I am pleased to add the opulent and magnificent Viceroy Anguilla to my Anguilla inventory. My first guest arrives in July but first I decided to experience Viceroy Bliss. A detailed travel log will follow in the week to come but please enjoy my photo essay from Day 1 and 2.
arrival
Set on 3200 feet of beachfront bliss Viceroy is nestled between Meads and Barnes Bays. Aside from the breathtaking views, the art that is displayed throughout the property is staggering.
Studio Plunge Pool
The studio suite is lovely with a private plunge pool and the sea below my room. The furnishings are comfortable and artistic.
bedroom bliss
I love Egyptian cotton and good bedding..Viceroy came through. I had a splendid first nights rest in this massive bed.
Last night it rained and the temps dropped into the mid 70′s. This tub came in handy.

Viceroy is a horrible property run by horrible people who have no interest in doing anything for Anguilla or Anguillians. It was built with slave labour – hiring Indians for US$6/day of work and then charging the prices they do for a hotel room! Never mind what they wanted for the real estate. This project will fail and it deserves to. The principals at Viceroy should be ashamed of themselves.
As a longtime fan of Anguilla it is a shame that you would promote this property. They have nothing good to say about Anguilla and only came to the island to scam people into buying real estate at over inflated prices. They brought in people who left after making their money. If there is one good thing you can say about the worldwide economic crisis, it’s that Viceroy has failed as a result.

I am not privy to what the workers were paid but know that they were brought in legally and were not held against their will. If they are selling at inflated prices then it is up to the consumer to decide. There are many locals employed and the morale IMHO is good. Controversy surrounds everything these days. In Antigua government officials sold sacred burial land to a developer…in Bonaire a hotel is destroying a migratory bird nesting area..the list goes on and on…. I respect your right to voice your opinion and thank you for reading.
