Casa Nova Cabanas Patio View Cabana, Secret Beach - Boutique hotels for Rent in San Pedro, Corozal District, Belize

Our stay was wonderful overall. The staff was incredibly attentive and responsive, consistently checking in to make sure we had everything we needed. The location was a bit more remote than ideal, but that was expected. There isn’t much open after 6 PM unless you drive into town on San Pedro, so it’s something to plan around. The rooms are fairly simple, more like standard hotel accommodations with just a bed and bathroom and cabanas are shared with a few other guests. That said, the dock and amenities were excellent and really elevated the experience.

This place and location was magical! Kay and Jaime live and work on the property and were incredible. We have never felt so cared for! The private beach was such a nice escape. A golf cart is a must to explore and get back and forth. Would love to come back someday and bring family!

JC and Roxy was so accommodating and did everything to make our stay perfect. We had a lovely time and would gladly go back there to spend more time at the accommodation since it was such a beautiful location!

I chose this place for my parents to celebrate my dad’s 60th bday. They had nothing but great things to say. They loved the privacy, service and proximity to different areas around secret beach. They highly recommended so I might have to go back for a trip myself

We stayed here for the last two nights of our honeymoon and really enjoyed the private beach and nice property. Rooms were cozy, clean, and comfortable. On-site manager was awesome and went above and beyond to wake up early to make us breakfast before we left and made a delicious coconut mojito! They had kayak and paddle boards for us to use and we simply relaxed on the dock and swam in the gorgeous water. This comment is not a reflection of the wonderful property itself but just a heads up on the location: the Secret Beach area itself is… interesting. It’s a long golf cart ride from the main San Pedro town and there’s just a few beach bars that are more spring break vibes with high prices (for Belize) and not really any dinner options. just be prepared to drive 20-40 minutes for any decent night dining. And bring bug spray :) for us it was a good way to mix up our six day stay on the island but wouldn’t book an extended stay here because of the dining situation

This is such a hidden gem. Everything was perfect perfect perfect! Gizmo was an extra special guest, so well mannered and cute! We felt and were treated like family. Can’t wait to return!

Thank you for the kind words,  we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and hope we can welcome you back to the island one day!

This place was amazing! Kevin and Nova were great! This is a hidden gem! Not a single detail missed! The breakfast, homemade jam,granola and fresh pressed coffee was a great way to start your day. We spent our first 3 of 9 days there and I wish we stayed there the whole time. The private beach , paddle board and kayak was a great way treat. A ways from town and totally worth it! The harvest cafe was next door and the food/salad was very fresh. Book it before it’s gone. Thank you again and we can’t wait for our return.

Thanks Brandi for your kind words.   It was our pleasure having you stay with us!     Can’t wait to welcome you back to the island one day.

We loved our stay at Casa Nova. It was peaceful and tranquil. The breakfast in the morning was an extra bonus, and the honor bar is genius.

Thanks Lana for the review,  we appreciate it and so glad to hear you enjoyed your stay

Nova and Kevin were amazing hosts. It was perfect to relax and decompress. I would stay here in a heartbeat and the value was absolutely fantastic. Thank you so much! 🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽

Thanks Jonathan for the kind words.   We are so glad you were able to relax and decompress.

Kevin and Nova were incredible hosts. They run their place like a hotel. Daily housekeeping, mini (honor) bar, etc. they have us great recommendations and were very nice people. We’ll be coming back!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and can’t wait to welcome you back to the island!

Beautiful B&B cabanas right on a private beach. Lovely hosts that had great recommendations!  Nova booked dinner reservations and a private excursion for us!  Would highly recommend and would definitely stay here again!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us and hope one day to see you back in Belize

Kevin & Nova (honorable mention: Gizmo) along with housekeeping, Roxy, were amazing! Home-cooked breakfast daily. Honor system of beverages and spirits. Beautiful rooms, amazing private beach with great sunset views. Nova was very responsive via text. Golf carts through their connect MK Rentals was perfect as well. Picked us up right at the airport. The location is on Secret Beach, it is ROCKY! However, there’s a lot to do on that side of the island, even if you decided to stay in. We will absolutely be back!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay with us at Casa Nova Cabanas….we look forward to welcoming you back to Belize one day!

LOVED this spot and Kevin and Nova were awesome hosts! Such a cute little community with 4 cabanas and breakfast included. Highly recommend! We will be back.

We are so glad you enjoyed and can’t wait to welcome you back one day!

