SBH Insider
We just got home from a delightful week in SBH, and we learned several things. The SJU-SBH Tradewind transfer is definitely the way to go-excellent service. The new road signs were an unexpected treat. After numerous trips over the last 22 years I have learned the roads, warts and all, and no longer depend on maps or signs. But now there are logical, clear directions everywhere. As the Brits would say: "Well signposted". I learned that I will never again climb down to Colombier Beach from the lookout-too old, too steep! And L'Esprit is THE place for food, service and ambience.
I do have one gripe, perhaps also a function of birthday disease (age). Dining at Maya's is a special experience, on several levels. But the night we chose to eat there was apparently "kids eat free'" night. Two young couples brought their numerous, loud and obnoxious spawn with them, and they shared their boorish behavior with the whole restaurant. Running through the aisles, boisterous challenges to one another, interfering with the serving staff-and all unsupervised by the adoring parental elements.
The staff tried to calm them down-coloring books, etc., but the problem was the parents and their cavalier inattention. We too traveled with our young children years ago, but never let them get out of hand like this.
My proposal? Hold the parents financially responsible for the ruined dining experiences of those unfortunates who were compelled to watch and listen to this offensive display.
(I bet you thought I was going to ask that the little ones be placed on the menu)
