Anguilla
Shoal Bay East
Vibe
Six oceanfront acres along Shoal Bay East offer barefoot calm with palm-lined pools and unhurried Caribbean beach days.
“Secluded oceanfront retreat”
Personalized greetings, crisp Frette linens, dedicated beachside service, and deep soaking tubs in generous oceanfront suites.
An authentic imported Thai teak house featuring a traditional Turkish hammam, vitality pool, and Taino herbal rituals.
Oceanfront acreage featuring an aquarium-window family pool, quiet lap pool, kids club, tennis, and complimentary watersports.
Set along six oceanfront acres on Shoal Bay East, directly on the white sand.
“Contemporary fixtures and exquisite fretwork conjure modern luxury with a touch of Caribbean flair.”
Rooms
Airy rooms feature wood accents and Frette linens, while select penthouses and suites add private plunge pools overlooking the water.
“The contemporary Caribbean aesthetic includes teal-colored couches, beach umbrellas, pillows, and glassware... the result is clean and cohesive.”
Wellness
Housed in a 300-year-old Thai teak building transported from Chiang Mai, the spa features Anguilla's only traditional Turkish hammam.
Backstory
New York's Goldstein family developed the resort in 2016, commissioning architect Lane Pettigrew to blend tropical forms with modern fretwork.
Eat & drink
Sample rare vintage pours in the Rhum Room or dine on fresh seafood at Stone and beachside 20 Knots.
The neighborhood
Shoal Bay East curves directly outside, where quiet coral reefs invite snorkeling away from the busier western end of the island.
The app
This is one hotel. The app has every one we rate, in your pocket, for the whole trip.
Our shorthand
What makes a hotel special, how well they pull it off, and what it feels like outside the door.
How well they pull it off
Extremely rare. Sets the global standard.
Brilliant execution. And we’re picky.
They did this well. You’ll notice.
A defining trait. Makes the hotel what it is.
The eight vibes
Architecture and interiors lead. There’s a creative vision at work.
The guest is conspicuously well cared for. Requests met before they’re made.
Rooted in place. Local character runs through the whole stay.
Energy and scene. Where the city goes out, whether or not it’s sleeping here.
A building with history. The story of the place is part of the stay.
Built around feeling better. Rest, sweat, soak, spa.
A hotel the city grew up with. Same rituals, same regulars.
A world of its own. No reason to leave the property.
Scene — what’s outside the door
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
A place apart: the property is the destination.
