Nestled discreetly on a hill amid lush greenery and tropical gardens, Quintessence Hotel is an elegant manor.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
Long Bay Beach sits just down the hill by golf cart, and Meads Bay is a fifteen-minute walk away.
The rooms
Bathrooms are finished in Turkish marble with deep Roman tubs, and Garden Suites have their own private garden entrances.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
Red parasols line the freshwater infinity pool, which sits beside an outdoor hot tub and a life-sized lawn chessboard.
The spa and gym
The Aidan Spa offers botanical massages in an open-air garden gazebo, and the gym looks out across tropical greenery.
Restaurant
JULIANS
French bistro classics take on Caribbean flavors under the garden pergola, served on monogrammed china overlooking the sea.
At the table
Coral Beach Bar mixes cocktails right on the sand, and private dinner tables sit beneath vaulted cedar pavilions.
How it began
Owner Geoffrey Fieger spent ten years building the estate, inspired by the classic Malliouhana that first opened Anguilla to luxury travel.
