Re: aruba question....

We went to aruba the beginning of OCt last year and figured we'd wait to get there to plan. DON'T DO IT!! Aruba has soo many cruises coming through the reservations for excursions, restaurants get filled up quick. DO IT IN ADVANCE!

We aren't the type of people who wanted to plan every minute of the day, but we wished we planned our excursions in advance. We could not do alot of things we wanted too because they were booked. Next time I go I am picking my fav things booking them, then playing the rest by ear.

We went to Aruba around that time. My wedding was 9/25. We made reservations the day of (while we were in ARuba). If you go to the Flying FIshbone, I would make a reservation the day you get there...

We went to Aruba for our HM in Sept and made most of our reservations before we left especially for very popular restuarants with specific seating.

We went to Aruba for our HM in Sept and made most of our reservations before we left especially for very popular restuarants with specific seating.

We went in November and early reservations were a necessity....make sure you tell everyone its your HM when you reserve - some will give you the best seat, free champagne, etc.

They have GREAT restaurants - in my opinon there's no need to ever in dinner in the hotel.

Our favs in order of our preference:

Madame Jeanette's
Mirandi (new)
El Gaucho
Flying Fishbone
