Malliouhana, an Auberge Resorts Collection, Anguilla, British West Indies

Low-key glamour, seaside sophistication and historic heritage come together in some of the most graciously sized accommodations in Anguilla. A bright, contemporary aesthetic defined by robin's egg blues and bright yellows invoke the island's unique sense of place, while expansive private terraces let you take in the glorious tropical surroundings.

Find renewal at Malliouhana, an Auberge Resorts Collection. The iconic oceanside retreat that put Anguilla on the glam map looks refreshed thanks to new beachfront suites and a smart, toes-in-the-sand bar, as well as a reimagined infinity-edge pool that seems to cascade into the sea below. The spa also has been expanded with its own infinity-edge pool, while all 63 accommodations feel bright with an updated, island-inspired decor. Go kayaking or kitesurfing and breathe in “om” during a complimentary yoga class, then dine alfresco at Cafe Celeste, where the multitiered design ensures a water view from every table.
