Nori, just returned home <sigh> from our first "Anguilla Card vacation." It was flawless. The Card was waiting for us at our villa as promised.
My husband and I saved way more than the value of the card and it's cool to turn in "The Card" with your credit card - feels very "VIPish." Thank you, great idea!

The Card quickly pays for itself, many times over.
That is if you are a "couple."
What about groups?
If you are a family or group, The Card covers you and whoever is with you on vacation, up to a party of 6 (on the same check or credit card).
Group With The Anguilla Card on Meads Bay
(The real card is much smaller!)
So your savings multiply!
"Couple" or "group," it adds up fast. For example, if you stay at a participating hotel or villa, you save hundreds of dollars before you even arrive.
If you stay elsewhere, you still save several times the price of The Card . Why?
It's because you save on virtually everything you do, from breakfast to boat tours, from transit to Anguilla to transport within it.
And new Partners are joining regularly.
About those savings...
Note: All price savings quoted below are examples of the 10% Anguilla Card discount received at Participating Partners.
Picture your family of 4 lunching, beaching, snoozing at Garvey's Sunshine Shack on Rendezvous Bay. Hand Garvey your discount card. Depending on what you eat and drink, you save $20-$30!
Repeat over the next 10 days for meals at JULIAN'S, Ocean Echo, restaurants at Malliouhana, and Tasty's POV.
Total savings, just on meals, for your family's week in Anguilla?
$150-200. Meals alone save you much more than the price of The Card.
Of course, you need a place to sleep...
From hotels like the low-price, high-value Turtle's Nest, to the luxurious Nevaeh Villa, the Card has you covered.
Stay at one of our Participating Partner hotels or villas and save anywhere from $200-1,000 (or more).
Naturally, there is much more to an Anguilla vacation than superb accommodations and gold-medal cuisine. Continuing with our example of a family of 4, let's get you onto, and around, the island...
Your air-car-boat savings add up to $100-300.
Sleep. Eat. Transport. Check, check and check. But you're not quite done. There are even discounts for things to do while you are in Anguilla (with more Partners to come)...
Shopping? Save $10 at SeaSpray on souvenirs for the folks back home. Save another $20-200 on a masterpiece carving by Mr. Cheddie Richardson .
Total? Save $20-200 on shopping.
$500-$2,000!
That was an example for a family of 4. The card covers everyone traveling with the Card Holder, from "2 on a honeymoon" and up to a group of 6 traveling together.

This. Is. Anguilla.
Nat Richardson's Palm Grove restaurant out at Junk's Hole is the first restaurant that my Dad and I fell in love with in Anguilla. A sandy shack on a quiet, untouched beach, this is Anguilla at its very best and most unique.
Who would guess that such a laid back business would serve what is arguably the best crayfish (somehow Nat always gets the biggest, juiciest crayfish!) on the island? Caught fresh, rubbed with spices and served with hand-cut fries and fresh-made coleslaw, the combination is unbeatable. Top it all off with a few rum punches and the afternoon is complete.
Nat himself and his son Theon make terrific hosts, too.
Must-Try: Grilled crayfish with johnnycake, coleslaw and fries

The Rasta Pasta
In the height of high season, drop by Ocean Echo and you will see how true it is to its name!

When it comes to food, Ocean Echo gets it right, too. The menu has a little bit of everything for everyone.
Must-Try: Rasta Pasta, lobster pizza

A little sliver of paradise, Sandy Island is an escape of its own. Set offshore from Sandy Ground, with zero electricity, noise or distraction, a day on Sandy Island is oh-so-relaxing. The sea, the sand, the surf... the setting is simply one of the best.

For many (especially those traveling from central and west coast time zones), connecting to Anguilla through San Juan has always made the most sense. Until Tradewind Aviation came on the scene, flights were infrequent.
Based out of Connecticut, offering flights to/from popular destinations such as Nantucket and St. Barths, Tradewind has added Anguilla to its list of destinations. They fly to/from AXA and SJU December-April.
And, living is easy on Tradewind. Plush and private (8 seats), the seating is all leather, the planes are air conditioned, and they keep plenty of snacks and drinks on hand.

Before we moved to Anguilla in 2008, whenever we saw our Island Car Rental waiting for us, we knew we were "home."
Easy breezy and totally trustworthy, Hamlet Harrigan runs a delightful car rental service. No hassle, no rush, no problem.
They feature a number of well-kept cars, from Toyota Corollas, to Jeep Wranglers, to Toyota Land Cruisers, to Nissan Armadas.
Upon arrival, you can either pick up your rental car at their office (they will have it waiting for you if the office is closed when you arrive), or you can request to have it delivered to your hotel/villa. (To pick up your car when the office is closed or to have your car waiting for you when you arrive at your hotel/villa, you must provide your license information when booking so they can prepare your temporary license, a measure required by government. That will be waiting for you inside your car.)
Upon departure, you can arrange with Island Car Rental to leave your rental car at the airport or Blowing Point Ferry. And, that's it!
So simple, so smooth. :-)
NOTE: The discount does not apply to rental car prices that have already been discounted.

