Marigot 2026 TOWZERONE 6 hours ago Heading down for our anni in May this year
This will be our 8th time to the island and wanted to ask how has Marigot rebounded after the 2017 hurricane?
Our first trip there was 1999 and it was good back then with lots of stores open but I have heard thats not the case any longer
One of our favorite restaurants is there Le Tropicana
Last time we were there was in summer 2017 before Irma hit

Liquor Store selling cubed cocktail ice and Old Fashioned ingredients bmh3ss Yesterday at 09:54 PM Any recommendations for liquor store (Simpson Bay-Terres Basses area, ideally, but anywhere on the island is fine) that sell cubed cocktail ice, Agnastora bitters, Woodford Reserve (Double Oaked, ideally, but regular Woodford Reserve would work), Luxardo brand Maraschino Cheeries, and simple syrup (don't care as much about brand for the simple syrup)? This is for an extended family trip and I'm trying to assess how much to try to bring with me in checked bag vs. being able to purchase on-island to accomodate a special request! I've been to SXM 6 times but always stick to beer so never really paid close attention to what's available in the liquor stores.
Thanks in advance!

Best area to stay on Aruba? megamania Yesterday at 03:16 PM Hello there
I have never visited the island of Aruba......have always travelled to Sint Maartens instead.
The draw to sxm is food, and live entertainment, as well as beautiful beaches.
If I would like to travel to Aruba, what area do you experienced with Aruba, feel would be a similar fit?
Love beaches, love nightlife, and certainly, never do an All inclusive as I do not like them

Any tips, suggestions, etc would be greatly appreciated. Thanks in advance

Accommodations in Zermatt Husker Yesterday at 03:14 PM Planning a winter trip to Zermatt and looking for hotel recommendations. We aren't rich, but have a decent travel budget to work with. We were there on the cheap in our early 20s, before starting a family, and loved it. Now we are retired and have time to go back. I'm sure Zermatt has changed a lot in the last 40 years. Hoping it still has that same charm.

Bread pulled from sxm markets RonDon Yesterday at 01:02 PM I don't know how to post the article from Daily Herald.

It reads several brands of USA bread pulled from SXM markets due to weed killer contamination. Here in US it's Sara Lee, Dave's, Wonder Bread to name a few. So, just a head's up.

Dawn Beach Rum Punch 02/19/2026 06:26 PM Hello all,

Hope all is well. Have been coming to sxm for over 25 years but took a hiatus and just started again 2 years ago. My wife and I have explored the whole island again but have yet to hit the Dawn beach area again.

Is there a place to rent chairs there for the day where you can order/get served drinks and food like on Orient?

I sure do miss the Scavengers beach bar days long before the massive Marriot was built smile

Thank you

Boaty Ball question Rhyno 02/18/2026 11:54 PM Sorry if this has been asked and answered! We will be in the BVI in March. I bought the BB subscription for myself and one crew. Does the crew person get his own login credentials? If not how do we both try to reserve at the same time? We will be on the same boat of course!

Thanks in advance!
