Luxury hotels and fine dining restaurants in Anguilla

Holidays in Anguilla

Anguilla’s turquoise waters, coral reefs teeming with life and white sandy beaches are the obvious draw for visitors seeking a quintessential Caribbean experience. Our luxury hotels in Anguilla provide all that, along with a sense of privacy and seclusion in pristine, lush settings, with incomparable service and food that blends island flavors with European influences. This is your perfect recipe for tranquility and well-being.

Here in the Leeward Islands, the tropical terrain is unusually flat compared to many Caribbean islands. Traversing the mountainous terrain of nearby St Barts, for example, seems like hard work compared to Anguilla’s more gently undulating hills, which are perfectly suited to leisurely bike rides or exploring its many beaches and coves by foot.

The cultural mélange of our luxury hotels in Anguilla

Officially a British overseas territory, Anguilla’s colonial history (mainly English but also punctuated with Dutch, Spanish and French presences) means that today it is a mélange of cultures–in language, predominantly English, followed by Creole; in cuisine, a mix of native Caribbean flavors, including abundant seafood, along with African, Spanish, French and British culinary influences. Just walk through the streets of The Valley, the island’s capital, for a taste of this heady mélange.

Our hotels in Anguilla bring to life your desert island fantasy: rooms overlooking crystal clear waters, coconut palms waving in the warm breeze and exotic birdlife flying overhead. Feel yourself relaxing as you gaze towards the horizon, contemplating whether to lounge next to your swimming pool, or feel the sand beneath your feet, cocktail in hand, before you take a dip in the warm Caribbean sea. Decisions, decisions…

Our luxury hotels in Anguilla comprise grand mansions and accommodation set amid verdant gardens that feel part of nature. Discover exquisitely decorated suites, with slowly turning ceiling fans or balcony doors thrown open to keep the breeze flowing.

The sumptuous surrounds of our gourmet restaurants in Anguilla offer a relaxed setting to enjoy fresh-caught fish and seafood with tropically-inspired interpretations of French bistro-style cuisine. Sun-drenched fruit and vegetables, with some grown directly in our own gardens, are full of flavor, while herbs and spices lend dishes additional local provenance. Choose between well-appointed dining rooms or dine à deux directly on the sand as part of a romantic getaway in Anguilla.

European influences also come to the fore in our wine cellars: our sommeliers have curated collections of outstanding vintages from French vineyards as well as new world wines from California, from full-bodied to lighter flavors that complement whatever you’re eating, whether delicious lobster, meat off the grill, refreshing salads or local dishes like goat curry and flavorful ribs.
