Carimar Beach Club

Fantastic place to stay. The apartment had everything you could need. It was great to have sun beds reserved for you on the beach. The staff were so friendly and helpful and the cocktail party held by the managers was a lovely opportunity to meet your fellow guests.

We stayed at Carimar for the first part of our stay in Anguilla to celebrate my 40th Birthday. We booked a Beach Front room and ended up in one of the upper units, the view is absolutely beautiful. You are just steps away from the water! They also put your name on your beach chairs during the duration of your stay which I really loved so you didn't have to worry about getting a spot. The rooms are clean and spacious, and the kitchen is well stocked with about anything you may need during your stay. There is a Best Buy, which is a grocery store, right around the corner so you can stock up on groceries. Meads Bay is a beautiful beach and Carimar is a great location! It is close to several restaurant options. Rolf and Lockhart, the manager and assistant manager were both wonderful and accommodating. If you are thinking about visiting Anguilla, do it! The people are truly amazing and the beaches are beautiful!

Carimar Beach Club exceeded our expectations and made for a wonderful family vacation. The 2 bedroom, 2 bath accommodations were perfect for a family of 4. We enjoyed having a kitchen, living room, and dining area. The porch area was secluded with beautiful landscaping. Although we were in one of the furthest units from the beach, it was still just a few steps away from our private beach chairs. There is nothing like waking up, pouring a cup of coffee, and commuting about 50 steps to a world-class beach. In the morning, we practically had Meads Bay to ourselves and very rarely did we see more than a dozen others on the beach. The staff at Carimar thought of everything! They provide beach towels, snorkeling gear, and whatever you need. Forgot sun screen or Aloe? No problem, go check out their selection at the front desk. We are not avid swimmers, but a few days at the Carimar on Meads Bay changed that! We explored all around, finding all kinds of sea life, fish, and even an octopus! Gentle sting rays swim right past you in the crystal clear water. What a perfect location. Next to the Carimar are a host of excellent restaurants. And if you don't feel like sitting at a restaurant (or putting on shoes), no problem! Check out Blanchard's Beach Shack, literally next door. The staff at the Carimar take care of everything. Even before you arrive, make sure to call or email them any requests. Having bottled water and a few other essentials already stocked in our fridge was wonderful, and Carimar also took care of helping us make reservations for horse back riding and a boat tour with Gotcha Garfield. They even coordinated a rental car for us, which was waiting for us upon arrival. We will definitely be back to Carimar. Please just don't tell too many people about this wonderful secret!

Another great trip. It was actually alot cooler and less humid and breezier than at home. This was our first trip in the summer and we will do it again. We actually would like to stay longer next time because its more pleasant than at home. But, we don't think we want to stay for Carnival. Too much for us. Great for those who like to party. We just want to relax. The island slows down a bit in the summer and hotels and restaurants are on the empty side.....BUT Carimar was almost full! They are doing some great renovations on the resort and upgrading even more. We still love having the ability to cook meals in our own kitchen because of the VAT (govt tax on meals) but we did still go out to some great more local spots, which was great.

When you first arrive on the grounds of Carimar; it is a tropical paradise. The nice ladies in the office Cindy Williams, Avon, Hermia, and both Lavernes are eager to greet and help you with any questions or concerns. Both my wife and I have glaucoma and our medications had to be refrigerated before our room was ready: No problem. The one bedroom, second floor condo was very clean, spacious and had a great view of the grounds & Meads Bay. Room service is provided everyday and we had beach chairs with our names on them. Our condo had a full kitchen, living room and dining room with master bedroom/balcony. I have asthma, and am highly allergic to tobacco smoke. This is why I chose Carimar's SMOKE FREE PROPERTY over the condo-plex called Turtles Nest. Turtles nest allows guests to smoke on the balcony; it is only a matter of time before that condo becomes a smoking condo--short trip from the balcony to the main rooms. I did encounter one middle-aged lady and her daughter who were visiting from Germany who smoked. After 5 to 6 cigarettes, I could not take it anymore and I asked her to stop; she did. This was the only negative aspect of Carimar. The Carimar has a cocktail party on Thursday nights; nice , friendly get together/meet greet. Gives you a chance to see people from all over the world and different walks of life. Carimar is also very close to different restaurants on the island. Nice Time On The Island

We paid for a beach view room but placed in a garden view room. Our patio was surrounded by vegetation which meant plenty of mosquitos. We could never sit outside. The management agreed that the rooms are not appropriately designated. BEWARE of this hotel.
