We spent 2x a year at Blue Waters Beach Apts. several yrs Apr 2000/Nov2000 Apr2001 Nov2001, do not remember the other yrs. It is awesome, the location is undescribable. A vacation only for someone to relax. A safe and friendly place. Met and made friends with local people. Cannot miss eating at Scilly Cay.Have many pictures I will post when I have more time

My fiancée and I recently spent a week in Anguilla in November 2009. This is the epitome of paradise! We stayed at the Blue Waters Beach Apartments. We were on the bottom floor. Our apartment had these 2 big french doors. Imagine opening those doors to the most beautiful tropical vision; sugar white sand, tropical flowers, palm trees and crystal blue water. There are 33 beaches. Because we were there at their down time, we were most times the only ones on the beach. The weather was perfect. 80 to 90 degrees every day. Not one bad day.

The hardest part of the trip was trying to get a phone # for Blue Waters. They prefer word of mouth and do not even advertise in the local map. But, recently they did decide to do a web site. A little about the apartment. Very clean and Calvin Klein White. We had a one bedroom apartment. King sized. Full kitchen with electric stove, frig with ice maker and coffee maker. The cabinets are fully stocked with pots and pans, dishes, silverware, even wine glasses. No need to bring towels. Daily cleaning service. They even put a pan of water at the door to clean sand off your feet. Ceiling fans in every room. There is newly installed A/C in the bedroom. Also, a small safe but there is virtually on crime on this island. There is a living room with TV but honestly, there was never a need to turn it on or to sit inside. Outside those french doors is a table and 4 chairs. Perfect for breakfast.

There is a feel is Anguilla. These people are so friendly. Everything is so simple and lovely. This is an island to relax and completely unwind. No one hurries. The highest the speed limit gets is 40. When you first arrive, if your accommodations have a kitchen, which I highly recommend, ask your cab driver to stop for a few groceries. Don't get freaked out about the money. It translates to about a third in dollars.

Dining is just the best, but fairly expensive. This is why I recommend a kitchen for at least breakfast. The Tratorria Tramonto is an Italian restaurant right by Blue Waters and is excellent. Blanchard's is so nice, but again very pricey. Oliver’s was one of our favorites, but all were excellent. Gwen's Reggae bar on Sunday at 1:00 is just special. It's, of course, right on the beach. Get some BBQ chicken and sit back and listen to the tunes of the reggae band. One by one, another member came to join the band. One played an upside down wash tub with strings held up by a piece of wood. This was the bass. Another tapped 2 Heineken bottles. But the biggest thing is, they just plain ole enjoyed what they were doing. Everyone danced. We were invited the day before by Calvin. He is the sweetie of Aunt Lilly who prepares lobsters in a small hut on Island Harbour and serves them to you on one of 2 picnic tables right on the beach. Lucy’s is not on the beach but I swear it was the best burger and rum punch I’ve ever had!

On most trips, I try to find some gifts to take back. Shopping is not something you are going to do here. So forget that pressure.

This is the only time in my life that I didn't want to leave from vacation. I fell in love with this island and its people. I recommend Anguilla to anyone wanting to relax with beauty surrounding them.

Stayed at Blue Waters with some girlfriends. We were looking for a completely laid back and quiet vacation and that is what we got! Blue Waters is a no frills, quiet low key place to stay. If your looking for room service and fresh towels every few hours this is not the place for you. We rented a car, purchased some groceries at the local grocery store and were perfectly content eating breakfast and lunch in our kitchen and going out to local restaurants for dinners. the beach here could not be more perfect......it was quiet, clean, gorgeous water and secluded!
I would highly recommend Blue Waters for a no frills, quiet relaxing get away!

This review is long overdue. We spent the week of our 10th wedding anniversary at the incredible Blue Waters Beach Apartments. Like other reviewers we appreciate having a fully equipped kitchen so breakfast or other meals can be spent at "home". I never mind fixing a meal when I'm looking out at the amazing turquoise water of the Caribbean.
I hesitate to use the word "apartment" because it's so much more like a resort suite. The rooms are large, extremely clean and include all the amenities you would find in a 5 star hotel. The best part for us was the privacy. The patio for our 1st floor room was directly on the beach, surrounded by palm trees and just steps away from the water. It just doesn't get any better. But if you're looking to walk to nightlife and bars on the beach, etc., this won't work for you. Keep in mind that peace and quiet are the objectives here. If you rent a car (very easy to do, when you make reservations, owner Carolyn, will help you out with details) you can travel easily to different spots on the island that might offer what you're looking for. Again, we were just looking for time by ourselves.
Our impression is that Carolyn or her brother are there to help you get settled but do not involve themselves in your vacation unless you need help or information. (Again, very much the way we like things to go) The wonderful maid (who always waited 'til we were up and about before stopping in) and the office manager will be your main source of information and are very willing to lend a hand. We had no problems to deal with but asked them for advice on restaurants, snorkeling spots (Shoal Bay East is a good place to try), etc. They were always pleasant and helpful.
Restaurants are abundant but do check the season. Some close for part or all of the summer months. We had no trouble finding great spots, including the Italian restaurant right next to Blue Waters. The island is small so traveling and checking out restaurants is easy to do.
I truly hope Blue Waters exists for many, many more years. I can't imagine we'll find a more perfect fit for much needed getaways!
