Caribbean Insurance Solutions: Anguilla's Go-To Broker for Peace of Mind
Independent insurance brokers protecting Anguillian homes, villas, cars, and businesses since 1996.
Why Go
When a hurricane is spinning in the Atlantic or you're closing on a Shoal Bay villa, this is the office locals call first. Born out of the coverage crisis after Hurricane Luis, CIS has spent nearly three decades quietly becoming the island's most trusted insurance broker.
The Experience
Tucked inside the Hansa Bank Building on Landsome Road in The Valley, Caribbean Insurance Solutions (formerly CIB Anguilla) feels less like a corporate agency and more like a neighborhood advisor. The team walks you through policies in plain English, whether you're a homeowner worried about the next named storm, a villa owner needing short-term rental cover, an expat sorting out health insurance, or a boat owner keeping a catamaran in Road Bay. Because they're a broker rather than a single-carrier agent, they shop your risk across partners like The New India Assurance Company, The Guardian Group, and Howden of London to find pricing that actually makes sense for a small-island market.
What to Try
Ask about their homeowner and villa packages built specifically for Caribbean hurricane exposure, their motor policies (a must the day your car clears customs), and marine cover for boats and jet skis. Visitors staying long-term should ask about MASA medical air evacuation membership ΓÇö CIS has been the local agent since 2007 and supports thousands of members across the region, which is invaluable if you ever need to be flown to Miami or San Juan for care.
Insider Tip
Come in before hurricane season starts (June 1) rather than after ΓÇö carriers routinely suspend binding new property coverage the moment a storm enters the box. Bring your last policy, a recent property valuation, and photos of your roof straps and shutters; brokers here can often shave the premium if your build meets modern wind-code standards.

Walk-ins welcome during standard business hours (MonΓÇôFri), though appointments are smart for complex property or commercial quotes. Website: cisanguilla.com.
