Anguilla Condos
"By The Month"

Hi, I'm Yuki, Nori's younger sister. You've seen me with the family during other trips to Anguilla. But in August 2005, my Dad and I went to Anguilla alone, to buy some land.

(Nori had to register for college and Mom was too busy catching up work after a 5 week vacation in Italy. So just me and my Dad. It was a fun trip!)

Here's a picture of us on that 4-day trip...

This photo, with St. Martin in the background, was taken near some Anguilla condominiums that we discovered by accident.

The land that we were buying is fairly close to Ocean Terrace Condos, a beautiful spot with views of St.Martin to the right and the Caribbean Sea to the left.

My dad had spent several hours walking and photographing all over the land.

He left me deeply absorbed in Harry Potter 6 in the air-conditioned jeep, while he examined the property from North to South, East to West, and all around it.

He returned beaming knowing that that was the land perfect for us. Here's our view from our land...



We were leaving to return to our villa when we noticed Ocean Terrace Condos.

"Let's study the land from up there, Yuki," he exclaimed.

He wanted to take some photos from that higher elevation. My dad got out of the car to take his pictures while I stayed in the car to find the caretaker of Ocean Terrace, just I was reach the exciting climax of my new Harry Potter book.

My dad returned with a man, who we thought was a security guard. He turned out to be the owner of the condos, Ambrose Fleming, a very nice man. He even gave us a tour of the condos!

We started at the pool.

condo My dad looked so hot and thirsty after hours of tramping around on the land.

I thought he was going to jump right into the pool!

He really should remember to bring water with him when he goes out on his expeditions!

Oh well, on with the tour.

The view from the terrace and pool has some truly exceptional views...

the Caribbean Sea to the left...

St. Martin and St. Barts straight ahead...

and the Anguilla coast line to the right, as you can see.

Anguilla Condo View



We moved on to view one of the condos. All of the condos are the same, with one large, airy open room with kitchen, dining and living area, opening onto a large terrace. Each condo also has 2 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms.

As Ambrose turned the key to show us the room, I half expected it to be either a) empty or b) poorly decorated.

I was completely wrong for both of my options. The condo was fully furnished and with an excellent flair of style.

The kitchen and living area (the first room that you walk into) was extremely airy with magnificent views.

Anguilla Condo Kitchen The kitchen was fully equipped with all necessary appliances (stove, oven, fridge etc...).

The "great room" was extremely spacious and airy, with large windows and wonderful views.

And the living room was equipped with all proper amenities...

... including, of course, the all-important TV.

Anguilla Condo Bedroom The bedroom was large and breezy, too.

It had a balcony leading outside with a panoramic view of the rolling green mountains of St.Martin.

Just at that moment, the phone rang! It was a friend from Montreal.

Just kidding! (My Dad just wanted me in the photo.)

Next to the master bedroom was the master bathroom...

Anguilla Condo Bathroom The bathrooms were nicely finished.

Nori and I are both pretty finicky about having nice clean bathrooms.

These were very nice, fully equipped with sink, toilet and bath/shower combination.

The tiles appealed to me, attractively placed around the sink and bathtub.

Ambrose explained to my dad that you buy all or part of a condo. "Part?" Yes, he explained an option that is unique amongst Anguilla condos.

You can pay X number of dollars for the condo and then have it for a specific month for the rest of your life! So no need to worry about it for the other 11 months and it's always there for you after that.

If Anguilla condos interest you, either an entire one or "for one month a year," send an e-mail to my favorite Anguilla real estate agent, Jackie Pascher. She will be able to point you in the right direction.
