So glad you had a good stay, and yes that sargassum is a real buzz kill. I hope you will return to Belize someday; it is such a beautiful country with lots to explore.

It was great to have you; so glad you had a good time! We will look forward to your return.

Anthony and Dana, our Belize property managers, understand these vacations are family memories in the making. The house, house keeping and maintenance are the best in the area. Pleased you in enjoyed your Belize home. cheers, doug

Thank you for your review. The property has been sold as mentioned in a previous review. I am working with new owners for a smooth transition. Anthony and Dana remain as the local property managers and are always just a phone call away. And yes Chef Dana will continue to be available for home cooked meals with a Mayan touch. Everything remains the same, just ownership will change. Doug

It was so nice to have you at the property, and we are glad it met your expectations!

So glad you had a good time! Hope you’ll visit Belize again sometime: there’s so much to explore!

Pleased you enjoyed our property. Our property managers Anthony and Dana are great ambassadors for the gentle people of Belize.

I’m so glad you had a good time! There really isn’t anything like those night skies, is there…apart from the beautiful days! Hope to see you again.

Thank you for such a good review, Tracie! We are so glad you had such a relaxing stay, and look forward to your visit next year!

Thank you for the review. We pride our selves on communications before and then my on the ground property managers take over. A cell phone is provided so you may call Dana and Anthony at any time you have a questions or need help. The house is maintained by Dana and Anthony and kept in a 5 star state.

Thank you Cristy for your review. Yes, the Habaru House is ideal for family groups as large as 10-12 when you add the ground floor apartment. Dana and Anthony do a fantastic job caroling for our property and tending to guest requests. Having our cell phone in the unit gives you easy access to either of them. thanks again, looking forward to your return. DJB

Unfortunately The internet and TV is not run by Verizon. Private companies distribute TV and Internet in competition with BTL the government owned provider. The signals strength is best in the winter months when there is less rain and dampness. These oceanfront lines like ours take a beating. For access to hi-speed ,or shall I say higher speed , internet you are invited by Kathy and Gary owners of the Oasis gym and coffee house ( and the lucky lobster) to use their internet while enjoying a breakfast burrito. Just north of Diversity Cafe, you passed the Oais when you came into south Hopkins.

Thank you for the response. The house is maintained by our Belizean property managers, Anthony and Dana. They do an excellent job for our guests. The house has been sold to a couple who pledge to keep it as a family accommodation and maintain the same high standards using Anthony and Dana as Belizian property managers. And yes, one meal cooked by Dana is not sufficient to taste local cousins cooked by a Mayan chef with local ingredients.

I explained to the guest in several emails. the sargassum sea weed was blown into our cove by a strong north wind. see location map. I arrived the day the guest left and a south wind had moved the seaweed north. The beach was clear of accumulation. The guest refused to believe mother nature played a role in the accumulation of seaweed. We had hired extra men while guests were here in attempt to rake an opening in the seaweed only to have it blown back in. All the lots in the cove suffered the same fate. By Thursday of their stay the wind had shifted and came form the south. The seaweed broken up. Sorry to see Mother nature reduced a five start rating to 3.

Thank you D, pleased your family enjoyed the house. Dana cookings is always a delight. The seaweed blew in just as you arrived and a challenge to control until the wind changes and blows into the north. We looked at the living room AC and it was not up to par so we replaced the unit prior to the next guest arriving. Thank you for the heads up on the AC unit. The new owners officially take over today, yet I’m still here and will be to coordinate guest reservations and arrivals. New owners, previous guests, pledge to keep the goal of creating a excellent family vacation accommodation.

Pleased you enjoyed the house and beach. We keep switching back and forth between the two internet providers in the village but continue to have poor service. If you need to move a larger document the Oasis Cafe is located right next to the internet booster station and gets good wi-fi. I find the roads very good, but not up to US standard. All the main roads are paved and over half have been rebuilt to US standards. The single lane bridges are old railway trestles and are slowly being replaced with two lane bridges. Ask me for detailed driving instructions if you plan to drive down from the airport. A trip to Belize is always a happy “adventure”.

Thank you for your candid review; The house is maintained by Dana and Anthony and the house is kept in like new condition. The new owners are committed to keeping this a "family accommodation". This is not an investment property and the owners family are frequent residents of the Habaru House. They will continue to employ Dana and Anthony. When notified we showed up to reset the AC unit. There are over 30 restaurants offering local fare, American, and European Fare. Its a fantastic assortment for this small fishing village that has reinvented itself as a eco-tourism destination.

Thank You C.hristie for the review. Anthony and Dana our Belizian Property Managers do and excellent job in support of guests and always just a phone call away (with the cell phone provided in the unit). I would caution anyone leaving shopping bags in their gold carts, kids and kids the world over.

thank you for your review. If while visiting anything is not working correctly please call Anthony. He stops by the house every morning early- but please reach out with the cell phone provided. Thanks
