Anguilla Great House Beach Resort

This hotel is a simple place to lay your head and shower. The beach view is outstanding, and getting into the water is so simple. We ate breakfast each morning, and I found out after the first day that there is free coffee, tea, cereals, boiled eggs, juice, and apples. I wish someone had mentioned this to us at check-in. Chelsea, our favorite waitress, let us know on our second day. We ordered eggs, omelettes, or pancakes each day. Our food was always delivered fast and piping hot. The rooms are very tired and have been freshly painted on the outside. The place could use a renovation, but it did the trick for us. The gingerbread cottages are cute from the outside. There is no room safe, and carrying my passport made me nervous. Cocos is their beach bar, serving delicious piña coladas, Margherita pizzas, and other simple dishes. The prices are quite reasonable, and my two favorite waitstaff, Chelsea and Diana, always provided us with excellent service. At the Caribe restaurant, we had delicious lobster pasta! It was so good I had it twice during our four-day stay. The beach chairs were really worn out, but the view was priceless. Getting into the water was so easy, and I was able to enjoy this beach, unlike some other five-star places properties. Next time, I would bring my beach towels; the towels are small and have some holes. The housekeeping staff did an incredible job for an affordable property. They kept our room clean and were always available if we needed anything. Be sure to tip these hardworking individuals; they truly deserve it. We had everything we needed from them, including plenty of shampoo and more. The staff at the reception desk was outstanding. They even allowed us to check in a couple of hours early. The girls were all friendly and helped arrange our transportation to the Ferry. The owner is an older gentleman whom we met on this trip. He was pleasant and took time talking to my husband. This is a family-owned property that has been in the family for many years. In a nutshell, this is a bare bones property with excellent staff and clean rooms on one of the most beautiful beaches. It cost us $200 a night with taxes, and we would stay there again in a heartbeat. I can't wait for next year!

Lovely location but it needed to be rebuilt Worst property I had ever stayed in! Staff tried but difficult for them!

Authentic Local Chill. Amazing location. Friendly staff. Great local vibe. Drinks and food at the beach bar were delicious and reasonably priced. Live music on Sundays popular with the locals. Great place to meet and chill with both guests and Anguillans, some of the friendliest people you’ll ever meet.
