The resort itself sits atop a panoramic bluff that winds down to the white sands of Anguilla’s best beach. Rooms, suites and villas are incredibly elegant with their pared back, white-washed interiors and expansive private terraces designed for taking in the gentle sea breezes. The two restaurants offer modern Mediterranean and Caribbean cuisine, with an emphasis on locally-caught seafood.

The white sand beaches of Meads Bay and Turtle Cove are just steps away, while the resort’s two-tiered infinity pool seems to drop off into the azure waters of the Caribbean Sea below. Other thoughtful amenities include complimentary afternoon tea and yoga classes, tennis courts and bicycles for exploring the island. The signature Auberge Spa, with its gorgeous tropical garden setting, outdoor showers and regionally-inspired treatments, remains a highlight.

A little further afield, the activities range from scuba diving and sunset cruises to hiking, horseback riding and championship golf.
