We had a wonderful week in Bellamare! The villa and the people were great and it was really nice being so close to Shoal Bay beach. We hope to come back to Anguilla soon and would definitely look to see if this villa is available again.

We had a wonderful week at the Clubhouse Suite at Bellamare. Jerdell was super welcoming and met us at the ferry with our rental Jeep and gave us a tour of the house, including the fridge that he stocked with some essentials (thank you Jerdell!). The house is big with two spacious bedrooms, each with their own bathroom. And the view from the deck (all with brand new furnishing) was spectacular. Every morning, we walked from the house down the path to a private beach and loved our ritual of walking around the point, wading in the water just a little, to get the the bigger beach with lots of laid back restaurants and chairs and umbrellas for rent and amazing swimming and snorkeling and music. We spent every day on that beach and went out to eat in the nearby village to Ben's Pit Stop and other restaurants. All in all, it was a restful vacation in an amazing place. We highly recommend it!

Fit our needs perfectly. The host, Jerdell, was very helpful and even met us at the ferry.

The villa itself is pretty large and it is setup just right for large families, friend groups, or even for several couples traveling together. When you first walk into the Villa, you enter the Family/ TV room, which is surrounded by glass doors, so you can see the pool right outside, then the ocean view. Walking through the doors on the right will be the kitchen, a huge dining table that seats about 8, and a sitting room where you can read or have breakfast. There are two other rooms on this wing of the villa: the first room has two twin beds and a full bathroom, the 2nd is the Master bedroom of the Villa, It has a King size bed, which faces glass doors to give you a view of the ocean along with a full bathroom and closet. This room has a separate outdoor jetted tub (note: bring some bath bombs to REALLY amp up this experience). To the left of the pool, is another room, which is smaller than the master bedroom, but this also has a king size bed, with a full bathroom. This room has both an outdoor shower and tub (not jetted). Around the Pool area there are plenty of lounge chairs, and a gazebo where you can relax and take in the view. If you walk out a little further, there is a little dock that has 2 lounge chairs for you to relax overlooking the ocean. I would advise any future guests to be careful near this area; there is no guard rail so I would keep a watchful eye on small children. Next to this area there is a path to the beach below. Depending on the time of day/ year, the beach can be pretty empty (which, in my opinion, is a wonderful thing). The Villa is equipped with a full kitchen, large refrigerator, stove, microwave, dishwasher and grill. The manager provided a few bottles of water and even a complimentary bottle of champagne (the true way to a woman’s heart). I suggest going to the grocery store and loading up on food/ snacks if you are planning to cook a little during your stay. During our week long stay, we ending up having a nice bbq and pool party. It was perfect. The villa supplied us with everything we needed to get the job done. There is air conditioning, strong Wi-Fi, and a local cellphone is provided. The Pool is between 3-6 feet deep; the deepest part being closer to the front entrance (I don't think it's actually labeled on the pool). A turn down service is also provided through out the stay. The staff was extremely nice and was always there to provide help if we needed.
