I am guessing,but I would say it would be a 3-4 mile walk each way. It is over in Beacon Hill. Walking that in the SXM heat would be a great accomplishment, atleast for me anyway. We just flew home from the island two days ago.

Do they have a kitchen and the capacity to serve meals yet? It's a lovely stretch of beach, for sure. We found parking to be problematic when it was open as Tahoma - just not enough room on a busy day......and then they closed. As lovely as the location is, they really need food on location.... <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

We stopped by to look around. It would have been nice to stay, but we did want meals too. Yes they could get delivery from Piece of Cake, but we wanted more substance than that. And what if there's something wrong with your order, or you want something else....you wait all over again? We left, thinking we would grab sandwhiches at Zee Best bakery and go right back....but the car had a mind of it's own and kept going! Lol....right over the causeway to Grand Case. We ended up that day at Rainbow. It was the most perfect beach day with the right combination of food, drinks, and service. I wish Zafiro luck, and perhaps in October/November they will have their kitchen in order and be fully operational.

benni--what do you hear, about there being music there?? You are correct, no one in that area wants something like Karakter there. Too much noise, way too much traffic.

Even low volume bands in the evening are very intrusive, especially because of the base vibration. In June we went to Karakter and the music didn't seem loud there, but when we got 'home' to BSV, we could hear it quite plainly, even inside the villa with the a/c on. I shudder for that to be right next door. But the traffic and the commotion in that area, where there is almost no parking, is even more of a concern.
