We had a great time at the beach. This location is away from the crowds. Hercules was attentive to our needs and made sure we were always comfortable and happy. If you want to be away from the crowds this is the location.

A relaxing day on a beautiful beach!
July 22, 2019
First note, we were in the off season (July). We were able to quickly find our tour bus, was taken to a dive shop where we were given 4 tickets for drinks and then walked to our beach. When we arrived at our spot, we were the ONLY ones on the beach! They didn't have any raggae music playing, but that was fine with us as it made a nice relaxing day at the beach! We did have a couple of local vendors try and sell us stuff why we lounged on the beach, but they were polite, took no as an answer and went about their way. Wife and I had a wonderful day relaxing and playing in the water. For drinks, they had small glasses of rum punch (which Im pretty sure had little to no rum actually in it) but, it was refreshing and then they had Coors. Having the beach to ourselves was so nice, the staff there were very nice and helpful. Would definitely recommend!

There were plenty of things for everyone to do. They had covered lounge chairs for us to lay on and stand up paddle boards and kayaks for everyone to use. You could also get Jet Skis for an additional fee. The staff were very helpful and food and drinks were available.

Nice trip
April 08, 2019
The beach was great. Be careful, the water gets deep QUICK! Free drinks were great, the waitresses from the local restaurant come right to your beach chair. The reggae is a low volume recording. And you'll get bugged ALOT by vendors, massagers & hair braiders. There are some local dogs who love to play and get petted.

We loved every minute of this excursion! Great Bay Beach was the prettiest beach I’ve ever seen and we practically had it all to ourselves. The people were so nice, rum punch was delicious and the water sports were fun. There are beach restaurants and shopping within a 1 minute walk. Ladies on the beach offer foot massages with Aloe Vera. It was heaven! It was a fabulous day and I highly recommend.

Beautiful beach!
February 11, 2019
This was a really great excursion if you just want to relax. Kayaking and paddle boarding is included so you can take these out into the water whenever you pleased. Definitely one of the most beautiful beaches I’ve ever seen. Really close to shops as well. The only reason I gave 4 stars instead of 5 was because there are constantly people coming up to you asking for you to buy their products. This was a bit annoying but they would eventually go away. Overall, definitely recommend.

review of rum and reggae
December 19, 2018
The service was excellent. Transport was prompt both ways. Very courteous people. The chairs and umbrellas were ready to occupy on arrival. Rum punch was pretty good. Our only negative was the music. We expected it to be live and it was just a recording. Beautiful beach and water though.

Dark Angel Magic!
April 02, 2018
This excursion was perfect, and perfectly priced. Dark Angel was a gentleman with an amazing ability to make you feel comfortable, welcome, and appreciated. His service was first class, he gave you options for lunch, no hard sells or pushiness whatsoever. The food was amazing!! For $16 you get a first class meal on the beach with silverware, no plastic utensils! (The only negative was the ladies asking if you want a massage, that was annoying as they lingered way too long). Still give this an A+++ rating, and highly recommend.

Perfect Day on the Beach
March 21, 2018
The group gave 100% to make this a great excursion. The Caribbean was 10 feet away from our beach chairs. Even though we were late for the initial bus, they picked us up at the port. Our host (Dark Angel) was a real angel. He sang for us because the speaker for the Reggae music was destroyed by the hurricane. He also went out of his way big time to get us what we wanted.

A great day at the beach
March 20, 2018
Although because of the hurricane there wasn't music, it was a wonderful day at the beach. Good drinks and the food available for purchase was out of this world! The fact that we could wander up and down the boardwalk and know our belongings were safe was a great relief. We would do it again in a heart beat.

Relaxing time
May 24, 2017
After a weather delay put our cruise ship in port later than planned, we caught a taxi to the beach area. We were set up with lounge chairs and an umbrella. We had our choice of rum punch, local beer, soda or water. The rum punch was quite good! The host also offered lunch (a separate price) which was also very filling. It was chicken or shrimp, fries,seasoned rice and salad. The time seemed to go fast and the next thing we knew we were in a jeep on our way back to the cruise ships!

Good Times
August 24, 2016
The Rum and Reggae Beach Break was a fairly good value. Be advised however, you'll get the Rum part, but there was no Reggae to be found. We did find beach front lounge chairs at a local St. Maartens beach close to shopping, bars, and watersports. You will get solicited for food, beverage, and souvenir purchases but the prices were very reasonable compared to Cruise line prices for the same stuff. Our host Bobbi was running in every direction and at times hard to find, but it did not detract from our fun. Family had a terrific time at a great beach, it was a wonderful day. Would absolutely do this again.

Lots of fun. The beach was beautiful. We had reserved chairs with umbrellas and a man that brought us drinks. We were a little confused at first because we were the only one on the excursion. It is basically someone that drives you to a nice pretty private beach and waits around to help you with whatever you need. The beach is also on a boardwalk with shops and many food places. My daughter and I had a great time.

We were very pleased with the level of organization. We were delivered to the water taxi and introduced to Frankie. Frankie was friendly, caring, and a hard worker. The experience out performed the expectation. It was a nice relaxing beach day for us - no stress, no hassles. Frankie made sure we had the beverages we wanted when we wanted them. There were restrooms close by and they were pretty clean and accessible.

Missed the Reggae
March 19, 2016
Since I have been to St. Maarten previously, I just wanted a relaxing day. This excursion was really more of a packaged convenience. It included a round trip ticket on the water taxi from the ship to the town of Phillipsburg, a chaise lounge and umbrella at the beach, and two drinks. I expected reggae music, but there wasn't any. I could have put this together on my own, but it was a nice convenience to have it done for me. The beach is literally right at the town, so it was nice to be able to go to lunch and do a little shopping.
