We got here before 6pm and got part of our order of 4 at 8:44 pm and it was not packed. It was a…read morelong time to even to take our order. No reservations required. The appetizers took an hour to come out and I have no idea what the cooks were doing. The food was cold and spoke to the chef and all he did was take off for the cheapest meal and which was cold also. If I could give a no star I would. Food was cold and tough. I spoke with the head chef Carlos not really wanting to appease to our experience. We didn't even get an apology for the long wait. This is my family's first and last time going there. Especially being on vacation. I highly doubt not recommend this place at all and it's highly disappointing due to the location of the place that set the ambiance off from what could've been a memorable moment.

Steal of a deal on the lobster thermidor!…read more Just a great spot on the bay in what I'd call a shopping plaza surrounded by other eateries. On the other side of the road from Cupe Coy (if you're not into bathing au naturale, beware!), this towards the rear of the complex towards the boat docks. The staff was laidback, friendly, and gregarious. When asked for a recommendation, our server was knowledgeable and perceptive. The apps were excellent. There was a decadent dip and plantain cups with different meats in them. Very good, great value. The mains (so, meo culpa here, I forgot what The Scientist had, I was busy with item number one, supra) are hearty portions priced well below other spots on the island. Never having had lobster thermidor before, it had to happen. It was spiny lobster, which was appreciated. The more firm/dense meat, along with the less sweet (neutral) flavor of the spiny lobster lent itself to the cream and shallots I tasted. If you're going for decadent without a hefty price tag, this is your spot.

We stayed here after 7 days sailing on a Catamaran. My friend has been to sxm many times and we…read morechose holland house based on recommendations from her jewelers who are located here. The food and amenities were great and walking up and down the boardwalk. As women traveling without male companions this felt like a safe choice. The service was great at the beach bar and restaurant but the service was lacking at front desk, during reservations, and the inside bar. Overall we'd stay again. This area of SXM is pretty low key at night. Great for shopping ,eating, and beach time.

The pro: Two of our meals were great. The drinks were delicious…read more Cons: Totally outweigh the pros. Unfortunately! The third meal - steak was undercooked. Took what seemed extra time to cook the same steak longer. Then comes to dessert- again 2/3 were great but the third person ordered a coffee and this came when we were done with the two other dessert dishes. Took very long. One person in the party forgot their phone. She went back and was treated so rudely. The person rolled her eyes and was very very reluctant to give back her phone. The unpleasant experience of this at a fine dining establishment between meal, dessert and treatment upon returning- really really disappointed!!!!! Sadly- we were excited to even try again but with staff grunting and rolling eyes. Nope! Not worth our $300 plus bill.
