A RADIO
FOR THE PEOPLE
OUR STORY
Born from a passion for music, community, and island life — HOT 103.5 FM is Aruba's radio station built for the people, by the people.
HOW IT ALL BEGAN
At the end of 2023, Jonathan Lake was offered the opportunity to take over Radio 103.5 and become the owner of his own radio station. On January 3rd, 2024, he accepted the challenge to manage and lead his own emisora.
It wasn't the plan at that moment — but after careful thought, he realized this was his chance. A unique opportunity he couldn't let pass by.
"Mino ta bai keda sin tuma e oportunidad unico aki."
"I couldn't let such a unique opportunity pass me by."
— Jonathan Lake, Director
After working on the studio, HOT 103.5 FM officially launched on May 1st, 2024 — with a vision to bring back great vibes to radio. Joy, atmosphere, music of all genres, entertainment, giveaways, social events, and sports.
A different kind of radio. A radio for the people of our beautiful island, Aruba.
With a full DJ crew on air seven days a week, HOT 103.5 FM has quickly become the heartbeat of Aruba's airwaves — connecting communities, celebrating local talent, and bringing the island together through the power of music and radio.
Today, the station continues to grow — reaching more listeners, hosting more events, and living its mission every single day: to be a radio truly made for the people of dushi Aruba.
