WHY IT RATES: The second phase of renovations at the resort will involve the transformation of beachfront space into a multi-level pool area.-Mia Taylor, TravelPulse Senior Writer.


Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort Spa and Casino, located on 12 acres of magnificent beachfront property on the world-renowned Palm Beach, announced it will undergo a renovation of beachfront space to introduce a beachside adults-only pool, expected for fall 2019.

The new recreation addition will complement the wealth of resort amenities already offered to guests, which include an 8,000-square-foot, multi-level pool complex complete with a three-story water slide, swim-up bar, and lush tropical surroundings.

"The transformation of our beachfront space into a spectacular, multi-level pool will provide a relaxing escape where guests can lounge the day away in a more tranquil setting," said Gabriel Castrillon, Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort Spa and Casino's newly appointed general manager. "This beautiful design will be completely unique to Hyatt Regency Aruba and elevate our continued commitment to delivering a seamless, unforgettable experience for every type of traveler."

Overseen by EDSA, the award-winning planning, landscape architecture, and urban design firm based in Fort Lauderdale, Fla., the project will completely remodel a 43,000-square-foot area of the resort's beachfront outdoor space.

Plans for the contemporary, tropical oasis include 10 private pool cabanas each with a private entrance and stairway into a sleek, tension edge pool designed to make guests feel as though they are floating on the water. Additional features will include outdoor showers, a beach hut that will house towels for guests, use of the resort's hallmark natural stone walls, and an outdoor space for weddings and events, fully equipped with audio-visual capabilities.

"Our vision for Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort Spa and Casino's new adult pool is to incorporate beautiful accent walls with stark stone, create a lush landscape, and add other unique water features to give the space a formal yet comfortable feel," said EDSA Principal Gregg Sutton. "The reimagined area will really wow guests, and further position the resort as a true destination with something for everyone."

The project is slated to begin in May 2019 and will follow on the heels of the resort's recently completed $21 million top-to-bottom enhancement of its 359 guestrooms, suites, and Regency Club Lounge.
