Waterproof Library

Even the best summer reads aren’t made for the sand — whether you are reading a hard copy or an e-book.

But the Hilton Aruba has you covered.

The beachfront Caribbean hotel has launched a new “waterproof library,” with a wide range of books available at the recently-renovated hotel’s outdoor tower hut.

Waterproof Library

The books will be rentable at the towel hut, which will soon be rebranded as the hotel’s “Activities Center,” with a library for both children and adults.

And yes, the books are completely waterproof, meaning they’re perfect for reading in the pool or the ocean.

It’s taking the concept of the “beach read” to a whole new level.
