How to get there, and back? What time should I be there to insure a good chair? Any other thoughts or opinions?? TIA We were just there late April during our port stop. Go to the taxi stand. Purchase round trip tickets (they'll give you a wrist band) and direct you to ones going to Maho. Shared Taxi's usually hold about 8 people. We got to Maho about 11:00 easily got a table by the rail overlooking the beach and runway. Just after that it started filling up very fast. We've been to Maho several times and actually prefer Sunset Bar. They have a board that shows arrivals...luckily we saw 3 large planes and several small island hoppers. When you're ready to leave just go out front and you'll be directed into a shared taxi van again. We opt to be dropped off in town instead of back to the taxi stand. To get back to the ship use the water taxi at the end of the pier. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rare crewsweeper Posted June 22, 2022 #3 Share Posted June 22, 2022 For planes overhead, Sunset. For a bit more laid back, less crowded, better food (pizza and whole snapper), plane watching without direct overhead, Driftwood. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waterbabe40 Posted July 14, 2022 #4 Share Posted July 14, 2022 Be aware that if you go to Sunset, the chairs are being rented by some dubious actors. They told us $20 for the chairs and "I'll come by and give you a massage". They made it seem like it was included but at the end of the 15 minute foot massage, they wanted another $45 and were very insistent. I should have pushed the point because the women interrupted the service when they saw the "tax man" then returned when he was apparently gone. I have been to St. Martin/St. Maarten many times and never experienced such pushy locals. They practically dragged you into the shops downtown.
