Hotels in Anguilla

The warm staff greeting set the tone. The proximity, just steps away from a stunning beach. Availability of water toys, paddle boards and snorkels. Great snorkeling in swimming distance. Laundry and gym facilities were excellent and air conditioned. Room was comfortable and spacious. Loved the outdoor patio.

The details (we stayed in second floor unit 5B): a cooler and a tote bag for the beach was provided in the unit; each unit was assigned a beach umbrella, lounge chairs, table; bug repellent was provided in the unit which was handy for evenings on the balcony (we at least had open railings - the Manoah next door had solid glass railings on the balconies and I could only imaging how many mosquitoes they trapped in there and how uncomfortable they'd be without the benefit of a breeze on their legs); bedside throw rugs to wipe any last sand off; foot stool for shorter people; black makeup towels; store room with free floats, sand pails, etc to use; beer and wine for purchase from the office; water buckets at entry door to rinse sand off feet; a book exchange; well equipped kitchen with quiet-close doors, kettle, measuring spoons, knives (and sharpener!); in-room safe; fitness center that had working equipment and although small was well equipped; WiFi on the beach; the list goes on! We did not rent a car for a couple of days (we had the taxi driver from the ferry stop at a store on the way so we could do shopping fro a few essentials), but we did rent one for the rest of the stay as - it was necessary to get to other areas of the island: there is no public transportation and taxis cost just as much if not more sometimes, than a $40 per day rental car (that does not include the $20 or more (depends on number of days) one-time fee for a drivers license you must purchase).

EVERYTHING. I don’t know where to begin, from check in to check out we were treated like royalty. Everyone we encountered went out of their way to assist us and did it with a smile. We try to be as low maintenance as possible when traveling and know that often hotel staff is already overwhelmed with a few demanding guests. Well not at this FS. I wish I could have given each of them a hug goodbye. I look forward to seeing all of their smiling faces again one day. In addition to the incredible staff- food was 10/10. We ate at every restaurant except for the breakfast buffet, though it looked amazing. Other restaurants within walking distance from hotel.
