Om boendet

FÄgelön - Placencia

HÄll dig sjÀlv pÄ ett vackert lÀge i en av Belize finaste atollar (6 miles frÄn fastlandet) i en bekvÀm miljö, och med utmÀrkt simning, snorkling, kajakpaddling och utforska precis utanför din dörr. Bird Island har presenterats i mÄnga nationella och internationella publikationer. För fullstÀndig information, se "Noterna" nedan.

Det centrala temat för Bird Island Àr en typ av Àventyr för sjÀlvhushÄll Robinson Crusoe, för dem som vill vara ensamma utan nÄgon annan (ingen personal), bara vara med sin Àlskade, familj eller grupp kÀra vÀnner. Bird Island erbjuds till ett exceptionellt pris för en sÄdan unik upplevelse och passar bÀst för sjÀlvförsörjande i naturen och Àr mest intresserade av att göra egna saker i sin fritid i ~ sann ~ total integritet.

Vill du komma undan allt, Àven för kortast möjliga tid, dÄ Àr det hÀr. Vill du simma eller snorkla i kristallklart vatten i ett vackert orörd rev, kommer du att vara omgiven av en. Vill du ta en fiskestÄng och kasta för att fiska med fisk, Àr atollen runt ön betraktad som en av de bÀsta för den.

Bird Island tenderar ocksÄ att ha exceptionellt vÀder, alltid kallt Àven under sommarmÄnaderna. Du kommer inte heller att stöta pÄ nÄgra av de ökÀnda sandflugorna eller myggorna i Bird Island som tenderar att plÄga fastlandet och de flesta andra öar större delen av Äret. Det var handfyllt för att uppnÄ det viktiga mÄlet.

Efter att ha spenderat tid pÄ Bird Island, Àven för kortast möjliga tid, kommer du att kÀnna att du har gjort nÄgot speciellt speciellt.

      Viktig tillagd information. (Uppdaterad 7 maj 2018)

 # 1- Komma till Placencia frÄn Belize City:
Med buss: Belize Shuttles and Transfers (011-501-288-6671); ungefÀr $ 60 per person (varje sÀtt); trÀffa dig pÄ flygplatsen. 3 timmars resa.
Med flyg: (Maya eller Tropic Air) $ 135 USD varje vÀg per person / 40 minuters flygning. Snabbaste sÀttet.
Med hyrbil: mellan $ 90 - $ 125 USD per dag; ungefÀr 3. 5 timmars bilresa. (Obs! Om du kör sjÀlv kör du via staden Belmopan, inte kustomrÄden som fortfarande inte Àr asfalterad).
Med taxi: $ 300 USD varje vÀg med SUV (4 personer); $ 350 USD med van (6 personer).
** Oavsett reseform, vÀnligen lalwsyd meddela din resplan, sÄ vi kan hjÀlpa till med övergripande samordning. **
  
 # 2- Resan frÄn Placencia Village till Bird Island ingÄr i bokningspriset. Vi möter klockan 12 pÄ M & M Hardware bensinstation, som ligger bakom den stora parkeringsplatsen. M & M ligger mitt i stan, nÀra till allt. Det Àr oerhört anvÀndbart för dig att lÄta oss veta om hÀmtning mÄste vara senare Àn middag (Observera: den hÀr bryggan Àr annorlunda Àn den nya hamnen som ligger i slutet av staden.)

    # 3- Vistelsens lÀngd: Vi har en vistelse pÄ minst 4 dagar, högst 5 dagar. FrÄn erfarenhet har vi lÀrt oss att 4-5 dagar Àr om perfekt, lÀtt att planera för och eliminerar behovet av att behöva komma tillbaka till stan under hela din vistelse, men det alternativet Àr givetvis tillgÀngligt. LÀngre vistelser finns pÄ speciell begÀran. NÀr du bokar, hjÀlper det oss enormt om man vÀljer dagar intill redan blockerade dagar.

