Passions on the Beach

My wife and I enjoyed a very romantic and scenic dinner in Aruba at Passions. The setting, right on the beach, watching the sunset as we sipped wine and enjoyed appetizers, was perfect. Exactly how you'd expect a romantic dinner to be. I had the spicy shrimp, which were great, and my wife had coconut shrimp, which was also very good. Service was very friendly and attentive. This was one of our favorite meals of any trip to the island. As far as dining on the beach I would say this is better than Flying Fishbone.

We had a wonderful dining experience at Passions!!! The food was terrific as well as the wait staff. The music adds to the dining experience--we had a dance to one of our favorite songs.We look forward to dining with you on our next visit to Aruba.

I visited Passions Beach Bar & Restaurant during my stay on Aruba. It was a wonderful experience and a recommendation for everyone!

I went to Passions Restaurant twice while i was on Aruba. This is really a great restaurant! The staff is so friendly and the food looks and taste very good! The staff is willing to do a little extra for you and gives you the feeling that you are special! The ambiance of the restaurant is perfect! You are sitting on the beach watching the sun go down while you are enjoying that fantastic dinner! Thank you for this great experience and i will go back next time i am on Aruba!

PS. I didn't rate childrfriendly, because i don't have kids ;)

We went there for our 21st wedding anniversary and had one of the most romantic evenings of our lives. Everything was perfect from the weather to the sunset to the great staff to the excellent meal. If you are going to Aruba, don’t miss Passions. Next time we go we plan on going twice.

Wow! I've dined here many times in the past but it just keeps getting better and better! We had a table at the water's edge at sunset - watched the sun go down as we sipped on wine. The servers were constantly offering to take photos for us (very nice!) Had a wonderful garden salad and crab salad for appetizers, and the spicy shrimp and coconut shrimp for our entrees. Normally I would not order coconut shrimp since it's usually fried but at Passions they grill everything so it has alot more flavor. After dinner and dessert we sipped on a couple more glasses of wine and just enjoyed the evening without feeling rushed (service was perfect!) Also a nice touch is the live music - just enough to add to the ambiance and not be intrusive on your dinner. Great night!

We had our honneymoon @ Amsterdam Manor and have used this great opportunity 2 times to enjoy a perfect sunset dinner at the Passions! You fell like a king from the 1st moment. Wonderful location,an amazing customer service, nice background music and of course you can hear the waves breathing!!! My wife Jacqueline had 2 times a very dilicous fish (grouper and tuna) and i hade the special recomandations from a great waitress Nicole! caribean shrimps and lamb chops with shrimps! All meals are prepared with love and this is what you eat! We can realy highly recommend everybody who visit Aruba this restaurant! Do not miss a cocktail mixed by one of the best bartenders on Aruba - Diego! Special thanks to Nicole, Andrew and Diego from the Passions making our 2 dinners @ the beach restaurant such a great experience! We will come back as soon as possible to this ONE HAPPY ISLAND.
Thank you all @ Passions!!!

Passions was located right on the beach with a pretty good sized setup. Several large tables setup and many other tables setup for couples. The wait staff was very nice and attentive, the waitress was very willing to take our picture. We had a garden salad which was good. One of the meals was the catch of the day which was salmon, it was very good. The other meal was the Hot Shrimps which was very good also. We looked up at the stars with live piano playing in the background and waves crashing, it was very romantic. Had a great time and experience. We would definitely go again.

If you want special treatment for a special occasion this is the spot for you. Marc is great and was quick in responding to reservation via email and was true to his promise of having a special table for our anniversary. It is hard to visualize how this busy beach during the day becomes so lovely at sunset. Diane and the entire staff are wonderful. You get the feeling they are happy to be a part of your special evening and not just doing a job.The special surprise dessert was the best and I couldn't think of a better way to end the perfect dining experience

Paul Conner is a great singer and sang a special song for us. Our dance in the sand is a wonderful memory of our 30th anniversary.

There were other couples celebrating their anniversary but Mark and the staff made everyone feel the night was just for them! Thanks to all. Can't wait to return.

Marc does an excellent job serving the freshest seafood in a most delectable fashion. Diana and the staff go out of their way to ensure a memorable dinner. The beachfront location and sunsets make for a very romantic environment. Don't recommend bringing small children as it would ruin the ambiance. Don't rush through dinner, relax and enjoy the view!
