Summer on Anguilla

admin — Mon, 26 Jul 2010 17:19:19 +0000

Vacationing on Anguilla during the months of September and October is very desirable. Even thought there isn’t heavy traffic on Anguilla during the peak winter time frame, September and October are very quiet. You can enjoy beaches that are virtually deserted, great values for villas and resorts, and many dining options like Pimms and Blue at Cap Juluca.

Here is a list of the restaurants that are open during these months:

Arawak Café at the Arawak Beach Inn
Blue at Cap Juluca
DaVida Bayside Restaurant
Elvis Beach Bar
Pimms Restaurant at Cap Juluca
Prickly Pear Bar & Restaurant
Ripples Restaurant
Spice Restaurant at Cap Juluca
Sandy Island Restaurant (Open by Reservations call 476-6534)
The Old Caribe at Anguilla Great House
The Garden Terrace Café @Paradise Cove
Maundy’s Club at Cap Juluca
Gorgeous Scilly Quay (Open Sundays only in September/October)
Picante Restaurant
Un Amore’ Cafe

It is so funny but temperatures on Anguilla are cooler than here in Florida during these months. In addition there is the fantastic Caribbean sea, beautiful white sand beaches and a very relaxed atmosphere. It is worth your consideration to getaway for a week or so to “tranquility wrapped in Blue”.

It’s Summertime and Cap Juluca is Calling

admin — Sat, 19 Jun 2010 16:34:15 +0000

It is all about the beach. Cap Juluca’s beach is unbeatable. The sand, the water, the shape, the beach service, all incredible. Now!!

The palm trees sway gently in the summer breeze. The tropical sun smiles down upon the sunbathers who dot the pristine, crescent-shaped, white sand beach. The crystal waters of the Caribbean cautiously lap the shore while offering a refreshing respite to guests. Relaxation is achieved. Beverages are consumed. Contentment is realized. This is summertime at Cap Juluca and it’s calling you.

Of course, for those looking for an experience that extends beyond one of the finest beaches in the world, the resort is your oyster. As a guest of Cap Juluca, you have access to water sports, spa services, three world-class restaurants on property and the opportunity to play at the first and only 18-hole golf course on Anguilla. With dramatic elevation changes and water features on 13 holes Temenos Golf Course, managed by Cap Juluca, is being touted as the "Pebble Beach of the Caribbean."

Anguilla – wrapped in Blue

admin — Sat, 29 May 2010 23:23:02 +0000

It was with caution that I departed home early in the morning on May 06th, 2010 for the 2:30Hr drive to Miami International Airport to take the American Airlines non-stop flight to St. Maarten. The drive was smooth until Miami where the usual rush hour traffic was stop and go, however I took an alternate route which flowed except for some traffic lights and school areas. Miami airport is still undergoing refurbishment which seems to be a never ending process. Anyway American Airlines departed on time and touched down in St. Maarten on schedule at 2:15PM. By 2:36PM I meet my group outside of Customs. Quite a wonderful Immigration and Custom service in St. Maarten. We were on our way to Anguilla to inspect and experience some of its villas, resorts, restaurants, beaches and activities.

One of the ways to get to Anguilla is by ferry from St. Maarten and one such ferry service is GB Express which departs from the Police Station at the bridge a 5 minute drive from the airport. We took the 4:00PM ferry and were in Anguilla by 4:45PM. It is normally a 25 minute ride however we took a ride around Simpson Bay.

Immigration and Customs went smoothly and within 30 minutes we arrived at one of Anguilla’s Super Villas, Villa Modena. Modena Villa is a brand new five bedroom luxury villa of approx. 10,000 square feet with two buildings. The main house has the master bedroom on the top level with two bedrooms on the lower level. The Tennis Building has two bedrooms / Suites on the upper level with an entertainment center on the lower level. It is an impressive villa with excellent ocean views, infinity pool, and lots of features. We were all a bit tired so Chef Kumakie prepared Anguilla crayfish for dinner. It was an excellent dinner and introduction to one of Anguilla’s specialties.

It felt great to be on Anguilla once more.

Golf again on Anguilla

admin — Mon, 14 Dec 2009 16:34:52 +0000

Cap Juluca Resort, Villas and Spa are the new operators of the Temenos Golf course on Anguilla which is great news. This adds new life to Anguilla with its available exclusive villas, resorts, spas, and fine dining offerings. Most accommodations are within a short drive of the scenic golf course which operated for a short period before closing. With St. Maarten / St. Martin and St. Barths just a short distance away the course should enjoy lots of activity both from on island and off island guests. It is a much needed boost to the island.
