Anguilla All-Inclusive Resorts – A Detailed List for your Next Vacation

Anguilla swims under the radar for most tourists seeking out a trip to the Caribbean, and that is a shame since the beautiful island is home to some of the best beaches in the world. The typical vibe of Anguilla is laid back, meaning that it is the best place to enjoy a serene vacation, away from the usual hustle bustle of a city life.

The island is only 16-miles long and 3-miles wide and can be explored either on foot or on two wheels. Anguilla has over thirty white sand beaches that tourists can visit, and there are quite a few resorts that you can choose from.

However, all-inclusive (AI) resorts are not typical of the island, and are difficult to come by, but that does not mean that they do not exist.

Vacationers that choose to stay at any of the island’s numerous resorts have a variety of fancy restaurants and tour plans at their disposal. Which means, there is something for everybody, no matter how diverse their choices!

Tourists can choose from theme-oriented packages that suit their requirements, such as a Spa Package that includes daily treatments, allowing them to relax with aromatherapy and a massage.

While others might be more interested in a Honeymoon Package that includes flowers, champagne, couple massages, sunset cruises and more! There is some great news for the foodies too, as some of the finest restaurants on the island are located within the resorts and offer meal packages along with accommodation, serving up some of the most authentic local delicacies throughout your stay!

Many resorts offer free breakfast along with accommodation, giving you the opportunity to dine out. This is not as bad as it sounds, since you can visit some of the finest restaurants on the island every day!

Most luxury resorts in Anguilla also offer a number of complimentary facilities, as their charges are already included in your tariff plan. Some of these facilities include motorized water sports, and access to the gym.

All-inclusive packages are highly criticized by a number of travelers who believe that such packages discourage tourists from exploring parts of the island outside the resort that they have reserved.

Although Anguilla does not have a dedicated shopping district or many sight seeing spots, tourists should not remain confined to only one beach or resort. Instead, take some time out to explore Anguilla and its different beaches.

Some all-inclusive packages include the use of a rental car for a short duration. If your package includes the perk, seize the opportunity to explore the island. Prices start from $799 for a four-night tour and can go all the way up to $10,000 for a seven-night trip depending on the perks included.

There are just two dedicated resorts in Anguilla that can be classified as all-inclusive, and these are

1. Anguilla Great House Beach Resort

Located on the gorgeous Rendezvous Bay, the Great House Beach Resort might be the ideal place to book your stay if you are looking for an all-inclusive package for your stay in Anguilla. The relaxing and cozy rooms are brightly-colored and light up the generally laid-back ambience with a touch of liveliness.

The rooms are quite large and spacious, but the beach right outside means that not many people spend a lot of time in their rooms. In fact, heading right out the main entrance and into the ocean is one of the perks of staying at the Anguilla Great House Beach Resort!

Guests that are tired of all the saltwater can enjoy swimming in the freshwater pool inside the compound. While the restaurant, known as The Olde Caribe, is a crowd-puller and is loved by the guests and residents. The restaurant serves quite a few delicacies and some of the best cocktails in Anguilla.

If you are a health freak, head to the nearby gym to stay in shape during your stay. The resort can also arrange for a personal trainer at the client’s behest. The Anguilla Great House Beach Resort is an old and authentic Caribbean property with every modern facility imaginable. If you crave a soothing vacation by the beach, this might just be the best option for you!

2. Belmond Cap Juluca

 

This breathtaking property is located at the southwest coast of Anguilla, and is situation on its very own peninsula, much of which is a part of the white sand beaches of Maundays Bay. Talk about exclusivity!

Every room in Cap Juluca has an unparallel view of the ocean, which is barely a few steps away from the door, and guests can spend entire days on the beach on custom hammocks or chaise lounges located by the sea.

For the more spiritually-inclined guests, regular yoga and Pilates sessions are conducted at Cap Juluca. We recommend giving it a try at least once, as the feeling is unlike anything that you have experienced before!

Every room, villa and suite on the property is more spectacular than the last, and the Greco-Moorish architecture of the place is sure to grab your attention with retro-modern appeal. The experience of staying at Cap Juluca is further enhanced by the three ocean-view restaurants on the property, each serving a different type of cuisine, and offering a diverse dining experience with flair.

Guests can also utilize the complimentary gym facilities and sparkling pool, apart from the tennis lawn, basketball and volleyball courts, all within the property. Events for children are held periodically on the property while adults can spend their time at the two boutiques on site.

The third property that deserves a special mention on this list is the Manoah Boutique Hotel, formerly called the Ku Hotel. Many mourned the loss when the Ku Hotel closed its doors in 2013, but the hotel is now back, rechristened and stronger than ever, at the same location.
