Bliss Villa is a 4000 square foot luxury villa rental on the Caribbean island of Anguilla. Despite the spacious living quarters, the villa only has two bedrooms, perfect for an intimate vacation for either two couples or a small family unit.

The master bedroom (king bed) and second bedroom (queen bed) each have a private bathroom, with the master bath boasting a jacuzzi tub. Each bedroom also has a shaded terrace that overlooks the 3000-square foot outside veranda, which overlooks the infinity pool and beach. The bedrooms are on either side of a massive great room with high ceilings that invite the Caribbean breeze. Furnished in comfortable cool fabrics with splashes of color, the great room is an inviting place to relax while enjoying the output from the kitchen. The adjacent informal dining room provides seating for 6.
