As an alternative, you can fly into the international gateway St. Maarten/St. Martin (SXM). Many airlines offer direct flights from the US, Canada, and Europe. Use the gateway airport as your destination, not Anguilla (AXA). Then take a second, short commercial or private flight to Anguilla’s Clayton J. Lloyd Airport (AXA). Anguilla is just an 8-minute flight from St. Maarten (SXM) on Anguilla Air Services. Anguilla Air Services is also an ideal way to take a side trip to St. Barths for a day. Private planes of certain sizes may land at Anguilla’s Clayton J. Lloyd Airport (AXA).

Best of all, thanks to Anguilla’s intimate size and our property’s ideal location, when you arrive on the island it’s only a 7 to 10-minute car/taxi ride to the comfort and luxury of Santosha Villa Estate Anguilla.

Please contact us for assistance. Our concierge can provide recommendations on flights and arrange air and boat transfers.
