Simpson Bay Feature

This shot was taken from the Cakehouse Road shortcut from Philipsburg to Cole Bay. All of Cole Bay is in the foreground and Simpson Bay is on the left. Most photos will enlarge, if clicked. Use your back button to return.

This shot was taken from the same location, but zoomed in a bit on Simpson Bay. These people made this feature possible.

Simpson Bay has one of the longest beaches with the least development on the island. On the other side of this spit of land is the lagoon. In between is plenty of activity.

This Simpson Bay Lagoon panoramic watercolor print is one of the most popular prints on the island. Of course who hasn't been sitting in traffic looking at this magnificent view? Jill Alexander, a local artist, has created a series of prints called "Island Images". They are available at Greenwith Gallery, Philipsburg, Camaieu Gallery, Marigot, The Shipwreck Shops, or from the artist directly. Many original paintings are also available. Visit her website to see more.

The western edge of Simpson Bay is essentially Mullet to the north, Maho in the center, and Beacon Hill on the south. Mullet is still closed from Hurricane Luis in 95, but Maho is thriving, even building new hotel/timeshare rooms. Moreover, there are many restaurants and shops. Bamboo Bernies has moved into the second floor of Maho.

Paris Bistro is a corner of Paris in Maho featuring the seafood on an open air terrace. Nearby is Moulin Fou serving fine French cuisine with an extensive wine cellar. There are also three Italian restaurants (Romantica Ristorante, La Rosa Too, and Pizza Pasta) in the complex and Soprano's, a piano bar moving into food, mostly Italian. Bajatzu and Le Charolais are steak houses. In the back and only opening at 10 PM is the Platinum Room featuring the finest in SXM adult entertainment.

And that brings us to the new airport terminal, one of the largest and nicest in the Caribbean,

During the Simpson Bay contest (3 July to 13 August 2006) The Horny Toad Guesthouse offered seven low season nights for the price of five. Tom Van Veghel will be on this beach and take his own fabulous sunset photo.

Right next door is the Azure Guesthouse offering the same great sunset views and access to Simpson Bay Beach. A little further down the street is the Turquoise Shell Inn. It's across the street from the beach, but it has a pool. Their prize of seven nights for the price of five was won by Susan Price.

Close to the Dutch Bridge and right on the beach are La Siesta Residences, featuring one bedroom Sea Belle and the two bedroom Sea Place sharing this fabulous view and pool.

Unity Car Rental is giving $100 off their posted weekly rates to their contest winner. Debra Lindholm will be driving this hot Mustang convertible around Simpson Bay at a bargain rate because she won Unity's contest.
