    Rendezvous Bay, Anguilla

    January 11, 2015 / No Comments

    There are a lot of lists of the best beaches in the Caribbean and the best beaches in Anguilla.  When it comes to Anguilla, you usually hear about Shoal Bay, and don’t get me wrong, it is a beautiful beach.  So is Meads Bay, and Cove Bay, and Maunday’s Bay.  I could keep going, but my favorite beach on the island remains Rendezvous Bay. It was our first beach on the island.  When we first visited in 2007, we arrived after dark.  I remember walking out on the balcony and seeing loads of stars, hearing the waves, and seeing bits of the surf in the distance, but it wasn’t until the…

    Take Me Back to the CuisinArt Resort, Anguilla

    January 6, 2015 / 3 Comments

    Coming back to The CuisinArt was like coming home again.  We stayed here on our very first trip to Anguilla in 2007.  I still remember the doorman calling to us as we ventured out for our first bit of driving on the island, “Left is right, right is wrong!” It’s a family-friendly resort that’s not too stuffy and not at all chaotic.  It just fits. The resort is just as beautiful and the staff just as welcoming as I remembered.  The grounds are well-maintained, filled with lush plantings. The lobby looks out to the beautiful series of tiered pools that lead you out to the beach. And the beach is…

    Take Me Back to The Dune: Bankie Banx’s Dune Preserve, Anguilla

    January 1, 2015 / No Comments

    A trip to Anguilla is not complete without a stop at Bankie Banx’s Dune Preserve. We first visited in 2007, and although our kids were young, ages 8 and 10, we forced them to stay up late so we could hear Bankie play. The place has such a relaxed feel to it, that it’s hard to pass up.  It’s kind of like being at your own beach place.  It’s just so easy to hang out there, and the views of St. Martin never get old. The sign on the road has been updated since 2007. And it’s a bit more built up since then. This year, we popped in when…

    Just Back from Anguilla!

    December 3, 2014 / No Comments

    We’re back from a very restful stay at the CuisinArt Resort on the beautiful island of Anguilla.  This was our fourth trip to the island, and our second stay at the CuisinArt.  The resort is located on Rendezvous Bay with views of Ste. Maarten/St. Martin in the distance.  This two-mile stretch of beach is great for beach walkers, and those who like to stop for a drink or two are just a stroll away from Bankie Banx’s Dune Preserve and Garvey’s Sunshine Shack. We sent out twenty rolls of film for processing today, and also shot loads of digital, so stay tuned over the next few weeks for posts from…
