The Coral Strand cocktail is a tribute to a defining moment in Aruba’s tourism history. In December 1943, visionary businessman Ch. Neme opened the island’s very first seaside tourist hotel: the Coral Strand Hotel. Nestled just outside Oranjestad on the road to the airport, it quickly became a landmark of elegance, leisure, and forward-thinking hospitality.

​

Now known as the Talk of the Town Hotel, this iconic establishment still stands as a living testament to the Neme family's pioneering spirit. The Coral Strand cocktail honors that legacy with a vibrant yet refined blend. It captures the essence of Aruba’s golden age of travel and the dawn of its tourism industry. It is a toast to vision, tradition, and timeless charm.
