Best Sustainable Hotels, Resorts and Eco Friendly Stays in Anguilla

The 3 best places to stay in Anguilla are sustainable and all run large on site solar arrays, source food from their own land or local waters, and cut out single use plastics across the property. From Shoal Bay in the north to Rendezvous Bay and Meads Bay in the west these resorts are top rated for low-impact eco friendly comfort that keeps guests coming back for powder soft beaches that stay protected reef by reef.

How we decide the best place to stay in Anguilla

Each top rated stay in Anguilla is hand picked and checked for the sustainability features that actually matter on a dry Caribbean island.

On an island with no rivers and no freshwater springs, the first thing we look at is how a resort makes its own power and water rather than leaning on the grid. Frangipani Beach Resort shows what that looks like in practice, with an 800 panel, 370kW array of solar power backed by lithium iron phosphate storage that now covers roughly 70 per cent of the resort’s energy, so the sun does the heavy lifting instead of a diesel generator.

Because every drop on Anguilla has to be created, we weigh up water conservation just as hard. Aurora Anguilla Resort & Golf Club earns its place here with a reverse osmosis filtration system that supplies all of the resort’s water, the golf course included, turning seawater into a self sufficient supply rather than draining a fragile aquifer.

We also trace where the food comes from, since local sourcing keeps money on the island and cuts the air miles on every plate. Zemi Beach House stands out for its sea to table Stone restaurant, which leans on the day’s local fish and Anguillan produce so the menu reflects the island it sits on.

The resorts on this list of best places to stay in Anguilla have proven they are making a real effort to protect the island while taking care of its guests.

If Tranquility Wrapped in Blue has cast its spell and you are not ready to leave the water behind, our guide to the best sustainable hotels across the Caribbean gathers the whole region in one place, or hop south to the chic eco stays of St Barts, drift to neighbouring Sint Maarten just across the channel, and carry on west to the British Virgin Islands.
