We had a great stay at the Vanilla Orchid. The house was exactly as pictured, clean, comfortable, and everything in working order. It was exactly what we were looking for, and I hope to make it back again next spring.The location is a little farther from town, but you can ride the provided bikes from one end of the island to the other in about fifteen minutes. We used WhatsApp frequently to call for taxis (5 USD each). Isreal met us at the airport, which is only a few minutes away, took us to the house, and gave us a helpful overview of both the home and the island.We visited Caye Caulker for a dive getaway and had a fantastic time all around.

Israel arranged a taxi to meet us at the ferry when we arrived which was convenient, then joined us at the property to hand over the keys and welcome us. The house is beautiful - even better than the pictures. The beds are comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need and the pool is clean and wonderful. We enjoyed exploring in the mornings then spending late afternoons in the pool. There are restaurants & a convenience store located nearby. We especially enjoyed a lovely dinner at Weezie's. We would stay here again in a heart beat!

This was one of my favorite guesthouses of all time! It’s so well cared for, and the hosts are so gracious and helpful, our stay was a breeze and the place was better than we even expected. 10/10 would stay again.

Amy’s Vanilla Orchid is a beautiful place to stay and can’t say enough regarding privacy and security. A welcoming 2nd home with excellent Wifi, A/C, hot water, well stocked kitchen, and modern-day furnishings. Didn’t need to utilize the separate casita as initially intended but certainly a comfy bed in the main house along with ample storage for belongings. Location: away from busy area- I like to walk but knowing bikes were provided was an incentive.Outside patio was lovely and front/backyards well maintained. Really appreciated the multiple sliding glass doors allowing in the natural sunlight and full view of the backyard, trees, birds, and specifically, access from the bedroom(s) to the pool.The pool is deeper than it looks! (not complaining) Nice to be out there lounging / water exercise during the day and more invigorating at night with clear sky simultaneously listening to the island (location proximity) slowly quiet down as the evenings closed out. Need to recognize property caretakers Israel & Mary ensuring smooth check-in process while also having their contact info to promptly address any questions or concerns.Lastly, highly recommend “RP’s ROADSIDE GRILL” across from the airport entrance for tasty and satisfying dinners along with an inviting atmosphere for pleasant conversation. Sincere shout out to Roberto & Pearla! Thanks Amy, for sharing your slice of Belizean Paradise with me. I’ll be back to enjoy wonderful Caye Caulker and what it all offers!