Malliouhana's signature restaurant was the best restaurant in the Caribbean when the hotel first opened in the 1980s. Headed up by Michelin-starred chef, Chef Michel Rostang, its focus? French-Caribbean fusion. Today, that standard of cuisine is back at Malliouhana's restaurant, Celeste by Kerth Gumbs.

Owned and operated by Judd Burdon, a good friend of ours since our days living in Canada, Judd is a true waterman (you can see him in the photo below kitesurfing high above Blowing Point!).
Sharing a love for the sea and all water activities, we have spent many days out on the ocean together, whether surfing, kitesurfing or stand up paddleboarding.
And that's what Anguilla Watersports is all about!...
Anguilla Watersports offers two of the most popular water activities.
First, kitesurfing!...
With Judd, an IKO-certified (certification by the International Kiteboarding Organization) instructor, by your side, learning the sport is both easy and safe.
And Anguilla's beaches... uncrowded, sandy bottomed and with waters that shine blue for as far as the eye can see... sure make for a terrific setting.
Racing across Anguilla's shimmering seas, powered by the wind, this sport is rich with beauty and adventure!
If you already know how to kite, Judd rents equipment, too.
Second, Stand Up Paddleboarding (SUP)...
Don't feel like an adrenaline-fueled day?
Stand Up Paddleboarding is peaceful and utterly relaxing. You glide across Anguilla's waters with no motors or noise, just you, your board and the sea life below.
Anguilla Watersports offers various stand up paddleboard tours, depending on the conditions. With a sound knowledge of how wind and waves affect different beaches in Anguilla, Judd always picks the best location to start and end tours.
If you would prefer to go it alone, Judd also rents stand up paddleboards. High-quality boards, he chooses the best equipment for your height. Then, he delivers your board wherever you wish... a hotel, villa, beach, restaurant, anywhere! When you're all done? He'll come pick them up! Each rental also includes a lesson on how to use the paddleboard.
Each rental also includes a lesson on how to use the paddleboard!
We've had the most magical moments stand up paddleboarding atop Anguilla's seas. The board's small size lets you get up close with shorelines, spot sting rays and turtles below, and if the sun gets a little too warm? Just hop into the sea to cool off!
All around, it's a beautiful way to spend a day in Anguilla.

Long-established, Tasty's is an institution in Anguilla.
Owner and Executive Chef Dale Carty is talented and experienced, having spent years in France training under the world renowned Jo and Michel Rostang. Today, his refined skills are showcased at his restaurant, Tasty's POV.
Chef Dale Carty
Chef Dale takes classic Caribbean dishes to an haute-cuisine level, blending flavors that are unique to the region. Using the freshest ingredients, one could say that Tasty's is the original "farm to table" restaurant. Chef Dale has been embracing the ethos of "farm to table" long before it was called "farm to table." ;-)
Here is one example of a favorite dish for dinner...
Coconut Crusted Fish
Fresh fish (catch of the day) is encrusted with coconut and served in a spicy banana rum sauce (sautéed vegetables on the side). A curious and winning combination!
That same spicy rum sauce can be sampled, too, with Chef Dale's conch fritters...
Conch Fritters
Sizable and filled with large pieces of conch, they are fried to perfection.
From appetizers, to tapas (the stewed fish in a Creole sauce served on coconut dumpling is excellent!)...

If you like tranquility, you will love Tropical Sunset.
Set on the beach that's often called "the Caribbean's best," Tropical Sunset has carved out a quiet space on the popular Shoal Bay East. Located on the western end of the beach (before you reach Gwen's and Zemi Beach and after you pass Madeariman and Hank & Mac's), Tropical Sunset is peaceful.
Their signature blue umbrellas and lounge chaises sit undisturbed with unobstructed views of the bright blue Shoal Bay.
Bask in the sun or swing in a hammock amongst the lush sea grape trees that surround the restaurant...
Or cool off in the sea and snorkel Shoal Bay's reefs...
Or walk the beach from tip to tip to take in all of Shoal Bay's beauty!
When your stomach starts to rumble? It's time to head inside for one of the best meals to be had on Shoal Bay East...
Laid-back and casual, dine out on the patio or inside the open-air restaurant. Both spots have a terrific view of "Tranquility Wrapped in Blue!"
What's on the menu? Classic beach eats done right.
... and special entrées including curried chicken, whole snapper, filet snapper, coconut shrimp.
Our lunch picks on our latest, laid-back day at Tropical Sunset? Baguette garlic bread to start...
Followed by 10 oz. steak with rice & peas, sautéed potatoes and coleslaw for my friend Kirmani...
And one of my favorite meals of all time, Tropical Sunset's famous Anguillan Cracked Conch with French fries and coleslaw...
Light, fresh, fried to perfection and served with a marinara sauce, you're hooked at first bite!
After lunch? It's back onto the "best beach in the Caribbean" :-)
Reasonably priced and with one of the best locations on one of the world's top beaches, Tropical Sunset is a terrific spot for a relaxing afternoon and a favorite on Shoal Bay East.
Tropical Sunset is open daily for lunch.
To get to Tropical Sunset, drive to Shoal Bay East and take the left turn on the newly paved road - as if you are going to Zemi Beach. Take the first right on that road down to Tropical Sunset (the turn is marked with their sign).

