Top 5 / Caribbean

As one of the top honeymoon destinations in the world, you can bet St. Martin and St. Maarten have some of the finest restaurants in existence. Here are a few of our favorites.

 

Bistrot Caraibes

Bistrot Caraibes is the most highly-rated restaurant on the island for good reason. The views, like most places in St Martin, are absolutely stunning, and the food is no different. Do yourself a favor and try the lobster thermidor.

 

La Villa Restaurant

La Villa, located on Grand Case, is most notable for its friendly staff, but the food is pretty excellent too. It’s one of the best places on the island for French food and the atmosphere manages to be both relaxing and upscale at the same time.

 

Chez Leandra

For authentic Caribbean fare, look no further than Chez Leandra. This family-owned establishment is one of the hippest places on the islands with amazingly affordable, delicious food. The jerk chicken, in particular, is out of this world.

 

Saratoga

There’s no better place for a date night on St. Maarten than Saratoga. The American-style restaurant features a rotating menu of steak, lamb and pasta. The views overlooking the harbor are both romantic and breathtaking.

 

Little Jerusalem

Visitors flock to Little Jerusalem for the company of the affable owners and delectable food. This Mediterranean fusion restaurant seems to be little more than a hole in the wall, but it’s the best place to go for meeting friendly locals and escaping the couples that constantly flood the islands.

Interior Upgrades Begin Rolling Out Across United Fleet

United Airlines is in the midst of a major initiative to modernize its fleet over the next several years. After first announcing the plan in 2021, planes fitted with United’s signature interior are finally beginning to appear across the airline’s narrowbody fleet of Boeing and Airbus planes. United flyers are sure to notice these enhancements from the moment they step on board: Each new or updated plane sports remodeled seats, seatback entertainment screens for everyone, Bluetooth connectivity and more, all adding up to a better experience on every journey.
