Bird of Paradise is a luxury villa located on a small bluff above Sandy Hill Bay. This vacation rental was designed in an Asian-Tropical style with meandering, lagoon-style pools that weave between four buildings and lush gardens.

Sandy Hill Bay’s crescent-shaped beach is a short walk down the path, and its sheltered bay offers excellent swimming and snorkeling as well as a safe harbor for a small yacht. A large Indonesian daybed is situated in a grove of palm trees to the side of the villa and is perfect for massages and naps. The villa has a long, winding pool that runs along the foyer, master suite, common area, and back terrace. A bridge runs overhead for easy access from the living room to the master suite and a sundeck sits at the edge of the wading area. Palm trees and bougainvillea border the pool without obstructing the ocean view. Bird of Paradise offers multiple sitting areas both inside and out, with a fireplace, gas grill, lounge chairs, and dining tables. Anguilla’s outdoor ambiance is captured in large verandas and terrace patios throughout the property. At the front end of the villa, there’s a deck nestled in a palm grove with a hammock and a dining table.

The villa offers true indoor-outdoor living with walls of folding doors and high ceilings. The interior living room opens to the ocean view and has Balinese furniture, including an ornately carved armoire that hides the flatscreen TV. It connects to the formal dining room and dining veranda. The wet bar and kitchen are fully equipped with modern appliances, a coffeemaker, an antique Chinese work table, and access to the outdoor living area. Each of the villa’s suites are designed to act as their own retreats with a veranda, panoramic view, mini fridge, coffee service, and ensuite bathroom. Two suites have king beds, one suite has two queens, and one has two twin beds that can be made up as a king. The king suites have whirlpool bathtubs and outdoor showers in their ensuite bathrooms. Frette linens and Bvlgari amenities enhance the home’s tropical luxury. The office which is connected to the twin suite provides additional bedding. It has two daybeds, a TV, a DVD player, and access to a private terrace. Two daily housekeepers, a concierge, manager, and laundress will maintain the villa’s interior.

Perfect for holiday retreats, weddings, or family reunions, Bird of Paradise offers a home away from home. Golf, scuba, fishing, restaurants, and nightlife are all within a short drive.