You can't say "Twin Palms Villas" without saying "Meads"…
Owned by a family who has been traveling to Anguilla for over 30 years, it’s hard to believe that the owners are coincidentally named “Mead!" (You can read the serendipitous story on how their villa came to be here.)
And the villas are set just a 2 minute walk to magnificent Meads Bay.
A fateful coincidence, isn’t it? :-)
Based on location alone, Twin Palms Villas are a top pick! (In case you're wondering - yep, those beach chairs in the photo above are set up daily for you on Meads Bay during your stay.)
As for the villas themselves? Fresh and beachy, bright and spacious, Twin Palms Villas blend the feel of a Cape Cod beach house with the warm vibe of a Caribbean escape.
The property is made up of two private villas, Beach Palm and Coconut Palm. Surrounded by lush gardens, an aura of calm washes over you from the moment you enter the tropical property.
Beach Palm (2 Bedrooms) Step through the front door and you are greeted by a spacious kitchen, dining and living space that opens onto a large, terra cotta-tiled terrace (complete with a private salt water pool).
An open-floor plan, the first story is comfortable and airy. The kitchen is state of the art, complete with granite counters and all of the appliances you need for preparing meals in. The kitchen and dining area flows seamlessly into the living room, which has a flat screen TV (with cable) and stereo.
Both the kitchen and living room open up onto the terrace (with private salt water pool), surrounded by the soothing rustling of tall, swaying palms…
Downstairs, the Garden Master Suite is peaceful and private. The decor is especially charming, complete with Anguillian touches (conch shells collected from the beach, wooden sailboat miniatures...). The master suite features a king size bed, central air conditioning, flat screen cable television, and an en-suite bathroom.
Just across the hall, and opening onto the garden is Beach Palm’s second bedroom. Colorful and vibrant, it’s well-suited for children and/or another adult couple (the twin beds can be joined together).
This bedroom also boasts a beautiful and luxurious step-in shower…
Coconut Palm (3 Bedrooms) Down a winding path of palms and blossoming bougainvillea, Coconut Palm is well separated from Beach Palm. Coconut Palm is nearly identical to Beach Palm in its layout.
The first floor features a near-identical kitchen, dining and living space that opens onto a larger terrace (with private salt water pool), and two bedrooms are also located downstairs.
The difference? Coconut Palm's sizable Poolside Master Suite. It is set in its own building at the edge of the long terrace. Tucked away from the rest of the villa, it is quite secluded.
It also features a large luxurious soaking tub and a refreshing outdoor shower.
An extra-special touch? Coconut Palm’s tall tower with roof-top terrace. An idyllic spot to take in Meads Bay’s stunning sunsets with an evening cocktail!
Twin Palms Villas offers all of the conveniences of home - if “home” was surrounded by tropical gardens and located just a 2 minute stroll to Meads Bay ;-)
It is the perfect escape for large families traveling together (both villas can be rented together for a total of 5 bedrooms) or family and friends traveling solo.
Calm and quiet, peaceful and private, and with a prime location, Twin Palms Villas is an excellent choice, especially if you love the beach! Just follow the path and you’re *there*…

Have you met Garvey?
If you have ever spent a few afternoons "limin'" at CuisinArt's bar on the beach, chances are you know the man in the photo below!
Friendly, warm, and a ton of fun, Garvey was widely loved and sorely missed when he left CuisinArt to open up his own spot on the beach several years back, The Sunshine Shack.
Right on the sparkling sands of Rendezvous Bay (between Anguilla Great House and CuisinArt), his colorful, wooden shack on the beach is hard to miss when you're out for a walk along Rendezvous Bay.
Laid-back and inviting, Garvey and his team put you right at ease from the moment you walk up to their bar.
Picnic tables, beach chaises and umbrellas, and chairs and tables dot the sand surrounding The Sunshine Shack.
Whether drinking and dining, or out for a whole afternoon of sea, sand and sun, Garvey's set up is authentically Anguillian. No-fuss, comfortable and right at the sea's edge!
I would suggest starting the afternoon with the cocktail he's famous for...
The Island Cream Dream!
Frozen and blended, with a hint of coconut, it's a refreshing treat.
While you sip, mouthwatering BBQ aromas fill the air. Garvey mans the BBQ and ensures that you are well-taken care of by his staff.
What does he grill up?
... all served with rice and peas, coleslaw and salad.
The food is divine!
Topped with a special sauce, the BBQ itself has that smokey, straight-off-the-coals taste. Rich in flavor, the meat just falls off the bone.
The snapper is my Mom's favorite. Take Garvey's advice and drizzle it with fresh-squeezed lime and Matouk's hot sauce.
After lunch?
Settle in for just another picture-perfect day on Rendezvous Bay!
NOTE: To reach Garvey's, park at Rendezvous Bay's public beach access. Walk down the path to the beach and walk right along the beach until you see The Sunshine Shack just after Anguilla Great House (before CuisinArt).
