Sunshine Shack

5 months ago

We stopped at Sunshine Shack and it is exactly the kind of place you hope to find in the Caribbean. Bright, colorful, and full of energy, this spot feels like the personality of Anguilla brought to life. Sitting right on Rendezvous Bay, you get soft white sand, calm turquoise water, and views stretching out toward St. Martin. It is the kind of place where you sit down and immediately lose track of time. What really sets this place apart is how interactive and personal it feels. Just about everywhere you look, there are license plates from all over the world hanging up, adding to the character and global feel of the place. And then there is the fun part, you are encouraged to leave your mark. You can write your name, draw, or add a message on the tables, walls, and just about any open space. It gives the entire shack a lived-in, ever-evolving vibe that makes you feel like part of it. The atmosphere is lively in the best way. Music playing, people laughing, drinks flowing, it all just works. It never feels forced, just a natural, fun beach energy. Food and drinks hit the mark too. Fresh, flavorful, and exactly what you want in a setting like this, served with that easygoing island hospitality. A table near us ordered the grilled lobster, it looked amazing. Parking is simple with space nearby, and you are just steps from the sand and even on the sand if you enjoy once of their beach chairs. This is more than a beach bar, it is an experience. If you are in Anguilla, this is one of those places you make time for and one you will not forget.

Busy, festive place. Free loungers. Front two rows fills up by 11AM. They begin serving food from the smoker grill at 12:30. Takes about 45 minutes to an hour to get your food, so order in plenty of time. Music can get a little loud. Lots of drinkin. Party boats come by. Fun for a day, early in your trip. You'll probably want to go somewhere more chill after. Lastly, some of the very best ribs we have ever eaten anywhere. And we lived in Texas for 35 years. Incredible.

This place is absolutely one of my favorite spots to eat in the Caribbean, outside of my homeland 🇯🇲. I stayed one extra day in Anguilla (pretty pricey) just to get the lobster 🦞. The food is absolutely delicious, the service is top-tier, and the owner, Garvey, is one of the nicest and most humble people you’ll ever meet. His staff know how to have fun, and the atmosphere is perfectly beachy with the most beautiful beach and view you’ll ever see.

Great fish and lobsters. The beach with the view of SXM was lovely too. The ladies were super sweet.

Came for the ribs, stayed for the vibes! Now I understand why all the locals told me to try the ribs at SSS…fall off the bone melt in your mouth good! Also enjoyed the grilled lobster and a few 😉😜Coronas! I think I’d book a flight to Anguilla to grab another rack of those ribs! Staff was so sweet and friendly!
