exquisite, rejuvenating, charming, private, elegant, beautiful sunset, luxury

Our stay at Spyglass during the last two weeks of February 2011, was one of the very best vacations that my husband and i ever experienced.

We were wamly greated at the peir by Villa staff, and taken to the Spyglass, where a welcome basket of fruits, crakers, local cakes and wine awaited us. Also provided was a delicous dinner, it seems like our needs were anticipated, given that after a long day of travel it was exactly what we needed.

The villa was exactly as described in the listing. Just more beautiful in reality.

The property was immaculate, and was maintained daily by a very gracious and curtious woman, no cleaning detail escaped her.

Any questions or needs we had (which were few, given that everything is thought of ahead of time) were very promptly answered and or taken care of. I never felt like either my husband or i were a bother.

I would unreservedly reccomend this property to my friends and family.

The views from every room in the property, over looking Sandy Ground, the beach and St Martin in the distance were phenomenal.

The beaches on Anguilla, rated among the best in the world, were all virtually a few minutes away by car, and if you prefer the pool, the edgless pool at Spyglass was, (for me ) was a unique expeirience. (See photo)

My best dinning experiences on the island were at DiVidas, Cap Juluca, Smokey's and at SpyGlass! We had a delicous meal prepared in house by their cook.

My only challenge at this point is, to hope that it will be available in 2012, as i cannot imagine staying anywhere else on Anguilla, which is my favorite home away from home.

Janine (the managent) and her crew are exceptional. I say this with complete sincerity, as someone who has traveled quite a bit.

Spyglass Hill is truly a paradise regardless of situation. The Villa can easily accomodate a family with small children or 4 adult couples looking for a romantic getaway. It offers luxury and service unparalled anywhere else. The villa is perched on top of a hill overlooking Anguilla's most picturesque bay and the view is so overwhelming one could easily spend an entire vacation and never leave the porch or infinity pool. The rooms, outdoor showers, open courtyards, billiard & exercise rooms, etc... are all icing on the cake when it comes to a luxurious vacation getaway. It simply doesn't get better than Spyglass Hill.

We have selected Spyglass Hill for our accommodations on several trips to Anguilla, including our recent stay in May, 2010. We prefer staying at Villas while vacationing in Anguilla over the "resort scene" because of the privacy (our own pool, kitchen and plenty of space) and the opportunity to entertain friends or family who were also on island. We certainly did not lack any of the luxuries, or amenities at Spyglass Hill. The Villa has a beautiful kitchen, wonderful master suites with private outside showers with views of ships or stars (I love that!) and plenty of room if traveling with family or friends. The grounds are well maintained and secure. Technology is at your fingertips if you need to be in touch and a there's a well equipped exercise room and pool table if you're staying indoors.

The Sunset Homes staff are easy to communicate with on and off island and will see to your every need. We love that! Monica keeps the Villa spotless. Spyglass Hill is a little off the beaten path but provides a spectacular view of Sandy Ground (we just love seeing the sailboats and yachts come and go) from all windows and we loved soaking in the infinity pool and looking at the views.

When we travel to Anguilla we prefer to explore the area and try different restaurants, beaches and views. Spyglass Hill is centrally situated to provide easy access the east and west ends of the island. Anguilla is a special place for us and we return there to unwind and recharge as often as we can. Our biggest effort while on island is trying to decide which fabulous beach to go to during the day and which amazing restaurant to go to in the evening! There is absolutely no efforts or concerns when staying at Spyglass Hill! We are very disappointed if someone beats us to our travel dates and it's not available! I highly recommend this Villa.

We love the house, the privacy and the view is unsurpassed. The beds and linens are the best, very comfortable. The management is very responsive and the housekeeper Monica is a 10. The only drawback would be the noise at night from Sandy Ground. We felt it was worth the trade off to have such a spectacular view and we don't have trouble sleeping but if that is an issue for you perhaps packing some earplugs would be a good idea.

The sunsets are spectacular and we can't wait to get back there next year.
