Jai`s is for sale
SXMScubaman
Yesterday at 10:10 PM
I inquired about a restaurant for sale in St Maarten and got this response on Messenger.
"Thank you for your interest in the restaurant sale!
The restaurant is Jai’s, located in Simpson Bay. You can check out some photos and get a feel for the space on our website: https://www.jaiscontemporaryfusioncuisine.com/
We’d be happy to set up a time to talk in person and show you the restaurant. Please note that viewings are by appointment only, as we are open for service every day and cannot accommodate walk-ins.
Let me know what date and time works best for you, and we’ll make it happen!"

Info needed

Yesterday at 09:08 PM
Hi All,
I stay at Royal Islander and arriving end of July. We haven't been back to the island since the hurricane. Can you give me some ideas of where to rent a car for a few days and any good restaurants in that area. Not sure what is around after the hurricane. Is pay parking still available at the Sonesta hotel?
Thanks for any help!

2026 Trip
Friday, June 12 - Park, sleep & fly @ Sheraton 4 Points Miami Airport
Excellent choice. Easy to find. Lots of parking. I parked in view of a camera and the lobby. Nice bar & restaurant. A little $$ but good. Had dinner there. Great rooms, pretty pool. Did not use pool.
Saturday, June 13 – Flight to SXM
12:28 p.m. departure. We left the hotel @ 9 a.m. At check in by 9:30 a.m. About a 10-15 minute wait to check bags. Security took another 45 min. We were at our gate about 1 hour before boarding. No rush, no fuss. Immigration was a breeze. Computer did not like my photo. Took 3 tries. Attendant told me to belly up to the counter. Bingo. Lesley Bruce from Kenny’s car rental met us on arrival. EZ check in @ Royal Palm. They gave me exactly the room we wanted. 1st floor walkout to the pool. West wing so we were away from “Nowhere Special”. Supplies from Jeannie of Shop & Drop. Dinner @ Cabana the in-house restaurant. Mistake.
Sunday, June 14 – Nothing Day
Pool & sandwiches in the room for lunch. Relax. IZI for dinner. Not sure why folks don't like this place, We always have great service and the food is very good. As walk ins, we had 2 drinks @ the bar & were seated immediately after. Gambling @ Hollywood. No joy.
Monday, June 15 – Family arrives
Early pool stuff. Wife’s cousin & her husband arrive @ 5 p.m. Picked up a few things at Market Garde we forgot to order from Jeannie. I picked the family members up. A couple of cocktails after arrival @ Royal Palm and we walk over to Skipjack’s. Great meal!! Pretty good service as well. As walk-ins, we were seated in 15 minutes or so. Just long enough to get a drink at the bar.
Tuesday, June 16 – Pool Chillin’ Again
Each day so far has been really breezy. Even walking on the little beach here was to get sandblasted. Dinner was Sal ‘e Pepe. Wow! I had the traditional veal parmesan. Bone attached. Huge and excellent. Others had gnocci both Gorgonzola and Bolognese sauces. Our 4th person had a creamed pasta of some sort. Stellar meal and efficient service. The best service we have ever had there.
Wednesday, June 17 - Shopping
Arrived in Phillipsburg just before 9 a.m. Dropped the gang off at Kay’s Fine Jewelry and I parked the car in the municipal lot. The girl’s shopped & Phil and I just hung out. A short walk & more shopping brought us to Caribbean Blue for some rehydration. Off to Mark’s for lunch. Nothing special. Great sandwiches. Big portions. Pool and a nap for most. Catch 21 and a bit of slots @ dinner. Good meals and service.
Thursday, June 18 – Nada
Cancelled our beach day. Had planned to go to D’s but sandblasting was not favored by the group. Pool, sandwiches from the RP grocery. Roma for dinner. Great. Gambling @ Casino Royale. Made $200.
Friday, June 19 – Family Departs
Breakfast in the room. Off to the airport for their 12:30 flight. Back to the pool. Dinner @ Roma again. Gambling again. No joy. Home to pack.
Saturday, June 20 – Homeward
Up early. Breakfast at Cabana. OK. Gas the car @ Sol. Airport @ 11 30 for our 2:30 flight. No issues, no problems but the "B" gates suck. Food in the airport is still poor. Domino's is backed up for horrible pizza & sandwiches. We chose Wendy's. Worst burger ever. Back to Miami. Out of the airport in less than 45 minutes. Shuttle to hotel 15-20 minutes later. 3 hours later & we are home.