# 4- Sovrum: Öns har tre byggnader; Huvudbyggnaden som har ett sovrum med en queen size-sĂ€ng med alla bekvĂ€mligheter. Den 2: a byggnaden Ă€r en ny överhushĂ„ll, helt fristĂ„ende cabana, Ă€ven med queen size-sĂ€ng och Ă€ven med alla bekvĂ€mligheter. Den tredje byggnaden Ă€r en andra cabana med en dubbelsĂ€ng, skrivbord, etc, men inget badrum. Ön passar bĂ€st för 4 gĂ€ster.

# 5 - Extra gÀster: PÄ grund av de nya tillÀggen till ön Àr det nu ett enkelt alternativ att fÄ extra gÀster. Vid bokning, om du inte Àr sÀker pÄ hur mÄnga extra gÀster det kommer att vara, kanske det Àr bÀst att boka endast 2, men Àndra din bokning nÀr du kommer nÀrmare den faktiska ankomst. Endast barn under 5 Är Àr gratis.

# 6 - Sida turer medan du bor pÄ ön: det finns tvÄ sidoutfÀrar vi rekommenderar starkt nÀr du bor i Bird Island med hÀmtning Àr pÄ ön sjÀlv.
Den första Àr vÄr "Smogasbord" resa ($ 200 första 4 personer / $ 50 per person utöver 4) för fiske, snorkling och lobstering, bÀst gjort under din första dag eftersom du kommer fÄnga mycket fisk som kommer att hÄlla dig resten av din vistelse ; vÄra gÀster har helt enkelt Àlskat den hÀr typen av Àventyr eftersom de ocksÄ kommer att lÀra sig att göra det pÄ egen hand runt Bird Island-atollen.
Den andra resan reser till det största Barrier Reef (2: a största i vÀrlden) för antingen snorkling och / eller dykning (kostnad varierar), som vi kan ordna dig med en lokal outfit och detta kan göras Àven efter att du anlÀnt och Àr bor redan pÄ ön.

# 7 - Exklusivitet. Ja, nÀr du bokar FÄgelön menar vi inte privatÀgt, men att du kommer att fÄ hela ön till dig sjÀlv i ~ totalt ~ integritet med ett personligt val utan tanlinje.

# 8 - Avbokningsregler. Vi följer och följer Airbnbs Super Strict 60-policy.

# 9 - VattenslĂ„tar-typskor. Ön Ă€r omgiven av hĂ„rda sandplattor och inom 100 meter av levande korall; Att fĂ„ mjuka skor som tĂ€cker dina tĂ„r och fotled Ă€r en bra sak att ha nĂ€r man gĂ„r om. Det finns mĂ„nga par pĂ„ ön som passar dig, men ingen garanti för det.

# 10 - Snorklingsutrustning: Ta med dig sjÀlv eller du kan hyra dem lokalt pÄ vÀgen till ön. Ja, ön har dock mÄnga uppsÀttningar dock.

# 11 - Fiskeutrustning: Ön Ă€r vanligtvis omringad av konstant marauding skolor av fisk (jacks, snappers, etc.) matar runt den. BĂ€st att ta med (eller hyra) din egen utrustning och nĂ„gra smĂ„ (1 ") silverskedar om du fiskar. Om du vill göra bottenfiske bör du fĂ„ rĂ€ksbete nĂ€r du handlar mat. Ön har nu en ny fiskehamn.

# 12 - Mat: Bird Island Ă€r ett sjĂ€lvhushĂ„llsscenario, sĂ„ planerar att ta med tillrĂ€ckligt med kött, grönsaker och drycker (och sprit) för din vistelse. Ön har dock ett mycket vĂ€lutrustat kök med en myriad av kryddor som tĂ„rtblandningar, mjöl, ris, kryddor, oljor, pappershanddukar, soptĂ€ckor etc., sĂ„ du behöver inte tĂ€nka pĂ„ alla smĂ„ saker . NĂ€ra dĂ€r vi tar oss ut till ön medan vi Ă€r i Placencia finns det utmĂ€rkt matbutik (Ming) och vegetabiliska stĂ€llen. Mat shopping Ă€r ett mycket enkelt steg och kan lĂ€mnas för sista stund.

