White Sands Anguilla: Your Villa Base by Rendezvous Bay
A three-bedroom island home five minutes from one of the Caribbean's best beaches
Why Go
Skip the resort markup and live like you actually belong in Anguilla ΓÇö White Sands is a full villa-home in quiet Cul De Sac, a five-minute stroll from the powder-soft crescent of Rendezvous Bay and minutes from the Blowing Point ferry.
The Experience
White Sands feels less like a hotel and more like the island house of a friend with excellent taste. The three-bedroom, three-bathroom villa sits in the calm, historic Cul De Sac neighborhood of Blowing Point, with a terrace catching sea views, a garden to wander, and a heated dipping pool for slow evenings. Inside you get rain showers, stainless-steel appliances, a fully equipped kitchen, satellite TV, and free WiFi ΓÇö the kind of setup that turns a week-long stay into a rhythm: morning swims at Rendezvous Bay, market runs, sunset cooking with the doors open. Guests consistently say it's larger and nicer in person than in photos, spotlessly kept, and watched over by a genuinely warm caretaker who makes the island feel navigable from day one.
What to Try
Claim the terrace at golden hour with a rum punch and the sea in view, then take the five-minute walk down to Rendezvous Bay for a barefoot dinner ΓÇö The Dune Preserve and Garvey's Beach Shack are both close enough that you can wander back under the stars. On lazy days, alternate between the heated dipping pool and the hot tub, and cook at least one meal in the full kitchen with produce picked up on-island.
Insider Tip
Ask the caretaker for the local rundown the day you arrive ΓÇö restaurant timing, which beach is calmest that week, ferry logistics ΓÇö it's the villa's secret concierge service. And because White Sands sits minutes from the Blowing Point ferry terminal, it's the smartest base on the island for a day trip to St. Martin: catch an early public ferry over, be back for a Rendezvous Bay sunset.
The Practical Stuff
Located in Cul De Sac, Blowing Point 2640, on Anguilla's south coast near the ferry terminal ΓÇö arriving via St. Martin, you're at the villa minutes after clearing the dock. Three bedrooms and three bathrooms suit families or two couples traveling together; free parking and free WiFi included. There's no on-site restaurant, so plan on the full kitchen plus the excellent dining cluster around Rendezvous Bay. Book direct or through major platforms, and reserve well ahead for high season (DecemberΓÇôApril).
