My husband and I had the pleasure of dining at Passions on the Beach during our August 2010 stay in Aruba. I had made reservations prior to going there because I had read great reviews about the restaurant. We were treated to having a beautiful table for two with our feet in the sand and watching the sun set on the beautiful waters. The waiters were so nice and took pictures of us (and the other customers!!!) whenever you asked. As an appetizer, my husband had the watermelon salad, which looked so pretty that you didn't even want to touch it. Glad we did because it was delicious. So was the creamy fish soup that I had. For the main course, I indulged in the Mahi Mahi which was fresh from the sea. My husband had a shrimp dish with mango sauce that he enjoyed. We truly had a spectacular and romantic experience. This restaurant was everything that I expected and will remain as one of my favorite memories of Aruba!

Dear Marc,



Linda and I could never thank you enough, yet again. You and your staff gave our son and daughter in law, Peter, Jr. and Alicia, wonderful memories of a very special evening at Passions in July. Everyone there made sure their dinner and entire evening was perfect. They can't stop talking about their enchanting, romantic evening. In fact, they haven't stopped thanking us yet either, for planning the night with your kind assistance.



We will all recommend Passions without any hesitation. In fact, we have already sent 5 couples to Passions, so that they might have the opportunity to enjoy the same memorable experience that we did. Every one of them also enjoyed their night and thanked us heartily for the recommendation. So, keep up the good work. You're surely doing something right. :)



Until the next time, our best to you and your entire staff, with gratitude, we remain.

What a fantastic experience we had dining at Passions! Everything was just perfect! Our waiter, Jean, was so professional and such a gentleman. My girlfriends and I were in Aruba for a girls week, and this was so enjoyable to sit on the beach, feet in the sand and be catered to. I would definitely come back to Passions on a return trip to Aruba!

Our dinner at Passions was our most enjoyable of our week-long stay in Aruba. Typically, restaurants with magnificent scenery rarely offer food that meets the atmosphere. Passions' food far exceeded my expectations, and our entire experience was outstanding. The staff was also very accommodating of our 3-year-old and 8-month-old children and made us all feel comfortable. I look forward to dining there again on our next trip.

Absoulutely perfect! This was our second trip to Aruba and first to Passions. Now, Passions will be on our must list every time! The food was delicious and the ambiance couldn't be any better. Thank you for a wonderful evening. My mom said it's definitely her new favorite place in Aruba and my niece loved the sparkling Birthday cheesecake surprise! What a special touch.

This is personally the most romantic dinner and restaurant my wife and I have ever enjoyed. The staff and food were incredible and I have actually tried to duplicate the Watermelon Salad recipe without much luck so far. This restaurant was recommend by a co-worker and I will (and have already) follow suit and recommend this restaurant to anyone I know that is going to visit Aruba.

We dined at Passions with our children. Their ages are 11,14, and 15. They loved their meals. They ordered grouper and filet mignon. My husband and I also ordered beef. Everything was cooked perfectly and tasted wonderful. While we were the only people dining with children, we did not feel uncomfortable and our children felt welcomed. The service was wonderful, the location was top-notch, and although the sun set behind a cloud, it was beautiful. Best meal we had in Aruba. Don't go to Flying Fishbone. Weird seasoning on food. Toilets are the cleanest, most upscale, port-o-potties I've ever seen.

By far this is the best restaurant we have eaten at in the 7 years we have been vacationing in Aruba. This is a must if you are taking a trip. We are now spoiled and no other "on the beach" restaurant will do. From the lighten menu's to the perfect service and delicious food it was a night to remember. We had first time visitors to Aruba with us and I am so glad this was the impression they took with them. We will be back!

My husband and I had a fantastic dinner at Passions. The setting could not have been prettier. It was fun to take off our shoes and enjoy a quiet, romantic dinner on the beach just steps away from the water. The service and food were excellent. We are looking forward to seeing you again on our next visit to Aruba!
