This Aruba Resort Has a New Pop-Up “Sun Club” on the Beach With a Live DJ and Rosé
There are beaches, and then there are beaches in Aruba. If you haven’t experienced it, you’re missing out on some of the most spectacular sugar-white sand and calm, brilliant turquoise water. It’s the kind of beach where you want to pull up a chair and an umbrella right into the ocean and spend the later afternoon sipping on your favorite drink.
Or you could just head to the new Sun Club, a pop-up bar at the Ritz-Carlton, Aruba that’s the coolest new watering hole on the island.
The formula is simple, as our sources tell us. Every day, three to five PM, a live DJ, and a special bottling of rosé from one of our favorite bubbly brands, Veuve Clicquot.

It’s all about that “golden hour flow,” as the resort describes it, with a cool, curated look that makes it feel like a barefoot-chic retreat, with bright yellow and white strips and a jet-set feel.
It’s “sunshine, bubbles and a one-of-a-kind experience.”
Sign us up.
