We are planning on visiting SXM in November staying at the Orient Beach Hotel. Neither one of us is a a big eater, but we enjoy nice French food. We are hoping to enjoy the offerings of the restaurants in the Village. My question is … would be OK to order a couple of appetizers instead of the main entrees, thus leaving some room for dessert. Would this be frowned upon, or do people go that route?

Kevin--I have done that several times. We also sometimes share dishes, usually apps, but it's your meal. Order what you want. Looking back on it now, I don't understand how we used to get app, entre and dessert every night!!

Yes, just to add, we always order just apps or an app and entree to share. It never has been a problem. Enjoy!

Sometimes it's more fun to order more than a few apps!! The restaurants don't mind, at the end of the day. It's no less than a main course and drinks!!
Sand Gravity, got to love it!

All the food at Sublime is great but their apps and cocktails are incredibly delicious, particularly the Porn Star offerings. But WOW - they can sneak up on you…..😊😊

Didn’t we tell you soLesley? ! It’s J’s favorite, too. Personally speaking, I can never get beyond ordering the lobster tails which I usually don’t order in most places but theirs are sooooooo delicious I can’t resist but I do usually ask the lovely Lela how they’re sized as they sometimes run small for the price. Love this place and did long before it came to Maho.🙂🙂
