Aruba’s only hotel wine program invites hotel guests and island visitors alike to soak in the sunset with the company of carefully selected wine at on-property restaurants including Sunset Grill, a newly renovated, Mediterranean inspired dining destination, and Mira Solo Martini & Wine Bar, a modern, chic space overlooking cascading waterfalls open to the sun, stars, and cooling breezes with the sounds of live entertainment. Guests are invited to sit back and sip on a variety of Sunset Wine Flights, each featuring three selections that are sure to please the palate.
Currently featured Sunset Wine Flights include:
Chardonnay Three-Way
Iron Fist Wrapped in a Velvet Glove

The wine program will soon add additional flights to its portfolio including Bordeaux, Pinot Envy, A Taste of Burgundy, and Que Syrah Shiraz. Guests can experience Sunset Wine Flights, each featuring three samples, for $10 every evening at Sunset Grille and on Thursday evenings from 4:00 – 5:00 PM at Mira Solo Martini & Wine Bar. For those looking to extend their wine tasting, diners can purchase a bottle from the tasting to receive a $10 discount from the bottle price and find it waiting at their dinner table when they arrive.
