Top 8 Resorts in Anguilla, Caribbean

April 22, 2023 Alice Mieles

What makes Anguilla's beaches the best in the world? White, powdery sand that stretches for miles, pristine waters and the laid-back, welcoming attitude of the Anguillan people. Swim and sunbathe all day—and all year round—at romantic public beaches like the aptly-named Rendezvous Bay, then dance to calypso music at Anguilla's annual summer festival.

Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel, Anguilla

The prettiest beach on the island

Reviewed By Jwitenko

It was very difficult to put a four star review here because there were parts of the stay that were absolutely five star quality. We split our time on the island between the four seasons and belmond, thus providing a great comparator. Hands down the beach is phenomenal and cannot be beat. The villas are a mere few steps from your personal lounge chairs. The water is crystal clear and calm like a pool. Our suite was very nice and again, the location is amazing. For the things that can be improved, it would largely be related to service. For instance, as we were leaving, an hour before we had to leave for the airport we called to have our luggage taken down the flight of stairs for us and my 70+ year old parents. Well it never came and my husband was forced to carry all down as we rushed out to try to make our flight. As another example, on the first day at the beach, service was amazing and our wet towels were replaced throughout the day with fresh dry towels. Each day thereafter the service was poor by the beach. No one came by for service and on our third day, our attendee told us a minimum of five times that it was her last day before we left because she was off, with the clear suggestion that she wanted more money before she left. As another example, the dining is extremely over priced for the quality. We walked to cap shack one day for snacks and the guacamole was clearly store bought (and the chips were stale) unlike the fresh guacamole available throughout the island and even at cipps for breakfast. When we are at cipps for dinner, we were all very uncomfortable with the service. For starters, we were not told house water was available so went on to spend nearly $40 on water. Then the servers were constantly at our table to the point that it was uncomfortable to have a conversation because they were essentially part of it. Overall, it was a great experience and again, it is worth going for the beach alone. You just may want to split your time at Four seasons, where they have perfected service.

Unique service Excellence and a tropical Paradise

Reviewed By EliteTravellers

I recently attended and officiated a wedding at the Malliouhana resort in Anguilla and came away very impressed with the level of excellence , service quality, staff all surrounded by lush beautiful property with stunning views. The mark of a well run property is when the GM is away (this one on Annual Home leave), the Property runs without skipping a beat and this one surely does, Even before my arrival, I spent time working back and forth with all of the Concierges and was thrilled to be able to meet each of them in person to thank and acknowledge their care and attention to our group’s multiple requests. All were met. My appreciation to the Front desk for also taking great care of us and I had a chance to thank each of them in person. Kudos to the FOM Raquel Fleming who gave us not only a great suite but ensured any and all requests were met with speed and accuracy. Kudos to Events Director Adalberto and his staff who ensured ethe entire Wedding itself went off without a hitch and spent time with me personally to take care of minor details. The folks at Celeste, the bar, the pool were all awesome. Thanks to Corporate Shan who helped communications flowing. Finally special recognition to Victor at the Bell desk who was constantly helping us move from one location to the next, always with a smile and always helpful. He quickly became a favorite of our family. He is a shining example of the great hospitality of the Property. I hope he is well recognized. Finally a note to my fellow guests. The service above came from very hard working staff. Please be appreciative and although not required, and never asked, please show your appreciation by taking care of these amazing employees who live on a very expensive island. CEO Craig Reed says that he wants each property of Auberge to be distinctly unique. This resort clearly delivers!

Where anything is possible

Reviewed By Jwitenko

This was our second visit with our first time being in 2019. The first time we came we had some hiccups, but given the beautiful location, wanted to try again. We are so glad we did because it exceeded all our expectations. Our luggage was lost traveling to the island so we were missing some of our stuff from the start and the front desk quickly provided us these really nice leather pouches with travel items. I have been the victim of lost luggage many times at many hotels and this was the nicest collection of items I have ever seen. The rooms are beautiful and the views of the ocean are stunning. The pool is as amazing as it appears in photos and makes for some great photographs! The most impressive part of the four seasons is the service though and all the extra ways they go above and beyond. For instance, throughout the day at the pool and beach, they being by samples of drinks and food. It provides a nice snack and we ended up liking some things enough to go on and order it! They also provide canisters with ice and water when at the beach and pool. These canisters were regularly refreshed! Each staff member was so friendly and so willing to go above and beyond. At the pool one day, I asked if I could have a drink that was not on the menu and the friendly server (shout out to Aiden!) responded, you are at the four seasons, anything is possible! That was absolutely our experience and we will be back. Only downside is that the beach is a little choppier than I would prefer, but that cannot be changed.

Beautiful resort

Reviewed By kateaG1777EO

We are currently here enjoying five magical days at this premier resort. We are in slow season and the hotel environment is quiet. The vibe is relaxed, yet refined, and elegant. The renovation is just beautiful with lush landscaping and with newly designed rooms and decor. Our junior suite has the most amazing view of the ocean and the mtns of St.Marten. The beach is second to none. With attentive and friendly service, it is obvious that the smiles from the staff are genuine and they truly enjoy working at this property.

Anguilla Great House Beach Resort

The Anguilla Great House on Rendezvous Bay!The perfect beach...a soft brush of sunrise across white powder sands, turquoise water with a calm surf that sways in and out with the tides. A few palm trees mark the green edge of where the island’s interior meets the long, open and peaceful cove. The Anguilla Great House, with its easy atmosphere and gingerbread-laced cottages, is centered right in the middle of this perfect beach. Wake up. Roll out of bed and into the sea. Laze the afternoon away on the porch, move slow, stretch out the day. At sundown, stars pierce the black sky and from the beautiful shore of Anguilla, the lights on the mountains of nearby St. Martin sparkle like a galaxy of stars and the moon shines bright on the white sands and sea foam…This is our home.

If on Rendezvous Bay, eat here!

Reviewed By MLS99

We ate at the restaurant here in the shade just off the beach, and the service, food, and drinks were perfect. Chelsea was fabulous, putting together some tables in the shade for us, delicious rum punches and Shirley temples, and tasty food: fresh fish sandwiches, barbecued chicken, even the vegetarian daughter loved it! Friendly, attentive service. Five stars!
