We have brought many a group to SXM, and on the list of all is always a trip to P-Burg, and I get bored with it so quickly. I have learned the trick of always stopping at Holland House for a quick beverage with the group, and before we leave, I tell everyone to meet back in 2.5 hours at this same Holland House for another after shopping cocktail. I am usually back at the Holland House within an hour. I used to love the ladybird cocktail there, but of late, no one knows what I mean by that anymore. The group tends to saunter in within the two to three hours of shopping. Jewelry, trinkets, and liquor purchases are what they are buying. And some expensive Robert Graham shirts by the one sharp dresser in our group.

Same thing with the Sunset Bar, I would rather spend my money elsewhere, but that is what the group always wants to do. They do have good apple pancakes there at the Sunset Bar if you want breakfast there, preferably before all the cruise ship people come in. And maybe stop in later so they can take pictures of the bigger planes coming in.
