There seems to be a lot of interest in this. Has anyone used it and where?

Both their facebook page and website are very vague. I know Norm has mentioned the card several times, hopefully he can chime in about the use and value of it.

Looks like it is delivered to you once you reach the island.

It is a Magic of the Caribbean Card and Magic of the Caribbean is an island facebook group. I thought you had to be a member to purchase the card. It started as a dining group where you sign up and for $100 for the evening you are picked up , taken to a restaurant and delivered back to your resort. A nice evening with no driving involved so you are free to enjoy your drinks. The events are all advertised on facebook for each week and you book from there.

According to the response to my question on FB page, only the cardholder can get the discount. Each person needs their own card.

Looks like 10% off so if you plan to spend at least $300. you'd break even. Not many restaurant on this list.

Yes, the card is the Magic of the Caribbean card and not just the Caribbean card as many think. The Caribbean card died many years ago. This is totally new and started by the group members.

Probably 10% off the meal of the card holder only or 10% off the lowest price meal on the tab.

Would be nice to know before you get the card.

Post question on FB page. Only Simpson Bay restaurants are Pineapple Pete's,Toppers,and Beirut. I might go to one of these in 5 weeks. At this point I am going to pass on the card.

Don't forget Bavaria. We loved our meals there and the service is great.
