Hyatt Aruba Resort celebrates its 25th anniversary with special promotions and community events

Hyatt Regency Aruba Resort Spa & Casino is turning 25 on October 23 and in honor of its silver anniversary, the resort is celebrating with an incredible promotion, the completion of an exciting guestroom refresh, and a year-long series of community service events centered on giving back to the island that has supported them for 25 years. The anniversary programming was created with Hyatt Regency Aruba’s associates in mind, of which 46 have worked at the resort since its inception, along with its time-honored guests as Hyatt Regency Aruba is proud to be the most revisited property in the Hyatt portfolio.

“This marks 25 years for Hyatt Regency Aruba and we’re excited to celebrate this momentous occasion with our associates and guests,” said Joel Bunde, Hyatt Regency Aruba’s General Manager. “We look forward to celebrating this feat with the great initiatives and programming we have in place this year.”

To kick off the silver anniversary, Aruba’s leading beachfront resort is inviting guests to experience its white sand beaches, turquoise Caribbean waters and award-winning amenities by extending a 25th anniversary-themed promotion. Whether visiting for the first time or the tenth, the resort is encouraging all guests to “Enjoy Something Extra, On Us.” With this deal, those who enjoy the resort for a minimum of five nights will receive a $250 resort credit to use towards Hyatt Regency Aruba’s luxurious ZoiA spa and multiple restaurants and bars, including Footprints where guests dine with their toes in the sand.

While on property, guests will also notice a refreshed look when they walk into their room with upgrades made to items from furnishings to linens. Having gone through an extensive renovation process last year, these soft goods upgrades in conjunction with the Hyatt Regency Aruba’s 25th anniversary mark the completion of an ongoing, multi-million dollar reinvestment into the resort.

Hyatt Regency Aruba also introduced a new, year-long series of charitable events called THRIVE. The monthly program is designed with the community’s well-being in mind and focuses on categories like children, senior citizens, people with special needs, and nature. In April, associates and guests had the opportunity to participate in the “Aruba Doet” – Aruba’s largest island-wide charitable initiative. Volunteers interacted with senior citizens from the St. Michael’s Paviljoen home while celebrating Aruba’s Flag Day. Additionally, on March 24, 27 and 31, fifth graders from the Scol Basico Washington school, the first school adopted by Hyatt Regency Aruba, were invited to experience Hyatt Career Day where they shadowed associates to learn more about the hospitality industry and the “Touch of Hyatt”.

“The Hyatt Regency Aruba family is excited to give back to the community that has welcomed them throughout their 25 years and we look forward to the upcoming events on our island,” said Vanessa Tromp of Human Resources. “We plan to have at least one community event each month in various parts of Aruba.”