# 13 - Kylning: Ön har ett nytt propankylskĂ„p med en rĂ€ttvis frys. Det har isbrickor. Att ta minst en pĂ„se is Ă€r aldrig en dĂ„lig idĂ©.

# 14 - Vatten: Ön har ett vĂ€l filtrerat regnvattensystem för allmĂ€nt bruk. Vi tillhandahĂ„ller dock fortfarande renat dricksvatten för att dricka. Det betyder ingen anledning att oroa sig för att föra vatten.

# 15 - Kommunikation. En lokal telefon Ă€r pĂ„ ön sĂ„ att du kan ringa lokala nummer. Ön har mycket bra och pĂ„litlig WiFi.

# 16 - Power. Ön löper pĂ„ solenergi och har en vindgenerator; sĂ„ ingen bullrig generator. Det finns en ny fluisterande Generac IQ2000-generator som Ă€r tillgĂ€nglig för att köra under grumliga dagar, om det behövs. Ön Ă€r inte utrustad för nĂ€rvarande för att tillgodose anvĂ€ndningen av exceptionellt kraftfulla föremĂ„l som hĂ„rtorkar eller luftkonditioneringsapparater.

# 17 - BÄtliv. Det finns tvÄ singelkajaker, knÀbrÀdor och innerrör för att kryssa atollen som omger den.

# 18 - Sun Tan Lotion and Bug Spray. Kom ihÄg att det Àr troperna; Den bÀsta typen av solbrÀnna Àr en av en hög Block Factor, antingen lotion eller spruttyp. NÀr det gÀller buggar (t.ex. sandflugor), har Bird Island inte en tendens att ha dem, till skillnad frÄn fastlandet eller de flesta andra Cayes, men i sÀllsynta extremt lugna, stilla dagar kan de komma över en stund frÄn andra nÀrliggande öar.

# 19 - StÀllen att bo pÄ fastlandet: Vi föreslÄr Cozy Corner, nÀrmast varifrÄn vi tar av och enklast att besöka lokala butiker frÄn. Sea Spray, Ranguana Lodge Àr ocksÄ bra val. En mer exklusiv och fortfarande "i stan" alternativ Àr Chabil Mar. Alla ovanstÄende Àr rÀtt pÄ Placencia stranden. Att bo bra bort frÄn staden upp pÄ halvön krÀver ofta transport.

# 20 - AllmÀnt vÀdermönster:
Januari-15 juni: anses vara den "torra sÀsongen".
15 juni-15 juli: de första sÀsongregnarna tenderar att förekomma.
15 juli-15 september: Vanligtvis Àr det vÀldigt fint vÀder, avbruten av enstaka 30-minuters ÄskvÀder.
15 september-30 oktober: den andra sÀsongregnén tenderar att förekomma.
1 november-30 december dagligen spridda ÄskvÀder hÀr och dÀr men bra vÀder i lÄnga strÀckor mellan dem.
(Observera att vÀder i Belize tenderar att vara trevligt, speciellt pÄ Bird Island, som Àr i en regnskugga och inne i en atoll, sÄ dess omgivande vatten hÄller sig klart Àven vid blÄsning. VÀder. naturligtvis, vi kunde aldrig garantera, sÄ ovanstÄende Àr bara en grov guide.

Senaste noten: Bird Island genomgÄr alltid förbÀttringar varje Är. I 2016 lade vi till nya dÀck, en fiskehamn och det nya observatoriet med utsikt över atollen, vilka gÀster har vÀlkomnat. Förra Äret (2017) gjorde vi de nya gÄngbanorna och en extra överhushÄll, helt sjÀlvstÀndig cabana (16ft x16ft). I Är (2018) har vi redan lagt till en ny fiskehamn och kommer att lÀgga till mÄnga fler tillÀgg och förbÀttringar, till exempel en Àkta strand och en nÀrliggande ö.

Truly Unique Fantasy Experience!

