If you’re searching for luxury dining in Aruba, you will find it at our very own, newly reimagined Elements Restaurant at Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort, a Forbes Travel Guide Recommended property. Known for bringing to life Element’s tagline, A View to Dine For, with breathtaking views of the wide-open stretch along Eagle Beach and eco-conscious fine dining, the resort begins the new year by unveiling a completely refreshed dining experience that touches all of your senses.
Designed by FG Stijl, a globally renowned interior architecture firm from The Netherlands, Elements offers a bespoke space that draws inspiration from Aruba’s natural landscapes and cultural heritage. From the vibrant color palette mirroring Aruba’s sunsets and ocean hues to furniture that envelopes you, every detail combines luxury and sustainability.
Elements’ new colors, textures and patterns also nod to Arikok National Park, celebrating the island's rich history and honoring the ancient petroglyphs of the Arawak Caiquetio people. Floor-to-ceiling windows let the natural beauty of Eagle Beach shine, filling the restaurant and creating an inviting and romantic atmosphere. Tables remain focused on providing an intimate atmosphere for the couples who swoon to the world’s most romantic resort for their honeymoons, milestone anniversaries, or “just because.”
Whether you're visiting Aruba for the first time or returning, Elements provides a perfect blend of laidback luxury, eco-conscious comfort and a culinary journey created by a highly talented, award-winning team.
Elements’ all-new menus reflect our longstanding commitment to sustainability and innovation. Curated by Executive Chef Federico Marin and Director of Food & Beverage Nicolas Nemalceff, the Mediterranean-inspired dishes complete with Aruban and Caribbean flair, highlight locally sourced ingredients, a feat in Aruba’s arid environment.
Must-try dishes include:
Golden-seared Bucuti Funchi – a tribute to local flavors
Tropical Corvina – paired with a refreshing mango vinaigrette
Siciliana Pizza – featuring locally made burrata and prosciutto
Linguini Al Nero – a rich, flavorful creation with jumbo shrimp
Save room for dessert and indulge in the Passionfruit Pavlova, the Carrot Cake (with vegan ice cream), or the heavenly Baklava Croissant.
With vegan, vegetarian, and gluten-free options, each menu ensures every diner can enjoy the finest in sustainable cuisine. Elements is proud to source local and organic products where possible. Meals are prepared in a fossil fuel-free kitchen powered by renewables. Guests enjoy sensibly sized, also known as European-style dishes, that we call Healthy Portions. With a zero food waste to landfill approach, guests leave feeling even better knowing that their special dining experience is fulfilling to them as it is to Mother Nature.
Recognized as the world’s most romantic resort, couples adore the dedicated, adults-only setting. Honeymooners begin their lives together. Babymooners savor precious moments as a two-some. Anniversary goers reflect. In addition to Elements’ sole focus on welcoming couples and providing discreet, highly personalized service, our signature Romantic Beach Dining is also a pinnacle private dining experience. Highly limited with only sunset and moonlight seatings, a couple tucks into their own private beachfront cabana where their dedicated server delivers a multicourse meal. Tip: This is one of the dreamiest settings for proposals! Ask your romance concierge to help you plan one of life’s most exhilarating moments suited completely to you and your loved one.
Beyond dining, Bucuti & Tara recently debuted our renovated Tara Lounge, a breezy peaceful space for breakfast that includes a guest-curated library. The resort also launched a new nature-immersed yoga deck, expanding our award-winning wellness offerings.
As the Caribbean’s first and only certified carbon-neutral hotel and a frequent recipient of accolades including Tripadvisor’s Top 25 Hotels in the World, Bucuti & Tara continues to set the standard for sustainable luxury travel.
