2BR house in Caye Caulker

Vacation Home Blue Lotus- Gold Standard Certified - Houses for Rent in Caye Caulker, Belize

Wifi worked great. Place was very clean and spacious. The walls don't come all the way to to the ceiling so now carries and if someone has a light on in any of the rooms it lights up the rest. Bike rental from the property was nice and a great price though the bikes are a little rusty. Great places to eat nearby.

Thanks for the insight on the bikes we will be sure to have the property managers inspect. Due to the sea salt air things tend to rust much quicker. We do note in the listing that the ceilings do not extend to the ceiling in order to be transparent to all guests. Not sure if you missed that prior to booking but we hope it didn’t impact your stay too much. Safe travels! Don & Monique

Happy you enjoyed the location. We love that it’s not too far from the hustle and bustle but just far enough to enjoy some tropical island peace. Don & Monique

Fantastic place to stay- it was clean, spacious, has AC, and walkable to everything you need. The hosts were super friendly and responsive. Would definitely recommend this place to a friend!

We are so appreciative of your kind and positive review. We love our island home and just adore hearing that others enjoy it as well. Please come back again! Monique & Don

Excellent house on south end of island.  Easy to get around by bike.  Had a lovely stay.

So happy to hear you enjoyed your stay at the Blue Lotus. Thx for staying with us, hope yo see you again! Don & Monique

Glad you enjoyed your stay! Don & Monique

The location was perfect! Communication was great and transportation being set up for our arrival was very helpful. Would definitely recommend!!

Thank you so much for the kind words, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay with us. Please come back again soon! Don & Monique

Great stay very accommodating would book again in the future.

Yay, so glad you enjoyed your stay. We would welcome you back anytime! Monique & Don

We loved our stay at the Blue Lotus! It was spacious for a group of 4, super clean, and the property manager was friendly and helpful. There were plenty of towels & linens and the AC worked really well. The location is in a quiet area and right across from a yoga studio + brunch spot which we frequented. It is a further walk from "the rest of the island" in the heat. The only qualm I had was that although this is a 2 bedroom, the ceilings did not go all the way up so between the bedrooms and living room, we could hear everything!

Thabk you for the kind review, we are glad you had a pleasant visit! The open ceilings are noted in the listing and we always remind guests at the time of booking to review the listing and the about this space just in case. Happy you were able to enjoy your stay regardless! Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

Really enjoyed our stay here! The house was away from the busy parts of town so it was quiet but a short walk anywhere we needed to go. Would definitely stay here again!

Thank you for your kind review. We would love to welcome you back anytime! Monique & Don

Beautiful stay on southern Caye Caulker, outside the Main Streets so it was a bit quieter but still walking distance from everything we needed. The host had great recommendations. Thank you!

We are over the moon that you enjoyed your time with us. Please come back again! Don & Monique

Dan and Monique’s island getaway was amazing. Right outside of the hustle and bustle of the main island but only a golf cart ride away from all the attractions. The house was clean, well kept, offered plenty of towels and space, and Levita was excellent at coordinating with us our arrival and check-in!

Another beautiful stay at the blue lotus was spacious enough for the 4 of us this trip to stay comfortably. The added tv in the master room was a nice touch. Had all the kitchen supplies needed to cook meals at night.

Great location, house larger than we expected.

Thanks for the review, safe travels! Monique & Don

We enjoyed our stay for our family of four - worked great! Removed from the main part of the island which meant it was quiet and peaceful - but not too far! We walked the entire way to the split each day, and easily accessed restaurants and cafes. We rented a golf cart taxi when we got tired! Very easy and responsive hosts.

We are overjoyed that you had a wonderful time! Always a pleasure to host such a wonderful family. Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

This is a quiet and peaceful place! It is easy walking distance from all the attractions but far enough away that it is quiet and peaceful. The hosts had lots of helpful information for us and were  super proactive with helping us get organized with our taxis and other local recommendations!

Thank you for the kind review, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay. Don & Moniqie

We stayed a week in the Blue Lotus. The clean, comfortable, quiet home is spacious and comfortably furnished. You are in a quieter area but a short walk or bike ride from the core of the town. The large deck is great for sitting and laying in the hammock and listening to the birds as the breeze sways the palm trees! The kitchen is large and well equipped with pot, pans, dishes and small appliances. The hosts responded promptly to all questions and requests. The beds were comfortable and the rainfall shower had lots of hot water and water pressure. We would love to stay again sometime and highly recommend. And if you get a chance, definitely go to Bliss Beach!

Thank you for the thoughtful review. We are so happy you enjoyed the property and we couldn’t agree more Bliss Beach is one of our favourite spots too! Monique & Don

Loved our stay and the beauty and privacy of the home and location. I would highly recommend this lovely place to friends and family.

