Such a nice last evening at Maya's. It was a full house, it was nice to see so many familiar faces. Leon & wife, Dennis, Ellen, Rosemond,Amy ,Phil and some that I know that you may not. Even the manager of the Carl Gustaf had dinner with his family at Maya's last night. Both R & M acted as if it was a normal night. I could see the sadness in both their eyes. I was honored to be a part of their last night. a few pics to share, the food was amazing.Randy said someone would be coming to pick up the cats today. one was just a baby.

Thanks for the reporting of the last supper! Visits will never be quite the same without a dinner or two at Maya's. Fair winds and following seas to R & M!

Thanks for sharing the last supper details and pics from last night at Maya's. The end of an era. We will truly miss them and wish them good health and happiness always.

Definitely the end of an era, but as Stiles from WIMCO said last night, it's also the beginning of a new one!
For me, Maya's represents a very special time in Saint Barth, with many wonderful occasions there, and I need to thank them once again for their incredible generosity to the St Barth Film Festival since 1996...

Adding to sharing of the farewell evening at Maya’s, here are a few more pics:

My distinguished dinner companions (many stories told around the table as hours passed quickly)!



A delicious starter of Gratin de Langouste (kindly done for me by Maya without dairy)


Evening ambiance



End of a nearly-38 year run!

Agree- the last picture says it! What a gracious couple and staff; the warmth and welcoming; the view of the lit yachts twinkling in the night; Dora, the kitties; the special touches for a birthday or anniversary; the lit kitchen; the walk in with valet parking; the special little table before the entrance; Randy always presenting the menu himself and Maya greeting each table….
Farewell friends and thank you for giving us happiness for many years!

So glad we went on our last visit! Are they really getting on a boat and sailing away?

Maya & Randy are operating "To Go" 'til end of July. After that, it's unclear what the new owner will do.
