Beautiful and rustic

Property is beautiful and perfect for a very quiet, low-key, rustic beach experience. It was a bit stormy while we were there, so water was very murky and not good for snorkeling or kayaking. Definitely bring your own food and supplies, as there are no stores there, and eating out at the two neighbouring resorts can become very pricey, and they can be hard to book. Sterling was very helpful and quick to respond to all of our questions and requests, although we never saw him in person. Be sure to reach out and ask for what you need! Hilario, Sterling's employee was the one to help us, but the language barrier made it difficult to plan things at times. He did take us to Zapatillas and Coral Caye for snorkeling, which was a lot of fun.

Glamping in paradise!

We had the absolute best time staying at this beach cabana. The bed was super cozy, the outdoor kitchen was awesome (make sure to bring all the food/beverages you need), the beach has the most beautiful clear water and loads of star fish and other fish and we were the ONLY people there and had the entire beach to ourselves, the locals were kind when passing and the host was extremely friendly and accommodating and had quick response to questions. We did a water taxi out there and had a pick up and it was 160$ there and back. We wish we would have brought snorkel gear with us other than that we enjoyed it. Love that it’s run on solar and rain water! Super cool. Thanks again! Don’t forget your bug spray too it was crucial we did have some with us!
