The restaurant

Created in 1988, the Karibuni has become, thanks to the quality of its service, one of the most popular restaurants in Saint-Martin. Open 7 days a week, during the high season, we welcome you from 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. (to the rhythm of the public ferry that takes you to Pinel).


Perfectly integrated into its environment, the restaurant offers an authentic and friendly atmosphere by the crystal clear water of the bay. The decoration is tastefully elaborated and uses natural materials: wood, palm leaves, fibres… Each space in the restaurant is unique and will offer a different atmosphere to your lunch.