Bird Island has been a dream vacation for us for a long time. And after years of looking at pictures and reading reviews online, it was almost surreal to step foot on the island for the first time. "I can't believe we're really here" went through my mind several times throughout the week. The entire experience was amazing! The logistics were smooth, from meetup to shopping to transportation - Leo handled it all in a professional and friendly manner. Fred and Ruth were there to welcome us upon arrival and the hand off went off without a hitch. The island itself is a dream! This is not a five star luxury resort, so don't expect that sort of experience. This is something different - an island getaway where you are isolated, free, and truly at one with the ocean and nature around you. Snorkeling, kayaking, and fishing are second to none. At night the sky lit up with stars in a way that you just don't experience in city life. Of course I have to give a nod to Thurman who gave us an amazing experience and made sure we had enough fish to eat for the whole week! All in all it was a dream come true, and an adventure that I will treasure for the rest of my life.

Relax and enjoy

What a fantastic place! Fred, Ruth and Leo are considerate, responsive and accommodating. If you are looking for a place to get away, this is it. You won’t have all the luxuries of high priced resorts, but you will have everything you need for a true island adventure! That is exactly how Bird Island is set up. Leave your cares on the mainland and spend your day snorkeling, kayaking, paddle boarding or relaxing in a hammock. Do not skip the chance to go fishing with Thurman. In my opinion, it is best to spend a full day on the island before scheduling a fishing trip. It gives you time to get adjusted to your stay. Also, 5 days seemed like the perfect amount of time for us. Not too long that we needed more supplies and not too short that we were not able to enjoy all there was to offer.

One of a kind location!

Everything about Bird Island was amazing from start to finish. Fred was great about communicating the itinerary and what was needed to make our stay perfect. His son helped us shop for groceries, transported us and all of our food and gear to the island, and even helped turn in our rental car so we didn't have to pay extra for it to sit parked for the time we were on the island! My two boys (ages 15 and 16) loved to snorkel and explore the area around the island. We fished, relaxed, made delicious meals in the lovely kitchen, and spent the evenings playing cards and board games. They have thought of everything and there is nothing missing from this amazing place. It was truly a once in a lifetime experience.

Super easy, great communication with property manager regarding flight changes and getting in later than expected. They think of everything so you don't have to! Island is just beautiful they give you so many things to do on the island but then offer amazing excursions. We will be back for sure!

Location, Location, Location

After almost two years of planning then two years of pandemic delays we finally got to stay at Bird Island. It was all I expected and more. The location is insanely beautiful. You are located on a pristine reef with tons of marine wildlife. Moray eels, spotted eagle rays, and nurse sharks just to name a few. Kayaking or snorkeling in the calm morning waters to evenings with drinks by the bar area listening to music. Relaxation is what this property is all about. Fred, Ruth, and family were wonderful. Ruth's cooking was insanely good. Leo was a great captain and tour guide on our trip to Silk Caye and Laughing bird. The Monkey river tour should not be missed either (we did this one while staying on the mainland so we wouldn't cut into our time on the island). If Privasea didn't have one of the expeditions we wanted to take Ruth was very helpful in getting a good tour guid who did. If you are hesitant to book this property don't be. Definitely a once in a lifetime experience (maybe twice since we may book again!)

We hope to be back again soon!

This is our second time to Bird Island. Fred and his team have done amazing updates and additions on the island since our first stay. Fred is a dream to work with and very responsive. His team will work with you on anything you need or could want. Having an affordable remote island with all the amenities you could want paired with your own reef for fishing, lobster, snorkeling or kayaking is beyond explanation. This is and will be a go to destination for us as a family for years to come, cant wait to get back as soon as we can!

