Actually it was more than I thought. I was full before the steak. 
 

When we did Chef's Table, I was the same way.  The portions might be small, but there are SO MANY of them!

Nothing I can think of to do there that’s better ant what I did today. I’m about to head back I think.

 

 

Did you do this as an excursion?

@Saint Greg.....glad you got to see the planes, it is something that is not available in many ports that's for sure.  Plus right on the water with bars as well.

 

We are water people so in St Maarten we have gone on private catamaran excursions that have been the BEST excursions ever, but only if you love jumping off a boat into the water and drinking and eating some yummy food.

 

That's the great thing about cruising something for everyone's tastes!

Cakes

 

 

Do they no longer cut and serve you slices of cake?  It looks like you serve cake squares to yourself now.

If I’m on a boat I want to stay in it.

I had heard it’s a 10 min walk to town and a $3 shuttle to maho. Otherwise a $20-30 taxi to maho.

 

I considered the water taxi to the shuttle. $7 round trip but the line was long.

 

 

[Saint Greg]

I saw another sign for the water shuttle the line looked much shorter but once you peek in the building it’s a long line in there as well.

Bit of an internet issue there. And enchanted princess sailed away.

As soon as I got out of the gate everyone hit me in the face trying to sell me excursions. I think on guy said $2 or 3 cab to town but at that point he could’ve offered me a free ride and I wouldn’t have taken it. But you may be able to get a better deal on cabs walking outside the port.

 

[Saint Greg]

Looks like the water shuttle comes in down there

[Saint Greg]

Walk wasn’t bad at all. I had heard the maho shuttles come every couple minutes but for me it was 15-20. I saw multiple Marigot, French Qtr, and others. So you can probably get just about anywhere you want by taking a 10 min walk or a $7 (round trip) water shuttle to town and catching the shuttles.

A couple older ladies came up and said

 

“Do you speak any English?”

A little

”Do you know how to get to the cruise ships?”

Go down by the flag poles, take a left, then right and follow the road back to the ships.

”You speak good English!”

oh thanks!

 

[Saint Greg]

This is where I caught the shuttle

 

 

[Saint Greg]

The security guard across the street yelled she has never seen it take this long as the shuttle finally pulled up. 

 

So this probably isn’t the norm. By now there were 5 of us going. It was indeed $3 per person.
 

 

[Saint Greg]

We made one stop at Bob’s deli, dropped a guy off and picked up a lady….passenger.

 

[Saint Greg]

Actually we made another stop at the land for sale sign to pickup a male passenger.
 

 

[Saint Greg]

We made one drop off at KFC

 

[Saint Greg]

We hit a little bit of a jam at the top of the hill but it was just a min or two before we were moving again
 

[Saint Greg]

I’m on the wrong side of the shuttle for pictures. You want to be on the left side going there. And the right side coming back.
