Regardless, substitution of chicken wings for chicken breast without notifying the diner is absolutely a no no. I too am glad the OP mentioned that service was good. I too would give them a second try. Cheers irina

B I think Fabulous Feasts does things like that. Why don't you call them or the wedding planner you know, Joyce? Maybe Dino would cater? Sounds great. i

Hebrew National products sold a the grocery by Maho. Also Clausen's pickles are on island. I think the bagel place in Simpson Bay by the bridge is halal, if that helps! Cheers irina

I too recommend Le Sucriere next to Simpson Bay Yacht Club. Cakes there are much better than Supermarket bakery. Cheers irina

I rode in the big Sikorsky "Jolly Green Giants" and I have never gotten on one of these tourist helicopters. No way. Not in NYC, not in Hawaii and not in Sint Maarten. Cheers, I think. irina

Kendall, I have a grip. When you type in all caps that is yelling in cyberspace. Plain and simple. New visitors to SXM would get confused looking for PP across from Topper's. irina
Forum: The Friendly St.Martin Island Forum

Kendall, Please stop yelling. And Pineapple Pete's is not "just about across" the street from Toppers. Across the street from Toppers is Lee's and the Boathouse, etc. Pineapple Pete's is across the street from the casino and the movie theatre. Cheers irina

Pat, AA is a totally arrogant corporate entity. They do not care about us or their staff. I for one go to great lenghts to get where I need to be WITHOUT flying AA. Remember when I came home to SXM from back surgery and the attendant refused me a wheelchair? Said I didn't need it, plus I had a Dr. note. Yuck irina

Wow! They painted 7 Alive? LOL Did they fix the potholes in front? My friends in SXM dump a bag of self leveling cement in the holes and pour water in it. Works every time! cheers irina

I love the location and feel of the Cliffhanger but in all the years that we stopped by, it was either empty or the service was terrible. Shame. irina

Where did it mention $450/night hotel rate for SXM? Irina

TropicGirl, Where are you shipping from? Tropical Shipping had a very good rate for shipping from West Palm Beach to SXM. Plus they let you put a few small things in the car. Inspection is pretty easy. The dealer down there does NOT help you with it. (Sorry Dennis). We purchased a new car there at Marshall Motors. Our car could not be bought to the US because it did not meet emmission s

Yes Barbara, I have heard of this. Basically Kontiki or whoever/whichever bar sets up 2 loungers w/umbrella every 10 feet or so. They do this in rows in front of the establishment and will harass you if you want to sit on the sand or on your own beach chair. Since they basically take all the space on the beach, then there is no place where one can be without being harassed. I've had h
