A match made in paradise
EAGLE BEACH, Aruba – April 23, 2025 – For the first time, Aruba will welcome a restaurant led by a Michelin-Starred Chef, right here at one of the world’s top hotels, Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort, Aruba. Opening in Summer 2025, Terra by Jeremy Fordwill introduce a bold new era of Caribbean dining. Led by the Top Chef winner and the visionary behind Miami’s Michelin Two-Star Stubborn Seed, Chef Ford is set to redefine what it means to dine in paradise.
Two Green Stars Unite to Create a New Culinary Constellation
Chef Jeremy Ford is not only celebrated for his bold, expressive cuisine but also for his unwavering commitment to sustainability. His Miami restaurant, Stubborn Seed, has been honored with both a Michelin Star for culinary excellence and a prestigious Green Star for sustainability, a distinction awarded to restaurants that demonstrate outstanding environmental practices, such as sourcing local ingredients, reducing waste, and promoting biodiversity.
Central to Ford’s sustainable approach is Ford’s Farm, a 5.5-acre organic farm in Homestead, Florida. This hands-on venture allows him to cultivate a variety of produce, from vibrant vegetables to aromatic herbs, ensuring a direct connection between the land and the plate. By integrating farm-grown ingredients into his menus, Chef Ford not only guarantees freshness but also embodies a commitment to environmental stewardship and innovation in the culinary world.
This deep-rooted dedication to sustainability and excellence makes the collaboration between Terra by Jeremy Ford and Bucuti & Tara Beach Resort, the Caribbean’s first and only certified carbon-neutral resort, and one of Tripadvisor’s Top 25 Best Hotels in the World, a true match in paradise. Together, they demonstrate that sustainability and luxury are not mutually exclusive, but rather enhance and elevate each other. Grounded in shared values, visionary thinking, and deep respect for the planet, this partnership represents the new standard of hospitality—one where exceptional experiences go hand in hand with meaningful environmental stewardship.
Refined Dining Grounded in Nature
Terra by Jeremy Ford will be an exclusive, intimate, and elevated fine dining restaurant, featuring a thoughtfully crafted menu of signature dishes, complemented by an optional chef’s tasting experience. Each dish will showcase innovative culinary techniques, striking presentations, and vibrant flavors inspired by the seasons.

With highly personalized service and meticulous attention to detail, Terra promises guests a sophisticated culinary journey where excellence and a genuine respect for nature seamlessly blend into an unforgettable dining experience.
Built with the Island, for the Island
What is most exciting is that Terra is not an imported concept—it’s a one-of-a-kind culinary vision being created with Aruba, for Aruba, through close partnerships with local chefs, farmers, and artisans. Chef Jeremy Ford is developing this restaurant in collaboration with local partners Maurice and Karim Neme, third-generation hospitality pioneers deeply embedded in Aruba’s tourism legacy. The Neme family’s longstanding contributions to the island’s hospitality and cultural landscape have been instrumental in shaping Aruba’s identity as a premier destination. Together, they are crafting a dining experience that not only showcases Ford’s Michelin-starred expertise but also genuinely celebrates the island’s flavors, culture, community, and environment. Terra will be a tribute to Aruba itself—a dining experience that elevates what is local and authentic while honoring the land and the people who make it possible.
