An exotic retreat set on one of the world?s most magnificent stretches of white sand beach, with every convenience to assure the ultimate comfort.
The unique architecture is reminiscent of Mykonos, and the 93 lavishly appointed accommodations have Italian marble bathrooms, and private patios with views of the beach and St Martin beyond. All this combined with excellent standards of food and service makes this an oceanfront paradise. A triumph of foresight created by Cuisinart, the name long synonymous with gourmet lifestyle. Few have been able to combine such quality and style with needs of function. On this gentle island, a retreat splashed with acres and acres of lush landscape and color, dotted with pristine white villas along the way.
The resort features an exclusive full service Spa where you can relax and revitalise, or have an invigorating work out. Another outstanding feature is the resort's hydroponics farm, a botanical oasis set in acres of lush landscape with over 37,000 exotic plants.
A secluded beach where you are pampered with home-made sorbets and cold towels, and have access to an array of water sports including snorkelling, sailing, water-skiing, and windsurfing. There's also a full offering of land sports, making this resort the ultimate in relaxation and recreation.

When you arrive at the airport first go through immigration and then pick up your luggage. As you depart the luggage area, a Funtime rep. will be waiting with a sign like the one shown above. The rep. will direct you to the vehicle and load your bags for you. A two minute ride to the Funtime dock which is located just around the corner from the airport.
Once you arrive at the dock, the rep. will take your passport so they can be listed on the manifest. Then you board the boat and take the relatively short ride to Anguilla. The boats are not crowded as they have a 12 person max. for each boat.
The ride is more expensive than the regular ferry but you will avoid the taxi ride to Marigot and the wait for the next ferry.
When you arrive on Anguilla you must once again go through immigration and customs.
A porter will come to take your bags. You have the option of saying yes or no. If you allow the porter to take your bags he will deliver them to the exit of the port to your taxi or car but will expect a "tip"
It is not a tip but actually a fee and he expects at least $2.00 US. If you give him $1.00 because you think this service is paid for by the charter company he will not accept it and demand a $2.00 tip. If you are tired and don't want to haul your bags it is a good option but you do not have to accept the porter and can carry your own bags if you wish.
