About One Happy Palapa

One Happy Palapa is a small booking service for shade at Arashi Beach, Aruba. We do one thing: you book a big umbrella and two beach chairs online, and they are set up on the sand and held under your name from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM.

Who sets up your umbrella

You book with One Happy Palapa, and our local beach partners set up your umbrella and chairs at Arashi Beach and look after them on the day. Our beach partners have 10+ years setting up umbrellas on the beach.

How booking works

1. Pick your dates, your sets and any extra chairs on the booking page.
2. Book 24 hours or more before 9:00 AM on your first day and pay online by card. Your confirmation arrives right away, with a map to your exact spot.
3. For anything sooner, send a request. No payment is taken until we have checked your date.
4. For 5 or more sets in one booking, we confirm your sets after payment, then email your confirmation with the map.
5. On the day, show your confirmation to the beach attendant. Your set is yours until 5:00 PM.

What we do not do

• We don't rent palapas. We rent umbrella sets at Arashi Beach.
