Morning: Ease Into Island Time

Start with a light breakfast

Begin at Island Grind, the on-site café (open 6:30 a.m.–8:00 p.m.), for locally inspired bites and a well-made coffee before the day’s adventures.

Optional stretch or sweat

Prefer to energize? The fitness center is open 24/7. On select days, you can join the hotel’s complimentary morning yoga classes (twice weekly, 9:00–10:00 a.m.).

Pre-shop pool chill

Slide into vacation mode at the outdoor pool. Claim a lounger, grab complimentary pool towels, and settle in with a borrowed book from the on-site library. When the swim-up bar opens (11:00 a.m.–8:00 p.m.), toast to a no-car day in paradise. You’ll also find a separate poolside bar for easy refreshments.

Pro tip: Snap a few photos at the hotel’s colorful Instagram-friendly murals before you head out—then share the moment and tag @tryparuba.

Midday: Shop & Stroll to Paseo Herencia Shopping Mall

With the sun high and your energy up, it’s time to walk to Paseo Herencia Shopping Mall. The route is an easy, pleasant stroll from the hotel. If you prefer a lift, ask the concierge about the local shuttle service to nearby dining and entertainment areas.

At Paseo Herencia, take your time exploring shops and boutiques, then continue to Palm Beach Plaza if you want to expand your browsing. This is the beauty of TRYP’s location: you can follow your curiosity without committing to a car.

• Complimentary beach chairs, sun loungers, and cabanas
• Complimentary paddleboards for a little adventure on calm waters

Sunset & Evening: Dinner, Nightlife, and a Nightcap

Ease into the evening with dinner either nearby or on site. The on-site restaurant serves from 10:00 a.m. to 10:30 p.m., so you can plan a relaxed, unhurried meal. Want variety?
