Aruba 2004

A November 2004 trip to Aruba by escape4walls

Quote: Second trip. Best restaurant was Tango's--great tango dancers, best beef in the world. Did a pole dance on the banana bus and had a blast! Best dance club was Carlos & Charlie's--great, loud, hard dancing music, and locals are not afraid to have a good time with tourists.

Aruba 2004 Best of IgoUgo

Overview

Quote:
Tango's Restaurant, down by the high-rise hotels and across the street from Allegro, was wonderfully charming. My friend took a tango lesson from a very talented young couple, Carlos and Ariana. They will be competing internationally next summer in Buenos Aires. They personally saw to arranging a front-and-center table for us. The sales staff from Allegro, overseeing a birthday party, enjoyed appetizers and drinks with us. We were pleased when they joined us at our table and stayed to enjoy the show with us. Everyone was very accommodating, and I would highly recommend the Argentinean beef. It is the best! We went on the banana bus and were joined by three couples from La Cabana.

La Cabana Best of IgoUgo

Hotel

My friend's timeshare room apparently had been flooded during the two weeks of rain just before we got there. Quite a moldy/musty smell was eliminated with lots of scent sacks. The Pizza Shop was new since our last visit and was quite good. The masseuse, Patricia, was wonderful. I went twice. The Patio Bar was the best hangout, and lots of new friends were made.

Tango's Best of IgoUgo

Restaurant

Quote:
A very nice, cozy atmosphere. Tango dancers have three shows on the 3/4 hour, dancing to three songs each set. Very talented, personable, and accommodating. Argentinian beef is the specialty and well worth the few extra dollars. My filet mignon was exquisite. I have to say that Argentinian beef IS the best in the world. I have never been disappointed. Between the tango dancing, there was a gentleman singing out on the patio for those who chose to dine outside. He was very good and played to the audience, and they seemed to enjoy him very much. I give this wonderful establishment six stars. I was very impressed and will definitely go back when I return to Aruba.
