Coming soon… adult pool.

The Marriott Hotel in Aruba is building an adults only pool. This sign showed up on the promenade connecting the hotel with the Ocean Club.

Just in case you’re confused as to how to dress and enjoy this kind of thing, they also posted this photo.

Anyone who has the pleasure of staying at the Marriott, let me know how this project turns out so I can update the blog here at The Bent Page.

Another pool view…

I’ve posted several views from swimming pools here in Aruba. Our next one comes from the Divi All Inclusive in the low-rise hotel area. Take a look.

Not bad, eh? This is a great location to watch the inbound ships. They pass fairly close to the beach on their approach to Oranjestaad Harbor. Of course, you’re there with a cold beverage, maybe a good book and a snack, too. Either way, it’s hard to beat Aruba’s beachside pools.

Bon dia.

Closer Than You Think

If you’re staying at the Renaissance Hotel in Aruba, you’ll find a pool on what is the second floor. I posted about this location before, but couldn’t resist snapping another photo because there was a cruise ship just across the way. Take a look.

Imagine yourself sprawled on a lounger, drink in hand, a good book in the other hand, and this is your view. Quite nice. Then, when it gets a little too warm, you simply slip into the pool for a refreshing dip. Perhaps you hang out on the edge, watching the passengers come and go on the street below. Either way, it’s a comfortable spot, and much closer than you think.

Bon dia.

Christmas by the Pool, Aruba

The Radisson Hotel on Aruba’s Palm Beach set up a wonderful display of Christmas decorations. Most cheery were the ones at poolside.

Nothing like sitting the water, sipping a cold drink, taking in the sun, and marveling at the colored lights. Merry Christmas!
