Experience The Heart Of The Ocean At Dolphin Villa!!

Great communication before and during the stay. We were welcomed at the airport and driven to the villa. The view and atmosphere was perfect. We loved the open air feel when the doors were pushed back. Everything is within a 30 minute drive, so being on the east side of Anguilla was no issue if you have your own transportation. Be advised that you will need your own shampoo/conditioner and body wash as it was not provided.

The view and the sounds were mesmerizing!

Our stay at Dolphins Villa was wonderful! We would love to return, and I hope we will! The best parts: The views are off the charts gorgeous! From the open-air living room and dining areas, you look over the private swimming pool and into the ocean, and St. Martin is there in the background as well, which makes the view at night prettier than just darkness. It is spectacular. The beach is near-private, and our daughters loved going down to swim in the waves. This home is the closest to the actual beach out of all of them in the area. Many homes in this residential area are perched higher up on the hill, and there is quite a walk to get down to the beach. With Dolphins Villa, it is a 1-minute walk down to the beach. We were calling to our daughters from the porch, and they could answer -- it's that close. The home is lovely with a well-appointed kitchen. It is nice to have a bathroom with each bedroom. The washer and dryer were also great to have in the home. And Shelly, the woman who takes care of the home, is a rare gem! She greeted us at the ferry and went out of her way to ensure that we were all taken care of. She is lovely! A few things to know if you stay here (and you should book this place before someone else does!): Apparently I am the first to mention this, but toilet paper is not stocked. Also, when we were there, the local grocery store, Best Buy, was not accepting credit cards. We had to prioritize... is bread more important than wine? :) I've been told that this is not normal, but it was our experience, so just avoid the problem and bring plenty of cash. US dollars are welcomed everywhere! You don't need to convert your money. The larger store, Proctors, did take CC's, fwiw. Another thing to note if you have kids is that only 1 bedroom has a door that goes into the main part of the house. The master bedroom is in a separate add-on to the main house, and the other two bedrooms only have outside entrances and are not "equal," as one is larger and looks onto the ocean, and the other has a small bed with no view. Just sort out who is where before you arrive! :) Our girls were a bit nervous about not having mom/dad "down the hall," but they quickly adjusted to the privacy. Anguilla tends to also be very safe from all I can tell. If you are looking for a "home" in Anguilla, as opposed to a resort experience, then this is it. Days here in this paradise are among the most relaxing I can remember! Thanks again!

The location of this property is nice and private but we were disappointed with the upkeep and maintenance of this property. The bathrooms in two of the bathrooms had significant plumbing issues with one always emitting a seeer gad smell and the other needing a toilet plunger everytime you flushed it.
