History
Cap Juluca opened in 1988, named for the Arawak rainbow spirit Juluca, whose image appears as a petroglyph in a nearby cavern dated to approximately 3300 BC — one of the earliest Amerindian sites in Anguilla. The hotel began with Pimms Restaurant and three villas and grew into a collection of Moorish-inspired whitewashed villas along Maundays Bay. Extensive renovations under Belmond ownership modernised all 23 villas while preserving the distinctive Moorish architecture and the signature limestone elements — floor tiles and tabletops quarried from the same cliffs bearing Arawak carvings.
The setting
Spreads across two crescent-shaped coves on Maundays Bay on the southwestern coast of Anguilla, British West Indies. Anguilla's beaches are consistently ranked among the Caribbean's finest, and the island is known for its world-class dining scene and low-density, privacy-focused tourism. 3 km from Devonish Art Gallery. 13 km from Clayton J.
