Setting

Between the sea and sky

From its lofty perch on the craggy cliffs of Little Bay, Àni Anguilla surveys its kingdom: landscaped gardens in bougainvillaean bloom, sun-baked wooden decks dotted with loungers and a furl of sandy coves take pride of place before a sweeping stretch of Caribbean blue. They’ve thought of everything at this private family residence spread across two airy villas. Dining is where and when you’d like, with a customised menu to meet your preferences, and should you tire of hopping between the dual infinity pools and rock-nestled hot tubs, there’s a roster of tailored romps to indulge in – explore the coast on mountain bikes, cruise the island at sunset, stage your own private party (yes, they’ll provide the DJ) or get cosy for a moonlit movie night amidst some Oscar-worthy ocean views.

Our Favourite Rooms

All rooms are similar in design with airy neutral tones, light wood flooring and floor-to-ceiling windows that pulls the natural beauty of the island into focus. The Ocean View Suites are a knock-out; spread across the second and third floors, each has a private furnished terrace with elevated ocean views, a large open-plan lounge and a freestanding bath tub. For young adults and children, the Guestrooms make a fine choice – located above the kitchen and entertainment areas, they allow parents to keep a close eye while unwinding in the evenings.

Poolside

Each of the two villas are serviced by a freshwater infinity-edge pool, both of which are enwreathed by hot pink bougainvillaea on one side and a procession of sun-facing loungers on the other.

Spa

Guests can take advantage of up to six spa treatments a day at the on-site spa room, with holistic, deep-tissue, head and foot massages to choose from. Those looking for a more active release can hit the fully equipped gym, take a round on the Peloton or brush up their serve with professional tennis lessons.

Packing Tips

Bikinis and beach kit: the resort has covered just about everything else.

Also

Àni Anguilla runs a scholarship programme for local up-and-coming artists, whose work is displayed throughout each villa.

Food & Drink

Top Table

Take coffee on the Turtle Bay Deck; breakfast at the main pavilion, lunch on the terrace and dinner at the rooftop lounge – each guarantees wow-worthy ocean views.

Дресс-код

Come as you are – though with backdrops as bonny as this one it’d be a shame not to dress up every now and then.

Hotel Restaurant

There’s no fixed restaurant as such, rather, dining space can be set up just about anywhere on site. We recommend starting your day at the main pavilion which benefits from a live cooking station (so you can request your eggs however you like them) before going in for a mid-afternoon helping of homemade sorbet and freshly baked cakes. In keeping with the resort’s tailormade ethos, guests will be consulted ahead of time about their gastronomic preferences and dietary requirements, from which head chef Karan Kumar will devise personalised menus for throughout your stay. Heads up: his speciality is in Asian-influenced cuisine so don’t miss the chance to sample some of his hand-rolled sushi along with Caribbean classics like the resort’s signature crayfish. A beachside barbecue lunch is also included once per booking; a day of wining and dining on the resort’s private bay. They’ll even bring kayaks, snorkelling equipment and stand-up paddle boards to keep the little ones entertained in between courses.

Hotel Bar

You’ll find the bar stationed on the ground floor of the South villa; a large open-plan space peppered with objets d’art where cream lounge seating and black pool tables set the tone. Floor-to-ceiling glass sliding doors lead directly to the pool, but much like meals, drinks can be taken anywhere. There’s a selection of wine, beer and cocktails on offer – of which the signature rum punch is a must (when in Rome…) – as well as rum tasting sessions and mixology classes.

Last Orders

Kitchen staff will generally be on hand from 7am to 11pm and meal times can be arranged as and when you predict you’ll get peckish.

Room Service

Sure. Order anything from the menu from 7am to 11pm.

Planes

For those travelling from the UK and USA, Clayton J. Lloyd International Airport (AXA) is a 10-minute drive from the resort, served by British Airways and American Airlines who run connecting flights from most major cities. Alternatively, fly into the neighbouring Princess Juliana International Airport (SXM) on Sint Maarten. The resort can arrange roundtrip transfers from either location; by car or shared shuttle boat transfer, respectively.

Automobiles

There’s a free gated car park on-site for guests, though you’re unlikely to need wheels on this compact little island of just 35 square miles – at least not of the four-wheeled kind. If you plan on exploring, the resort can provide mountain bikes for both adults and children.

Worth Getting Out of Bed For

Set your out-of-office, the rainbow city is ideal for those seeking a spot of disconnected repose with no less than 33 unspoilt beaches spread across its coastline. The neighbouring Little Beach Bay is one of the island’s most coveted, which is why you’ll often spot celebs flocking there to bob along on their boats away from the paps. You’ll find a vast range of activities included in the rate; take a two-hour sunset cruise around the entire island, summon the resident DJ for a private villa party, take a Caribbean cooking class with the head chef or dust off your trainers for a guided cycling or walking tour. For an additional charge, guests can also explore a host of uninhabited cays by private yacht (Prickly Pear Cays in particular is a must – an offshore idyll peppered with pink and yellow conch shells and encircled by an pristine coral reef), take a swing at the Aurora International Golf Club, hit the waves with a professional surf instructor or learn to play the steel drums, Anguilla style. For retail therapy with a spot of culture, head to the island’s capital, The Valley, where you’ll find street food stalls, one-of-a-kind boutiques, museums and stunning colonial architecture.
