The Hilton Aruba has named a new top chef.
The 355-room beachfront property has appointed Gerard Coste as its new executive chef.
Coste, who arrived in Aruba two decades ago from the South of France, has worked for a number of hotel brands including Westin and Wyndham, and had worked as director of food and beverage under the resort’s previous management.
“Chef Coste will be operating at the intersection of exceptional quality and extraordinary presentation,” said Olivier Maumaire, general manager of the Hilton Aruba “His broad culinary know-how will elevate our meticulously prepared dishes and deliver an even more exceptional experience for our guests.”
In the new role, Coste will oversee all culinary aspects of the property, from the Sunset Grille restaurant to Gilligan’s Beach Bar and Grill.
