Wonderful spacious cabanas, so cool inside with large beds and a roomy shower. The on-site restaurant was also fabulous. The staff were incredibly helpful. This north side of the Split on Caye Caulker is pristine and quiet. Town is a short hop on a golf cart and 2 min ferry ride.

The place is clean and the staff are very helpful. You are on the quieter side of the island which we loved but they will take you back and forth by boat which is free of charge. The pool is nice and the place was clean and well maintained. Would recommend!

Our stay has been everything we dreamed off. The staff was incredibly friendly and accommodating. The huts have been a delight to stay in and we had a hut that was very close to the water so we could hear the waves at night. I only have positive things to say about our stay and highly recommend. 10/10

Spacious rooms and bathroom, very nice grounds, close to the main town area of restaurants, bars and stores but you need to take boat across the split, $1 each way. Nice boat ferry to pick you up at dock terminal when you arrive and take you back at the end of your stay. Walking or biking distance to the two nicest beaches on the island. Ac was great, tv options were great. Restaurant was pricy.
