Gumbo Limbo's Dreaded Grape Cabana - Steps from Ocean, Free Bikes, Free WiFi

“The Gumbo Limbo’s Dreaded Grape” – the latest addition to The Gumbo Limbo property!

The Dreaded Grape used to be a cozy wine bar on Caye Caulker that has been moved to The Gumbo Limbo property and converted into a vacation rental. The freestanding cabin still has all the charm of a wine bar that includes the beautiful rosewood bar that now serves as part of the kitchenette. A private covered porch with a decorated wine rack provides the shade you need to enjoy the cabin’s garden-view.
This great little self-contained cabin is only a short walk from the village, yet far enough away to enjoy real peace and quiet.

The Dreaded Grape offers a semi-secluded accommodation experience and comes with owners dedicated to ensuring your stay is comfortable.
Ideal for 1 or 2 people seeking a tropical hideaway, the cabin is located just steps from the ocean thru a gated fence in the adjacent lot, allowing direct access to the beach.
The Dreaded Grape features a combined living / bedroom with queen bed, lounge area and kitchenette with fridge, microwave and AC. Private bath with hot and cold water. The private covered deck with table and chairs and an outdoor grill plus complimentary bikes and Wifi make this little cabin a terrific value.

There are many golf cart taxis on the island or you have complimentary bikes to ride. Also, it is only a 10 min. walk to the village.

We respect your privacy but are always available if you need something.

If you require more than one room, please check our other three rentals on the property. In addition to the Gumbo Limbo – Studio, the “Gumbo Limbo – Aria Kat Art Cabana“, the “Gumbo Limbo’s Go Slow Cabana”, and “The Gumbo Limbo Sea-Esta Studio Apartment” will provide for all the space that you need for a vacation with family and friends!

We are new to VRBO, but have many reviews on other popular booking websites (Super-Host status).
The vacation home is air-conditioned and features a kitchenette and space to spread out with a separate bedroom. Guests can enjoy a Smart TV and stay connected with free WiFi. The vacation home also includes a coffee maker.

A wonderful couple of days in paradise.

The communication and check in process was great, as well as the property being as described and away from the main drag on front street. The 2 dogs were very friendly. Ben was incredibly responsible when there was a minor issue with the lock on the door and it was fixed and addressed faster than any hotel could be. 10/10 will be staying here next time we visit the island.

What's not to like? Super friendly hosts, everything you need...in a quiet part of the island (which is so small that you are lucky to stay in the quiet part). We used the free bikes for all our travel round the island - walking was too hot.

Amazing property in Caye Caulker

We loved our stay at the Dreaded Grape cabana. The photos don't do justice to the size of the property in a lovely courtyard with an honesty bar full of cold beers. It's steps away from a quiet beach and easy walking distance to the centre of Caye Caulker. Excellent air conditioning and the cabana was well equipped with coffee. The bed was very comfortable and we loved sitting out on the terrace for breakfast. Ben was a great host and gave us excellent tips to help us make the most of our stay. Highly recommended.

Absolute Paradise!

We had the most amazing trip to Cay Caulker ever! Are you seeking the perfect island experience? Please visit Gumbo Limbo and the incredible hosts, Ben and Aria. Our little home was magical, so very peaceful, comforting and authentic. We felt safe and cared for . . . The compound boasts an outdoor tiki bar, lovely new friends to meet, an art gallery, two adorable pups, bicycles for your use, a beachfront around the bend, reliable WiFi and a location that can't be beat! We walked or rode our bikes everywhere. The hosts are there if needed and our 'place in the sun' offered a comfortable bed, warm water to shower and cooling temps when needed from the A/C and fan. Down the street is a church and local school; the sounds of an island life were just down the way. You will be very, very fortunate to spend time here at Gumbo Limbo, simply the very best in island living! Can't wait to return.

40th Birthday Getaway

The Gumbo Limbo property is situated in a perfect quiet part of the island steps from the beach at the anchorage beach dock. The converted wine bar is a quirky and cute cabana perfect for a couples getaway. Everything was clean and the property manager Flor was super attentive to our needs. The free use of the bikes made getting around the island easy. Air conditioning and fans worked perfectly and WiFi was great for making calls and streaming at night. Cannot wait to come back again to Caye Caulker and hope it won’t be as long to make it back as the last time. Ben/Aria were extremely responsive to our messages especially when dealing with a delayed arrival.

Wonderful little cabana!

We loved the history of the former wine bar and Ben was super helpful recommending dinner places. Our stay was short, so we didn't get to enjoy the bikes. The indoor "clothesline" was awesome since we had just returned from a 5 hour snorkel tour and had lots of wet things to dry out. It was so convenient to walk around the corner and enjoy a beautiful sunrise on the beach. Ben helped us get a golf cart taxi since we were having phone issues. Would have loved to enjoy this peaceful property - and the friendly dogs - a few more days.

Cute cabin in a great area!

The Dreaded Grape cabin is located away from all of the noise and tucked into a safe, gated area a short walk away from the water. I only met Ben, but he greeted me upon my arrival with his pups to give me a quick overview of the place. The cabin has lots of little touches that make the space very functional and gives lots of character. The space is enough for 1-2 people. They have an honor system bar in their lovely setup for guests to use, too. They gave me a bike to use for my time there so I didn’t have to go and rent one somewhere else which was a big bonus. Thanks Ben and Aria for a great stay!
