In the latest step for Anguilla’s comeback from Hurricane Irma, its hottest hotel is reopening this week.

The luxe Zemi Beach House on Anguilla’s Shoal Bay Beach reopens Feb. 15, the first luxury hotel to reopen on the island.

Zemi Beach House has a collection of 65 rooms, including superior rooms, premium rooms and one, two and three-bedroom penthouse suites.

Amenities range from 24-hour room service and bluetooth sound systoms to Malin + Goetz bath amenities and Frette premium linens, among others.

When it debuted in 2016, it immediately caused waves in the Caribbean hotel industry, thanks to its sleek design, creative food and beverage and one of the region’s top spas.

It was all good enough to take home the crown as the Caribbean’s best new hotel in Caribbean Journal’s Caribbean Travel Awards in 2016.

Zemi Beach House is also offering a special “welcome back” promotion, including complimentary nights and a complimentary daily full American buffet breakfast.
