The Sunset Beach Bistro has multiple tables on the sand. That's not a big deal to us, but others may find that too crowded. Personal preference, I assume.

there's maybe 6 tables on the beach, but up on small wooden platforms, not crowded at all.

lisa
it almost seems like private dining there at the sunset bistro at phoenix
the set up is iindividual platforms giving much distance between diners.

paul and i have gone there 3 times
scenery and ambience excellent

all 3 times, the service and food were mediocre at best.

I agree with Andrea. Setting perfect, great drinks,service so-so, food fair at best. We have been 2x. Maybe 2 out of 4 is ok with you.............

We had a beautiful Sunset Dinner on the beach @ Moomba, very reasonable. It was not "private Dining", but no one within 10-15 feet of us on sand.

And the background music from Moomba was nice
Food was average, as was service, bill before drinks 25pp ?

But the view to die for. Whichever restaurant you pick,
make your reservations for 1 hr before sunset


It is between Holiday inn & the Mariott, on the beach, of course

fyi lou&nay, I was just poking around in that restaurant link you mentioned, and I noticed that there is a 15% off coupon for dinner at the Sunset Beach Bistro.

That's a $10 savings! Where did you see the coupon?

There is "15% OFF Dinner Bill (not valid in combination with other offers) at http://www.arubadiscountcoupons.com/discount_details.html?did=56. If you were considering their "Price Fixed Menu" http://www.sunsetbeachbistro.com/pdf/Dinner%20Menu.pdf (scroll towards bottom) I would inquire in advance as to whether or not the discount were applicable because it is a "special" menu and perhaps they consider that an "offer" already.
