Anguilla, BWI (Vocus/PRWEB) January 18, 2011

Already awash in accolades over recent years, Cap Juluca has added more awards during the 2010 period, including a few firsts thanks to the dedication of the Julucans. Many Julucans have been a part of the Cap Juluca team for over 20 years.

  •     For the first time ever 2010 UK Condé Nast Traveller Readers' Travel Awards: Best Hotels in Americas and Caribbean listed Cap Juluca as #10. This is the first time an Anguillian resort has received this honor.
  •     Under the management of Cap Juluca, for the first time ever, Temenos Golf Course was named 2011 Golfweek’s Best Courses of the Caribbean and Mexico.
  •     Pimms received Wine Spectator's 2010 Award of Excellence.
  •     2010 Luxury Travel Advisor “Awards of Excellence” Finalist for Best Luxury Resort Hotel in the Caribbean.
  •     The prestigious Andrew Harper’s Hideaway Report 2010 Readers’ Choice Awards honored Cap Juluca as the #2 Caribbean Resort and #7 Resort Worldwide.
  •     Condé Nast Traveler: 2010 Gold List
  •     Travel + Leisure 500 “World’s Best Hotels” – 2010
  •     2011 Fodor’s Choice on Anguilla

Commenting on this list of achievements Cap Juluca’s General Manager, Gary Thulander said, “Receiving these accolades year after year and the achievement of adding new firsts to our list in 2010 can be attributed to the teamwork demonstrated on a daily basis by our Julucan family. Their genuine enthusiasm and excitement to welcome our returning guests and ability to make our first time guests feel at home is one of our greatest assets.”

During season, Cap Juluca’s guest list reads like a who’s who of the social registry, but with a staff to guest room ratio of four to one, the intuitive service is unparalleled. Its ambiance is intentionally romantic, with surreal vistas during the day, and after a breathtaking sunset, dramatic nightscapes of the twinkling lights of St. Maarten and miles of shimmering water shattering the moon’s reflection into a thousand pieces. With a ban on cruise ships, casinos and high-rise buildings, guests escape to the sun kissed sanctuary of Maundays Bay, offering anonymity for the affluent and known as a favorite hideaway for celebrities.

Insulated from the outside world, yet only minutes by air or boat from St. Maarten, Cap Juluca resort is a private self-contained enclave on Anguilla in the British West Indies, situated along two miles of the most pristine white sand beaches in the Caribbean. Offering a spectacular private getaway, Cap Juluca’s spacious Moorish villas with 95 luxurious suites and bedrooms, three restaurants, exotic landscaped tropical gardens, and friendly and gracious service professionals provide an unparalleled level of luxury.

About Temenos Golf Course
Temenos Golf Course is now managed by Cap Juluca and for the first time ever was just named 2011 Golfweek’s Best Courses of the Caribbean and Mexico. In planning the course, significant environmental efforts were undertaken to preserve and to enhance the island's natural habitats. Most significant was the renewal of Merrywing Salt Pond, an island landmark. Featured predominantly in the course, the pond's water has been reinvigorated, giving rebirth to its natural organisms. New flushing channels permit sea water to flow out of the pond during high tide.

Temenos Golf Course offers a golfing experience where sand, wind and water blend seamlessly with Anguilla's natural environment to present a golfer's paradise. Some of its signature holes include:

-- Players being greeted by a spectacular vista of St. Maarten and the Caribbean Sea at the tee box of the 390-yard starting hole. The fairway descends over 40-feet to a narrow, two-tiered green sitting precariously on the edge of a saltwater lagoon. This is the hole that Robb Report called, "The Caribbean's answer to the 18th at Pebble Beach."

-- Large sand dunes on the left and a saltwater pond on the right framing the perilous drive on the 440-yard 16th hole that plays dead into the trade winds and ends with an elevated green surrounded by water and protected by deep bunkers.

-- The drive for the finishing hole carrying the edge of the mangrove thicket in a vast stretch of saltmarsh that winds through eight of the course holes. The narrowing fairway ascends forty feet through rugged terrain to a narrow green carved out of the native shrub.
