I would highly recommend the Cuisinart Resort or Cap Jaluca in Anguilla. These are 2 of the most beautiful resorts and beaches in the world. S - NE wind will work for kiting. Your girlfriend will be EXTRA appreciative when she sees the place
The quoted rates are high but I'll bet if you call you can negotiate a WAY better rate since travel there is way off

Pete M knows some things about Anguilla and I have a friend that has kited St barts.. (I hear both are pricey but very kiteable) I will ask
for more info for you.
PS- We really should have a file on this site of "Wife and Girlfriend-able Kite destinations! ! Real BVI would be one for sure!

Hey John or anyone else I am looking for a nice place to stay and

Martin. $400-$700/night( around a four star). Between Feb 15-Feb 23.
My girl friend will be with so I can't rough this one. Any
