My husband and I spent a week at Ku. It was our first visit to Anguilla. I am quite dismayed at the overly negative comments here. This is by no means a run down hotel. It is a mid-priced, very small property that shows wear and tear at the end of the season. Superficial repairs like door painting, fixing chipped... more

I booked our vacation back in January through internet and website research....sometimes we prefer 3-star if it's on the nicest beach of an island. We love Jolly Beach in Antigua because of the location... It is similar to that except Ku isn't all-inclusive. You have to buy every meal and if you're familiar with Anguilla you know the cost of... more

I'm still undecided about Ku. We went during high season, in January of this year, and thank goodness it wasn't for a special occasion. My fiance and I love the Caribbean and we are frequent travelers. When planning this trip, I was trying to find a hotel that was really nice yet affordable. I did know that Anguilla is an... more

I liked Ku but i didn't love it..and if i had paid high season rates,I would have hated it. We arrived a day late..THANKS,USAIR,but the reception staff was very gracious. We were directed to one room but when our "bellman" entered it, it was OCCUPIED!! We hightailed it out very quickly but I kept thinking..Geez, someones else's room! They put... more

I just returned from Ku with my family, and I must say I do not understand the negative reviews. It may be that there is a major difference in quality between rooms in different locations. I can only say that in our case the hotel was perfect in every way. We were looking for a well run, low key, small... more

We went to Anguilla on our honeymoon from 4/7/08 - 4/12/08. We booked through our travel agent . She sent us via email tons of hotels on different islands. We chose Ku . Looking back now I can say the marketing is excellent for this hotel. I wish I paid more attention to the travelers reviews and I really hope... more

I must admit I'd been looking at KU for quite some time and was very impressed by almost 100% great reviews. Then along came a couple not so good ones. Well, if anyone is planning to stay here, go for it! Great rooms, great hotel, the best beach (as has been mentioned all over the web) and the most welcoming... more

I am sure when the KU was new, it was a fine hotel, however it now looking very tired, poorly maintained, we had no running water for almost a day , and yet we still had to pay for bottled water....customer service?? Resturant food, bar and service very average, with male staff sleazing all over guests. more

Ku is situated on Shoal Bay East,probably the nicest beach in Anguilla.The hotel provides very comfortable chaises and umbrellas beachside.The pool is picturesque with half a dozen chaises, this doesn't seem to be a problem as there is rarely anyone there. The units are Very minimalist, this is obvious from the web sight so not a great surprise. Bedding was... more

Ku is what is considered a "moderately" priced property on a very expensive island. On the plus side, the property as a whole is very attractive, the resort amenities were as promised, and the service was friendly and attentive. Ku is located on Shoal Bay East, touted to be one of the best beaches in the Caribbean. However, even though... more