My husband & I stayed here on our honeymoon and Kevin & Nova were amazing hosts! They were so warm and welcoming throughout our stay. The housekeeper even had flowers and towel swan on our bed when we arrived. The breakfast every morning made by Nova was really great and service with coffee from Kevin was always on point. They recommended a golf cart rental company that met us at the airport with our cart and gave us directions to Casa Nova. The accommodations and room were very modern, clean and cozy. Love the private beach option, as well as being next to all the restaurants and bars in Secret Beach. They also gave recommendations for places to go and offered to help arrange snorkeling or fishing excursions if we were interested. I would highly recommend Casa Nova for your stay in Secret Beach, you won't regret it. We are already looking forward to coming back for a stay soon!

Thanks for the kind words,  we are so glad you enjoyed your stay and look forward to welcoming you back to the island one day.

We stumbled across Casa Nova by chance and loved our stay. Gorgeous scenery, close enough to activities and most importantly relaxing. Looking forward to staying there again.

We are so glad you stumbled upon Casa Nova Cabanas!    Can’t wait to have you return one day.

Hands down the best Airbnb experience I’ve ever had - Kevin and Nova are the best hosts, so communicative and helpful and welcoming! Their location on secret beach is unbeatable (although a ways from town, which was perfect for us). Their serene private beach with paddle boards and kayaks was unbeatable! The delicious daily breakfast was included and such a great way to start our day. When a tour we had booked fell through, nova helped us book an even better private option that picked up right from their dock! Truly. This is a once in a lifetime accommodation. Can’t wait to come back! Thanks Kevin and Nova for sharing your slice of heaven with us!

Thank you for the kind words,   Can’t wait to see you back on the island

We loved our stay at Casa Nova! I wouldn't have wanted to be anywhere else. It was so quiet and calm and Kevin and Nova were the best hosts ever. The complimentary breakfast was the best touch. The palapa at the end of the pier was the best place to unwind.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay at casa nova cabanas,   We hope one day we see you back on the island….thanks again for staying with us ❤️❤️

Our stay was extremely welcoming and personal. The property was wonderfully maintained with beautiful surroundings at every turn.  Mani and Mirium provided excellent food and service while Nova and Kevin patiently entertained all questions related to our amazing stay on the island.  Our week could have not been any more perfect!

Thanks again for spending your vacation with us,  it was a pleasure to have you stay with us.

We had a wonderful time with Kevin & Nova at Casa Nova! They were excellent hosts throughout our stay. We were only here 2 nights, but wished we could stay forever. We really appreciated the included breakfast, private beach with a dock and lounge chairs, and chance to stay a little after checkout to lay out since we had time to spare. The staff (Manny and Myriel) were extremely kind and delivered excellent service (housekeeping and meals). There were two dogs on-site who were friendly. The rooms were in great condition with a waterfall shower, Netflix, Wi-Fi, and since there are only 4 cabanas we felt very private and treated individually which was wonderful. We truly couldn’t have asked for anything better. The room was smaller, without a microwave (we didn’t mind too much), and on the nights they don’t serve dinner your only options are a few places on Secret Beach which are a little pricey and close around 5. We are definitely staying here again if we come back!

We are so glad you enjoyed your time with us at casa nova cabanas,  hopefully one day we can welcome you back to the island

We had a great couple days. Very relaxing with perfect surroundings, accommodations, and staff.  Breakfast on site was perfect way to start each day. We look forward to returning in the future.

My friend and I selected this home on the island of San Pedro, during a best friend vacation trip. Family members warned us about our safety traveling to Belize. If you can learn anything from this review, it is the amount of safety Kevin and Nova provided. While we cannot say enough about the private beach, the quiet cabana, the tropical frozen drinks, what truly mattered to us was An instant rescue after a broken down golf cart,  a home cooked meal, and countless recommendations for good services from good people on the island. Kevin and Nova took care of us throughout our entire stay. We will be returning again and we hope this recommendation can reduce the stigma for young girls traveling alone.

Thanks again for choosing to stay with us for your best friend vacation,   We couldn’t have asked for more perfect guests!!    Miss you already and hope we see you back on the island one day

Truly the most amazing place to stay. Kevin and Nova are absolutely amazing hosts- great people, so kind and thoughtful. The location is perfect, close to good food and drinks or very easy to stay at the house. Absolutely stunning place to be. Super clean and cute, a/c works great. A true paradise. Huge thanks to JC for making this trip what is was too, so helpful and thoughtful. We can’t say enough good things, we will absolutely be back!

