If you’re stuck on where to go for your next holiday, then we may have just the suggestion for you.
Aruba is a tiny Dutch Caribbean island off the coast of Venezuela, with a dry, sunny climate and a gentle, lapping ocean.
It sounds perfect just like that to be honest, but there’s more – it’s the home to loads of cute as hell flamingos.
You’ll find the pink baes on the adult-only beach at the Renaissance Aruba Resort and Casino, which is situated on a private island just off the coast of the island’s capital, Oranjestad.
As expected, a stay at the Renaissance is pretty spenny (a room for two adults for tomorrow night costs $409 [£289]) but don’t worry, they let us povvos on the island too – you just need to buy a day pass. Which is also pretty expensive at $99 (£70) per person, but we guess you just have to weigh up how much your online flamingo validation is worth.

To get your butt onto that island as a non-guest, you need to contact Renaissance Aruba Resort and Casino when you get to Aruba and book your day pass.
The $99 pass gets you transportation to the island (boats leave every 15 minutes), lunch and a beach towel.
Can’t wait to see your pics.
No, really.
