Got a call from one of Topper's best friends on the 14th and it was not opened but they were trying to restore it to the point where they could at least have hot dogs and hamburgers and open the bar. Telephone service is very erratic.

We have 2 timeshares there, Marriott Surf Club & Renaissance Ocean Suites. We traded something else for a 3rd week at Marriott Ocean Club. We usually eat in for breakfast & lunch and use the grills for some dinners at the Marriott properties since they have grills. Ling & Sons is the BEST grocery store we've found....good selection, custom meats & seafood. Some Fav restaurants are Driftwood (go fishing with them, too), West Deck, Barney's. La Vista had a great buffet. We've been to all the usual fancy restaurants....just too tired after a day in the sun.

Aruba is not really a c/o destination, which is what the original post was asking for..

No, but then we like to drink our own pours around the pool. Love the new Hopi Bon beer by Balashi!

We will be heading back to Desire Pearl in Mexico, as I don't think Club O will be ready for over night visitors until sometime in the 3rd quarter of 2018 - this will be our 6th visit to a Desire resort & we find the service to be top notch.
Gotta Caribbean soul I can barely control and some Texas hidden here in my heart...(J.B.)

Biturbo said: Thanks, David. I don't know when you're going, but it sounds as if you've been there before. Actually, its our first time there, and our first time in Curacao, for that matter, but I researched my butt off on some travel websites, and I got the info from some of the reviewers at those sites. Hope you have an awesome trip !!! We can't wait !!!
