Over two decades of serving St. Maarten visitors with the finest spirits, unbeatable prices, and genuine Caribbean hospitality.
Friendly Duty Free was founded with a simple mission: to offer travelers the best prices on premium spirits without compromising on service quality. What started as a small shop in Philipsburg has grown into St. Maarten's most trusted duty-free destination.
For over two decades, we've welcomed millions of visitors—from cruise ship passengers exploring the island to repeat customers who make our store part of their annual Caribbean tradition.
Our success isn't measured in bottles sold, but in the relationships we've built. Many of our customers have been shopping with us for decades, and we've watched their families grow alongside our business.
No pressure sales—just friendly advice to help you find the perfect bottle.
We pass the savings from duty-free status directly to you.
Every bottle is guaranteed genuine. We've built our reputation on trust.
Free delivery to most cruise ships—we make shopping easy for visitors.
Experience the Friendly Duty Free difference for yourself. We're located in the heart of Philipsburg, just minutes from the cruise port.
