Anguilla Caribbean Mansion Tour
Shoal Bay West

Welcome to the Shoal Bay East's far-Western cousin, Shoal Bay West.

This is an odd little crescent of white powder. Why "odd?"

It is virtually unknown to tourists and yet has more spectacular abodes, homes to more celebrities than most other parts of the island.

Let's see where we are on the island...

The red dot (left) is Shoal Bay West.

People tend to confuse Anguilla's "world-famous" Shoal Bay East, and its unknown cousin, Shoal Bay West, thinking that they must be side by side.

Even though they have similar names, don't be fooled. They have nothing in common and they are about as far apart geographically as possible (on an island this small)!

Shoal Bay West

If I could describe Shoal Bay West in one word, it'd have to be...

Luxury.

This picturesque, semi-circle beach has four Anguilla villas, three of which are high-end, super-expensive, "celebrity villas."

Shown above are Cove Castles. A Canadian billionaire (Bronfman) lives here.

And Denzel Washington owns this most spectacular unit...

In His Window?

And good news (if you can afford it)! Cove Castles rents some of the smaller, still very luxurious units.

Another favorite of the jet set is Altamer, truly magnificent castles in the sand. It is also home to one of Anguilla's five-star restaurants (they have the best "luxury breakfast" on Anguilla!).

Altamer

There is one magnificent privately owned mansion on Shoal Bay West, formerly owned by actor Chuck Norris.

I don't know who owns it now. (If you do please click here to let me know.

I doubt if it's for rent, but anything has a price, I guess. Can you imagine daydreaming on the terrace, gazing out at the beauty of St. Martin, nestled amongst the Cove Castles and Altamer.

You go for a walk on the beach and...

"Hi Denzel!"

And just in case that's a bit of reach financially, there is one reasonable option on this beach.

Blue Waters on Anguilla

Situated between Cove Castles and Altamer, it's a laid back beach hotel. Their units open right onto the beach, soft sand at your doorstep, and the Caribbean Sea just steps away.

Jackie can tell you more about this or any other Anguilla villa.
