Awesome Vacation Adventure!
Publié le 18 févr. 2024 sur HomeAwayWe had an excellent time at this VRBO. We were a group of 7. Staying 14 days. My husband and I stayed in the mini-suite on the ground floor that consists of a kitchenette, bedroom with 2 twin beds, and small bathroom. The second floor has a living room, kitchen, 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom. The top floor has 1 bedroom and bathroom with the most amazing views! The house and furniture are showing their age, but we were quite comfortable, and the wifi is excellent. It even reached the pool deck so we could stream music. It couldn't reach the ground suite, though, so we watched downloaded movies at night. The yard was beautiful and ocean front bliss! Lots of room to park the 2 golf carts that William arranged for us to rent. The dock and palapa are great for swimming and fishing. We saw small barracudas, rays, and Nurse Sharks (not dangerous to people) in the water off right off the dock. It was amazing! Fishing rods were provided, so we caught red snapper and ocean perch for supper one night. Everyone really enjoyed the pool - it's not huge and only mid waist deep but it's a welcome relief in the hot sun! The deck was great for sun tanning with 2 couchioned loung chairs to use. We used the kayaks to venture out in the water, but it was too windy most days. William, the property manager, was great! He met us at the airport with our rented golf carts to help us with our bags and dropped us off when we left. Communication was fast and easy! Just a great place!

Great spot for big families
Publié le 11 janv. 2024 sur HomeAwayWe loved our stay here. It’s quiet with an awesome beach front. Big house with room for our whole family including a toddler. The property manager, William is great. We would definitely recommend booking a tour with him. We did a half day snorkeling and it was incredible…nurse sharks, spotted eagle rays, beautiful fish. Would recommend this spot to family and friends.

Mold issues with unbearable Oder in master Bedroom, contacted owner fist day-Ignored messages.
Publié le 13 janv. 2020 sur HomeAwayCould be very nice if owner would fix issues. I had to contact Homeaway to get him to reply to me. He ignored us Trying to push blame off on me for not contacting a local person that delivered the golf cart. My wife and I slept on the first floor in separate beds for the whole six nights. Also commented that a quarter size speck of black mold is not an issue. Which it is much larger than a quarter. And one spot the size of a dime can be a health hazard. I Sent two messages to the owner while on property with no response. I would never stay at this property again! Owner had numerous air fresheners hidden throughout the top floor. No other air fresheners in any other part of the house due to trying to cover the problem instead of spending money to fix them. When you first walk into the bedroom smells like a musty basement.

Not sure exactly what was going on with this guest but he sure isn't representative of my Guest arriving on the same day prior to him ( 2 hrs apart) and gave a 5 star review nor the Guest that arrived immediately after him ( 2 hrs) that also gave a 5 star review. You can see these reviews on the VRBO website. (Ginter and Christian) How can two different Guest arriving before/after in the same environment not have the issues that this Guest is claiming. Could it be the 2 days refund he demanded and which I gave him on my own accord. (Guest is always right?) Something doesn't pass the smell test ( no pun intended). He did try and contact me in the States but I went to the Cabin with my kids for 2 days with no cell service. I asked him why he hadn't contacted my property manager William who he had been in constant contact with since his arrival. He refers to William as some "local that delivered a golf cart I tried to push blame off on" What was omitted was that this "golf cart delivery person" Is clearly defined on the VRBO website as William the Property Manager for my home and whom they met at the Airport and he had arranged all the paper work for a golf cart rental, shown them around town - restaurants, pharmacies etc and then drove them to my home helping them with their luggage handing off the keys WIFI passwords and the local Belize phone which I pay for the minutes in the event an issue should arise - like this one - to contact William. That is what I pay William to do for my guest 24/7. But with this guest he never once called William and informed him of any issues. I think the most telling of this whole saga is the guest even called him to book a tour on Sunday the 29th 3 days after they arrived on Thursday the 26th which by the guests own admission was the very day he had to immediately vacate the upstairs "uninhabitable" bedroom. Curiously on an All Day fishing and snorkeling tour with William 3 days after their arrival the guest never once mentioned anything about the so called "uninhabitable" conditions of the house nor did the guest in subsequent contacts. His claim of Mold is totally unfounded predicated on the fact I was there in early December (slept in Master) to renew annual certification and the environmental dept found everything in order and renewed my business license. As for the air fresheners VRBO suggest your home smell nice for guest using fresh flowers or some type of air fresheners which I did and my personal home

