We stayed at Casa de Suenos for a week's vacation in May. What a beautiful place to go if you want to relax in the sun! The pool, where we spent most of our time, is pristine and very private- no screaming children or fighting for chairs like you find if you go to a pool at a resort, and when you are in the pool you have sunny skies and gorgeous tropical plants surrounding you. To get to and from town is a very easy golf cart ride as the house is not too far from the toll bridge - the "road" gets worse and worse the farther you get from town. The neighborhood was very quiet and there were other nice homes around. The house itself was great for having two couples. It has two separate units- a studio apartment downstairs with queen size bed, large tv (with good channels), bathroom, and kitchenette; and a larger apartment upstairs with a spacious living room, full kitchen (with newer appliances than what we have at home) bedroom, bathroom, den, breakfast nook and deck overlooking the pool. There were no problems with water (we found it to be good enough to drink out of the tap, and the water pressure was good), AC, electricity, smells or bugs like you sometimes find in the tropics- the house is obviously well taken care of, and it has some character. It was nice having the separate units as well because although we were 2 couples there together, we didn't get in each other's way and had our own spaces but still got to enjoy being there together. Near the house there are a few bars and restaurants in easy walking distance if you don't feel like going into town but want to get out for a little while, or just don't feel like cooking. And if you want to go out scuba diving you can ask to have the dive boat pick you up at the dock at the palapa bar which is very close. We were a little nervous before we went about not being on the beach but it turns out the beaches are not that great for swimming anyway, there is quite a bit of seaweed. I highly recommend this house!

We stayed at Casa De Suenos May 12th-22nd.
It is an absolutely beautiful home and we quickly realized we made a good choice for our stay in Ambergris. The grounds are beautiful and well maintained. The upstairs where the main living space is located is decorated beautifully and provides every comfort needed. Spotlessly clean with top of the line appliances. It was a plus to have use of the internet. It is close to several great eating spots. Beach n Kitchen is a close walk on the main road north for breakfast and dinner. Sweet Basils to the south for a great dinner and sunsets. The well kept pool was very much appreciated after a long day in the humid heat. The owners are quick to respond to questions about Ambergris and also phone calls. Very nice people. We had some issues with the downstairs unit because of air conditioning, (workers in the unit several days trying to fix air conditioner) and after dealing with the management company for several days and not getting acceptable results, we emailed Jeanne from the house (who quickly responded) it was fixed the next day with no further issues. We greatly appreciated her actions and wish we would have contacted her sooner.
We would highly recommend to anyone coming to Ambergris this lovely property for their stay. Cannot wait to come back. |

| We stayed at Casa Sueno in March 2009 for 10 days. This place is fantastic! Having a private pool is a real treat, particularly in Belize where beach swimming is not ideal. We had two couples staying here, and the seperate living spaces were ideal for privacy. This is very close to town, but on the north side of the island so it is quiet (and no cars!). A long walk to town, but a very short golf cart ride. We cooked several meals on the grill and in the kitchen and enjoyed eating on the balcony. The internet worked well and there are plenty of TV stations. Maid cleaned the house top-to-bottom every other day and the pool/yard keeper came daily. House is very well maintained. We have no complaints and will certainly stay here again. |
