There’s a new hotel coming to the Dutch Caribbean island of Aruba, and it will have something very rare in the Caribbean: overwater bungalows.

The 126-suite Zoëtry Isla di Oro will be one of the only resorts in the Caribbean with overwater suites.

The all-inclusive hotel will be located about 20 minutes from Aruba’s Reina Beatrix International Airport.

The resort will be the fourth Zoëtry-branded property in the Caribbean, joining resorts in Cancun, the Riviera Maya and Punta Cana.

The property is slated to debut in 2018, according to parent company AMResorts.