One-of-a-Kind Vacation Rental

Even though there are so many pictures, videos, and reviews of Bird Island and you are more than certain it's gonna be one of the greatest places you've ever been to, it's still an overwhelming feeling when you actually get there. Euphoria is a word you use a lot while you are there to describe how you feel. From the start, and we were booked months in advance, Fred is right there to answer all your questions every step of the way. Once you are there you feel like you've been friends for a long time. After reading countless 5 star reviews from everyone else's experiences, there's no way you could ever adequately describe it in any different words. What makes it so practical but unique is how it sits on this huge coral reef in 3 feet of water, so it's not like living on a huge house boat where you have to dive into deep water to get wet. If you love the ocean then this is your opportunity to experience it on a totally different level, whether you're the type who loves to swim, snorkel, and kayak in the middle of the sea or if you like lying in a hammock, sitting at the outdoor bar, or just chilling out in one of the many great places to relax, this is the perfect place for either.. Everything about the place has been very well thought out, executed, and maintained. Fred and family take care of every detail for you so try not overthink anything. The village of Placencia is a whole other 5 star review, it's an amazingly quaint little primitive place. Go there for a few days before Bird Island for a wonderful Central American experience. In short, just get it on your bucket list, book it, and go. Thanks Fred, Ruth, Leo, and the rest of the family crew for a wonder time

Relax!

Lovely island - gorgeous setting! Missing an area to swim/sit in the sea. But that's a minor thing as you can jump in the sea :) We didn't have enough firewood for anymore than 1 fire which was a shame - I much prefer to cook on a fire than charcoal BBQ. Nothing can be done if there is no firewood around though! :) But Fred was a really lovely host - very helpful and always 'on call'! I loved the overwater bungalows! Sooo calming to fall asleep and wake up to the water beneath the floor. Loved it! Lots of books to read, loooads of food to help yourselves to! I don't think I've been in such a well packed rental! We brought way too much food with us too - luckily we had a few days in Placencia afterwards to eat the leftovers. Haha! We had gorgeous weather - it can get really windy - but that just keeps you cool. We also had a lightning storm one night - which was amazing to watch from my bed. :) Book with confidence!

Amazing experience!

A great experience with our 5 and 7 year old girls! Fred is a great host and has the island stocked with everything you need and then some. Getting to watch our girls play around on the island all day catching crabs and little fish off of the dock was perfect. The reef around the island is great and it was fun to night snorkel as well. Also agree with everyone else that you need to go fish/snorkeling with Thurman. Great guide with adults and kids and works really hard to get you fish and lobster! Thanks again Fred for sharing your amazing island with us!

Rustic island retreat!

When will you ever get the chance to say that you were stranded on a dessert island? We were and it was a great experience. Fishing and snorkeling right at our front door. You also get to experience the ocean in such a different way we you are so close to it. Am experience we will never forget. I will include that while it certainly was a good experience it was extremely rustic. It was between camping and glamping. Definitely closer to camping. While the accommodations were quirky and sweet, it was not very comfortable and very few creature comforts like great mattresses, pillows, sheets and towels. While very clean they were not at all plush or comfy. The kitchen is well stocked for the casual cook. If you are looking at making more refined meals the kitchen is tough. Mismatched dishes and plates, few utensils a couple or measuring cups but not a full set, etc. We did enjoy our tine for sure but it would have been truly amazing if the property was upgraded a bit for comfort. I say thug because we spent a good bit of the trip talking about how we outfit the property with a better interior design and more comfortable attributes. Then island and concept are great it just needs an update to take it from more of a camping experience something more sophisticated and comfortable.

A special place with some of the best snorkeling there is

Fred, Ruth and Leo are incredible at working with their guests and making sure things go well. We found the snorkeling gear at the island to be better than what we used in Hawaii and Puerto Rico and this made snorkeling a great time. While I found that my skills in spearing fish need a lot of work it was fun getting out there and trying it. This is a very special place, as-advertised in the listing and well worth the adventure for those that are looking for a very unique place! Thanks Fred, Ruth and Leo!

Lovely again - you can't go wrong staying here.

This was our second trip to Bird Island. Fred has made a lot of additions to the the island. We were so happy to be soaking up the Belizien sunshine from our very own island. We did encounter some bitting insects (we couldn't see them, but we have the bits, so we know they are there now.) There was an amazing pantry plus sunscreen, bug dope, fins, water shoes, shampoo...... everything you can think of, too many to mention. Fred, Leo and Ruth were delightful to work with and I highly recommend a stay. (just be careful to watch for hermit crabs who we shared the walkways with. They we apt to wander about and are very cute.)

