"Dear Deborah, The most wonderful thing about our trip to Belize was the amazing variety of sea life. We have snorkeled throughout the Caribbean, the east and west coast of Mexico and the South Pacific. The snorkeling in Belize is second only to Tahiti. With guides on the Hol Chan/Shark-Ray Ally tour we were able to pet nurse sharks and a sting ray. We saw spiney star fish, a huge green eel, a jumbo hermit crab in a conch shell, a giant turtle and many other creatures. The only thing I missed was ocean swimming access right from the beach, but your ads were honest about that. The condo was comfortable and the view was lovely. On our golf cart touring day, we stopped at many of the highly acclaimed resorts most often mentioned on internet travel sites and in travel books such "Fodors" for a cool drink and look see. What we discovered to our delight is that we had by far the BEST accommodations on the island. Your resort is easily the most attractive, quiet and relaxed, with open space, a great staff and easy access to everything else. The cell phone wasn't much use except for local calls, but Anna and Tracy at the front desk effortlessly got calls through to the states for us and it was not very expensive at all. The complimentary shuttle to town each night for dinner is a real plus and perfectly timed. Everyone on Ambergris Caye, the tour guides, native islanders, and the tourist, is friendly and helpful.": Marti Wagner - "Deb - Let me tell you that our honeymoon trip to Ambergris Caye was completely "unbelizeable!" The condo that we stayed at, the oceanfront studio, was perfect for the two of us for the eleven days that we stayed. We utilized the kitchen and the accessories to cook and eat some of our meals in-house. We had the staff make reservations for us when we wanted to have a romantic dinners. Overall, the staff at the condo were wonderfully friendly and helpful especially Anna, Tracy and of course George! The group booked all of our trips for us and had us picked up at the Caribe Island Condos dock each time. They also made sure to check on us to make sure that everything was going all right. The facility was well groomed, clean, secure and overall presented the relaxing and quiet atmosphere we were looking for. The distance from town was far enough to avoid the crowds while being close enough to bike or take the shuttle in for whenever we needed. One recommendation for all of your future visitors: If you can book a snorkeling trip or excursion through Suya tours, ask for Gavino. He was fantastic! Very nice, always on time and just a great guy all around. Overall, this was a wonderful trip that we look forward to repeating. Thanks again for being so thorough, walking us through the process and helping us to make sure that we covered all the details. Just what we needed, especially in the midst of planning our wedding! Thanks again!" Pete Dear Deborah, Our visit was peaceful and comfortable! The staff are all delightful ~ especially you, Anna, Tracy, George and Albert." Marti Deborah, "This was our second trip to Belize and our first stay in San Pedro. We stayed for one week at Caribe Island Condos Resort and enjoyed every minute of it. The resort was very well maintained, the staff was very friendly and helpful, the room (standard studio oceanfront) was great for two people, having bikes available was wonderful for grocery shopping and exercise, the pool was just the right size to relax or swim, the beach was well maintained, the snorkling trips with Carlos were fun, don't miss the 4:30 PM feeding of the 13 foot crocodile by the local kids at the lagoon close by, rent a golf cart for at least a day, and take advantage of the kayak and sail boat rental at a close by resort, and check out the iguanas at the beach and the property next door. If you like to relax in quiet, comfortable surroundings, Caribe Island, Belize is the resort for you!" Lothar and Melanie "Hi Deb, The vacation was excellent! We had four days of snorkeling, a two-day trip to Guatemala, and a trip to Altun Ha. Traci and Anna were very accommodating. The room was excellent. Overall, the experience was memorable. Thank you for your assistance." Best regards, Robert Deb, "We stayed in a Deluxe one bedroom oceanfront. It was the most relaxing vacation we ever took. We have been to many of the Caribbean islands and this one took the cake! Ambergris Caye is definitely the place to stay when you visit Belize. It is laid back and the locals are fun. Everything was perfect. The rooms are immaculate! The staff was incredibly friendly. The maids actually scrubbed the room each day - well above the call of duty - but we sure enjoyed it! There is a tour guide on site and he was wonderful. He does all tours except diving. All of the other companies pick you up on the dock - very convenient! The pool was refreshing and the grounds were beautiful. We walked up and down the beach and Caribe Island definitely has one of the best maintained beaches. First thing every morning the groundsmen raked the beach to perfection. We even fished and snorkeled off the dock. Our unit had a veranda and was right on the beach. We walked out our door and the sea was a few feet away! We had a kitchen with all the works - coffee pot, fridge, stove, toaster, pots, etc. Although we enjoyed breakfast and lunch in our condo, the best part of Ambergris Caye is going out to eat and living it up with the locals. The food was terrific. We made an adventure out of trying all the different restaurants and were thrilled with each one. Go to BC's