The red pin (below) is Rendezvous Bay.
One of Anguilla's best big beaches, Rendezvous Bay is impressive.
Long, expansive and with St. Martin as a backdrop, it is a favorite to many. Its perfect, powdery white sand seems to stretch forever!
The Eastern end is my favorite end. Quiet and peaceful, this area is less trafficked than the Western end. Clear, still and gentle, the Eastern end soothes the South. Move further West and you will find more activity and motion, with the likes of Garvey's Sunshine Shack, Anguilla Great House, Aurora Anguilla and finally, Bankie Banx's Dune Preserve on the far Western tip.
Walk beyond the Dune Preserve and you will find a most special place for meditation, "Stonehenge."
Rendezvous Bay is a magical beach that hasn't been too overwhelmed by development.

Description: Anguilla Great House Beach Resort is a good budget option.
The property has a West Indian feel. The rooms are small cottages arranged in a semi-circle, next to each other, facing Rendezvous Bay and St. Martin.
The rooms are clean and comfortable. If you are traveling as a larger family, rooms can be connected. I suggest requesting a room on the "end" of the semi-circle. Here, the beach is at your feet.
There is a restaurant on site. Other tasty restaurants, like the Sunshine Shack, are not far down the beach.
And, the property is an Anguilla Card Partner! So, save 10% on your stay when you book with your Anguilla Card.

Rooms vary from standard rooms to suites to large, ultra-luxurious penthouse units. All units are on the beach, except for the standard rooms. They are set further back in the main hotel lobby building.
Aurora's grounds are exquisite. Set right on Rendezvous Bay, complete with a large and inviting pool and aromatic gardens, walking through Aurora is always eye-pleasing.
In terms of amenities, Aurora Anguilla provides it all. The resort has its own Greg Norman, PGA-level golf course. A five-star luxury spa is on site too, providing soothing and therapeutic services.
Aurora Anguilla really does have it all.
