Tropical Tidbits<br />

by Sue C Travel<br />

New in Aruba<br />

On the heels of my latest in-depth research<br />

trip to find all new and cool on One Happy<br />

Island, there are a few stand out spots and<br />

trends I must highlight.<br />

Over the top overwater luxury<br />

First (pictured above) is Potcho Potcho, the<br />

latest luxe incarnation of overwater bungalow<br />

at the beautiful boutique resort Aruba<br />

Ocean Villas. Each year I return there to<br />

find even more splendor to admire. This<br />

time, a new reception and lobby/ tiki hut<br />

bar, canals throughout new bamboo cabins<br />

surrounded with blooms, and long boardwalks<br />

out to the latest villas. We had the<br />

opportunity to stay in the newest one that<br />

offers a level of luxury unheard of on this<br />

island. It is a two-story penthouse – one full<br />

top floor for the indoor bedroom, bathroom,<br />

deep soaking tub, dining nook hammock,<br />

hammock swing plus a personal<br />

massage table (you can order treatments)<br />

and it looks down onto a huge deck. That<br />

deck contains its own tiki bar, dipping pool,<br />

marble soaking tub, rocker lounges, outdoor<br />

bed, hammock, bathroom and shower,<br />

an outdoor dining area, a wine bar, and<br />

a cut-out access right into the sea where a<br />

clear kayak and paddleboard await for<br />

your individual use. Inside, on the ground<br />

floor, you’ll find a formal dining area, kitchenette,<br />

and a stunning lounge with a transparent<br />

floor that looks down into the sea.<br />

Breakfast is included. Also included is a<br />

driver who will chauffeur you around in a<br />

BMW. Note: this is an adults-only resort.<br />

New foodie trends<br />

Aruba’s food scene is a vibrant mix of over<br />

400 hundred restaurants and our recent<br />

foodie explorations proved that creative<br />

plant-based offerings are trending and<br />

plentiful everywhere there now, too. In fact,<br />
