Gumbo Limbo's Dreaded Grape Cabana - Steps from Ocean, Free Bikes, Free WiFi

“The Gumbo Limbo’s Dreaded Grape” – the latest addition to The Gumbo Limbo property!

The Dreaded Grape used to be a cozy wine bar on Caye Caulker that has been moved to The Gumbo Limbo property and converted into a vacation rental. The freestanding cabin still has all the charm of a wine bar that includes the beautiful rosewood bar that now serves as part of the kitchenette. A private covered porch with a decorated wine rack provides the shade you need to enjoy the cabin’s garden-view.
This great little self-contained cabin is only a short walk from the village, yet far enough away to enjoy real peace and quiet.

The Dreaded Grape offers a semi-secluded accommodation experience and comes with owners dedicated to ensuring your stay is comfortable.
Ideal for 1 or 2 people seeking a tropical hideaway, the cabin is located just steps from the ocean thru a gated fence in the adjacent lot, allowing direct access to the beach.
The Dreaded Grape features a combined living / bedroom with queen bed, lounge area and kitchenette with fridge, microwave and AC. Private bath with hot and cold water. The private covered deck with table and chairs and an outdoor grill plus complimentary bikes and Wifi make this little cabin a terrific value.

There are many golf cart taxis on the island or you have complimentary bikes to ride. Also, it is only a 10 min. walk to the village.

We respect your privacy but are always available if you need something.

If you require more than one room, please check our other three rentals on the property. In addition to the Gumbo Limbo – Studio, the “Gumbo Limbo – Aria Kat Art Cabana“, the “Gumbo Limbo’s Go Slow Cabana”, and “The Gumbo Limbo Sea-Esta Studio Apartment” will provide for all the space that you need for a vacation with family and friends!

We are new to VRBO, but have many reviews on other popular booking websites (Super-Host status).
During your stay at this vacation home, you're just a quick walk from Belize Barrier Reef. The vacation home includes amenities such as free WiFi and a kitchenette.
  • Air-conditioned home with kitchenette, Smart TV, and microwave
  • Free WiFi (speed: 500+ Mbps (good for 6+ people or 10+ devices))

This is one of my favorite places to stay on the island. The property is maintained great, you have everything you need, plus complimentary bikes (which most places charge for). Ben & Aria are wonderful hosts and Tito the dog is the best. As a solo female traveler I always feel safe and comfortable here! See you guys again soon!

Loved being away from the crowds and noise. The Dreaded Grape was clean and has everything you need. Comfortable bed, hot shower, TV, fast internet, and a kitchenette if you want to cook. Easy to walk around the island. We were also close enough to walk to airport with our luggage when we headed home.

Comfortable room worth the money with everything we'd liked about the listing. There was an unfortunate issue with the plumbing but the manager was communicative about it. Good discount option for people seeking a home base without paying resort prices

A wonderful couple of days in paradise.

The communication and check in process was great, as well as the property being as described and away from the main drag on front street. The 2 dogs were very friendly. Ben was incredibly responsible when there was a minor issue with the lock on the door and it was fixed and addressed faster than any hotel could be. 10/10 will be staying here next time we visit the island.

My fiancé and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at the Gumbo Limbo Dreaded Grapes. It was exactly what we needed for the two of us during our trip. It had a great location, was very clean, and Ben and Aria were very friendly and helpful any time we had questions. I would highly recommend to book with them!

No Bad Days at Gumbo Limbo

This was our second time staying at Gumbo Limbo. Ben and Aria are attentive and wonderful hosts. The location is perfect for us. Close enough to the action and far enough away to relax. We always recommend Gumbo Limbo to our friends.

The Dreaded Grape

Gumbo Limbo was a perfect oasis on Caye Caulker. Ben and Aria are the perfect hosts and were super helpful throughout our entire stay. With steps from the beach the location is perfect for all access to where you want to go on the island. Thank you for making our stay on the island so enjoyable, Ben and Aria!

Our stay at The Dreaded Grape was excellent! We only wished it could have been longer. We arrived several hours before our check-in time and were greeted by Ben, who was extremely accommodating, allowing us to store our luggage in the room for safe-keeping until check-in time. He also graciously allowed us to take the bikes out to explore the island while we waited. The bikes were such an added bonus and gave us freedom to go everywhere on the island in short time. With baskets on the bikes, it was easy to carry what we needed for the beach, etc.. The room itself was very clean and had everything we needed for our short stay. The air conditioning was efficient and the bed was comfortable. We really appreciated the drinking water and safe, as well. The property itself was clean, beautifully treed and quiet. Even the neighbors were quiet. Although we didn't see our hosts much, Ben was always quick to respond whenever we messaged him with a question. On our last day, we used the number provided in the information binder to contact a taxi to help us get to the ferry with our luggage. Peter (taxi driver) also responded quickly and showed up 10 minutes early. We would definitely return if/when we visit the island again.