Thanks Julia for the kind words,  we can’t wait to welcome you back to the island one day….hugs from all of us at cnc

Every review on this place is true!  Its like staying at a luxury resort, but there are only 4 total units. Contact them directly for a better rate than ABnB

Thanks for the kind words and for choosing to stay at Casa Nova Cabanas

First, San Pedro, Ambergris Caye is a wonderful and beautiful place. This was a truly amazing experience that was elevated by our stay at Casa Nova. Kevin, Nova, and the staff are a wonderful group of people. We were treated like friends and couldn’t be more comfortable! Casa Nova bungalows are modern and have the amenities you would desire on an island vacation. Kevin and Nova were fabulous hosts and they provided a 5 star experience. Jose Carlos (JC) who is the manager/bartender was great! JC made us feel comfortable and he was very attentive. JC was a great bartender making us the best island style cocktails and my favorite, his micheladas!!! JC is a great bartender, but he's just a great guy!!! Samuel, Casa Nova’s on-site chef cooked a delicious breakfast for us each morning, which is included with the stay, by-the-way! We had dinner twice during our stay at Casa Nova and Samuel didn’t disappoint with his seafood dishes. Evelyn was our sweet housekeeper, just another nice person. She would sneak into our room each morning as we were having breakfast and took care of our mess. Eveyln went above and beyond taking care of our room! Secret beach, where Casa Nova is located, is home to several bars which are lots of fun during the day for a hangout. You can sit at the bar or hangout at tables located in the water. Our favorite lunch hangout was Aurora’s Bar and Grill. Kevin and Nova suggested this little bar on the beach, which is about a 10 minute walk from Casa Nova. Aurora, Evan, and Mags are awesome people and the shrimp tacos were perfect. Great prices and great company! I can’t say enough about Kevin, Nova, and the staff, I could probably write a couple pages, but I won’t. We feel like we have made friends for life and we are planning to go back this summer. Truly a 5 star experience with quality people!!!

We are so glad you decided to Stay with us at cnc, you arrived as strangers but left as friends ! From all of us at cnc we say thanks for the kind words and look forward to welcoming you back one day.

Casa Nova is absolutely a beautiful Boutique Hotel on a private beach with an endless view of the Caribbean sea. Sit on the dock and read a book or watch the sunset, take an early morning swim or just do nothing. Kevin, Nova and the staff will make your stay unforgettable. So much I can write about but honestly I will be repeating what every other review has stated.  You just have to see for yourself. 5 STARS. Thank you to all at Casa Nova. March/22

Thanks for the kind words,  from all of us at Casa Nova Cabanas we say thanks once again for spending your vacation time with us.

I wish we stayed here longer! This place is beautiful and perfect for a relaxing getaway! JC was so friendly and catered to our every need. Evelyn was so kind and friendly. We will definitely stay here again!

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay,  and most definitely we are appreciative of our staff that made your stay special…hoping we see you back on the island one day!

Tropical paradise!!!! Believe the other reviews this place is heaven on earth. We celebrated my birthday here and it was unforgettable, they set up flowers and champagne for me as a surprise, everyone is so thoughtful and the attention to every detail of our stay was so impressive. Kevin & Nova treated us like family. We wanted to stay here forever!!! Our only complaint is the beds are very firm and not comfortable. A mattress pad would go very far! It’s a bit of a drive from San Pedro but totally worth the peace and privacy.

Thanks Julia for the kind words,   We are so glad you enjoyed your stay.    We appreciate the feedback on the beds and we will look into options for someone that prefers a little softer bed.     We hope to see you back on the island one day!!

Let me tell you something, Casa Nova is the best! This was our first time coming to the western side of the island and man were we happy we did! The cabanas are beautiful and it’s so nice to have the beach right outside. The property is so relaxing and well kept. Now let me get to my other favorite part of our stay… Kevin and Nova! They are so such kind and just overall amazing people. Easily accessible, fast communication, and just awesome to be around! Oh and they have amazing suggestions for food. The staff, JC and Evelin are also so friendly and equally as incredible. We will be back and if you’re going to be in San Pedro do yourself a favor and stay there as well!

We are so glad that all of us at casa nova cabanas made your stay on the west side of Ambergris caye a memorable one.    We look forward to seeing you back on the island one day…hugs

Kevin and Nova’s place is perfect for an island getaway. The cabanas have a little beach with day beds, kayaks, paddle boards, making it a perfect private hideout with pristine blue waters. The location is great with bars and restaurants nearby for the day time. Town is ~45 mins by golf cart on not the best lit road, but don’t let this deter you, it’s not a biggie and there are some restaurants that are a little closer for dinner. Nova also makes a lovely dinner if you rather not venture out. The staff is wonderful (JC makes a killer piña colada) and the dogs make you feel right at home. We’ll be back!

