JAXB does it for you, if your schema allows it.

Why JAXBElement<String> and String.class if you have a complex type?

Seems like the content simply can't be unmarshalled. If you include
some elements as contents of xsd:any, they should be unmarshallable
with given schema - this especially means there must be an appropriate
root/global element declared.
Otherwise unmarshalling will fail and JAXB will simply add the
contents as DOM elements.
See my earlier post as well.
Bye.
