Boucharda.....have to agree. However, Porto Cupecoy has come on very strong, albeit obviously not as badly damaged due to Irma as other areas. But considering such a tourist area with all the hotels and accommodations in Maho, much is still lacking, but we also don't know the full story as in are the owners still waiting for insurance payouts hence empty stores or are the owners charging far too much in rent, etc, etc. Regardless, brick and mortar retail stores have been on the wane for some time now and its all restaurants, coffee bars etc yet someone could do very well there with a fairly decent upscale fashion/gift store with good quality merchandise as opposed to the usual. I also remember what it used to be. Mind you, don't we all.....I was hoping to post some video taken in December in Maho but this site doesn't accept video recordings. See if I can find a free place to store them and post a link here. Had one years ago and forgotten who or where it was. Age!!!