Thanks for the kind words, we look forward to seeing you back one day!

I would stay here again tomorrow. Kevin and Nova are kind, gracious hosts. They were incredibly accommodating in setting up a day on the boat, golf cart rental, and even lended us toiletry items we had forgotten.  They were more than willing to go the extra bit to make our stay great, and communication with them was quick and simple. Their cabanas are clean and comfortable, and are right on its own private little beach. The bars of Secret Beach are just a short walk down the beach. This is a great option for staying at Secret Beach.

We are so glad you enjoyed your stay,  it was such a pleasure to meet you and hopefully one day we see you back in Belize!    Maya & Gizmo send their 💕 💕

We booked this Airbnb because of the incredible reviews. Some even claimed that the stay deserved 6 stars; I can confirm that this is absolutely true. If you are staying in San Pedro, you should, with 100% absolute certainty, stay at Kevin & Nora's place. The beach was absolutely gorgeous; the water was so clear. You will not be able to find a better beach location that this (especially if you are interested in swimming). Kevin & Nora have so many connections on the island. They helped us book a snorkeling trip, a golf cart (which was brought right to us at the Airbnb), and a driver to and from the airport. The included breakfast is absolutely delicious--and customizable. They are incredibly thoughtful and caring. I cannot recommend this stay enough! Just book it now. You will not regret it.

Thanks Alexandria for the kind words,  we loved having you stay with us and so glad your trip to Belize was enjoyable!   We hope to see you back on the island one day,  hugs from all of us

Casa Nova Cabanas is hands down the greatest AirBnB I’ve ever stayed at. Ever. 5 stars is not enough. Nova, Kevin, Manny, and Miriam are the most hospitable and fun hosts I’ve ever had. We felt like we were leaving family when we departed. The amenities, cooking, and atmosphere are world class. Shout out to the Barracuda fish plate! If you plan to stay in Secret Beach and/or San Pedro this is a MUST.

Thank you for the kind words!!   We loved having you as guests....now family!!    Until next time💕💕

Kevin and Nova are excellent hosts! A wealth of knowledge and tremendous hospitality. After a few days in Placencia and a few more in San Pedro Town, we rounded out our two-week trip to Belize at Secret Beach. This was our first time visiting Belize. We loved it! When we arrived, our hosts greeted us with warm welcomes. Kevin delivered our bags from the golf cart to our room. Nova offered us a nice rum punch. Then we had a couple more :) We met a family that was just finishing their stay, this was their last day/night. They gave us the low down on all of the delicious meals they had while staying there. We enjoyed dinner with them. They all had massages at the end of the pier, under the palapa. Of course, we had to sign up for that, too! It was totally worth it! I believe there are four rooms total: two beachfront and two immediately behind/adjacent to the beachfront rooms. Our first night we were in one of the back rooms. It was very nice, but... We moved to the beachfront room once the previous party left. It was a spectacular view to wake up to! Myriam provided us breakfast just outside our room on the veranda overlooking the beach. it was great! Both rooms are great choices, but if available, go for the beachfront! We took one of the kayaks for a ride north to check out some properties. Among all the marine life we saw, we spotted a little stingray! As this was both an exploration and property hunting trip for us, we did not spend much time at Casa Nova Cabanas aside from the aforementioned experiences. However, we would have still enjoyed the stay if we were around to relax more. There are plenty of places to sunbathe, amenities to enjoy the water, and local establishments for food and drink. While Kevin and Nova are the hosts, they are supported by great staff! Myriam provided us with amazing meals and desserts, kept the coffee coming in the morning, and freshened our room every day. Elder served us some excellent drinks and maintained the beach like a large Zen garden. Even if/when we do have our own slice of paradise on Ambergris Caye, I wouldn't be surprised if we book another stay at Casa Nova Cabanas. Or at the least, stop by for a meal or a drink if we can bribe our way in :) Thanks for a great time! Don and Frannie

Where to start? At the beginning I suppose... After our initial Airbnb cancelled on us we sat at the drawing board the night before our 6a flight departed and stumbled upon Casa Nova. We booked and no less than 20 minutes later we had full confirmation from Kevin and Nova and all the details we needed to make our way from BZE to San Pedro the next day! Kevin and Nova were extremely communicative and beyond helpful in every way. They were ready and waiting for us upon our arrival on the island hopper, and offered transport for half the price of an island taxi. Casa Nova truly has everything you could want and more - breakfast is provided by the outstanding resident chef, Miriam, (as well as dinner - which is not to be missed!), there is also a full bar complete with the best stories from Elder the bartender! We were even able to rent a golf cart for the day to explore San Pedro! If you want a beautiful, private beach to relax at by day and to fall asleep to the sound of waves at night, this is the spot! Look no further!

