Inside "The Bubble"Anguilla has been receiving glowing testimonials for its "bubble" experience. From two week stays to six week stays, Long Bay Villas and Santosha Villa Estate have been delivering soothing getaways over the past year.
Long Bay Villas is Anguilla's most elegant and iconic ultra-luxury villa. The estate's three stark-white villas tier down the lush hillside that slopes up from pristine and exclusive Long Bay beach. Next door to Long Bay Villas, Santosha Villa Estate sprawls across 4.5 lush acres. A 37,000 square foot West Indian-style estate, Santosha is of a bygone era. It is Anguilla's most grand ultra-luxury villa.
Perhaps most importantly of all, the two properties are renowned for their excellent service. This has been especially true this year, in times of Coronavirus. Property manager, Patricia Bygrave and her staff have been going above and beyond to deliver the most blissful and safe escapes. From setting up offices with printers and high-speed & dedicated WiFi for guests, to organizing private chef services with the use of the villa's separate commercial kitchen, Long Bay Villas and Santosha Villa Estate have been pulling it off. Inside "the bubble," protocols include the use of PPE and separation of staff and guests. Despite the measures, the vacation experience is uninterrupted with chef services (thanks to the separate commercial kitchen) and beach access.
Patricia and her team have been doing such an outstanding job that guests have been extending their trips to multi-month long stays! Once guests are out of "the bubble" (photos below)...
"It's "normal life,"" Patricia explains. Guests are free to discover the island, dine at any restaurant, walk any beach. Still, they are opting to stay on-property where Patricia and her team bring all of the conveniences of "regular life" into the villas...
Between parents working remotely and children doing online school, "Cooking lessons with our chefs have become very popular as an activity, along with paddleboarding and kayaking for the kids," Patricia exclaims. She and her team at Long Bay Villas and Santosha Villa Estate have been giving travelers a whole new lease on life in these turbulent times.
With discounts for long-term stays, Long Bay Villas and Santosha Villa Estate make for the ultimate spring and summer family getaway. More on Long Bay Villas More on Santosha Villa Estate More Anguilla NewsAn Anguilla-Inspired "Must Read" A huge congratulations to our friend Trudy Nixon on her NEW must-read book inspired by Anguilla, Endless Turquoise.
Trudy weaves a compelling story of two travelers to a tiny Caribbean island: Tracy, a funny, feisty businesswoman who falls madly for a charming fisherman. And Charlotte, who should be having the time of her life on her dream honeymoon – but isn’t. Will the island help her heal? A long-time resident of Anguilla, Trudy has been crafting this gem of a read for years. She is a writer at heart. "I have always loved reading, particularly escapist women’s fiction, especially when the story is told from different points of view. Mix in some romance, a little humor – and set it in a stunning location I dream of visiting – and you have me hooked," says Trudy. "It has taken eight years to get from writing my first line (which is still there – just in a different place) to publishing. I write professionally, so it shouldn’t have taken me so long, but I took a number of different routes to get here and have experienced some challenging times (like all good heroines!). I am so glad to be able to complete this particular story arc." Set on the fictional Caribbean island of Zephyr, which is inspired by the island we all know and love, it is such fun to guess the inspiration behind the locations!
