SUNSET CAFE UPDATE

The ever-popular Sunset Café at Grand Case Beach Club, (located on Petite Plage, one of Saint Martin’s most beautiful beaches), is under new management, as of June 1, 2019.

Long a favorite of hotel guests and well informed visitors and locals, the Café has one of the most coveted locations in the Caribbean. Unobstructed views of the beach, Creole Rock and Anguilla, make it a very special destination for imaginative breakfasts, lunches and dinners.

Always welcoming and casual, the menus range from light fare and snacks to full-on meals. Complete bar and beach service compliments the relaxed and friendly ambiance that the resort and restaurant are known for.
Marina Bernard and her brother, Johann LeJeune are the new operators, and have restaurants in their DNA! We look forward to working with them in new and imaginative ways, while continuing all that has made the Sunset Café as popular as it has always been. Both were brought up in Grand Case, where their parents owned La California in Grand Case Village, and Marina moved on to open KokoMarina in Orient Bay with her husband (Koko), as well as Palm Beach…very successfully until disaster struck and Irma demolished it in 2017. Johann has the popular Rancho Del Sol above Orient Beach, and both brother and sister are known by so many of our guests and staff, it is almost like coming home!

There will be some changes and renovations, though the immediate plans are to operate as we have been to September, since the resort re-opened in late 2018. A temporary kitchen has been putting out great, but simple offerings, and this will continue as we refurbish and upgrade the existing kitchen facilities, and we are hoping to have that completed around the end of November.

The high season will start with a fresh and new concept, with what we fully expect will be the best breakfast on the island and high standard with good value for every offering.

The outgoing operators, Alex and Chantal will be missed, and we all wish them nothing but the best in their future endeavors. We appreciate the 11 years that they have partnered with us, and look forward to the next decade...that starts on June 1 with Marina and Johann!

Welcome to Koko, Marina & Johann...as we look forward to a bright future!
