About this property

To the South East are the hills of St. Barth’s. On a clear day I can see St. Eustatius and even St. Kitts.” This excerpt is from Fire Fire by Colonel Henry Howard the last Colonial Governor of St. Kitts, Nevis and Anguilla, 1955- 1965, who built this Villa as his “dream home". He picked this spot for its privacy, and spectacular views of the neighboring Islands .This -of-a-kind home is a traditional Caribbean West Indies Villa with a modern but relaxed and comfortable feel throughout the home .We private access to the beach from a path only steps away from the house.! Upon arrival down the walkway you are greeted with absolutely stunning view of Sandy Hill Bay !
There is over 2000 sq feet of outdoor terrace and patio surrounding the swimming pool with lounge chairs and tables for enjoying relaxing meals and cocktails!This villa is truly unique because of the privacy and tranquilty of your own beach that is just a few steps away.We designed this villa to bring the outdoors in with doors that open up fully in the livingroom and diningroom to enjoy the beautiful carribean breezes and unbelievable views of the carribean sea from everywhere!!!

Disappointed

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. The refrigerator in the kitchen.was not staying vold which tequired us to walk back snd forth to the back refiThebeach chairs that were provided were i

Wonderful stay on near-private beach!

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!

Great relaxing family and friends place

Our family enjoyed our time here - the house is welcoming and with large common areas which make it easy to enjoy the company of family or friends. We were able to relax, read, walk on beach - while enjoying each other's company. The island shows significant recovery from the 2017 hurricane. As we like cooking together, the well equipped kitchen supported our activities very well. Shelly, who looks after the place, was always available to answer questions or fix things if necessary. Overall, great rest in a very comfortable environment and beautiful scenery.

Awesome home with amazing views

We had a fantastic week at Dolphin Villa . The accommodations were ideal for our family. The house is on a quiet beach and we felt like we had the whole beach to ourselves. We were greeted by the housekeeper Shelly at the ferry. We rented a car at Andy's which was right at the ferry and then followed Shelly to the house. She was very helpful in showing us around the house and then showed us how to get to the grocery when we arrived. It is a very short drive to the grocery. We liked being able to open the bi-fold doors in the living area to the pool and outdoor dining. The pool was very clean and there was ample seating on the pool deck for the whole group. The kitchen is well stocked and there is a gas grill that we used on multiple occasions in the evening. The master bedroom is huge with a porch facing the ocean. The wifi worked great at the house and the televisions were easy to use. There is also a magic jack phone there is you need to make a call back to the states. Each bedroom had its own bathroom and air conditioning . The beds were comfortable and there is a washer/ dryer if you need it. Thanks Carol for a wonderful week! Our kids are already asking when we can come back.

Loved the Dolphins!

This villa has everything! Great views, pool, easy access to a nearly private beach, open airy living area, well equipped kitchen, comfortable beds and a nearby grocery story. There is wonderful outdoor space with lots of comfortable seating. We loved our time at the villa as well as visits to other beaches and several of the terrific restaurants. Wonderful time in Anquilla. We appreciated the responsiveness of Carol, one of the owners.

The Setting, the view, the comfort, a 2nd Home

Upon arriving on the Island we were met by the caretake Mr Wigely. He had already prepared travel to the villa for our large group, which after a long day of travel was more than welcome and thoughtful. He was certain to give a good tour along the way and point out the helpful places we would want to visit to help stock our kitchen, it's the little things. Arriving at the Villa was breath taking, the house is gorgeous, it's open, it's welcoming, it's well laid out, and it's just fun. The Owner and Managers gave above excellent service, especially when a minor problem beyond anyone's control arose. They had it fixed virtually immediately, and well beyond my expectations. As said we were a large group and we all did a lot of research, the Dolphin exceeded what we had hoped for and I couldn't recommend it any more strongly to friends, family, and to anyone else who'll listen about my amazing vacation. There are many facebook groups that will give you the rundown on the place to go and see, and where to eat... join them. Be sure to go see Brett at Elvis' Beach Bar too. On a final note... tour the bays on the Gotcha too, and say hi to Rumple and Geno!

Great villa on a nice small beach

Prior to arriving we had to change our dates a couple of times due to the airlines changing their schedules post Irma and the owners were very understanding and accommodating. Upon arrival, we found the villa just as described and John was there to meet us and to show us around. This is our third trip to Anguilla and the first time at this villa which we chose because of the proximity to the beach. Our group included children ages 11 through 15 and the close proximity to the beach allowed them to venture down on their own, yet remain in view from the villa. While the beach will never be on a list of the world's best beaches it is great for a morning stroll with coffee and was good for swimming. It claims to have some of the better snorkelling on the island which is still not that great. The villa was spacious and clean and the kitchen is probably the best stocked kitchen we have ever encountered. The Best Buy grocery store is less than 3 minutes away which was a bonus. Anguilla is not that big so restaurants and other beaches were never far away either. The villa had enough beach chairs that we just left some in the vehicle for use at other beaches. The best test of service is the response to unexpected situations. We had a small issue when a water pipe broke and went unnoticed long enough that the pump emptied the cistern so we were without water. We noticed at 9 am and within an hour the repair man was there and before the end of the day we had the leak repaired and the cistern refilled. The owners and their staff on the island responded quickly and professionally and we had only a minor inconvenience. (The property has two separate water systems so we were never completely without water)
