Paradise in the jungle
My husband and I absolutely loved our stay. Tina and Gary were super friendly and knowledgeable, and they had 2 very cute dogs! The place was just as described. Quiet, simple, peaceful. Loved having access to the kayaks. Good snorkeling and fishing. Kitchen accessible at all times. Drinks and snacks always available. Private chef for dinner. Super affordable . What's not to love? We will definitely be back!

Piece of Paradise
Gary and Tina have really found a piece of paradise and built it up into a lovely little resort. It is in the middle of the real Belize. Closer to nature than The other locations that I stayed. There were dolphins visible from the dock. The beautiful reef, teeming with fish was a short paddle away. The Belizean cook made creative dinners nightly. Fresh catch of the day was delivered by a local fishermen to the dock. The number and variety of birds was amazing! I’ll be back!

Awesome awesome awesome!
I loved every hour of our stay. Quiet, clean, relaxing, everything you want on vacation. Felt like home. Tina and Gary are gracious hosts and made us feel at home. I was so sad to leave. The only bad side is that I only booked for 3 days and would have loved to stay longer. Thank you again Tina and Gary. Ps thank you to Miriam for your great meals!
