A New Secrets All-Inclusive Is Coming to Aruba Next Year

By: Caribbean Journal Staff - June 20, 2024

The long-awaited debut of Secrets’ first Dutch Caribbean resort is planned for next year, Caribbean Journal has confirmed.

The new Secrets Bay Beach Aruba, which has been in development for years, is expected to open in 2025, according to parent company Hyatt Hotels Corporation.

The hotel is expected to be a major boon for the Baby Beach area and the nearby town of San Nicolas, the island’s up-and-coming cultural hotspot.

The adults-only hotel will be part of a growing Dutch Caribbean portfolio for Hyatt’s Inclusive Collection, which has heretofore been concentrated on the island of Curacao with hotels like the Dreams, Sunscape and Zoetry in Curacao.
