Dine Around Program?????

Would appreciate any advise I can get. Have been to Aruba several times and never used the Dine Around. Going in a few weeks and am thinking about it???
Is it worth it. We love fine dining.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.

Thanks,
JoanneR

don't bother..you can just go out and enjoy the restaurants you want to eat at without all the hassle..not all restaurants are on the dine around and sometimes the ones that are on it don't offer all menu items..sometimes you have to pay a surcharge on certain items..i vote no on the dine around program..

Thumbs up

I agree with sagman17 - don't bother with the dine-around program.
We did it the first time we went to Aruba (post 9/11) but haven't used it since. We occasionally get a breakfast program at whatever hotel we stay at, but eat all our other meals at a location of our choice. Also, we do not eat appetizer's or dessert's and I usually have only one glass of wine with dinner; so we actually spend less doing it our way.

These programs include in most cases five courses which we never eat and we have found over the years that the entrees we like have an added charge on them, so for twenty years, we eat what we want, where we want and it works out better for us.
