Do yourself a favor and go take the tour, visit with Nick and his wife. Nick is very informative and spent tons of time with us. He answered all our questions and we purchased original script pages from Return of the Jedi. Fantastic experience and well worth the $20 entry price.
Any movie lover will be overjoyed!

Ran into this museum wandering around on a recent visit while cruising with Explora Journeys. We decided to go in and are so glad we did, what a cool place! So much amazing movie memorabilia, excellent exhibits, learned so much. The owner was so gracious and kind, left with a huge smile on our faces, cannot recommend it more.

Totally unexpected surprise ! Stopped in on my way out of town. Huge Star Wars fan from childhood. Nick is there every time it is open. I am sure he has been asked the same questions over and over. But he was a true gentleman and chatted for a bit over some of his work. All of his proceeds go to help children charities. The scripts, photos, and memorabilia is fantastic. Definitely take a side trip from your Caribbean vacation to meet a true sci fi legend. Cheers.
A one-of-a-kind treasure in St. Marteen.

This was the highlight of our visit to St. Marteen. Nick, the YodaGuy, is there personally and was delightful to talk to. His first hand accounts of his work on Star Wars and other great films were a treasure. His museum is a one-of-a-kind collection of movie memorabilia, original movie props, scripts, storyboards and more that you won't find anywhere else. So thankful that we took the time to visit. Thank you Nick!

Located one street behind the boardwalk, you hear the music as you're walking up to the building. There were some wonderful movie relics, as well as other creations from the artist in other movies. If you are a Star Wars movie fan, it's a "must-do" on the island. If you are lucky, you get to speak to the artist directly!

My wife knows I am a big Star Wars fan and we she surprised me by taking me to this museum, I was so happy. Nick was awesome, we got there right before closing and he still let my Wife and me in and gave us such a great tour about his museum and then he let us wander off. I felt like a kid again seeing all the props from the old Star War movies and other movies as well. Knowing Nick was one of the original Yoda creators was awesome and an honor to meet him. This is definitely a must see when you come to Saint Maarten. I wish more people knew about this amazing place. I definitely would love to come back when I return to Saint Maarten. Thank you for a great experience Nick!

The museum is truly a hidden gem! The admission fee was $20 which is donated to the foundation - a great deal for a good cause. The museum is ran by Nick and his wife, the sweetest couple ever! We were met with smiles and warm welcomes. The tour is self guided so you’re free to explore at your own pace without being rushed or pressured. The exhibits feature a lot of genuine and original pieces from the star wars movies and scripts. We were also pleasantly surprised to find exhibits on several other popular movies such as alien vs predator, the shining, the terminator, men in black, snow white and much more. At the end of the tour, you meet Nick “the Yoda guy” and he provides invaluable information and advice and loves to take selfies with you. I would absolutely recommend this tour to not only star wars fans but movie enthusiasts of all kinds! One thing I would add is online sometimes provides incorrect opening hours, so be sure to pass by to prevent missing out!
Exceeded expectations!!! Nick is a down to earth gentleman and it is fun to listen to his stories!

It was a spectacular experience meeting Nick and spending a good amount of time going through his very unique collection of things contributed from both himself and his friends in the business. Nick was very down to earth and his stories were fun to listen to. My husband and I really enjoyed our time there. We also purchased some artwork and I cannot wait to get it home and show it off to our friends.
