The check in process was easy. The home was easy to locate and very close to the airport. The home felt private even though there’s other homes surrounding it.
This property is close to the airport, was clean. The check in process was straightforward. Michael was there anytime you needed him and the bicycles were the perfect means to explore the island we would return thanks, Michael.
House was big enough for all of our group to be very comfortable. We all felt very safe here and loved all the trees around us. The property manager was easy to reach and very helpful. Very conveniently located near airport and an easy bike ride into town. Highly recommend!

Excellent place
Or stay at the Blue Turtle was a wonderful experience. The bikes on site or super useful for us to get around the Caye. the staff was super helpful in answering questions, taking my son fishing, and even finding us lobsters for dinner. The pool is perfect for a relaxing swim. You will enjoy staying at this place!

Glad you had a great stay on the island, it is our happy place. Go slow!
Stayed here for two nights in late December 2024 and enjoyed the place and the location. In terms of value for money though, we were a bit surprised. We paid over 400 per night and there wasn't even shampoo provided in the showers, just small bars of soap. Perhaps this is in keeping with the local market, but we stayed in Placencia at a much nicer place for the same price and it came with toiletries, etc. We were also surprised by the early check out time (10am).

AWESOME vacation rental!
We wanted a place to get away from it all and do nothing.....and La Tortuga Azul was just the place. Clearly the best house on the island to stay, from the private pool to the friendly/attention to detail caretaker Michael, to the bike rentals (essential to get around the island), to the stunning and warm/inviting/clean house. We had two young kids and another friend join us, and everything was perfect. We made most of our own meals, biked into town a couple times a day for provisions, swam in the pool, napped and read books. One of the best vacations we've ever had!
Jonathon was very helpful and prompt with everything we needed from bikes to water! The pool was perfect! We liked the distance from downtown for the walking/exercise and it was quite. The closest store was about 5-7 minute walk. A/C worked great. The house is well stocked for cooking. The beds where comfortable. The 6 of us really enjoyed our stay! Try Mexican food at Agave, Curry and Jerked Chicken at Reina’s! See the Rays, Sea horses, and Tarpons. Snorkeling with Salt Life, Tony was fantastic! Just go slow and enjoy the island life.
There were 9 of us traveling, teens and adults, so we needed a big house. We rented the main house and the poolside casita and it was perfect. A little far from “town” but it’s a small island so everything was within reach by bike or taxi/golf cart. It was nice having the large 5 gallon water jug for both houses. Michael was very responsive any time we needed something. Nothing fancy but the house is comfortable and has everything you need for an extended stay. We brought a fogger with us to use around the pool area. Definitely helped with the mosquitoes which are inevitable with this type of climate. Definitely recommend.

Five Happy People
A return to Caye Caulker by two of us was nothing but wonderful. Had raved about the island so other three family members were anxious to experience it too. Not disappointed. Manager, Michael, was very helpful. Vacation house and pool just right. Only drawback were mosquitoes- in abundance. Last trip there no bug problems. Go prepared. Only one rainy day. Bike riding around island and the nightly crab dodge is a must as distance to food & drink takes some time. Worth all the time and effort.
We were originally a party of 6 when we booked but by the time our trip came around only 3 of us were able to go. This gave each of us our own room and privacy. Jonathan was on site when we checked in and he gave us a tour and assisted with the suitcases. He was super friendly (actually everyone was) and gave us the keys and gate code. He also ensured we had contact info in case we needed anything.Michael responded to our emails promptly and even came by one day to check in. We did end up renting a golf cart a couple of days to get around and having the restaurant/bakery practically next door was a bonus. We expected it to be further away.We did not get to use the pool as much as expected but it was nice and refreshing when we did. Overall it was an enjoyable experience and we loved that we were off the beaten path and had a wonderful vacation.

Very nice home; tough experience with island crime
GOOD: Four of us stayed a week. The wood interior is lovely; the house is clean, airy and welcoming. The pool is a big asset; otherwise it's a trek to go for a swim. The bicycles are great to tool around. The loft is cute, ideal for a tween/teenager. Property manager Michael is competent and friendly. The BAD: we were robbed on our third night. Burglars broke the front door deadbolt lock, stole an iPad and cash from purses in the living room, and -- really awful -- entered the bedroom where we were sleeping to take another iPad that was charging, two other wallets, and my backpack. Thankfully, they threw my passport in the yard. The police were unhelpful. It was clear to us that getting a police report would be an ordeal (statements at the station, written request to San Pedro and then to Belize City headquarters, and after months you MIGHT get a copy). We didn't see the point in spending more of our vacation on a fool's errand. But, no police report means no insurance claim -- so we resigned ourselves to writing off our losses. It's not just Caye Caulker -- two of us were in Hopkins the week before, and robbers tried to break in but we came back early and surprised them. To be clear, we've traveled all over the world and took commonsense precautions as usual. We've never had this experience. SAFETY SUGGESTIONS: The owners were kind enough to credit us for one night. The lock was replaced immediately, but it was the same kind the robbers broke, so we were still a bit nervous. We made our own "security system" and put glass bottles behind the doors at night to make noise. We suggest a one-way deadbolt lock on the front door (accessible only from inside). Future guests can keep all valuables in their bedrooms and lock the bedroom doors. There's a safe in one closet but it's not bolted down, so it's still portable --it should be secured. Motion sensor lights are a good idea. OTHER SUGGESTIONS: lights over the cooking range/sink, as it's hard to see what you're doing. The upstairs room has the private bath, ideal for a couple -- but it has twin beds. A queen bed there would be great.

We respect this review and think it is important to recognize that while Caye Caulker is a beautiful island, opportunistic crime occurs in this poor country. As owners, we have taken additional steps to ensure our guests safety. Not only was the lock replaced, but an interior lock was also installed. We also have installed a video monitoring system to watch the home and deter future crime. The house is equipped with motion sensor lights.
A beautiful property with a pool surrounded by lush palms. It is a property we would come back to and the property management team - Michael, Ceci, and Lambert are some of the kindest people you will ever meet and very responsive to guests needs.
This was our second stay at the house and it did not disappoint. Perfect location - near the airport (we flew in and out, which I recommend) and just far enough from town that it was super quiet (also recommend renting a golf cart for the week, well worth the cost). House has plenty of room so you aren't on top of each other. Pool is great too. Will definitely stay again.
This is a beautiful place. It sleeps 7 people comfortably. The water pressure in the upstairs bathroom is not so good and took me a while to get the shampoo rinsed out of my hair. The house seems a bit dark and could use better lighting especially over the sink and stove area in the kitchen. Lambert was our guy and made sure we had everything we needed. He brought us all the beer we needed and the big jugs of water, he even got some coconuts down for us and cut them open . He was super! The pool was very nice also. I would highly recommend this house.
