That's OK, Carol. I was trying to figure it out as well, and my best guess was also that maybe it was some fancy new villa at the end of Beacon Hill, since we have been away for two years. I must admit to not having spent that much time observing the Sonesta Maho or the Ocean Point building, so now I know! LOL!!

SXMBND, thank you for the pictures of our home away from home. Wish I was there, spent 3 weeks in November there and missing it already. Always enjoyed burgers at BBB. Found The Sandbar burgers and food in general just average. So many places and not enough time!

Luda,
So glad we at least got to say hello in November and we agree - love BSV and in honesty, thought the service and food at The Sandbar was just average but we may have just hit a bad day.
Not much of a burger fan myself but we took friends and first time visitors to Mary’s Boon for lunch. They said they had the best burger ever there. Everyone’s experiences can differ along with their expectations. The setting at Sand Bar was so nice we really didn’t mind the slower than slow service and we’d probably still go back.
Respectfully,
pat

Hi Pat, It was nice chatting with you at BSV, wish we had a chance to socialize a bit more. May be this November we overlap again, we are booked for a last 3 weeks in November already. Kind of trying to figure out if I can squeeze a trip in the summer sometime also. And yes, the setting at Sandbar is very nice, but not crazy on their food.
Life is short, travel the World.

Beautiful shot! Last couple of times we have been on SXM, Saba has been pretty shy.

We had the same issues with lack of Saba sightings last trip. I think I’ve already reserved our spot on Bill and Elaine’s balcony for our next trip since they seem to get all the good stuff - multiple green flashes included!! 😉😉
