushi, and the sunset over Palm Beach.
The spa A thermal circuit, Sothys facials and body treatments made with Aruban aloe vera.
Terraced pools Pools stepping down to the beach, one for adults, with cabanas and a family area near the sand.
