Anguilla's main point of entry, Blowing Point offers a perfect blend of accessibility and exclusivity along the island's southern coast. Here you'll find a charming village, beautiful beaches, and convenient access to St. Martin and other islands from the ferry terminal. Blowing Point villas give you privacy and space right at the heart of island life, with many featuring full staff and chef service, making them some of the best choices for exploring both Anguilla and the wider Leeward Islands.
Unlike other Caribbean islands, Anguilla did not have a strong plantation economy during the Colonial period. This created a more egalitarian society and preserved much of Anguilla's natural beauty. As a result, Blowing Point has always been central to Anguillan life as a launch point for trade, fishing, and transport. During the Anguillan Revolution of 1967, Blowing Point was again a focal point, with Anguillans blocking the port off from ships to fight federation with Saint Kitts and Nevis.
Today, Blowing Point maintains its small-community feel. Rather than big resorts, here you'll find families and locals mingling at the dock and fishermen going out at sunrise. You'll also see a coral and limestone landscape that dazzles with its natural, almost minimalist beauty, especially on its white sand beaches.

Unlike a hotel, a Blowing Point villa gives you the privacy and space to truly settle in, perfect for families and groups.

Blowing Point villas are located throughout the area, including along the beachfront near the ferry, to the east by LockRum Bay for a more secluded feel, in Upper Blowing Point with sweeping coastal views, and in the quiet cul-de-sac area west of the terminal.
No matter where you choose, expect luxury villas that are conveniently located, with easy access to beautiful beaches and neighboring islands. Your Concierge can also let you know about the excursions, bays, beaches, and unspoiled gems near you.
