The wide scope varies from the ultra-sensational that attract the likes of Brad Pitt and Jay-Z, to modest, cute and colorful Caribbean cottages. But of all the villas of the Caribbean, no matter if it's even a mansion with a marble floor, a negative-edge pool or plasma screen televisions (although, I wouldn't turn those down for the right price!), there is only one Anguilla villa that our family calls home. Tortue Villa of course! No, there aren't chefs on location. No, there aren't any state of the art kitchen utilities. And yep, you guessed it, no helicopter pad either! But the villa boasts a reasonable price, big and spacious living areas, a swimming pool, and has a great location perched in the craggy cliffs just seconds from Shoal Bay! Let me tell you, there's nothing like lazing on Tortue's deck, gazing out at the best beach in the Caribbean all clad with beach towels, beach chairs, beach umbrellas and beach-goers. And of course, the great big blue... clear, turquoise blue.
Could you ask for more? Well, I don't mean to sound spoiled, but my Dad and I had thought of something that could vastly add to the villa's valeur! Since Tortue is built on the edge of a rocky hill side hanging over the water, why not build a little promontory by the edge to catch some rays directly by the sparkling blue? Months and months passed, after our recommendation and still, there wasn't any construction (that we had heard of anyway). But then on another beautiful day in paradise, while my family and I were sailing past Tortue, we noticed the latest addition!
