Don”t rush the magic… 🍽️🇫🇷 Dinner at Le Cottage to Don”t rush the magic… 🍽️🇫🇷
Dinner at Le Cottage tonight was simply perfection. We started with a stunning Duo of Sea Scallop & Shrimp Carpaccio 🦐 and a gorgeous Asparagus with Camembert & Bacon that had us speechless from the very first bite. 😍

Then came the mains: a delicate Salmon with lemon sauce and crab risotto 🐟🍋 and a beautiful Veal Chop with vegetables and mashed potatoes 🥩 that was cooked to absolute perfection.

And the service? Flawless, warm, and everything you’d hope for on a perfect Caribbean evening. 🥂🌴

Le Cottage is open this week and then they’ll be on their well-deserved vacation until September! So if you haven’t been yet, go NOW. You’ll thank us later. 🙌

We are celebrating a 1-year-anniversary! What a ye We are celebrating a 1-year-anniversary! What a year it’s been! We couldn’t be prouder to have Shana and Achille from @alohabeachbarsxm  in our Magic of the Caribbean family – and what a duo they are!

Both born and raised right here on Saint Martin, these two carry the island’s culinary legacy in their veins. Shana, daughter of the legendary Valou and Georges of La Belle Époque in Marigot. Achille, carrying the spirit of the beloved Le Plongeoir – another Marigot institution. Together? Pure magic. ✨

In just one year, they’ve brought fresh energy, authenticity, and so much heart to this iconic stretch of Orient Bay sand. And the legendary Sunday Tea Dance? Better than ever! 💃🕺

This is what we love about Saint Martin – passion, family, tradition, and the courage to write the next chapter with style and grace.

Here’s to Shana, Achille, and the next chapter of Aloha Beach Bar – more sunshine, more rhythm, and even more soul! 🥂🌅
