The Scene – Late-night patrons at the Maritime Hotel's open-air bar unwind in an outdoor, though unequal atmosphere. While the exclusive North Cabana boasts reserved wooden tables, waitress service and limited patrons, the South Cabana welcomes less elite guests to a standing-room-only setting. Even the classic rock of the north side doesn't cross the connecting bridge, but no one in the conversing crowd seems to notice. But regardless of their social status, casually dressed guests sip from large daiquiri-style glasses and savor the great outdoors. – – The Draw – Not…
Editor's Tips
- Know Before You Go:
- This outdoor bar is not high enough above street level to show off the city. Instead it provides only a view of the hotel's porthole-shaped windows.
- When to Go:
- The South Cabana closes during the fall and winter months.
- Save Time:
- The entrance for the North Cabana is at 9th Avenue and 17th Street. Guests of the South Cabana enter at 9th Avenue and 16th Street.

Do NOT go to the Cabanas!!!
by tentimes11
This place does not deserve your money or time. I went there for a party and was man-handled by the bouncers outside. Because I was a female dressed in pants they would not let me in and made rude homophobic comments. Do not give this place your money. There are too many other fabulous bars in NYC - STAY AWAY from this place!!!

Love this place
by BradyTech
This place is tons of fun. A great place to hang when the weather is nice. Love the music on Friday nights. The drinks can be pricey, but it's a small price to pay.

Horrible!!!!!!!
by lee18
The decor of this place was beautiful but due to the lack of fans and AC you will sweat to death. Ive never been to an outdoor area with no air ventilation like this place. The food was horrible and the customer service was worst. My friends couldn't get in the club despite the fact that the club was damn near empty. Words of advice.... dont throw an event there.
- Pros: Decor
- Cons: NO FANS!!! NO AC!!! NO CUSTOMER SERVICE

Please read this review and save your event!!

I don't know where to begin.... I made reservations to celebrate my 30th bday here and I just wish I can rewind time and start all over again. I never experienced such terrible service ever. I confirmed my reservations for friday 8/7/09 two days in advance..When I arrived they acted as if they did not have a reservation for me, HUH what a shock!!!! They start off by acting as if they are fixing the problem and are going to take care of you. Ha, to my surprise one hour into partying and trying to make the best of the worst b/c the music was bad. I was told my guestlist was shut down @ the door b/c my tab was not adding up. YES the manager told me she cannot allow any more of my guests in until I spend more!!!! WOW I told her I was waiting for the rest of my group and that she was mistaken b/c we already had a bit of a bill considering the drinks were $15 a pop!! She literally walked me to my cocktail waitress who in fact had to confirm that I was spending my $$. Did you ever? She apologized and opened up my list (remember they said they had no reservation for me so how did they shut a list they never had LOL) So it is obvious they play around with your event to make more $$ from u. I was not a fool, I refused to allow them to continue b/c after opening the list I never originally had they shut it again. She said when I give her my Credit Card and keep an open tab she will allow the rest of my guest in because of the size of my party! LOL most of them were outside so my guests did not have a chance to build more of a tab. Meanwhile outside the bouncers were trying to make the months or years salary for themselves because the minimum bribe to enter started @ $50 so I received a couple of phone calls from those who refused to pay the nuckleheads @ the door saying they were going back home :-( My bday was such a disaster that I had to do it all over again @ my house where it was safe from all the lies and disorderly management and staff. Yes they were also very nasty throughout the whole situation. Please trust this review, I would have never taken the time out to do all this.... I will never go out again without reading reviews and taking them seriously!
- Pros: None
- Cons: Ruined my bday

This is the first time i had the need to write a review about a lounge ... The bouncers are so rude!!!! they belittle you and act like your getting in to the hottest spot in the world!! managent was poor!!! My best friends 30th bday party was runied after confirmed reservations ... when we got there it was another story they left half our party outside who came from long distances to celebrate this event , the bouncers were trying to make our guests online pay to get in, inside the waitress arent efficent and pressure you to buy bottles and tip them ... the music was terrible each song played for a few seconds and gettin cutoff it would jump from oldies to spanish to rock horrible dj ... i could play better music with my ipod for that place
- Pros: Nothing Good to say!!!
