Marley’s sits slightly elevated above the sand near the western end of the boardwalk, which buys you the view, and the staff will bring your order down to you if you would rather be in the sea than in a chair. People report drinks arriving while they were floating, which is either exceptional service or an efficient way to keep a tab open. Buckets of six beers run about fifteen dollars. The kitchen does empanadas, jerk quesadillas and mahi tacos, and there is usually a dog on the premises looking pleased with its circumstances. Nine to eight, seven days a week, which is longer than most of this strip manages. It carries the highest rating on the boardwalk and the regulars are loud about it.
There are more like it in the St. Martin and Sint Maarten guide.
