The place was disgusting, food was lousy, drinks are drinks, but there were a bunch of dirty stray dogs all around and in the place where the big TV is, fleas etc, cockroaches all over the condiment stand. If you are drunk you don't notice. more

Sunset Beach Bar is cool because you can watch the planes land RIGHT above your head. It is right at the end of the run way. Yes, people actually can get blown over by the big planes! The drinks are cheap in the evenings, usually there is a special drink for that night. The food is decent, nothing extraordinary, but... more

During the day this is a typical shack type restaurant. Don’t expect the food to be amazing. My mom did get sick one time eating here but the rest of the people we went with were fine. I think it just depends on what you order. The location is good for watching the planes land and the idiots who get... more

This establishment advertises locally that" TOPLESS WOMEN DRINK FREE" so if you plan to visit, you might want to do a fly by and make sure there is nothing that might offend you or things you may not be to excited about your kids seeing. generally the topless drinkers dont show until dark,but i have seen them at all hours... more

Go for the view. Avoid eating there. Both my kids got sick right after - I can't say it's from the food, but I would bet it is. The fries smelled like fish. Some beers are half the regular size. The service was atrocious; the only thing our waitress said was about the tip. The ketchup dispenser splashed my daughter... more

OK Simply put, this is the mecca of aviation photography. Bring your cameras and get a beer and burger as you'll have plenty to take pictures of and enjoy the beach. This place does get a bit crowded though after more and more planes land, go figure. The beach was great in March of 05, next time we stop by... more

This is a GREAT place to watch the sunset as planes land and take off a few hundred yards away. Make sure to bring cash because they don't take credit cards. I'd recommend the burgers, Johnny fries and rum punch. Another bonus is being able to watch football on the huge screens they put up at night. Nothing like being... more

St. Martin is a fantastic place where there is always something to do. Unique in the world for women though, is this place where you can watch jumbo international jets arrive and depart from only a few meters away, have free drinks served to you, while you enjoy the tropical breezes without being forced to wear a top! Imagine, no... more

We visited Sunset Beach Bar while our cruise ship was docked at St. Maarten. Overall, it was ok, but I was surprised by the following: 1. They do not take credit cards. If I had known that in advance, I would have brought more cash. Nobody seems to mention this, so I will! 2. Ordering food at lunchtime is not... more
