About this resort

Nestled in Corozal District, this attractive resort for $359 per night is a fantastic choice for your next vacation. It's all about the ocean views! This 2150 square foot, two-level island penthouse is on the third and fourth floors of a four-story building, and has five spacious, private balconies. You'll have bird's eye, panoramic views of the Mesoamerican barrier reef and the lush Belizean jungle from the highest point in the quiet, peaceful resort. There are three bedrooms and three bathrooms. The fourth-floor master suite has a vaulted ceiling, a large en-suite bathroom with walk-in shower, and a separate office space with its own ocean view. The three adjoining master balconies have comfortable outdoor chairs, a dining area, and views in every direction. The second and third bedrooms are on the first floor of the condo unit (third floor of the building). Each room has a comfortable king-sized bed, a large en-suite bathroom, balcony access and breath-taking ocean views. Each bedroom has its own air conditioner for individual temperature control. There's an open-concept kitchen/dining/living area, with ten-foot ceilings and spectacular ocean views. The nicely-equipped kitchen has granite counter tops and stainless steel appliances, and plenty of cooking basics. The huge mahogany dining table is perfect for family meals, card games and group gatherings. The futon sofa in the living room folds down into a comfortable bed for the kids or extra guests. The oceanfront main level balcony has comfortable Adirondack chairs, a lounger, and a second outdoor dining set, where you can have coffee at sunrise or sip your favorite beverage under the moon. The back balcony is covered and private. This vacation rental overlooks a white-sand beach, and the second-largest barrier reef in the world. One of the best dive spots on the island, Mexico Rocks Marine Reserve, is nearby. You can take out a kayak or paddle board, and snorkel on your own in front of the resort. Alternatively, you can explore the reef with a PADI-certified dive shop, which will pick you up at the dock just outside the rental. The tour shop can take you diving, snorkeling, deep sea fishing, and sailing. Or, they can take you to the mainland to see the Mayan ruins, or go cave-tubing, zip-lining, or horseback riding. You can swim with tame nurse sharks and rays, watch parrot fish nibble on coral, or dive the famous Blue Hole. You can even boat through the channel that separates this Belizean island from Mexico, and look for manatees! You’ll see sting rays, sea turtles, starfish, dolphins and other marine life, right in the “front yard.” There are tropical birds, fun iguanas, and other exotic wildlife nearby. You can walk the secluded beach, collecting conch shells and sea beans to take home. When you’re ready to socialize you’ll meet like-minded adventurers from all over the world at the resort’s fun pool-side tiki bar. The on-site restaurant, Gem, makes everything from five-star meals to indulgent bar snacks and comfort food. They will serve at the pool, or deliver to your room. Their pizza is delicious! The resort amenities include complementary kayaks, paddle boards, bicycles, and snorkel gear. There are three small pools, perfect for lounging with a fruity umbrella drink. There are indoor and outdoor games, as well as DVDs and books. There is free wifi in the condo unit, and on the resort grounds. We have an Amazon Firestick for streaming movies and news, and there is a DVD player. This rental is about a 30-minute golf cart ride from San Pedro Town, where you can do your shopping and hunt for souvenirs. Along the way, there are plenty of restaurants, bars and attractions to see. There is even a casino at one of the resorts to the south. Yes, the road North is rustic and, in places, bumpy, but that's half the fun! Stop along the way for drinks or a snack, and you'll appreciate the adventure that much more. There are endless things to do. You can float in inner tubes at bars, swim in the crystal clear waters of Secret Beach, explore the jungle or drive a golf cart north along the beach until you reach the spot where the reef meets the land. I truly believe that the salt air, sun and beautiful breeze will make you fall in love with Belize!

