“Great Latin Party at La Bamba”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 30, 2013

We went to LaBamba one evening while we were at St Maarten. We were told that they had a great Latin party on Tuesday nights, and it was sure true. We got there at 8PM and they were looking for people that wanted a latin dance lesson. For a mere $10 a person, we got a pretty lengthy lesson from a couple that were incredible dancers.

For the rest of the night, they played latin music, and the dance floor was full the whole time. The dance lesson taught us enough different moves for us to be able to spend the night on the dance floor. We look back at this as the most fun evening we had the whole time we were at St Maarten. Take it from this gringo - it's a great time.

“Lovely cove to chill out”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed January 18, 2013

Quiet, several places to get food and drinks right there. The cove is on the leeward side, and was shielded from the wind.
