DINING
In no paricular order:
LAVISTA @ Marriott , we ate here only because we had a ton of marriott food and beverage credits from the years playing at marriott casino. we ate there one night for the italian buffet which by the way was fabulous!

then, we went back the next night to the seafood buffet which was even more awesome.

italian consisted of...................everything imaginable. pasta, shrimp, beef, chicken, terrific salad fixins and tiramisu and other fancy desserts.

seafood night consisted of........................omg sushi and more sushi and it was delicious! grilled salmon, grilled grouper, grilled mahi mahi and grilled swordfish.
crab legs, shrimp cocktails etc......
i would not hesitate to go back!

PAM PAM this place is terrific too. all entrees are $9.50 and the visit aruba card also gives the diners the "pam pam cocktail" which is a fruity, rum and vodka killer! 2 thumbs up. We ate there 2x.

BUCCANEER my son's all time favorite is Buccaneer. We had a good dinner there.
Baked shrimp stuffed with crabmeat. We all ate the same entree and their $1 salads are worth $2.

MADAM JANETTE my husband's all time favorite. We ate here 2x. 1st time we all had grouper and it was deelish. (christmas eve) No room for dessert and the mosquitos were plentiful The 2nd time we ate at MJs was on the 30th of Dec. Mosquitos were still plentiful but we were well sprayed with off. That evening we all had lobster ravioli for appetizer and then each had a chicken cesar salad for our entrees.

Service both nights was top notch.
Food excellent.
