Pirate themed beach bar on Orient Beach??

[Trish Traveler]

On our last visit to St. Martin in 2009 we visited a pirate themed beach bar on Orient Beach, south end, easy walking distance to club orient. It was very tropical with lots of palm trees for shade and little covered wooden booth areas in view of the ocean. There were several pirate statues on the property.

 

In researching for my current trip, I can't seem to find anything that looks like this. The only pirate bar that comes up in searches looks nothing like this.

I am wondering if it was damaged/destroyed by the 2014 hurricane.

Were many of the palm trees destroyed by that hurricane?

 

Anyway, looking for a nice beach bar for drinks only, with clean bathrooms and a casual atmosphere. Hoping for a little snorkeling from shore even though my research doesn't show anything too promising on Orient.

Any recommendations?