on Sunday for the best BBQ on the planet. Try the Tai restaurant - it was our favorite. Although it was fun to go to town, we enjoyed Caribe Island because once we returned to our condo it was Q-U-I-E-T and peaceful as a vacation should be. We walked to town a few days along the beach. It was fun. We also tried riding the complimentary bikes - also fun. Two days we had a golf cart and I would recommend it. We had a good time cruising through the streets, checking out where the locals lived and exploring the remote north end of the island. The hand-ferry was a hoot, but it would be a bit annoying if we had to use it all the time. I am glad we stayed on the South end of the island. Overall, our trip was fantastic and we plan to go back twice a year if we can. I would recommend Caribe Island Condos to anyone looking for an unique Caribbean vacation at a top notch resort! Thanks. -Jay Deborah! "Where can I start? From the moment 'My Girl Terai' and I met you, we felt at ease... The way you and the staff assisted us, and ensured our comfort was amazing!!! .....We stayed at your Manatee Suite...The web pictures didn't do it justice....All 5 of us were Great there....It was perfect!!! The Staff were always there to assist us. I felt they went above and beyond to ensure our good time....Special mention to Albert the Bartender...and Alberto the groundsman. I'd also like to thank Carlos at SUYA TOURS...The Lamani tour was incredible!!!!!!! Suya Tours Rocks!!!!!!!! It was worth every penny and more.... Carlos was Confident and friendly, answering all our questions knowledgeably and with flair..... This was our first time to San Pedro. We'll be back in April next year...Thank you for such a memorable time.. Thanks again for all your help and support, we'll see you next year... Counting the Days," Eric Kieweg (Visited us in April with his wonderful girlfriend and close friends) Deb, "Our vacation last month to Ambergris Caye was truly memorable. The weather was perfect, the water was perfect and the atmosphere was perfect. From the moment we stepped off the plane everything and everyone was wonderful. Maybe its because the island is small that you get an immediate sense of community. The folks living on the Ambergris are some of the friendliest we have met anywhere. When you pass on the street everyone smiles and warmly greets you. The accommodations at Caribe Island Condos are tastefully decorated in an island motif, plus they are absolutely SPOTLESS. Each morning the ladies come by to clean your condo. Not only do they change the sheets each day, they sweep and mop all the floors, scrub the sinks and shower, wash countertops, wash the dishes and straighten up the rooms. It was just heavenly! The grounds, the pool and the beach are also kept tidy. Tracy, the office manager at Caribe Island Condos arranged SCUBA trips and a trip to the mainland to explore the Mayan ruins. We were picked up and dropped off at the Caribe Island dock, which made it so convenient. We would and already have recommended Caribe Island Condos to our friends and family." Karen and Todd F. Jamison "Deborah, The Tikal trip you set up was superlative! There was a brilliant guide, who responded to his interested, small party by having lunch on the go, permitting more time among the temples. I have seen most of the world's archelogical treasures, and Tikal, with our superb Mayan guide, did not disappoint." Dr. Whitehead (A frequent traveler to Ambergris Caye) Deb "Theres NOTHING that was bad during my entire stay at your condo! I love each and every member of the staff that I met--we took George (our driver)out for dinner one night then for drinks on another. Albert (the bartender) kept us entertained for hours at the bar and the office staff really went out of their way to accommodate any need we had." I would "ABSOLUTELY" recommend Caribe Island Condos to others! Here's what I'd like others to know: "Caribe Island Condos Resort has the most knowledgeable, helpful booking agent, the most friendly staff, the cleanest rooms, and a wonderful environment for meeting new friends. This was my first trip to Belize. Deb Neisius sent an email containing vital information that made my trip perfect! The staff assisted me in scheduling affordable tours, the taxi driver was like family as well as the bartender! THANK YOU FOR A WONDERFUL STAY!" ~Amber Brixey Deborah- "We had a wonderful time in Belize! Thanks so much for booking us a condo at the last minute. Our trip would have been cancelled if not for you having put things together at such short notice. The condo was amazing as well as the staff. The condo was nicely decorated. It was very clean and well maintained. Tracy was great and very helpful. She helped us book the extra activities we did.... such as cave tubing, jungle rides, the Belize Zoo, and snorkeling. All we had to do is step out our door and we were right on the beautiful, white sanded beach! The town of San Pedro was very charming and laid back with some nice little shops and great places to eat. We were very thankful that you provided complimentary bicycles to your guests. It is a short and pleasant bike ride into town which we did almost daily. A few days, we walked along the beach into San Pedro which was just as nice as the bike ride. I would and have recommended Belize as well as Caribe Island Condos to anyone wanting a peaceful relaxing, and affordable getaway. Thanks again to Deborah, Elsita, Tracy and everyone else at Caribe Island Condo for making our trip to Ambergris Caye one of the best vacations we