Aurora Anguilla is a five-star resort hotel in South Hill, Anguilla. Until 2021, it was known as the CuisinArt Resort and Spa.[1]
It was founded after Leandro Rizzuto, owner of Conair Corporation and its subsidiary Cuisinart, purchased the property with the intention of making it a private home. However, since Anguilla does not permit foreigners to build beachfront homes, he chose to make it a hotel instead.[2] It opened in November 1999.[3] James Rittenhouse was responsible for the original design while he was the design manager for Conair.
It was sold to Richard M. Schulze's Olympus Ventures around 2020.[4] [5] Salamander Hotels and Resorts took over management in April 2022.[6]