Paradise awaits - JUST GO!

What a special place Bird Island is. From the moment we stepped off the boat we were in heaven. Late night hermit crab races and kayaking through the bioluminescence. Fishing/snoring with Thorman is a must! One of a kind fishing experience. Caught enough fish that could have fed us all 4 nights! The lobster he caught mmmm - steak and lobster night was out of this world good! We snorkeled the whole atoll around the island. Great snorkeling. We saw octopus, nurse sharks, sting rays, all types of tropical fish. Fred and Ruth have picture guides back at the house that we enjoyed going back to see what the names of the fish were. Enjoyed watching lightening storms in the distance from our hammocks. We ate well, made lasting memories, and spent 4 days exploring nonstop. Bird Island is now top on the vacations we have taken. Tips: DON’T overwork the ice box/cooler. Get about 4-5 bags of ice. Put all your drinks in the ice chest and meats or things that could spoil in the ice box and refrain from continuously open the fridge door. Chum with your left over fish guts right off the dock and all sorts of fish will come up to feed. Fred and Ruth have the House well stocked with some non parishables. No need to buy water, coals, oil, cake mixes, pancake mixes, cereal, can goods, spaghetti, coffe...we bought way too much for our trip, but we know for next time pretty much all you need is a swimsuit and a snorkel! Thank you Fred and Ruth for sharing the little piece of paradise with us. Can’t wait to watch all the improvements unfold and bring our son back one day. :)

Peaceful Tranquility!

This is where you go to find yourself; to spend "quality" time with family; to find peace. Nurse sharks and stingrays greet you right from the dock and splendid Starfish and Eagle Rays can be spotted from the elevated deck through the absolutely clear water. Some of the best snorkeling occurs right in front of the island and bioluminescense surrounds it on moonless nights. Kayaks provide relaxing and sometimes challenging recreation. After midnight, stars and galaxies awaken and there is nothing quite like seeing the Milky Way and constellations sparkle with a 360 degree view. Spectacular sunrises every morning and spectacular sunsets every night. Barbecue dinners on the deck while sipping cocktails lead to pleasant and relaxing conversation often foregone in busy lives. The people who provide this peace and calm, Fred and Ruth, as well as their son and Thormon, are some of the nicest, most thoughtful people you will ever meet. From the time you arrive until the time you leave, they allow you the isolation and serenity you desire, while always available should the need arise. Our family situation had changed since the initial booking, and we thought we would have to cancel, but they assured us they could work with us to make it work, and they delivered. While on the island, our large family taxed the propane fridge, and when made aware of the situation, they delivered a large cooler with plenty of ice and replaced the spoiled items within hours. No small feat considering you are six miles from shore. Our son flew in from Germany to meet us the last few days and Fred and Ruth arranged for someone to meet him at the airport and provided a boat ride out so he could join us and we could all be together the last few days .Finally, fishing and snorkeling with Thormon was simply wondrous! Our favorite part of the trip. The fish we caught; the stunning snorkeling sites he took us to; the amazing barbecue he grilled our last day. Bird Island is an absolute treasure. Fred and Ruth are continually updating and improving the site. Don't hesitate to book this once in a lifetime opportunity.

Absolutely perfect

What an amazing expirence!!! We stayed for 4 nights & 5 days for our 10 year anniversary, at the beginning of September. I have an obsession with the beautiful and amazing country of Belize and my husband knows it all too well. He chose this island, knowing how much I would love it!! Fred is super helpful and will answer any questions you may have. The island is absolutely amazing. Beautiful clear water, surrounds the entire island, you can see schools of small fish, trumpet fish and star fish right from the edge. If you like to be in the water make sure you bring snorkel gear, there is PLENTY to see!! The kayaks are super fun! The house has all the basics you will need. You will have to cook your own meals, but it is all worth it with the spectacular views that are right at your feet. This is not a 5 star hotel with all the amenities, the house is somewhat basic and electricity and water conservation is a must. (But honestly if you are spending all of you time in the house, something is wrong with you.) The stars at night are endless, and the illuminating plankton are magical. The nights were very windy and were a little hard getting used to. The doors and windows stayed open to keep the breeze coming in, which felt a little weird, but if you close everything, it gets warm fast. Overall it was the most perfect gift and expirence I could have asked for!!! If you are adventurous and don't expect fancy amenities, you will LOVE Bird Island!

