    We attended the Asian Night event, but the food was too salty, which isn’t ideal for people with hypertension. Because of this, I didn’t enjoy the meal. Hopefully, others had a better experience than I did.

    We were staying at Little Divi Bay Resort in St. Maarten and PureOcean is part of the all inclusive package. We ate there on a Monday night, which is Caribbean night. Not my favorite type of food so I'm biased, sorry. I really had very little to choose from that I enjoyed, especially because I'm not a big fish or meat eater. However my two travel companions did enjoy their food very much, and they especially thought the fish soup was wonderful. We ate late, 8pm, and the restaurant was nearly empty. Not much salad left, which was pretty much all I wanted from what was on the buffet, so that was disappointing for me. Would have been nice if there was some fruit to go along with the very nice desserts they laid out. I don't really like a buffet like this for dinner. It's too bad they have switched from a menu to buffet at Pure Ocean for dinners. If I ever go back, I would go to a different restaurant on the property for dinner.

    The buffet had lots of selection and the food was good. Since it was a buffet you can expect that cooked foods may not be as crisp as when hitting your table directly from the kitchen but everything was very tasty. They also had a good series of salad and desert options.

    Skip the lobster. It's overcooked and dry. The service was good for a buffet restaurant

    Turns out it was an overpriced buffet. Not a lot of choice. Soggy. The food had been sitting around quite awhile. Steak was good and cooked on the spot. Service was poor. Desserts just ok.

    Hate doing it but have to be honest. My wife and I visited Divi Little Bay November 24 and absolutely loved our Pure Ocean experience. The sit down full table service was great and a big reason that we re-booked again in Jan 25 for our family vacation. We had dinner tonight with Pure Ocean’s new buffet concept and could not have been more disappointed. The food was average, there was no ambiance or experience and we had to serve ourselves from metal bins. We dined with maybe two other parties and watched the staff try to keep busy. Though our server was great, attentive and engaging, the meal lacked in almost every way. We won’t be returning for the rest of our stay and would not recommend until regular table service is restored and the old concept that made Pure Ocean a great experience is brought back.

    Good for an all inclusive resort- not the highest quality seafood.

    Waiter was great, food was disgusting. All of it, not one specific dish, everything we ordered was gross and probably frozen and reheated.
