While visiting Philipsburg, Sint Maarten, my wife and I dropped in this little shop on Old Street. The chocolate is a bit pricey, but if you love chocolate, you must come here. We got a 7-piece box with an assortment of flavors including some with the local guavaberry flavor. Every piece I ate was great! More

I simply love chocolate - especially Belgian chocolate. So whenever I get the chance, wherever I get the chance to sample Belgian chocolate, I do. I have to say, Beatrix's Chocolate is the best I have ever tasted. Hands down!! Creamy, tasty, better even than those I tasted in Belgium. Honestly!!And the service was excellent as well- from the assistance... More

We stop to see Beatrix at least twice every time we come to the island. She makes the best dark chocolate we have ever had. It's a good thing she doesn't have a store near our home or we would surely gain weight! More

Hi, I always knew that there was a chocolate store on the island but I did not know that they had open a second shop. I was amazed with the variety that the store had to offer and the names of the chocolates tickled my fantasy so I decided to try 2 flavours, Guavaberry and Pina Colada. Hmmmmmm. Everybody who...

I have been thru Sint. Maarten numerous times and this is a must for me. Beatrix is a great hostess and her chocolates are marvelous. They deliver directly to your hotel or ship so your chocolates do not melt in the heat. They are worth finding when you are in Sint Maarten. More

This little shop, and 5 people standing in it is a crowd, is a treat and is a must stop for any visitor. I only bought the pick your own 7-piece box, included a caramel, two buttercremes and a lemon creme, and am wishing there was a zero after the 7. Rich not-overly sweet chocolate and centers that are the... More

I brought chocolate back on the plane and I am eating it now. It is melt in your mouth creamy. The rocky road bars are wonderful. The selection is wonderful with guavaberry cream centers to cream filled fruit flavors to nuts. It was hot that day so we were given a bag to keep our chocolate cool. The staff is... More

I love this place! Since I discovered the beautiful island of St. Maarten about 5 years ago, I have been back each year for vacation and I have to go to the Chocolate Box each time I visit! They have the best chocolate (hands down!) I have ever tasted! Each piece is creamy and delicious. She has a great variety... More

We bought a mixed box of chocolates which the shop delivered (free of charge) back to our cruise ship. We waited until the next day to try the candy. I love chocolate; this was the creamiest chocolate I have ever tasted. The dark chocolate butter creams were the best candy I have ever had (I have tasted alot of chocolate).... More
