Tulip restaurant set the stage for the IFA annual holiday party in the garden, with a special seating area under a white tent. Dressed in their holiday finest, members of the International Friends of Aruba enjoyed a welcome champagne cocktail followed by more cocktails from the open bar and a buffet of festive salads and holiday treats.
Tulip, located on Eagle Beach was picked by outgoing President Clel Douglas, for its casual and friendly ambiance, and efficient service, with a Dutch accent.
Clel thanked her friends for their support of her presidency as she introduced the new board with Clare Barrow at the helm.
