Perfect spot that met all our needs. Had a fully stocked kitchen, bottled water, filtered ice, its own dock and pools, and bikes for us to rent. The staff was so friendly and we loved how Weezies restaurant was right across the way as well as yoga too.
Wonderful place to stay! The caretakers were very friendly and always available for assistance. Not only was the cottage spotless but the grounds were impeccably groomed. I couldn’t have asked for anything better and highly recommend.

The grounds were nice and had fun playing cornhole. My main reason for 3 overall is due to being in bottom unit. Woken up to footsteps early both mornings. Kids running, heavy steppers. Couldn’t get back to sleep. So stay in upper units would be my recommendation.
My wife and I stumbled across this property online looking for a place in Caye Caulker and absolutely loved it! The staff was super friendly the place has private pools and a deck out the water, beautiful grounds and even a bar and restaurant! We couldn’t have asked for a more perfect place!
This location was better than expected. The location was perfect and the facilities were superb. We really enjoyed being able to rent the bikes to explore Caye Caulker. Also, the onsite laundry service insured we went home looking and smelling suave. We would definitely recommend Palmetto Garden.
The apartment was as described, very clean, very good air conditioner, which is needed in the tropical climate. The pool was quite good. They had a nice little restaurant five steps away, which was also quite good and convenient. That large pier is an excellent feature, and even had Wi-Fi out on the dock. This is probably one of the nicest places to stay on the island!
We spent three nights here at the end of November 2024 and wished we had more time! The unit was spacious, staff were friendly and accommodating, and everything was nice and clean. We are considering bringing family back and staying in one of the larger units.
We had a fantastic stay at the Palmetto Beach cottage. It was very clean & had everything we needed. It was also a large spacious area! The large bottles of water were a perk. Being so close to the lovely pool & amazingly long dock was fabulous!
Tim & Debbie were ALWAYS prompt with replying to any questions we had prior to our trip.
We would definitely go back in a heart beat!
We were both very impressed with the stay at Palmetto Garden cottage. The staff (Henry, Nythiria and all are awesome), the cats (Max and No name were our pets away from home) and all the amenities were fantastic. Would love to go back in a heartbeat. The dock was our favorite place for a 5 PM cocktail. The staff next door at Weezie's were also delightful. Thank you, Tim, and Debbie!!!! We will be strongly suggesting your place.

Quiet and clean
Property owner has great communication. Enjoyed our stay in this quiet area of Caye Caulker. The unit was very clean and had everything we needed for our stay. Only had one issue which was being stranded at the water taxi dock waiting for the promised taxi to take us to the property (management confirmed via email but did not follow through) we quickly got over it and enjoyed our vacation.

Hi Chris,
I am glad you enjoyed your stay at Palmetto, terribly sorry about the communication breakdown with the taxi.
Hope to see you again.

My 10 yr old really enjoyed having access to the courtyard area where there were free yard games to play. Having bikes to rent right on-site made renting effortless. The rooms were clean and spacious. The futon (sleeping for 3rd person) is also the couch and it was very hard to change between the two. The futon cushion is also very shaped in the couch form which leaves depressions. Probably best for only one person. The open air small restaurant of the next resort is right next door to the living room/futon area so you hear noise in the early morning and evening. The food is delicious.An open air yoga studio is within a two minute walk and that was lovely to attend their classes. We loved being away from the hustle and bustle of the main streets located to the north. It was quiet and peaceful.
Overall great property .Beautifully maintained grounds. Easy communication with owners. Comfy beds. Fully stocked kitchen. Awesome dock. As stated in previous reviews, the cottage is quite dark but that also helps keep it cool during the day. The walls are a little on the thin side and unfortunately the family upstairs were heavy walkers. We downloaded sound machines on our phone to help drown out the nighttime noise. Even with that slight issue I would definitely stay there again.

We stayed at the Palmetto Cottage in Caye Caulker and it was perfect! We have 2 small children and the place had everything we needed. Kitchen was stocked. Plenty of towels and bedding and the quality of everything was great. The staff on location was so nice. Although the place does not have a washer, they did laundry for us anyway so we had clean clothes for the return trip ;) They also helped get the right size bikes for our kids and adjusted for their heights so we could ride bikes all week. We will be back!
Our experience here was absolutely fabulous with one exception. The unit we stayed had another unit above it. No fault of the people staying there but it sounded as if a whole football team was practicing up there and perhaps going to come through the roof. There seems to be very little insulation between the upper and lower units. Just a heads up for others that f this is the type of thing that can take a wonderful property and stay and the rn t into not such a great experience. It was annoying at times but we didn’t spend enough time in the unit for it to cause us any distress. We would definitely return!!
My wife and I stayed here for a week and we absolutely loved it. We felt safe and secure and had many conveniences at our fingertips. There’s a restaurant 10 steps from the front door of this cottage and extra water and Belikin (for purchase) on request! The cottage was clean and maintained and had a lot of privacy with the privacy shades you can draw down. You have to walk around the back of the cottage to get to the pool but who cares! It was fantastic and we would stay here again and again. Town is a short bike ride away and the nearest grocery store is maybe a three minute bike ride. We loved the pier with the loungers and even saw sting rays swimming around the pier our first morning. There’s a lot of Sargasssum (looks like a seaweed/algae) floating in the sea right now and it has an odor but that’s the whole island, not the fault of location or anything else. Only complaint was that it’s very close to the island airport and planes start taking off and landing a little on the early side so it will wake you. No big deal to us, though. Overall, stay here! It’s, affordable, clean and so fantastic!

Fantastic Time!
We had a wonderful experience staying with Michael. The place was exactly as expected, a little tight for four adults but again, as we expected. The bed in the bedroom was comfortable and you couldn’t even tell it was two twin beds pushed together. The futon in the living room was super comfortable for what it was, much better than expected. We had new towels, both bath and beach, whenever needed, and getting new water for the room was very easy. They were very accommodating to our needs. The room was also very clean when we arrived and the AC worked great. It was so nice to come back after a day in the sun to a nice cold room.
We rented bikes for the entire stay and that was definitely necessary. We used them constantly to go back and forth between our room and town. This was close enough to town to be easy to get to on a bike and far enough to escape the noise and majority of other tourists.
We spent a lot of our time out on the dock as the chairs were really comfy and it was easy to get in and out of the water there. We enjoyed hanging out there during the day and were happy to have a quiet place to hang out. We also went out on the dock most nights and there was security around at night.
We overall really enjoyed the island and can’t wait to go back. We highly recommend checking out Wish Willy’s for dinner, this was everyone’s favorite place to eat by far. We also enjoyed Dee D’s and Belizean Flavas for dinner. For lunch we ate food from people on the street and it was always good. We took snorkel tours with Scuba Sensation, Raggamuffin Tours and Carlos. We had a great experience with all three.
We will definitely be back some time in the future!

I am so glad you guys had a great trip, it sounds like you were busy!! Look forward to seeing you again.
Accommodations were nice. Quiet part of the island, but it is close to the airport. TV could have been bigger, but all in all, for the price, it was a nice place to stay.

Our Bestie Island getaway at Palmetto Beach Garden Cottage was surreal! We enjoyed every minute. The staff and locals are incredible! The property was clean and tidy! If you are wanting to stay a little off the "beaten" path, this is your place!! We will absolutely be back to Caye Caulker! Rachelle F - Wichita, KS
