I just returned from an incredible vacation on the Island of Anguila. Figured I would share some of the details if anyone has been looking or planning to take some time off. Its not for every occasion but I would highly recommend this after my experience. If you're looking for a place just to relax this is premium. It is somewhat quaint so I don't think this is the place to go if your focused on activity.
Anguilla is a Caribbean island (its own country/ British Territory) a short boat ride off the north coast of St. Martin. Its east of Puerto Rico and the Virgin Islands. Anguilla is full of incredible scenery and amazing food. The waters are as crystal clear and warm as anywhere I've visited. The island is quite small and offers some great panoramic views of the coast.
Native foods include lobster, crayfish, chicken, goat and and a variety of fish. We kept our dining fairly simple and stayed more with fresh low key offerings than some of the higher end restaurants.
I stayed at a the luxury villa estate Sheriva. It has property, travel, and recreation management on site as well as staff for food, housekeeping and laundry services. The property contains three separate villas and two unique styles. The Infinity and Harmony are modeled about the same and the Mystique is completely different.
The Infinity and Harmony are both 14,000 sq feet, each with 4 grand suites, 1 loft suite, garden suite and 2 guest rooms fully furnished with wifi, plasma tv's and indoor/outdoor sound systems. They both have 8.5 bathrooms. The Mystique is the largest villa on the island at 21,000 sq ft. It has 4 grand suites, a loft suite, garden suite and 9 bathrooms. It is furnished with similar amenities and has a built in gym on the bottom floor.
The property is massive and overlooks the Caribbean Sea. There are 8 seat golf carts for transportation directly to a private beach area. The grounds are staffed with security that oversees the property through the night. Housekeeping is in at least three times a day to clean up and restock. The service is outstanding, the staff was timely, helpful and respectful.
We were fortunate enough to have had all of the villas vacant for use . They total 49,000 sq feet with 3 infinity pools, 4 traditional and 5 outdoor hot tubs.
We stayed primarily in the Infinity Villa and had the other two at our disposal
