Since its opening in the 1980s, Cap Juluca has attracted discerning travelers who value its authentic Anguillan charm. Set on 179 acres on Anguilla’s western tip, the 108-room Cap Juluca features one of the island’s most stunning beaches and a friendly staff, many of whom have been with the property for decades.

The hotel’s 66 rooms, 42 suites, and eight villas (ranging from three to five bedrooms) are housed in Moorish-style buildings and come with a dedicated butler. This layout, with no more than six rooms per building, ensures privacy, with lush vegetation growing between villas. All accommodations feature views of Maundays Bay through large sliding glass doors, direct beach access, and private patios or terraces with loungers, perfect for relaxing or enjoying an al fresco breakfast. The villas have been fully renovated in a beachy palette of neutrals and pastels and include modern touches like bedside charging ports and Bluetooth speakers. Reflecting the Belmond brand, the rooms exude a welcoming sense of place with local touches, such as rope-bordered mirrors, framed drawings of Anguilla’s flora and fauna, and coastal bird or shell-collecting guidebooks.

Most guests prefer to spend their days on the beach, though the newly rebuilt infinity pool behind the fashionable Uchu restaurant is another option. Unlike some north-facing beaches like Meads Bay, the calm waters here are safe for small children. Other activities include water sports, sailing, a driving range, tennis courts, a fitness center, a croquet lawn, and a media room.

Dining options include the casual seaside Italian eatery Cip’s by Cipriani, located on the water, where diners are surrounded by turquoise Caribbean seas and illuminated by hanging lights at sunset. Live music begins in the evening, carrying across the water and down the beach. The main restaurant, Pimms, is an institution at Cap Juluca, where their chef offers elevated Caribbean classics with seafood-focused plates and Moroccan influences, along with a chef’s table tasting menu. The casual beachfront Cap Shack opens in the late afternoon for beach barbecues.