Book it, you won't regret it.

My family of 4 traveled through Central America for a month. Bird Island was our last stop before heading home. After being gone a month, I figured we would all be ready to come home, but none of us wanted to leave the island. My sons are 5 and 9 and I didn't have to worry about being surrounded by ocean because the reef around the island was shallow enough for my 5 year old to stand in. The snorkeling around the island was great, and kayaking to other islands was enjoyable and challenging! We stayed in 8 different homes during our month away, and Fred had thought of everything to make his guests comfortable. We couldn't believe how well he stocked the kitchen, when he says all you need is meat and produce, he's not kidding. This island was truly an experience of a lifetime.

Best Vacation We've Had In A Long Time!

We heard about Bird Island from an article we read about renting an entire island for yourself - and we just couldn't believe the price - so we sent an email to Fred to find out details - and ended up booking a week on his island - it just sounded like a lot of fun. Fred did not disappoint - we had the best time and were totally delighted with our stay on Bird Island - Fred thought of everything and made our stay there so relaxing and so much fun! Since it was just my wife and I, we really felt like we were in some movie about living on a deserted island - except we didn't need to worry about finding food or drink - it was just a fantastic 6 days and 5 nights that we spent on the island. We went snorkeling and kayaking - and all the equipment was right there on the island - no need to rent anything! Relaxing in the hammocks and just enjoying the sense of being alone and not hearing any traffic or seeing any people (except an occasional boat that would wander by) ... We'll definitely be back again - maybe stay for 2 weeks next time ... it certainly ranks up there with our favorite vacations of all time - it was everything we were hoping for - and more! Thank you, Fred!

Can we give it more than 5 stars????

I am not sure that I can choose one word to describe Bird Island. I can say that this is a beautiful place, it's an amazing place, it's peaceful, and it was an experience of a lifetime! We've traveled to many amazing places and I'm not sure that anything can top this one. What Fred has created and shares with many, words cannot describe. I hope to return one day. The entire booking process was seamless and Fred answered all of my annoying questions quickly. He went above and beyond, helping me upon our return to land. He has a wealth of knowledge and shares it openly. The accommdations were perfect. Sitting on the deck each night watching the stars as well as the glow in the dark fish was great. Cayaking and paddle boating and snorkeling all day and alone...who could ask for anything more? I'm sure that others who have stayed would agree that Bird Island has a permanent place in our hearts and memories. This place is great for the soul!

Beautiful and relaxing, just perfect for us.

I can't imagine a better place to be. The little island was perfect for us because it was just the two of us! Fred had the kitchen stocked, we got fresh fruits and veggies in Placencia before we left. The breezes off the water was awesome. We snorkeled, kayaked, and mostly hung out in the hammocks enjoying the beautiful scenes that God put in front of us day after day. We truely enjoyed this trip and Fred wad so much help before answering all our questions. If I could give it more than five stars I would! Hope to someday return to "our" little island.

So relaxing . . .

Home for 4 days now and still basking in the relaxing glow of this fantastic vacation. The island is perfect. Peaceful, tranquil, private - with wonderful activities at your fingertips. Fishing, kayaking and snorkeling kept us busy several times a day. We loved being able to hop in the kayak, paddle a short way, and snorkel in some of the most beautiful coral reefs. We enjoyed watching the sunsets from the rooftop deck, gazing at the moon and stars from the hammocks, and drinking coffee on the deck watching the sunrise. This trip was spontaneous! I read an article about Bird Island and immediately said "I want to go there!" I grabbed the first dates I could find available. Best decision ever. Fred is a wonderful host and rightfully proud of his island. He will take good care of you. We enjoyed getting to know you, Fred. Thank you for the "island tour" and for great conversation. Hoping to return soon . . . Susan and Mark
