Shoal Bay villa rentals

For previous stays at other VRBO properties, we have debated on ratings between 4 or 5 stars. For Oceana, we could have easily given 6 stars if that was an option! The pictures don’t do justice to the property and the surrounding views. The property is well maintained even though it seems to be rented often. Daily housekeeping service is provided, creating an experience similar to staying at a private boutique hotel.This was our first time in Anguilla and we were fortunate to have stayed at Oceana. The house is very spacious. There is air conditioning in each bedroom complemented by ceiling fans throughout the house, resulting in comfortable indoor temperatures despite the hot sun outside. The house has two master suites which can be easily shared by two couples while allowing for privacy. Loved the outdoor shower facing Crocus Bay.Our only suggestion would be to add an umbrella or two to the pool area for shade as the sun can be intense. The only problem is that one might never leave :-). A car is needed to explore the Island and its beautiful beaches. They do drive on the left, but compared to the US/British Virgin Islands, it is much easier to drive in Anguilla. The roads are wider and there is less traffic.Our favorite beach turned out to be Rendezvous Bay where we parked ourselves at Sunshine Shack. We were sad to leave. We would return to Oceana in a heartbeat. However, securing available dates may be hard, as previous guests appear to be repeat visitors.

The property has gorgeous views and great snorkeling. Plenty of room for our party of 12. We had a wonderful time here!

It was great! We only stayed two nights in the suite as we moved down from the penthouse. It is just as wonderful as the penthouse. Clean and spacious. Nadia allowed us to move first thing in the morning with little disruption to our day. The whole property is amazing with the gated entrance and short walk to the beach. Views are breathtaking. We throughly enjoyed every minute of our vacation. We can’t wait to come back again!

We had an amazing stay in the villa! As soon as you walk in the door and see the beautiful pool and ocean right in front of you, you instantly feel relaxed. The sound of the waves while sitting outside is magical. The villa has everything you need for a very comfortable stay and Scott is great at checking in with his guests. Everything was clean and well thought out for our stay.The location is great for privacy, but so close to plenty of restaurants and beaches. This is our third trip to Anguilla and we have always stayed in the hotels on the island, but this villa was exactly what we needed to rest and recharge. We relaxed at the pool in the mornings and then went to all the beaches to explore. You will be very happy staying here. It’s heaven on earth. Lastly, we loved seeing the wild goats daily on the rocks. It was a goat parade and for my teen who loves goats, this was the perfect surprise!Thank you Scott for everything!

It was a nice, smooth check in. We were met at the house by the property manager, Kerin. He showed us around the house and left contact information. We also met the owners, who live next door. The refrigerator was stocked with complimentary supplies, which was a pleasant surprise. We just had 2 couples, so there was ample room. 3 bedrooms with en suite bathrooms makes for easy living. Also, the 2nd floor patio with pool makes for a great place to relax and look out over the ocean.The house location is central and near a main road, so it is easy to get to wherever you want to go. The only downside is that there is a construction company equipment yard behind the house and they could be noisy at times if you were on the deck (but you really didn't hear it in the house).The house is showing some age. There were a couple of appliance issues during our stay, but Kerin was quick to repair the problems.Overall, this is a very nice house. It is spacious, comfortable, and well located. I would be happy to stay there again.

The views from every part of this house were simply amazing- the location was great, and the host was very communicative and easy to work with, Highly Recommend!

We loved our stay at this villa. The views out over the pool to St. Martin were gorgeous. The pool was super clean and warm. The kitchen well stocked and Michelle will gladly stock it ahead of your arrival. Also, great hot water in the showers and the A/C works great if you need it! Super quiet and convenient to the ferry, and a short drive from all of the great beaches. There are two bedrooms in the main house and one in a separate guest house. Note, especially if you have kids, the second bedroom while connected to the main house only opens to the outside and it’s accessible via a verandah. (So the kids have to go outside to get to the main bedroom or the main house.) The perimeter of the property is very secure with locked gates, and I’m sure this is a common layout in warmer climates. The laundry is locked and accessible through the housekeeper, who is lovely and helpful. There’s also a friendly and knowledgeable gardener who is more than happy to let you sample fresh coconut from the villa’s trees! We miss our villa and Anguilla already!

The owner Jeet was easy to communicate with both before and during our stay . He provided numerous dining options and recommended local activities which were all on point and appreciated .
