re: Picking the Best Carribean Island

Anguilla is doing pretty well.

-Shoal Bay East was largely spared, in fact it gained sand. Basically everything is up and running.

-Meads Bay is in decent shape. Frangipani is open. The Carimar never really even closed. Four Seasons is opening in March. The beach restaurants like Ocean Echo and Jacala are open. Straw Hat is about to open. Not sure about the Mallihouna Resort.

-Rendezvous Bay was hit hard. Cuisinart will be a while, but my favorite beach bar, the Sunshine Shack is back open and the beach looks great on that stretch.

-Cap Jaluca is closed till next year. They were actually scheduled to close after the high season for a full renovation after being acquired by Belmond anyway, so they basically just decided to get going on that early.

-The restaurants and bars in Sandy Ground all appear to be open or putting on the finishing touches.

The recovery has been amazing, especially considering that places like Meads Bay only got power back with the last couple weeks.
