Are diamonds less expensive in Aruba?

Aruba’s turquoise waters and gentle breezes have long attracted travelers seeking more than sun and sand. The idea of selecting a diamond beneath Caribbean skies is undeniably alluring. Aruba, with its world-renowned beaches and vibrant luxury scene, has quietly become a destination for travelers who wonder: Are diamonds truly less expensive here — and why?

At Jewels in Paradise, we believe you deserve an honest answer — and an experience as luminous as the pieces you choose.

Is Jewelry Actually Less Expensive in Aruba?

The short answer: yes, often — and here’s why.

Key advantages for diamond buyers:

• No Sales Tax — Unlike many U.S. states, Aruba’s jewelry purchases are tax-free.
• Lower Import Duties — Many diamonds are sourced directly from trusted international cutting centers like Antwerp, minimizing fees.
• Duty-Free Designer Pieces — Shoppers enjoy exclusive pricing on world-renowned names like Roberto Coin, Rolex, Jacob & Co., and Pasquale Bruni.

These factors combine to make Aruba a rare destination for luxury jewelry at truly competitive value.

Is Buying Luxury Jewelry in Aruba Worth It?

For many travelers, it absolutely is.

What makes the difference isn’t only price — it’s the entire experience:

• Duty-Free Savings — Keep more value in your investment.
• Exclusive Designs — Limited-edition collections you won’t find just anywhere.
• Direct Sourcing — Diamonds cut in Antwerp, settings handcrafted in Vicenza.
• Personal Service — A boutique experience focused on you.

When you visit Jewels in Paradise, you step into an atmosphere of refined island sophistication — complete with certified appraisals, GIA-listed diamonds, and a U.S.-based service center for your peace of mind back home.

Is There True Value in Duty-Free Diamonds?

Absolutely. While global luxury brands maintain price consistency worldwide, Aruba’s duty-free status and direct sourcing networks create real savings.

Key value points:

• Competitive Diamond Pricing — Strong ties to Antwerp mean high-quality stones at fair market value.
• Fewer Middle Costs — Direct relationships with designers ensure authenticity and clear provenance.
• Special Promotions — Exclusive travel offers can add even more value to your purchase.
