We just stopped in St. Martin on a cruise last week and asked for a recommendation from a crew member on an excursion for a great local place to have a late lunch and drink. 'Get Wet' was the recommendation and it definitely pleased my husband & I! I had a delicious lightly fried (tempora-like) fish and veggie dish and... More

We visited twice within our two week stay in St. Maarten. Wish we could have gone everyday. Casual and great view of the bay. Had several appetizers but the soup was awesome. Loved the smoothies and the ribs. Very modestly priced and great customer service. Meet Toad if you have the chance, adorable dog. Movie night on Fridays!

It's a little place on the boardwalk that has immense charm, great staff ( Phill is a hoot) and amazing food. After over a year on the island, i honestly think the the GET WET burger is THE BEST burger on the island but that's just me..... come to think of it, you should go and try it. Tell Phill... More

Sat down for a quick snack, service was slow and unfriendly. Food was ok. While searching for money for the bill, I had left a dollar on the table and she reached over and took it! I guess she was tipping herself. Really!

We stumbled upon this place when looking for cheap frozen drinks along the hot beach. The bar owner, Phil, was the most interesting part of the experience. He's got great stories to tell, and is the type of person who can't walk 10 feet without saying hello to someone he knows. Laid-back, fun atmosphere where you can get to know... More

Food was ok for a bar, however the drinks and company were the best. We had 5 of us there just enjoying the view and drinking. The owner Phil came over to the table, joined us and we had a great time. We needed another round, and told us to get up and get it our selfs. Like it was... More

ran out of the meal we were after, added extra tax, expensive for what we got, even though bill was adjusted to reflect shortage of meal.

For a perfect experience, you need an exceptional stage and a wonderful cast of actors. We have visited with Phillip and Lynne on 3 cruises - the first time we ate and drank and I ended up working behind the bar for beer. We returned a year later, were greeted by name by Phillip and two people on barstools -... More
