The beautiful island of Anguilla welcomes guests from all over the world, even attracting some of the most popular celebrities to its shores. Unlike other Caribbean islands, properties in Anguilla do not tailor to tourists looking for an all-inclusive resort. Therefore, the island is often less crowded, making it the perfect vacation getaway for privacy-seeking celebs. Anguilla excels at offering guests luxurious hotels, five star-dining, adventure and more!
One Anguilla regular is acclaimed Taken actor Liam Neeson who has been visiting the island for years, a tradition he kept even after the passing of his wife, actress Natasha Richardson. Neeson often stays at the Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel, Anguilla, one of the many five-star resorts on the island. Many of these properties offer spectacular accommodations such as private view ocean suites, private freshwater pool suites and private freshwater pool villas. Canadian singer Justin Bieber has also been known to take up residence at Cap Juluca, A Belmond Hotel when visiting Anguilla.
When Neeson is not beating away the bad guys, he makes a point of visiting Trattoria Tramonto, a gourmet Italian restaurant located in Shoal Bay West. There is nothing like a little slice of Italy when sitting on the beach to add to your perfect vacation.
