With beautiful landscaping and gorgeous views, Casa de Suenos offers unparalleled privacy to those desiring a peaceful location amongst luxurious oceanfront homes.
Situated about a mile north of the Boca del Rio on a narrow stretch of Ambergris Caye, this private property in an exclusive area of fine homes and vacation properties provides views of the Caribbean Sea, its own pool, and a private pier extending into the lagoon behind the home that allows for easy fishing, watching the sunset, or simply relaxing. The house is unique in the Tres Cocos area for its private swimming pool and only pier extending into the lagoon. The house itself is flanked by vacant lots on either side, as well as to the rear, providing a sense of isolation and privacy; other homes across the street are only partially visible from the front verandah.
The main level includes a bright and spacious living area open to the kitchen and dining area overlooking the pool. The newly remodeled kitchen is fully equipped with modern appliances, cooking utensils, dinnerware, etc.
The master bedroom has a king-size bed and private bathroom featuring custom-tiled sink and shower areas. A studio bedroom is located below, with a queen-size bed, bath, and kitchenette. This room is easily accessible from the pool deck, and provides convenient storage for cold drinks and snacks.
Because of the property's proximity to the bridge, access to all of the businesses and activities on the island is simple. Within easy walking distance there are plenty of restaurants, bars and shops to satisfy your needs. Nearby easements allow for easy access to the beach just 150 feet away, providing the best of all worlds for enjoying the water. Golf carts and bicycles can be rented, water taxis are available, and even walking to town can be enjoyed, either on the road or down the beach!
Why spend your next vacation sharing condo facilities with strangers when you can have your own pool and privacy to enjoy without interruptions? Once you've tried Casa de Suenos – you’ll be hooked!

Casa De Suenos - Private, Pool, Pier, Views, Close to Town
Year Purchased: 2008
Why the Owner Chose San Pedro
We fell in love with Ambergris Caye on our first visit, in June 2008. Having traveled extensively throughout the Caribbean, we felt this was the one and only place where we felt comfortable everywhere we went. We love the people, the casual atmosphere, the slow-paced lifestyle, and of course, the weather! When we returned home from that first trip, we found we could not keep our minds off the overwhelming desire to return and own property on the island. This led to countless after-work hours surfing the web for investment opportunities. We soon realized the only way to achieve our dream would be to return to the island and view the options first-hand. So one month after that first trip we returned. We spent a few days looking at condo after condo, and quickly realized they all looked essentially the same after a while, there were lots of them, and most importantly, they just weren’t our type of environment. Our realtors, Amanda and Chris at Sunrise Realty, sensed not only our lack of excitement at the properties shown, but also our need to have a space that was private, comfortable and unique. We think that after your stay here you will agree that with their help we found it.
The Unique Benefits at this House
Casa de Suenos is not only a "house of dreams", but also a haven of tranquility. We love the peaceful atmosphere (no noise from passing watercraft and tourists), and a greater feeling of space than found along the beach. Our days on the island pass quickly, with frequent dips in the pool, easy trips to town for supplies, occasional snorkeling or diving, walks along the beach, relaxing with a good book, watching the sunset from the pier, and when we feel like socializing, a drink or meal at one of the many good bars and restaurants within easy distance.
Owner's Map of San Pedro
For many years home for us was in the country in an old farmhouse located on the border of the southern tier of New York and northeast Pennsylvania. Although employment needs brought us to Waco, Texas in 2010, we are not 'city' people, but prefer to have space around us and a sense of privacy and independence. Like most Americans, daily life includes 40+ hours a week on the job working for a company we don’t own. Many of our cold winter evenings have been spent plotting ways to escape, albeit for one week at a time, with an eye toward eventual retirement (although that is still a ways off for us). The attached photo was taken just a short walk from the property.

We were concerned that this house was not on the beach but all concerns disappeared upon arrival. What a wonderful place! The beach is across the street and easily accessible. We also found fishing in the backyard lagoon a real treat. Even though everyone said use sardines I found ham to be what caught a small barricuda. The pool is excellent and the house is very clean and well equipped. I highly recommend Casa de Suenos. Thanks for sharing your little slice of paradise.

A friend and I rented this house for two weeks and I must say the experience was absolutely perfect. The pictures don't do the house justice. And the grounds are kept in lovely condition by friendly staff. I would return to this house again and again, if I could!
Owner response:We, the owners, cannot say how much we appreciate this unsolicited review. We have always felt that with proper maintenance the property would speak for itself. Clearly these guests understand how much we wish we would be there full time if we could! Thank you!

