Anguilla’s Frangipani Beach Resort is expanding its reach.

Last month, the property acquired the villa formerly known as Seychelles, and plans to relaunch the villa in November 2015.

The property features a private infinity pool, along with butler service and access to the resort’s standard amenities.

The 19-room, family-owned boutique resort and the new villa are both located on Anguilla’s Meads Bay.
