WhereToStay.com's Review
Located on the fashionable and popular West End of Anguilla, Anacaona Boutique Hotel has two pools, a restaurant, and a ton of other amenities to enjoy during your visit. It is the ideal place to make your home base while seeing all the island has to offer. The friendly staff make you feel at home right away and they will happily see to all your needs. Accommodations include all room sizes, junior suites, and villa suites with terrific views and everything you need to make your stay comfortable. The restaurant and bar will keep you well-fed with a focus on foods reflecting Caribbean and Anguillian culture. Great for family reunions, business retreats, or just a getaway for two. A great place to stay for a week (at least!)

Hotel Description
Anacaona Boutique Hotel is the ultimate hideaway overlooking (and with access to) Meads Bay in the heart of the trendy West End on the peaceful island of Anguilla. It is a paradise for those who appreciate quality, friendly people, stable government, warm weather, beautiful beaches, and excellent restaurants. Anacaona Boutique Hotel, built in Mediterranean style with Caribbean colors, is run personally by the owners together with an experienced management team.
The hotel has two swimming pools. The larger of these is near the Main House with a poolside bar. The second, somewhat smaller pool, is in the middle of the tropical garden close to the three suites. The beach is within an easy stroll on a comfortable footpath through the garden. Hotel guests have sun loungers and umbrellas at the beach. There is also beach service.
In the Main House, there is a lobby, reception area, lounge, boutique, massage centre, restaurant, and poolside bar, along with two of the junior suites.
Close by, Allamanda House, has 20 hotel rooms whose balconies or terraces are all designed with views of the tropical gardens and Meads Bay. The superior double rooms are located on the first, second, and third floors, and the standard rooms are on the second floor. Our junior suites are located on the top floor of our Main House and in the tropical gardens. The suites are located in the centre of the tropical gardens not far from the beach.
The 20 hotel rooms, four junior suites, and three, two- or three-bedroom villa suites are surrounded by tropical gardens and just a short garden stroll away from a mile of white powder sand beach on Meads Bay. On the beach and near the two pools are deck chairs and umbrellas. Snorkeling equipment and beach towels are complimentary at the reception area in the Main House.
