Inside Anguilla’s Luxury Real Estate Market

A new five-bedroom villa on Rendezvous Bay, one of the Caribbean’s most celebrated stretches of sand, hit the market this spring asking $10.5 million. At $1,173 per square foot, it is the most expensive home for sale in Anguilla through Sotheby’s International Realty — and a useful entry point into a luxury market that has quietly become one of the more expensive in the region.

On the same 35-square-mile island, one buyer can pay $1,173 per square foot for a new villa on Rendezvous Bay. Another can pay $194 — for an 11,000-square-foot estate ten miles up the coast in Island Harbour. The roughly 6x spread between Anguilla’s most and least expensive listings, drawn from the 22 properties currently for sale through Sotheby’s International Realty, is the clearest single data point in a market that has long been opaque even to the buyers shopping it.
