Sign for Cap Juluca, a Belmond hotel in Anguilla

Cap Juluca
Anguilla, Caribbean

There are beautiful beaches throughout the Caribbean, and then there is Maundays Bay.

A sweeping arc of impossibly white sand and luminous turquoise water, it provides the backdrop to Belmond Cap Juluca, one of the region's most iconic resorts. Set directly on the shoreline, its distinctive whitewashed villas and Greco-Moorish architecture appear to drift effortlessly between sea and sky, creating a setting that feels both timeless and unmistakably Caribbean.

Cap Juluca has long attracted travellers who value discretion over display. There is no need for grandeur here when nature provides the spectacle. Days begin with barefoot walks along the beach, continue with leisurely lunches overlooking the ocean and unfold at a pace dictated entirely by the rhythm of the island.

The accommodation reflects the resort's understated elegance. Sunlit rooms, spacious suites and private villas open directly onto the sand or overlook the sparkling waters of Maundays Bay. The gentle sea breeze, rustling palms and endless horizon become part of everyday life.

There are multiple chairs surrounding the coffee table, and a sliding glass door that opens to a balcony with an ocean view and lush greenery.

Wellness is woven into the experience through the Guerlain Spa, where treatments draw inspiration from the restorative power of the ocean. Beyond the resort, Anguilla reveals its many charms through hidden coves, island-hopping adventures and a culinary scene widely regarded as one of the finest in the Caribbean.

Cap Juluca's story is inseparable from that of Anguilla itself. Once known by the Arawak people as Malliouhana, the island has long captivated those fortunate enough to discover it. In the 1980s, the founders of Cap Juluca recognised the magic of Maundays Bay and created a resort that remains true to its surroundings today — elegant, authentic and deeply connected to the island's spirit.
