Happy SXM Day! 🎉🌴🇸🇽🇫🇷 On November 11, 1493, Chris

Happy SXM Day! 🎉🌴🇸🇽🇫🇷

On November 11, 1493, Christopher Columbus reached our island and named it after Saint Martin of Tours. What he didn’t know: the island already had a name. Soualiga, the “Land of Salt.” 🧂

More than 500 years later, we celebrate this day together all around the island: Dutch and French side, locals and visitors, old friends and new ones. 🤝

Since the Treaty of Concordia in 1648, St. Maarten / Saint-Martin has shown the world that sharing an island can be done with respect, openness and a lot of heart. Over 100 nationalities live here side by side. That’s the real magic of this place. ✨

Today is all about unity and friendship. So tell us: what makes this island feel like home to you? 👇

Happy SXM Day to everyone who lives here, visits here or carries St. Maarten in their heart! 🇸🇽🇫🇷

Some dinners are just meant to be. 🌙✨ Last night at L’Astrolabe at Esmeralda Hotel in Orient Bay: a candlelit table by the pool, a warm breeze, live music in the background and service that made us feel like the only guests there.

French cuisine, a romantic setting and that easy Caribbean rhythm. Date night in St. Maarten | Saint-Martin doesn’t get much better. 💙

🎶 Live music on Monday and Friday evenings (reserve your table, especially on Fridays!)

That moment the wheels touch down at Princess Juli

That moment the wheels touch down at Princess Juliana and you catch your first glimpse of that turquoise water through the window... 🛬

There’s nothing quite like it.

Your shoulders drop. You exhale. Something in you just... shifts.

Is it the light? The color of the water? The warmth that hits you the second those doors open?

We’ve landed here more times than we can count and that feeling never gets old. Not even a little bit.

Tell us in the comments – what’s YOUR first feeling when you land in SXM? 👇

7 days. 2 countries. One island that will ruin you for everywhere else. 🌴

A perfect week in St. Maarten | Sint Maarten looks nothing like a typical Caribbean vacation and that’s exactly the point.

Two sides, two cultures, 37 beaches, world-class food, and adventures that range from jet-blast thrills at Maho Beach to lazy lunches on the French side.

We put together the ultimate 7-Day St. Maarten Itinerary so you don’t have to figure it out alone.

One week on St. Maarten 🇸🇽 St. Martin 🇫🇷, and you

One week on St. Maarten 🇸🇽 St. Martin 🇫🇷, and you don’t want to spend half of it googling where to go?

We put together the week we’d plan for our own friends: French-side beaches on day one, Grand Case for snorkeling and dinner, a day trip across the water to Anguilla, plane landings at Maho and a sunset sail. Plus slow mornings, local markets and a few hideaways that don’t show up on every top-10 list.

Every restaurant in it is one we actually go to.

The 7-day itinerary is free. 🌴

Big news from one of our absolute favourite tables

Big news from one of our absolute favourite tables in Grand Case! 🌟🍽️

Le Pressoir just got even more exciting – and trust us, that’s saying something.

Two chefs. One kitchen. Pure magic.

Gabin brings the fire: a young, fearless talent trained alongside some of France’s finest, with a restless curiosity and the kind of creativity that makes every dish feel like a discovery. 🔥

Hubert brings the soul: a friend before anything else, whose experience, sharp instincts and quiet generosity shape a menu that feels both refined and deeply honest. 💙

Together they’re writing a new chapter for Le Pressoir: ambitious without losing the elegance, modern without forgetting what made this place special in the first place.

On the plate? Scallops, caviar, lobster, wild turbot, pigeon… ingredients treated with the precision and respect they deserve. Every bite balanced, every flavour intentional.

This is Grand Case at its very best. 🌴

10-10-10
Today is October 10th and on this day in the year 2010, the Netherland Antilles was dissolved and more autonomy and responsibilities were given to the local government of Sint Maarten 🇸🇽

Curaçao also became a constituent country within the Kingdom of the Netherlands on that same day! Curaçao and Sint Maarten became countries of their own within the Kingdom of the Netherlands, while Bonaire, Sint Eustatius, and Saba would become “Kingdom Islands.” Aruba separated from the Netherlands Antilles on 1 January 1986.

And our therapy sessions look like this:

🥗 Lunch at Le Carpaccio – where every plate is a work of art and the Grand Case airport view is basically free therapy on the side

🍽️ Dinner at Le Cottage in Grand Case – because the culinary capital of the Caribbean doesn’t disappoint. Ever.

☕ And those magical dinner at Le P’tit Bistro – the kind of dinner that makes you question why you ever lived anywhere else

Over 400 restaurants on an island smaller than most cities. French technique, Caribbean soul, and flavors that hit different when your toes were just in the sand. 🐚

Saint-Martin didn’t just cure our stress – it spoiled us for everywhere else. No apologies. 😉
