“The property strikes me as a quiet escape on Ambergris Caye, where the emphasis is on the natural surroundings and private beachfront. I noted the villas come equipped with full kitchens, making them suitable for longer stays and families, despite the distance from town requiring some planning for supplies. I think the on-site amenities like the pools and dining are adequate, especially the Saturday BBQ, although transportation is a must for exploring the wider area.”
