Food And Dining

Food is one of the great pleasures of a luxury holiday here. Grand Case is famous for its restaurants, where French cooking meets Caribbean ingredients, while Marigot has excellent bakeries, cafés and places to enjoy a long lunch beside the marina.

On the Dutch side, you will find everything from smart waterfront dining to relaxed beach bars and international restaurants. Try fresh fish, grilled lobster or local specialities, then finish the evening with a cocktail as the lights come on around the bay.

Experiences To Enjoy

A private boat trip is a wonderful way to see the coastline and nearby islands. Spend the day swimming from the deck, snorkelling in calm bays or visiting Tintamarre and Pinel Island, where shallow turquoise water makes a perfect setting for an unhurried lunch.

Back on land, book a spa treatment, explore the colourful streets of Marigot or browse the shops in Philipsburg. The island is also ideal for sunset sailing, scenic drives and quiet mornings on beaches such as Orient Bay, Anse Marcel and Mullet Bay.
