Family Overview: Anguilla

By Candyce H. Stapen
Anguilla (pronounced an-gwill-a), a tiny island of merely 35 square miles, offers the sort of creature comforts that castaways dream about—crab cakes with mango sauce followed by coconut ice cream. Along with hosting some of the Caribbean's best restaurants, Anguilla boasts the region's most beautiful beaches. A chic getaway, the island attracts its share of Hollywood glitterati, but also makes plenty of room for normal folks. On Anguilla, you typically don't get handed attitude with your room key, despite the fact that the island hosts several top resorts. With a population of more than 13,000, and hotels scattered over several locales, Anguilla is delightfully free of the traffic jams that afflict some Caribbean vacation spots. Read More
