Not disappointed with the view from the room.

An inviting entryway.
Highs & Lows
The soporific sounds of the thunder and waves right outside our bedroom windows.
The intimacy of the B&B – there are only 4 other rooms.
Really fresh and local ingredients for the breakfast spreads.
The ineffable beauty of the nature surrounding the hotel.

Eat like a local
Rendezvous Bay Beach anguilla
Post-swim, have lunch at a dodgy roadside BBQ joint.

Drink mojitos at the Viceroy during sunset
viceroy anguilla
Dinner at their restaurant is also recommended.

There’s many beaches to choose from, but Shoal Bay was, to me, the most pristine.
