I am not sure if this is an offshoot of Daleo's, the previously discussed SXM Crazy Beach Chairs or a totally new operation. The listing under "Services" sounds like the restroom/shower facilities that have been discussed here as well A pretty extensive menu is listed also. Daleo's and SXM Crazy Beach Chairs share the same listed phone number while Da Waterhole has a different number listed. Da Waterhole Facebook Page

We were there yesterday, though it was our first time at Mullet. There were two places renting chairs,as best as i could see. We rented from Rosies and ate there as well, burgers were fine , though it is definitely a shack. I did check out the restroom. You pay at the bar of the other place. The bar looked new, and fairly sturdy in contrast to Rosies. They had power and were making drinks with a blender. I think they had a separate small building that they used to cook food. The bar, restroom, and kitchen all seemed of similar construction. Btw, we went to Mullet based on reviews here. All i can say is wow. The water was beautiful blue, snorkeling was fine at end of the beach, and the waves were invigorating

So! I still can't help but wonder how these structures were allowed to be built on what is either island property or Ansary property.
It sounds as though the 'new place' is really a reincarnation of Daleo's? although that is purely an assumption on my part and perhaps an incorrect assumption at that. He had a long and on-going battle with Ansary over his right to be there in that location - sounds like maybe he won out in the end? And if so - good on him!! Restrooms and a real kitchen with running water sounds great but I still kind of like the idea of the ribs being cooked over the coals and under the trees - seems more islandy/beachy to me but will certainly check it all out and give it a try next time on island.
Respectfully,
pat

Do yourself a favor.....next time you go back to Rosies....get the RIBS!!! Rosie's ribs are THE BEST RIBS you will find at any beach bar anywhere!!! The ribs are her claim to fame!!!....and what keeps everyone going back for them year after year...after year....after year!!! Three and a half weeks to go, before i can finally get the first of my annual fix.

It's the old Daleos resurrected. They show a picture of the before and will give Rosies a run for it. Open till 7 too. If you’re able to keep your chairs after 4:00 which is about the time most places start picking them up, I might be tempted to try the new place. Although like Ed, it will be hard to walk by Rosie’s with the aroma of her BBQ Ribs filling the air.

KennDeb--thanks for the pictures! Did you eat there? I must admit that the expanded menu looks really great, versus the limited menu at Rosie's..

It looks like they are charging $4 for a beer... As far as I remember, Rosie’s price is $2. Rosie's was $3/beer last March and also Nov. I personally will still support Rosie's.

I think they put the chairs too close together and understand your concern. I would not care for that either.

Last year we went to Mullet, my all time favorite SXM beach, and based on that one experience I don’t know if I’ll ever go back. The chairs were so tight together that the umbrellas from each set-up were almost touching and there was virtually no room to pass through the set-ups to get back to Rosie’s or down to the water. It was a mess and a total turn off to me.

Rosie's Caribes are $3. Her hot dogs are $3. Daleos has to pay for the facilities and bar. Hes doing a pretty good business especially at the bar. I can see why. It looks to be a nice facility and I prefer that side of the beach.

As much as we love Rosie’s ribs and are in the habit of renting chairs from her since our Towers chairs are no more, next trip we’ll try chairs at Daleos and get our rib lunch at Rosies. The guys at Rosie’s are ridiculous in the way they set the chairs up so close to each other. There’s no such thing as a private conversation when your neighbor is all but sitting in your lap!

I questioned one worker about the way the loungers were set, he said he had no choice as the boss told him to do them in such a manner.

Early to mid-November is not really high season and it was a problem then.
