Caye Caulker is built for couples and backpackers. Most of the island's places to stay are cabanas, guesthouses and small hotels with a handful of rooms. That works until you are planning a family reunion, a friends trip or a retreat and want everyone in one place.
Casa Vista Belize is a beachfront vacation rental on the north side of Caye Caulker, built for exactly that. It has two units that can be booked separately or together:
- The Main House: 6 bedrooms, sleeps 20. Open kitchen and living room, a deck overlooking the pool, and a rooftop deck with ocean views.
- The Ground Level Apartment: 2 bedrooms, sleeps 6, with a door straight out to the pool.
- Both together: sleeps 26, and the whole property is yours.
What the group gets
- A 50 foot pool running the length of the house, a few steps from the sand.
- A private dock. Boats come right to it, so snorkel trips and water taxis can pick your group up at the property.
- A rooftop deck with views over the water, the place everyone ends up at sunset.
- Kodi Ireland, the property manager, lives on site. He helps the group get settled, arranges meals at the house, and knows who to call on the island for tours.
- A spare bedroom that can be added for an extra bed fee of $50 a night when it is free.
Why one house beats three hotels
When a group splits across hotels, the trip turns into coordinating. Someone is always waiting on someone else. In one house the group eats together, swims together and nobody has to plan where to meet. Grandparents nap while the kids are in the pool, and the whole group gathers on the roof at night.
