The hotel is gorgeous. Every where you go on the property. The Sunset Lounge pool (adults only) is the best location for sunsets that I have ever seen. The service is good. Food at the Coba is great for breakfast, but average for dinner. Other eating options are walkable around the hotel. Get a car rental from hotel for day trip outings to other beaches. The hotel is placed on one of the best ranked beaches in the world: Meads Beach. It's awesoome. Enjoy.”
My wife and I spent part of our honeymoon in Anguilla at Frangipani. To sum it up. AMAZING! The food, service, accommodations, views, beach, weather, staff, the activities, the bed, the drinks ... way too much to list. Only 18 rooms. So wonderful to not be around 100's of people. We just cannot say enough about the resort and of course the island. The beach was ours. Of course there were a few people here and there. But nothing beats having a beach to yourself. Especially a white sand one with clear teal blue water with no sea weed or rocks in sight. The word breathtaking doesn't do the beach justice. Yes we did indulge a lot on this trip. We ate well, drank well and tipped well. Your on vacation, why not. You know what they say "when in Anguilla" Anguilla is the new Rome. If your looking for paradise, this is where you must go. We like to travel and don't often go to the same country, let alone the same resort twice. Frangipani will be an exception.”
Anguilla is gorgeous, QUIET, and has wonderful restaurants. Cab rides are a must and are a minimum of $ 22 one way so rent a car. The island is small and driving is easy. The people are VERY friendly. The food and beverage prices are extremely high at The Cuisinart as with many of the restaurants. You could spend $200-$300 for dinner for two. There are restaurants for the average person on island though. The sand at the Cuisinart is the best anywhere and Rendevous Bay is great for a long walk. You will not see a ton of activity on the beaches in Anguilla as on some islands. The spa is first class and the fitness center is quite large with all kinds of equipment.”
This was close to the perfect hotel...greeted by the very friendly owner (Maria) with a beer, this hotel has a great level of hospitality. Add to that very comfortable rooms, brilliant views over a fishing village, and within walking distance to spectacular beaches. On my favourite island in the Caribbean, I highly recommend Arawak Beach Inn”
I love Shoal Bay Beach so this was a perfect location. Plenty of nearby resturants and entertainment at Gwen's Reggae bar and resturant which is walking distance from hotel. A rental car is defintely needed to explore the island. Staff was great, clean and spacious unit. We chose a unit w/kitchen and 2 queen beds w/balcony overlooking the pool. Great. I do recommend.”

I have been visiting Anguilla since 1996 on nearly a yearly basis, and can not believe I just found Paradise Cove now!!! For as long as they maintain the value, staff and the property to the levels which we just experienced, they will be our first choice for all future visits to the fabulous Anguilla. The Owners are hands on and attentitive. Very pleasant and knowledgable, and most of all willing to do whatever it takes to ensure your stay is amazing. They could not have been more accommodating. The Property is clean, well appointed, nicely decorated and gives you a true BWI feel, with all the comforts. It is clear there is pride in ownership. Grounds are well kept, the pool is fantastic, the rooms are spacious and ammenities are all in place. It is located on the West side which in our opinion is the better side of the island. While not on the beach it is very close, an easy walk or they will shuttle you down, no questions asked. We always rent a car and love to explore, so for us this was a zero issue, in fact we liked the pool at the end of each day on the beach. The buildings construction is of a high calibre, often not seen in Anguilla. We enjoyed being able to make our own breafast most days in our room and having our morning coffee with "Fluff" the hotel cat on our deck. Our beers and snacks were all kept cold with an in room fridge. Microwave came in handy as did the 2 burner stove top. During the day we had free use of beach chairs, umbrellas, coolers, beach towels and snorkel gear. We even had daily ice for the beach cooler. again whatever we inquired about they seemed more than happy to provide. The staff greeted us each and every time with huge smiles and lots of giggles and laughs. Special shout out to Angela and Holly who really made our stay special. Holly attended to our room most days and went above and beyond, even offering to wash our clothes if we liked. Our room was spotless each day and any sign of mess was straightened and tidied without”
The hotel consists of wonderfully warm and caring staff. Service was generally prompt and helpful. The surroundings of natural beauty were exceptional, although, the drought caused the loss of greenery. Yet the colours of the sea and sky around were outstanding. I would have liked to be able to open windows in my room at the odd time I was in it, but that did not seem possible, and I did not ask, because I could trip easily to the outdoor spaces which were always inviting and available. The homeliness was also exceptional and for me a dream come true-being able to be so near to beautiful natural environment, and to receive good brand of hospitality, were worth tons, making my stay highly satisfying. I liked the Caribbean feel it gave me, a home away from home! Thanks to the hotel's hospitality and service as well as nature's bountiful offerings.”

Room was very nice. Ours was a 2 bedroom 2 bath condo basically but for some reason they deadbolt the other bed/bath if you don't need it (?) Place was not busy at all which was nice. The beach was very nice with plenty of sand and beach chairs. Be sure to check out the other beaches as this beach is pretty but not the prettiest on the island! A/C only in the bedroom was fine for US as who wants to hang out in the room when the beach is so close? Had a view of the beach from the balcony. The only slight downgrade I gave was that there is no restaurants in the property and somyou have to walk to them. Blanchard is very good and next door but a little pricey. The beach shack is less expensive. So unless you rest a car or walk a long ways you will most likely be eating at Blanchard and you will likely need reservations each night. Other than that it is great and still a 5 star place with nice workers. Car rental can be done right at the property. Snorkel gear is also available for free. Very nice! Recommended!”