I would give it six stars if I could...........the house is so beautiful and comfortable - truly a home in paradise. It is such a wonderful place, I can certainly understand how the owners fell in love with it when they saw it. The separate, spacious downstairs suite was perfect for our dear friend Karen, it was her first trip to Belize and Ambergris Caye and she is hooked! Having two private living areas is perfect for two couples who want to go on vacation together, but yet have their separate space. The pool was incredible - we were in it at least twice a day - I miss it now that I am home! The landscaping was beautiful - all the gorgeous tropical plants and birds were so relaxing and enjoyable. the house truly has all the conveniences of home from the kitchen to the beautiful tiled bathroom and shower. The Palapa Bar and Grill - within walking distance was so much fun and cooked Doug's catch of the day for us - what great people! The owners were so great and their recommendations for grocery, fishing and snorkeling, and restaurants were absolutely great! Doug caught barracuda, snapper, tuna, grouper, and Karen and I had an incredible morning of snorkeling - I even saw a midnight blue parrot fish which is very rare! We have been to Belize several times in the past, but have never enjoyed our trip as much as we did this time thanks to Casa De Suenos. If you want a wonderful, tropical vacation that will truly be memorable for years to come I highly recommend that you consider staying here - it is truly paradise. We can't wait to go back!

We stayed at Casa de Suenos for a week's vacation in May. What a beautiful place to go if you want to relax in the sun! The pool, where we spent most of our time, is pristine and very private- no screaming children or fighting for chairs like you find if you go to a pool at a resort, and when you are in the pool you have sunny skies and gorgeous tropical plants surrounding you. To get to and from town is a very easy golf cart ride as the house is not too far from the toll bridge - the "road" gets worse and worse the farther you get from town. The neighborhood was very quiet and there were other nice homes around. The house itself was great for having two couples. It has two separate units- a studio apartment downstairs with queen size bed, large tv (with good channels), bathroom, and kitchenette; and a larger apartment upstairs with a spacious living room, full kitchen (with newer appliances than what we have at home) bedroom, bathroom, den, breakfast nook and deck overlooking the pool. There were no problems with water (we found it to be good enough to drink out of the tap, and the water pressure was good), AC, electricity, smells or bugs like you sometimes find in the tropics- the house is obviously well taken care of, and it has some character. It was nice having the separate units as well because although we were 2 couples there together, we didn't get in each other's way and had our own spaces but still got to enjoy being there together. Near the house there are a few bars and restaurants in easy walking distance if you don't feel like going into town but want to get out for a little while, or just don't feel like cooking. And if you want to go out scuba diving you can ask to have the dive boat pick you up at the dock at the palapa bar which is very close. We were a little nervous before we went about not being on the beach but it turns out the beaches are not that great for swimming anyway, there is quite a bit of seaweed. I highly recommend this house!

We stayed at Casa De Suenos May 12th-22nd. It is an absolutely beautiful home and we quickly realized we made a good choice for our stay in Ambergris. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The upstairs where the main living space is located is decorated beautifully and provides every comfort needed. Spotlessly clean with top of the line appliances. It was a plus to have use of the internet. It is close to several great eating spots. Beach n Kitchen is a close walk on the main road north for breakfast and dinner. Sweet Basils to the south for a great dinner and sunsets. The well kept pool was very much appreciated after a long day in the humid heat. The owners are quick to respond to questions about Ambergris and also phone calls. Very nice people. We had some issues with the downstairs unit because of air conditioning, (workers in the unit several days trying to fix air conditioner) and after dealing with the management company for several days and not getting acceptable results, we emailed Jeanne from the house (who quickly responded) it was fixed the next day with no further issues. We greatly appreciated her actions and wish we would have contacted her sooner. We would highly recommend to anyone coming to Ambergris this lovely property for their stay. Cannot wait to come back.

We stayed at Casa Sueno in March 2009 for 10 days. This place is fantastic! Having a private pool is a real treat, particularly in Belize where beach swimming is not ideal. We had two couples staying here, and the seperate living spaces were ideal for privacy. This is very close to town, but on the north side of the island so it is quiet (and no cars!). A long walk to town, but a very short golf cart ride. We cooked several meals on the grill and in the kitchen and enjoyed eating on the balcony. The internet worked well and there are plenty of TV stations. Maid cleaned the house top-to-bottom every other day and the pool/yard keeper came daily. House is very well maintained. We have no complaints and will certainly stay here again.
