Auberge Resorts Collection, the internationally renowned developer and operator of boutique luxury hotels, resorts, residences and private clubs, will unveil an all-new Malliouhana on November 1, 2014, 30 years to the day after the legendary jet-set resort originally opened at its iconic location on a bluff high above Meads Bay and Turtle Cove on the island of Anguilla. Offering nearly 360-degree views of the Caribbean, Malliouhanare-emerges after a three-year closure and a top-to-bottom renovation that includes the creation of 44 spacious ocean-view rooms and suites; an open-air cliff-side restaurant spearheaded by award-winning Chef Jeremy Bearman; a signature Auberge Spa; and a two-tiered infinity swimming pool flanked by private cabanas. Auberge Resorts Collection partnered with celebrated global hospitality firm SB Architects and Todd Avery Lenahan of TAL Studio on theredesign, which evokes the glamorous ambiance of Anguilla during the ‘50s and ‘60s and raises the bar for luxury in the Caribbean.
“Malliouhana is Anguilla’s crown jewel and the thoughtful details and elements from the transformation bring the hotel to life as one of the Caribbean’s most trendsetting destinations,” said John Vasatka, General Manager. “The revitalization has honored the historic legacy of Malliouhana, while adding layers of design, luxury and gastronomy that will enhance the guest experience.”
Guest accommodationsSet on 20 acres of prime beachfront that includes two white-sand beaches, the reimagined Malliouhana retains its original white buildings, tiled roofs and elegant Moorish arches. New structural enhancements strengthen the resort’s connection to the sea by opening up stunning ocean views. Interior designer Lenahan plays on the island’s love of exuberant color in the décor of the guest accommodations, which range from 720-square-foot double rooms to 2,500 square foot two-bedroom suites. All feature original Anguillan and Haitian artwork commissioned for the resort and expansive ocean-view terraces. Etched into the polished white floors are three interlocking porpoises, a nod to the symbol on the national flag of Anguilla.
RestaurantThe resort’s original Michelin three-star restaurant set the standard for gourmet cuisine in the Caribbean. Its new open-air Restaurant at Malliouhana continues this fine-dining tradition, but in a more relaxed atmosphere and with more approachable fare. Chef Jeremy Bearman, formerly ofthe Michelin-starred Rouge Tomate in New York City, will offer a selection of large and small plates that will feature modern American cuisine with both Mediterranean and Caribbean influences. Chef Bearman will bring his experience in creating healthful, sophisticated and ingredient-driven food to the kitchen and cuisine at Malliouhana. Locally sourced ingredients from Anguilla and neighboring islands, including some of the best seafood in the world, andherbs from the resort’s garden will be incorporated into dishes and highlighted on the menu. The adjoining Sunset Bar, where guests can enjoy live music and dramatic Caribbean sunsets, will offer rums from around the world and handcrafted cocktails. The resort will also offer an extensive wine list, an Auberge Resort hallmark.
Spa
Housed in an intimate Caribbean villa, the two-story Auberge Spa features tropical gardens, an outdoor relaxation area and four treatment rooms designed to take advantage of Anguilla’sbalmy trade winds. A spacious couple’s spa suite includes private changing facilities and a private verandah. In Auberge Spa, Auberge-trained therapists will employ natural, indigenous healing agents to create luxury spa treatments tailored to guests’ specific health, wellness and beauty needs, some using Malliouhana’s custom-blended bath products created from a combination of lime and clementine and balanced with the rich aromas of ylang ylang and jasmine.
Public SpacesIn addition to the resort’s two white-sand beaches, guests can enjoy the new two-tiered swimming pool, which features private cabanas for adults and families. Auberge Adventures at Malliouhana will provide intimate ways for guests to explore Anguilla and the Caribbean with experiences including watercrafts, island hopping, deep sea fishing, sailing classes and horseback riding. The fitness program highlights outdoor activities such as paddleboard yoga, sea-based aqua classes, beach boot camp workouts and more.
