At our hotel, Bucuti & Tara Beach Resorts, Happy Hour is twice a day – 4:00-6:00 and again from 9:00-10:00. Just another thing we enjoyed at this wonderful place in Aruba.
Snacks – chicken tenders with dip, chips and salsa, jalapeno poppers were among the choices featured during the 4:00-6:00 Happy Hour. Add the sun, moving ever lower in the sky and setting right around 6:30 each evening, gave us the most spectacular sunsets as the trade winds swirled around us. Add to that, our favorite bartenders and servers – Jessica, Geraldine, Greg to name a few, who knew Spence likes the Aruba-brewed, Balashi and I either the Prosecco or when they ran out one evening, that same pink champagne that we enjoyed at check in. Here’s a few of our Happy Hour and sunset photos over our nine days in paradise.
One of the comfy and attractive seating enclaves situated adjacent to the circular Sand Bar, not a bad seat at the bar or in these areas, while the Steel Drums were played for our entertainment.
Happy Hour indeed!
These birds were at the Sand Bar
This guy would scream “Whatz up???” over and over when the Steel Drum musician showed up to do a set during Happy Hour. Hilarious!
One night they had local artists as a special part of Happy Hour and I bought this sweet bracelet.
Spence returning from the Blue Umbrella smoking area on the beach. Not a bad view.
Just dropping down on the horizon…
Going down…
Sandpipers running along the water’s edge at sunset.
In anticipation for the 6:00 seating of the romantic dinner under the stars. 5 Courses and wine for two, these Tiki huts were draped each evening with a gauzy white fabric and candlelight was added to make this the most romantic experience in every way.
One of the couples, seated and enjoying the sunset!
Another night, lounging about with a Pina Colada
A Balashi for this guy! Looking relaxed and happy!