Great place on the South side of San Pedro - good for large groups
Publié le 8 janv. 2020 sur HomeAwayGreat place on the south side. It's a 4-5 mile golf cart ride into town at about 10mph (all roads are a little rough). Nearest bar and restaurants are within 1-1.5 miles.
The house is great, it's really setup for 3 separate sections. Water is WATER collection - but with 5k-10k gallons, we had no problems with a group of 10 people and only moderate rain.
Fishing off the dock varies. Small kids will love it if you use live bait and small hooks. You can buy sardines for bait in town, but the best bait (by far) is conch which is found about 2 miles off shore or can be obtained in town if you can find the right person.
The "mini blue hole" is a bit of reef / cave system located NE from the dock - it can be seen as a patch of light water. You can easily snorkel or paddle there. Many local fisherman would anchor there and fish - you'll need an anchor or brick if you're going to try it, but this is the best fishing spot near the dock. If you have conch for bait, you'll do great. Fishing patterns change with the time of day and what fish are doing at the time. I was also able to catch bonefish at a nearby public dock - afternoon when the fishing boats come in to clean their catch.
The neighborhood has an hourly security patrol, funded by the neighborhood association (you may be asked to donate). We were there for over a week and feedback was that we were on one of the safest places in the island.
Recommendations:
1) You'll be given the phone number of the local property manager. On my cell phone, I dial it as a simple 7 digit number with no international or area code. Properly manager found me immediately off the water taxi, but specific arrangements and communication could be better. Golf carts provided were "above average" against local condition. You really can't get around without a golf cart.
2) Ask for the "address" of this property. You'll need it for customs entry.
3) Gary - owner - I communicated with him via VRBO message. Communication was good, if a bit varied in response time.
4) Bring extra towels if you swim a lot.
5) Property manager picked us up brought an extra golf cart to help with our luggage.
You can go into town to eat, there are many open BBQs downtown during the day, restaurants vary - so you can generally get what you want. Groceries were expensive and for our our large group, eating out made more sense.
Property manager can arrange trips (try a snorkeling/fishing trip) if you need a reference.

Quiet stay on Ambergris Caye
Publié le 8 janv. 2020 sur HomeAwayWe had a lovely few days at this house on Ambergris Caye. William was very helpful, meeting us at the ferry with our rental golf cart and arranging a snorkeling trip for us. The views from the house are amazing and we all enjoyed relaxing on the dock, watching the pelicans dive for fish and the osprey pair nesting on top of the neighbors palapa. It was easy to take out the kayaks and paddle around a bit, although the days we were there it was very windy so we didn’t go far. The house is a long way from town, but we were looking for someplace quiet and this suited us perfectly. The stars in the night sky were so much brighter than in town. The property has everything one might need and we really enjoyed our stay.

Fantastic Stay
Publié le 14 mars 2019 sur HomeAwayWe could not have been happier with our stay. William was very prompt with meeting us at the airport and getting us our golf carts. The house was perfect for our group of 8. A lot of houses advertise as having all of the adequate gear for water activities (masks, fins, kayaks, fishing poles, so on) and this property had plenty of equipment...and it was actually nice. We also really enjoyed the volleyball court. We had one issue with an AC unit and Gary had his electrician on site within an hour, and fixed without any inconvenience to us.

Perfect for our family. William is amazing!
Publié le 28 juin 2018 sur HomeAwayThe view!
Some of the road was very bumpy. An adventure for young people, a bit hard on the backs of Grandpa and Grandma.
Our trip was cut short due to a family emergency back home but otherwise this was a very special family vacation.
William was so helpful and a pleasure to work with.

Very large and comfortable home with fantastic views.
Publié le 24 janv. 2018 sur HomeAwayGary's home was a perfect getaway. Very clean and decorated beautifully. Had plenty of snorkling gear and kayaks. William was available anytime and scheduled all our needs. The golf cart ride to San Pedro was an adventure ( roads are a bit rough) but lots of nature along the way. Didn't mind at all. I would like to thank Gary for sharing his home and answering my numerous questions.
