Summary
Overview of Aurora Anguilla Resort & Golf Club
The Caribbean islands have provided the very thing travelers desperately crave amid pandemic-era travel: seclusion, sparsely populated beaches, and near-perfect weather year-round. Anguilla is a northern Caribbean island rich in five-star luxury resorts, boasting 33 beaches and a thriving culinary scene. The charming island is consistently voted among the top 25 Caribbean islands by iBestTravel’s World’s Best Awards.
The newly launched Aurora Anguilla Resort & Golf Club, formerly CuisinArt Aurora Anguilla, opened in December 2021 under new ownership by Olympus Ventures, adding to the island’s appeal for future travel.
Resort Features and Amenities
The re-imagined resort sits on the idyllic white-sand beaches of Rendezvous Bay and features world-class amenities, including:
- Seven restaurants and bars
- An 18-hole Greg Norman Signature Design golf course, debuting this year
- A holistic spa offering relaxation and wellness programs
Moreover, the resort is exploring the introduction of a fleet of jets exclusively for guests, offering private charter services to selected U.S. markets.
As Simon Fricker, hotel managing director, indicated, “Aurora Anguilla is currently testing markets and flight routes as the property prepares to roll out the program.” Details about the charter service will unfold later this year.