have taken to date! WE'LL BE BACK!!!!!!!!!!!" Matthew Maberry - Illinois Deb! "We had a wonderful time!!!! In fact, we are planning to return in May. Woohoo!!!! Tracy is AWESOME!! She was soooo helpful with everything. We would like to thank you, her, and Elsita for EVERYTHING! The condo was great in every aspect of our stay. It was beautifully decorated and maintained. Our children loved it there. My husband is VERY hard to impress.....after 10 years of marriage....I know this better than anyone. He has been telling everyone that we had a blast! That is the biggest compliment of all. Ambergis Caye is now an annual vacation spot for us, and we love and appreciate everyone associated with our stay. It was so great that we opted to stay an extra night....in fact, if the flights home wouldn't have been so full, we would have stayed another.....if not a couple. Thank you for your help with everything....This trip, unlike others we've taken just fell together so easily.... and the credit goes to you....Tracy....and Elsita. We would not have had the time we did....if it weren't for you. We would also like to thank Roberto, George, Albert, Spongebob, and the night security man. You have an awesome team there. Without a doubt.....we'll be back. Thank you for EVERYTHING!" ~ LeAnn Taylor "Hi Deborah- Here is a testimonial for Caribe Island...we had a great time! The Caribe Island Condo Resort on Ambergris Caye was a great place to stay. We stayed in a Jr. suite right on the beach and couldn't have been happier. The unit was roomy and very clean, as was the whole resort. The beach was one of the nicest and largest that I saw as far as any of the other resorts go (as you get nearer to San Pedro the beaches as well as the resorts are smaller with a lot packed into a small space…they gave me a cramped feeling.) There are also numerous resorts that have a small seawall, thus you aren't able to walk at the edge of the water as you can at Caribe Island Condo Resort. Getting into San Pedro (it's about 2-3 miles) was never a problem…it was an easy bike ride and there was an evening shuttle every night. (Bikes and shuttle are free.) All the dive and tour companies will pick you up right at the Caribe Island Condo Resort dock. The resort staff (i.e Elsita, Tracie, and Alberto) were all very helpful while we were there…..They were always available and willing to attend to anything we needed. Deborah was also easy to work with, had great email and phone communication, and always got back to me right away answering any questions that I had before we went. We were very happy with our choice of lodging and would definitely stay at Caribe Island Condo Resort again." Amy Tweedy - Colorado "We had such a great time at Caribe Island. It was our first trip to Ambergris Caye, and after exploring the entire island, we decided we definitely picked the best place to stay. It is the smallest/most private, with the best beach, best location, and great food. We plan on going back within the year!" (Melissa- Visitor from Dallas, TX, USA) A customer of Deborah's comments on the difference between Mexico and Belize. She writes "I would LOVE to share my Belize information with your customers. My husband and I have been to Playa Del Carmen in Mexico and stayed at the Royal Hideaway Resort and Spa. It was very expensive and not NEARLY as enjoyable as Belize. My husband and I flew into Belize City and then took a small sea plane to Ambergris Caye (San Pedro). The people are very friendly and speak ENGLISH! Someone once told me that when you get there you can take your shoes off and not put them back on until you get ready to head back home. I didn't believe them but it is soooooo true. We landed on a sand airstrip and received our "roundtrip transportation" from the airport to the hotel. Our transportation consisted of a barefoot guy in a golfcart. It was great. The water and beaches are beautiful. We went to the ruins, snorkeling, snorkeling with the nurse sharks at Shark Ray Alley, night clubbing at Barefoot Iguanas, cave tubing 20 miles from the Guatemala border. It was a true rustic experience. Everyone drives Golf Carts, stays barefoot, and they are very welcoming. Please refer to the website www.ambergriscaye. com for a complete guide to Ambergris Caye. We also took a 15 minute boat ride to Caye Cauker (tiny island) near Ambergris. It is very uninhabited and gorgeous. In Belize you can get hour long massages on the beach for $50. Meals are great and often cooked over open fire on the beach where you just go by and get a plate. We loved it and are planning to go back again this year. If you really want to go and make it a worthwhile trip, you need to invest in Fodor's Belize/Guatemala book. Lots of info there. Let me know if I can give you any more information." (Kelli -Visitor from Louisana USA) A vistor from Ontario, Canada Writes "We absolutely loved Belize. We were there at Christmas time and it was absolutely magnificent. Caribe Island Resort is greatl. Very clean and we had a little kitchenette too......we enjoyed going out every evening for dinner in the town.... There is a free shuttle from the resort to town which is about 10 mins away. The staff there were soooo friendly. I have never been anywhere where I was treated that well by the staff. All the roads on the island are dirt and there are a lot of golf carts driving around. The only pavement on the island is the landing strip at the airport. I am looking forward to going back to Belize some day.. I highly recommend Belize and the Caribe Island Resort." |
