Ocean Lounge @ Holland House

Probably one of the best places to eat in St Maarten. Beautiful ocean view, great food. I had the grilled seafood platter as the main and the tuna as an appetizer. Both were delicious. The presentation was very nice. Highly recommended

Went here for lunch on a Monday afternoon. The restaurant has a great view of the beach and boardwalk. It has a very calm and welcoming ambiance with music that is not too loud. The waitstaff is incredibly friendly and hospitable. My date had the Ocean Lounge Salad which contained various proteins with a generous portion! She said it was tasty! I chose the Tuna Sandwich, one of my favorites - I highly recommend! For dessert my date chose the Chocolate Lava Cake. It had great flavor and reasonable portion to satisfy sweet tooth needs. Definitely returning !

The atmosphere is very nice compare to what you can find around. The tuna tataki was amazing. The service not so good. They got sparkling water instead of still water. They brought us the wrong dishes and remake our dishes making us wait long time and in the end the also rush us to pay and close. Be sure to be here not too late.

Food is outstanding, we have been here for a week and almost tried everything on the menu and have not been disappointed yet. Highly recommend this restaurant, some of the app recommendations would be the pork belly, shrimp, watermelon salad, some of the mains would be the grouper and the grilled chicken skillet. Also, while at the bar waiting, the tacos and nachos are fantastic.

Changing my review from 5/3 as now the prices are outrageous and my meal was ok. The sweet potato soup, and tuna tatake were great. My husband has a shellfish allergy and to swap out the shrimp for scallops they wanted to make it from 32 to 44 and it’s mainly pasta, so he went with the burger. The wine prices are outrageous coming from NY travelers. The French wine wasn’t bad but still we know restaurant owners in the island and ocean has just gotten out of control. My spinach ravioli was just ok, had just a mushroom gravy which was plain. Now the tips: service charge is for hotel staff NOT THE WAIT STAFF! Now you need to tip the wait staff on top. So if you buy a $200 bottle of wine you are not only being taxed but the service charge goes to the hotel staff when I’m not even staying there. Downloaded new photos 1 year ago Never a disappointment. High quality food and great atmosphere! From drinks to dessert you can’t go wrong. Prices are fair for the quality you are getting. Service is fantastic

You will not find more professional, caring, FRIENDLY, restaraunt staff on the Boardwalk. These folks are the very best! The food is consistently good, and it’s just a pleasure coming here. *They predominantly serve guests at the hotel, but if there’s room they will fit you in :-)

The food is exquisite. Complex in flavor profiles at every turn. The staff is friendly and very professional. My only complaint, and it is a big one, is the “the house” charges a 10% service fee for your food which is NOT a tip for the wait staff. So when i purchased an expensive bottle of wine with my meal (dinner was $145 for 2 but we bought a $279 bottle of wine) the restaurant charged us $42 for a service fee that had nothing to do with the waiter not service. Overall a great place but this practice has to end

Perfect location in the center of Philipsburg, and right in the beach. The lounge and restaurant areas are very nice, beautiful artworks all around not to mention the nice view. Our waitresses were very nice. The food was very tasty, we particularly loved the poke bowl with fried tofu. The menu is very European though, if you’re looking for Caribbean cuisine, this isn’t the place. I wish they’d include a few local dishes on their menu.
