Yoda Guy Movie Exhibit

Great place. The guys took the wives and we were all amazed with the exhibits, facts, knowledge and presentation of the whole place. Nick is a great guy that you could listen to for hours. Also the works of art he is still producing are fantastic. Will try and get back there on our cruise in 2026. We spent 2 hours in there and I still couldn't take it all in. Any movie fan from the 70' to 90's would love this place, but great for everyone.

It was such a great experience to see such amazing bits of movie history and hear bits of behind-the-scenes knowledge. Just being able to casually stroll in and meet Nick Maley, who is such a nice guy, made it hard for me to leave. This is a fantastic exhibit, and I hope everyone can get the chance to check out the Yoda Guy exhibit!

The museum alone is worth the price of entry. The collection of film memorabilia and personal touches is outstanding! The truly phenomenal part of this experience though is Nick himself who worked on the films and building all these unique pieces! I recommend this to everyone who comes through!

I went because my husband is a big starwars fan. Me not at all but i respect the series. The exhibit/museum was well done, lots of cool pieces from many movies and having Nick "yoda guy" there made it even better. Through his exhibits, pieces, videos and personally talking to him you learn so much and appreciate his art and the behind scenes so much more. I really liked the chat we had and all the inside stories he had. A great artist and person. This was a great spot to check out

Nick is such a great guy! My girl and I spent almost two hours wandering back and forth through the exhibits while Nick was working to produce even more amazing art pieces. Before I get back to him, the space is amazing. Did you know Patrick Steward was in a movie with space vampires, zombies, and boobs? Me either, but Nick has the props! There is so much more here than Star Wars. I mean, he has a Krull weapon-thing. Wow. So much nostalgia, and so much to focus on. But more important than the objects to attract us is his story. His charitable work and experiences sponsoring a child in hardship through to her medical degree, and his continued work to position her in the world all while inspiring young people to explore their talent... Yoda would be proud. It's such an honor to meet Nick, not only because of how he most likely inspired your imagination in childhood, but also just to hear about what inspires him to keep this up. I wish we could have afforded to buy some of his artwork, but I was not going to low-ball any price negotiation with him once we understood where he uses this money. We bought 4 books and got some signed for my kids. Oh, by the way, he wrote a great book. We had no idea when going to Sint Maarten that anything like this even existed or that someone like Nick, with all of his historic contributions to our culture, would be so accessible and kind to a couple of tourists. If you are on this island, it's small, you totally have time to take the drive to see him. He's in a bustling area, so you will have a blast there. Or, if you'd enjoy a personal encounter with a great guy who has always been a part of your life but you never knew... You should go to Sint Maarten. They also have beaches and stuff.

As we were on our Carnival cruise we heard about That Yoda Guy museum exhibit in our stop at St. Maarten. My husband was super excited as he loves everything Star Wars. Our experience was super great! Nick and his wife were lovely kind people, and the museum itself was so informative and had such neat insights into Star Wars and other movies. A must stop if around the area!

While planning our vacation to Saint Maarten, I was surprised to discover this place. My son and I had to check it out, and it turned out to be an incredibly fascinating, entertaining and educational experience. Visiting felt like stepping behind the scenes of Star Wars and other iconic movies. We explored scripts, storyboards, lifecasts, and more. To top it all off, we had the privilege of chatting with Nick Maley himself. He was so kind and generous with his time, even offering my son—who is a film major in college—some invaluable advice. It absolutely made my son’s day and added an unforgettable personal touch to the visit.

This is a hidden gem of a museum that is worth every penny if you enjoying seeing the craftsmanship that has gone into some of your favorite movies. Nick is there to greet you himself and he is happy to share stories of his work. There are one of a kind items on display and some truly heartwarming behind the scenes photos from Star Wars and other films. Note: it opens at 11 but since he runs the place himself it could be later on a day he has an appointment. Just plan to come back by in the afternoon!
