Welcome to Paradise
Tranquility Beach Resort has been awarded a Safe Environment Certificate and Anguilla has welcomed back international travelers with new entry pre-approval, testing and vacation bubble guidelines that ensure you have an amazing experience, including safe access to your favorite restaurants and island activities.
Now you may exit Anguilla’s vacation bubble after just 7 days if everyone in your party is fully-vaccinated -- defined as having received his or her final vaccine dose at least 21 days before you arrive. And as of June 20, fully-vaccinated guests will still apply for entry, but will no longer have to pay an entry fee.

Bubble Requirement Ends July 1, 2021
Beginning July 1, you are free to roam the island on your own, including renting a car. You won’t need to spend time in the bubble, pay entry fees or confirm health insurance. You will still apply for entry on the Anguilla Tourist Board's website and upload a negative rt-PCR test result 3 to 5 days prior to arrival. To enter Anguilla, everyone in your party eligible for vaccination must have received the final dose at least 21 days prior to arrival and bring his or her printed card. You won’t be tested on island, unless traveling with children ineligible for vaccination, in which case you may be randomly tested.
October 1, Anguilla expects to eliminate the need to be pre-approved for entry altogether. All visitors must be fully-vaccinated at least 21 days prior to arrival to enter Anguilla.
Getting Pre-Approved for Entry to Anguilla
Anguilla has done an incredible job of stopping the spread of COVID-19.
All travelers must be pre-approved for entry through the Anguilla Tourist Board's website, including providing a negative rt-PCR test result from a naso-pharyngeal swab obtained three to five days prior to arrival and proof of health insurance that covers COVID-related treatment. Once approved, you will pre-pay government fees that cover testing. You can start the pre-approval process right away and add your test results and payment later. A travel concierge will guide you through the process.
Protocols continue to evolve and may be different when you stay. Trip insurance is always recommended. Sint. Maarten and other Anguilla gateways may have different entry and exit requirements.
Vacationing in the Bubble
After taking the first of two pre-paid, on-island PCR tests when you arrive in Anguilla, you will travel via approved taxi to Tranquility Beach to wait for your results. Results are typically available within 24 hours. Guests who test negative will receive a wristband and enter a vacation bubble for 14 days (10 days if the virus prevalence in your originating country is less than 0.2% and 7 days if everyone in your party received their final vaccine dose at least 21 days prior to arrival). While in the bubble, in addition to enjoying your condominium and private hot tub, an array of onsite activities, our attentive contact-free service and the beautiful beach; you are also welcome to dine out at approved restaurants on Meads Bay Beach, at other resorts and around the island. Our concierge can provide schedules of which/when restaurants are serving in-bubble guests. Because of our beachfront location, our guests can walk or run along Meads Bay Beach in-between Frangipani and Carimar resorts between 7 am and 6 pm when beach monitors are on duty. Guests leaving in front of the resort must check in and out with our staff and can dine at in-bubble Meads Bay restaurants within the designated area with advance reservations. Guests in the bubble can also golf and charter boats for snorkeling, diving and lunch at an offshore cay. Anguilla continues to expand this flexible 'moving bubble' concept, with safe access to more restaurants and excursions being added weekly. Required advance reservations and transport will all be arranged by our staff.
After the 7, 10 or 14 days and a negative second PCR test, you are cleared to exit the bubble and roam the island freely including renting a car. Most restaurants and bubble activities are also available for cleared guests, but services are provided on different days or by alternative operators. Guests planning shorter stays may depart Anguilla while still in the bubble.
If you test positive for the virus, you will isolate in your condominium under the care of the Ministry of Health until a subsequent negative test (typically 10 to 14 days later). In-unit housekeeping will be paused, but we will continue to make sure you are comfortable. Our staff is available by phone/what’s app and groceries, restaurant delivery and medical supplies can be delivered. Cleaning supplies, fresh linens/towels will also be provided.

Dine out at Straw Hat, Blanchards, Blanchards Beach Shack, Cap Juluca and other participating restaurants and resorts or have your favorite dishes, groceries and drinks delivered. Work out in the gym, do a yoga class on the beach, paddleboard, play volleyball, listen to live music, take an online art or cooking class and more.
