Karibuni

Book chairs in advance! Great place to spend a day on the beach, especially when it’s windy and rainy on the big island. Perfect beach for little kids, especially in the area served by this restaurant. Excellent service! The restaurant has a unique Caribbean atmosphere with beautiful views. Great food choices and a kids' menu with ice cream. Fresh lobster of your choice. Highly recommend!

You can only get here by boat but it’s totally worth it if you have the time to spend the day there. There’s a ferry that runs every 30 minutes and the round trip price ($12) is very reasonable. Definitely get any of the fresh fish offerings. We got both the catch of the day and the tartare of the day. Everything was incredible, so fresh and perfectly cooked. The service was really good and the atmosphere was very rustic and charming. Highly recommend!

We spent a day on îlet Pinel and this place was a hidden paradise. We accessed the island by kayak for free. The service on the beach was 10/10. The drinks were strong and tasty. The food at the restaurant was simply excellent. The view in itself was the very best part. I recommand without hesiation.

Quite possibly my favorite place on planet earth. The food, the location, the people... Can't say enough about Pierre, Teddy, Vince... They make 2025 as good as our last visit in 2012. Try the ribs, it took 15 years to get back to some outstanding French BBQ.

One of the benefits of visiting St. Martin is an array of excellent beach bars and food. Karibuni on Ile Pinel is certainly one of them. Really good food and drink in an incomparable setting with amazingly friendly service.

Le hôtesse Emy was super accommodating and got me a table quickly even sans réserve, on a super busy day, Boxing Day. Le patron Eric was also helpful adopting me in getting out of the sun and a beer fast. Then… there was my server Alice… what can I say… she was at my table before I could blink. My order… then it appeared. I did me part to assist in turning my table fast so they could serve a bigger group. Was amazing to see how well the staff worked together to provide amazing service on what must be one of their busiest days. All I can say is thank you! And Happy Boxing Day! Wishing you all a blessed 2025!

We stopped here for a lunch while visiting Pinel Island - we couldn't make a better choice. The view is amazing, the food is delicious and the service is friendly. We had a really great time here. Highly recommended!

Food was great Service was exceptional. Sat inside for lunch. 30min tropical shower came in and the staff kept things going with amazing energy while moving tables, chairs and people in out of the rain.
