This was our 3rd trip to SXM,we have always stayed at the Sonesta Maho (cheaper going AI from Toronto)We took a taxi which cost $15 for 3 of us rather than waiting for the bus. As it turned out we got an upgrade on our room because we were first to arrive.
Saturday - We stayed around resort and took advantage of AI cocktails. Throughout the week they closed one of the restaurants for dinner and closed the buffet at lunch because it was so slow.
Sunday - Mullet beach is one of our favs and it did not disapoint, the water was great for swimming and it was very busy. Sopranos for dinner was very good (was inc in AI)
Monday - Into town for a visit to DK Gems, Jeff as always looked after us and stated that business was very good. Taloula Mangos for lunch.
Tuesday - Anguilla for the day. The first ferry leaves at 8:15 we took the 9 instead. $5 Tax, $30 for the ferry return and another $5 tax to leave the island. Taxi to Shoal Bay East was $62 return and that did not include tip. Lunch at Uncle Ernies was average, but nothing about our day there could have been better. This was our second time there and with chairs, umbrella, food drink, transportation it averages $100 per person and is well worth it.
Wednesday - Another great day at Mullet and dinner at Paris Bistro was very good (was inc in AI)Drinks at Sopranos piano bar with Jeff Abott entertaining was good fun in the evening
Thursday - Karacter at Simpson Bay was good, the water made for fun swimming. We ended up ordering drinks only but that was all that was required for free chairs and umbrellas.The 6 beer for $12 is a daily beer special and a frozen drink was $6
We enjoyed our stay as always. The staff at the Sonesta were great as were all the people we ran into on the Island. At no time did we feel unsafe. Happy Travels Jackie and Herb
