   The atmosphere and service were top notch. The food was decent, slightly over done on the chicken meals we got. But still tasted okay. The drinks were somewhat a miss for us , but the service and views made up for it. Would be nice to have the beach right behind it not accessible to the public, however was not an issue. Would go back for the pretty sunset dinner and customer service.

   We dined here for dinner on 1/22/25 and it was nothing short of fabulous. You’re greeted upon check-in with a complimentary glass of sparkling wine, then seated on the beach just feet from the water. Our server Lili was super friendly and attentive. The corvina was excellent, as was the black fettuccine with octopus and shrimp. Come for the food, the ambiance is just a bonus. Highly recommended!

   We had dinner at Passion on the beach second time during our stay at La Cabana. Everything was just perfect - octopus appetiser, catch of the day with red snapper and lobster tail and coconut grouper, and of course the dessert - key lime pie! Nice table under umbrella next to the sea, quiet music and attentive waiter. Will definitely come again! Thank you!

   First time in Aruba and chose Passions yo eat dinner during sunset on the beach. Reservations at 6:30 just made it in time to catch some nice couple picks. Staff took them for us. Food was outstanding, had the coconut crusted grouper and hubby had surf and turf. Everything cooked perfect and hot and plenty of it, so couldn’t squeeze in dessert. Staff was super attentive and fast and friendly. Would highly, highly recommend. Pricing was reasonable too 👍

   One of the top dining experiences in my life. Sunset dinner on the beach in Aruba. Everything was perfect. Food all prepared flawlessly. Great wine. Very attentive crew of waitstaff. Our party of four enjoyed every moment. My baked grouper with jumbo shrimp over jasmine rice/grilled veggies (special of the night) was delicious. My wife's roasted pork with a tangy red wine reduction was tender and cooked nearly fall apart. Hot fresh baked rolls with our salads. Wine and water glasses always full. Well earned five star meal. We'll be back next time!

   We had delicious meals and friendly service! It was beautiful to eat on the beach and enjoy the ocean view. It started to rain but they quickly moved us to a covered area. It’s a wonderful place to celebrate a birthday! They made me a special drink just as I requested even though it was not on the menu.