We arrived to relax, dive, and see the island. We accomplished all three. The restaurant was had the best food, great choices, and just wonderful. Easy to dive, the dive shops picked us up at the resort. Golf cart rental was also easy :-)

I reserved this property as a luxury, relaxing, fun getaway for my birthday. There were three other ladies & me (all 40+). Upon arriving at the "resort" I was immediately taken aback. Ultimately, we checked in around 4pm and checked out for a more suitable luxury experience elsewhere at 9pm the same night. Note: It was Sunday evening and there was not 24hr staffing. This "resort" was all but abandoned. Walking to the unit we were attacked by mosquitos. Upon initial entry to the unit things appeared to be as listed. Once we tried to get settled in it was another story. Over 15 years of using VRBO and this property was by far the most disappointing. Some of the appliances were rusted, the outdoor furniture was rusted and worn and needs to be replaced. There was patch work that was done that had not been repainted. We had issues with the A/C units only working intermittently and the microwave had no power (we were ultimately informed that a breaker had tripped). The comforter in the master bedroom had stains on it (housekeeping did come replace it quickly). The shower in one of the guest bedrooms did not get hot and the shower water was EXTREMELY salty with an odor that resembled sewage. One of my guests was on her bed and kept saying she felt like something was crawling on her. Initially we couldn't figure out what it was and then we saw these tiny ants. Now, 3 weeks later and VRBO says because I chose to leave these conditions no refund can be issued. I would not recommend.

We didn't know what to expect on our first trip to Belize but overall we had a terrific time. Our condo was just as advertised, the staff was extremely friendly and helpful. Would definitely stay again. Location was further from town than we imagined, even though it was mentioned in the ad. Would recommend to friends.

We stayed for a week with grown children and 2 grandchildren, 3 and 7 during US Feb. school vacation week. The condo was lovely with everything we needed and lovely views. The wind was so strong the first 3 days we could not sit on the beautiful decks nor use kayaks or take boat excursions. Even the beach was too windy. We used the pools that were set back on the resort. Loved the happy hours. So we went to Secret Beach. Bit far out for golf carting everywhere. Water taxi would be great which I heard is a possibility for the future. Felt very safe and secure. Staff were great, especially Gian.

We stayed 6 nights in mid-Feb. 2023. The view from the unit of the beach and ocean is beautiful. All pictures in the listing give you an accurate feel for the property. Bedrooms are spacious. Because it is 10 miles from San Pedro it should appeal to anyone looking for a peaceful place to vacation. My only caution is to consider the dexterity of anyone intending to use the upper floor. Because, as shown by the picture, the spiral staircase is narrow. An earlier review mentioned leaking from the roof and an odor. We had neither during our stay.

Had several issues. Rain dripping in from ceiling several days starting on Tuesday till Friday, even twice onto mattress. Management didn't resolve the issue until the day before we left. Rain poured in from one window upstairs onto the floor. Also in one of the showers the handle broke off with water was running and wouldn't shut off, called management again. The microwave, stove and tea kettle didn't work, electricity wouldn't work on those circuits. Management came and tripped the circuits, they went out again, we tried tripping them, but wouldn't work. We had to move microwave into the living area to plug in to get to work. We did contact Jeanette about our issues she said she would contact management. The showers both had a sewagy smell to them when running them. Overall, we would not choose this place again due to the amount Had several issues.

The showers both had a sewagy smell to them when running the water. Management said someone forgot to put chlorine tablets into the water system. They brought us a liquid to add to the drains which smelled like deodorant in public places. The thatched roofs shown on the property pictures were removed, some replaced with blue steel roofing. Our condo didn't have the replaced roofing which probably added to the cause of the rain issues. Overall, we would not choose this place again due to the amount of time we had to put in contacting management which took away from celebrating our 50th Wedding Anniversary with our children and grandchildren.

Jeanetts's property is beautiful, even better than you can tell from the photos. Her rental manual was so thorough and helped us prepare for a great trip. It was the perfect place for our multigenerational family. The staff helped us with our boat and taxi transfers and were very easy to correspond with when a flight delay changed our schedules. Everyone was incredibly friendly and welcoming. Gem restaurant has great food and drink! Order groceries from Lagniappe and you hardly need to go anywhere! We rented golf carts for a trip to Secret Beach and took a half day snorkeling/fishing trip. Belize is beautiful and so hospitable. Bring lots of bug spray.