Thanks again Bethany & Owen for choosing Casa Nova Cabanas to stay with in Belize.    We loved having you here and hopefully one day you choose Belize again for vacation.    Myriam, Elder, Maya, Gizmo, kevin and myself all send💕💕

Wonderful quiet and beautiful place Good for relaxing and also to hit the bars and restraunts close by

Wow! Nova and Kevin have only been taking guests since November 2019, but they already have it down to a science. They were able to have their great property manager, Manuel, pick us up from the airport for $20US - well worth it! He showed us great places to check out on the ~30 minute golf cart ride to the cabanas. The cabanas themselves are immaculate, beautifully designed and surprisingly thick walls. They’re right on the beach and a quick walk to the nearby Secret Beach bars. Miriam, Manuels’s wife, cooks amazing complimentary breakfasts each morning. You can rent one of their golf carts or hang out by the beach. Miriam also sometimes cooks great dinners for an additional fee. Nova also knows half the island and can help you book excursions. We had such a wonderful time and will definitely be back!

Unforgettable stay, far exceeded our expectations, a dreamy, quiet, peaceful place. Thank you for organizing the surprise birthday dinner on the dock, it will be unforgettable!! Generous and delicious breakfast (thank you Myriam) and for the palace-like service (thank you Manuel). 100% recommended!

Séjour inoubliable, au delà de nos attentes, un endroit de rêve, calme, paisible. Merci pour l’organisation du dîner d’anniversaire surprise sur le ponton, cela restera inoubliable!! Petit déjeuner généreux et délicieux (merci Myriam) et pour le service digne d’un palace (merci Manuel). A recommander à 100%!

Honestly I don't even know where to begin. Kevin and Nova communicated with us and made a great impression even before we met them! Everything was made super easy for us! Their property was absolutely breathtaking (Better than the pictures which is hard to believe)! Manuel and Miriam made us delicious breakfast every morning and made sure all of needs were being met! Kevin had great bar/restaurant suggestions for us (we went to the same bar next door everyday)! My boyfriend at the time thought the place was so beautiful that he even proposed in Kevin and Novas beautiful palapa! Also we can't forget to mention Maya and Gizmo who live on site and stole our hearts! We will definitely be back❤️❤️❤️

Beyond my expectations and now one of our favorite beaches to relax. Kevin & Nova communicate quickly and are available to help answer questions about the Caye, tours, etc.  “M & M”, the wonderful staff, kept the rooms spotless and cooked breakfast...French pressed Belize coffee, fresh fruit and the most delicious omelets. This location has the best beach on the island and is a 5 minute walk to the Secret Beach bars/restaurants which had many daytime activities. You can also rent a golf cart if you need to travel to San Pedro for a day trip of shopping and dining. We fell in love with Belize and we’re already planning our next trip back to the Caye.

Cannot recommend this place highly enough. An amazing experience from start to finish. Comfortable accommodations, ideal location near secret beach, and the most welcoming hosts imaginable. Added bonus if you love dogs.

Kevin and Nora exceeded my expectations of the stay! Manuel and his wife are outstanding hosts and great cooks from the complimentary breakfast to the amazing dinners if you wanted them. I went in a solo trip for my 40th Birthday 🎂 and they treated me like family. I would definitely stay at there place again! I wouldn’t have wanted any other way to celebrate 🎉 my 40th!

If there would be a 6* they would deserve it! From beginning (we had some troubles getting on the island) to the end (bringing us to the next place we stayed), Nova, Kevin, Manuel and Miriam were taking so good care of us! Amazing hospitality, best food for breakfast and a dinner (highly recommend to go for the Shrimp Curry) from Chef Miriam made it an unforgettable 4-days stay. It is still a hidden place at Secret Beach and we loved to escape there... Thanks to all of you - this will stay in our memories as a great place!!! 👍😃

This place is STUNNING!! There's only 2 places to stay on secret beach and this is one of them.  It's more secluded and private than anywhere else.  Amazing couple! The groundskeepers and chefs are phenomenal! The food is delicious if you choose to eat there.  They have really done it right. Their hospitality is unlike anywhere else. We will definitely be back.

Can’t say enough great things about Kevin and Novas place. The hosts and accommodations are incredible. Great communication, wonderful location.
