Las Amapolas offers a spectacular view of the Belize Barrier Reef. Our beachfront casita is tucked among swaying coconuts palms on the sandy shores of Ambergris Caye. Once a part of a coconut grove, its now a peaceful tropical retreat just 30 minutes away from town on golf cart and a short ride to Secret Beach.
We invite you to relax and soak up the sun at Las Amapolas, where you can enjoy the beach views from your casita. For swimming, we recommend taking a trip to Secret Beach for the best experience.
P.S.
You may occasionally notice sargassum on the shoreline, a natural occurrence caused by seasonal ocean currents and seasonal shifting of currents and weather patterns.
Other things to note:
Power Outages: Power interruption can occasionally occur on Ambergris Caye. At Las Amapolas, we do our best to ensure you remain comfortable during these moments.
*Water remains available even when the power is off.
*Power is typically restored within a few hours by the Belize Electricity Limited, the island's electricity provider.
Life by the Sea:
"Being just steps from the sea, the salt air is part of everyday life here. While we carefully maintain the unit clean, some metal items show natural signs of coastal wear. This is common for true beachfront homes and part of their authentic charm."
The road to Las Amapolas can be BUMPY at some areas.

Great stay. Wonderful setting. Just be aware the kitchen area is small and the room itself does not have much storage space for luggage and gear - but hey, all you need here is a few shorts and t shirts right.

Thank you for the review. Glad to hear that you enjoyed your stay at Las Amapolas.
We had a lovely 2-week stay at Las Amapolas. The room and property was clean, comfortable, and in a great location. It was very peaceful. Gach is a very attentive host - he was very welcoming and informative. Our room had everything we needed for our stay. We loved waking up to beautiful Caribbean sunrises! We’d happily stay here again and highly recommend it.

Thank you for taking time to write the beautiful review of Las Amapolas. Happy New Year!
Such a great little place to stay! I loved loved how quiet it was! Gach is an amazing host. My flights were delayed and he had no issues accommodating and being helpful! That sunrise and that view is just amazing.
The place and host were great. The location currently was a bit far from all our activities. The road to the location was in far worse shape than last year. Therefore, we moved closer to town after two days and could not recover any costs.

Gach was excellent! We were able to get an earlier flight into San Pedro and he was able to accommodate us by meeting us with our golf cart 3 hours early. Thanks to "ROCKS golf carts" for the reliable cart, directions and lunch suggestions. Also, thanks to Thomas and Jules for an excellent fishing/snorkling trip, which was the highlight of our trip.

Thank you for your great review of our place. Happy to know that you enjoyed your stay with us. Always welcome to come visit us again.
Overall a great stay with a couple issues. Kitchenette could use a better hotplate. There also is no television in the room. WiFi was good, area is quiet but entrance from the street could be improved. Had a great time though!! We will be back!!
This place is so amazing , remote , quiet , snorkelling off the pier and a private boat tour available from the dock. This unit has a large sized fridge and newly installed daybed on the balcony . If you are planning to cook. Please note that The kitchenette is small and too only have one small sized burner . It was perfect for me as they thoughtfully had enough dishes , cutlery and utensils to use . But it would be hard to have a full size meal as there is limited space but can be doable. There are some extra containers , lots of towels , bed was comfortable and the management company and the owners were so pleasant to deal with. It is honestly such a nice secured and private haven. Please note that is is far from town and you should get some basics to tie you over and a couple restaurants near by

We booked this property for our honeymoon stay and first time trip to the island. Our overall experience was 5 stars. The casita is great and located far enough from town for it to be peaceful and quiet. Thank You Gach for a wonderful place to stay.

Thank you for a wonderful review. We are so happy that you enjoyed your stay with us. Gracias.
We enjoyed our stay…the balcony and view were unbeatable. Gach met us the day we checked in at the residence and his team helped coordinate our arrival and a golf cart. If you are looking to relax in an out of the way quiet place, this is it.

Thank you for the review. Happy to know that you enjoyed your stay at Las Amapolas. It was nice meeting you and hope to have you as our guests again.
The room was a bit smaller than I imagined, but the location was nice and secluded. However, there is still plenty to do within a very short distance! The view is just amazing and the patio was perfect for hanging out. The host was responsive and the people on the property were very nice. Thank you for a lovely and memorable vacation!

About the host
Hosted by Gach Guerrero
Welcome to Ambergris Caye - The Caye to Happiness!
I was born and raised in San Pedro and proud to call this island home. As a true sampedrano, I love the food, the sea breeze, the smell of salt in the air, and the friendly faces that make this place special.
Due to my job my first cousin Nellie of Nellie"s Property Management is in charge of Las Amapolas. She is also a native of the island.
Why they chose this property
The land has been in the family for over a 100 years. It was a coconut grove in its early days. Coconut harvesting was the main industry of the island before fishing and tourism. The beach is beautiful and the Belize Barrier Reef is only a few laps from the shore. Crystal clear waters good for snorkeling and fishing. One of my brothers and I decided to build a casita to spend our free time and at the same time share it with tourists that are looking for a quiet place to relax and enjoy a peaceful vacation. It is a little piece of paradise on a sandy beach tucked among coconut trees. Naturally beautiful.
What makes this property unique
Las Amapolas is unique because its is out from town and still close enough to enjoy the charm of San Pedro Town. Its on one of the most beautiful areas of the island, Mata Grande, where sunrises are beautiful and just relaxing on one of the lounge chair or on a hammock feels like being in paradise. The sky is lit with stars at night and if you happen to be here during a full moon you will fall in love. The famous Secret Beach is only a fifteen minute ride away on golf cart. The property is still the way the Caribbean use to be - naturally beautiful.