Yay! Love love love hearing that you enjoyed your stay. Please come back soon! Monique & Don

Loved this place.  I t was perfect for three nights!  We really enjoyed the locks.

Blue Lotus is a lovely place to stay on Caye Caulker! It's on a quite street on the south side so not right in the center of the village, but so clean, large, and nice for a family of four. We were able to walk everywhere but often took taxis because it was hot. The property has all the amenities we needed and comfortable beds. We did not do any cooking but the kitchen seemed well stocked. We loved sitting on the balcony and the hammock was lovely. Comfortable couch! Nice big bathroom and very clean. AC worked great, we stayed nice and cool. Nice tall ceilings, good air flow. We had breakfast across the road at Weezies once which was nice but usually walked to Axios Sun each morning. We spent a couple days at Iguana Reef beach and our favorite dinner was at Caribe Cafe. I requested a bike for our 11 year old but there were only adult bikes We were going to rent somewhere else but ended up just walking or taxiing. I would recommend this place!

Thank you for the kind and thorough review, we are so happy to hear the house worked for your family vacation. Monique & Don

We had a lovely time in Caye Caulker. The bnb was an easy walk to anywhere on the island and right across from yoga!!

So happy you enjoyed your stay and we hope the yoga mats at the house came in handy during your yoga sessions. Hope to see you again. Monique & Don

delightful modern house with a sunny verandah  looking into the trees- the perfect place for a holiday. The bikes were the best for getting around, making the island totally accessible and fun! The house is super comfy for 4 people, quiet and well furnished.

Thank you for your lovely review. We are delighted that the house met your expectations. We hope to see you again! Monique & Don

Very clean accommodation with quality amenities, the decoration is of very good taste and the bedding really comfortable. The team is very responsive and friendly. Everything would have been perfect and deserved 5 stars, if the 2 bedrooms (or at least the master bedroom) were closed up to the ceiling: unfortunately there is no privacy...

Logement très propre avec des équipements de qualité, la décoration est de très bon goût et la literie vraiment confortable. L’équipe est très réactive et avenante. Tout aurait été parfait et méritait 5 étoiles, si les 2 chambres (ou au moins la chambre principale) étaient fermées jusqu’au plafond: il n’y a malheureusement aucune intimité…

As you mentioned in your private note to us this is noted in the listing details as we try to be as transparent as possible. We indicate that the ceilings in the house are open minus the washroom. Of course all rooms have doors for privacy and there is a washroom that separates the master from the second bedroom so you are not side by side. We hope you were able to enjoy your vacation regardless. Safe travels! Don & Monique

We had a wonderful stay and found the house clean and spacious. We liked its location of being just out of the busy areas yet close to everything. We took advantage of the bikes and enjoyed cycling everywhere.  If we ever came back to Belize we would stay here again. We were also appreciative of being able to check in early.

We are so overjoyed that you had a wonderful stay at Vacation Home Blue Lotus. We can’t wait to host you again! Monique & Don

Disappointed to say the least. The bedrooms are not fully enclosed so you hear every noise in the living room and other bedroom. The walls do not go up to the ceiling! The only paper product was toilet paper! No paper towels, watered down hand soap, no body soap, no shampoo, no  salt, pepper, sugar, creamer. The previous guest left coffee. For the money I paid I am extremely disappointed. I reached out to the manager and she responded that the description of the house was accurate.

So sorry you felt you did not get what you expected. Each listing offers its own unique experience which why reviewing the listing details prior to making your reservation is critical. We understand our home may not be the perfect fit for everyone but we are pleased that most of our guests love our home and our overall experience. Don and Monique

Our stay for two was great, we enjoyed the privacy that you get from the home with a nice gate up front. The balcony was a nice area to relax on the hammock. There’s bikes on property to rent but it’s a very walkable island.

So happy you enjoyed the privacy and comfort of the Blue Lotus. We would love to have you come visit again any time! Don & Monique

We absolutely loved staying here! I really enjoyed the yoga classes across the street at Ceiba yoga in the morning. The area was secluded and peaceful, but still close to town. We felt right at home on the first day. Everything was clean, and the amenities were good quality. 10/10 would stay here again

So happy you took advantage of the yoga classes, they are the best way to start the day! Please come back soon! Monique & Don

Amazing place. Highly recommend staying here.

We are beyond happy you enjoyed the house. We welcome you back anytime! Monique & Don

Our stay at the Blue Lotus was amazing! Everything was just as advertised in the listing, and was the perfect place to stay on the Island. The location is walkable to all everything on the island, yet far enough removed from the core of the island so it was calm at peaceful.

So happy you enjoyed your stay! Please come visit us anytime. Monique & Don

We had a wonderful stay! The place was gorgeous and a good space. It’s close to the airport and the island is walkable if you choose not to rent a golf cart. The snorkel tours through Reel Rascals was a great connection as well!

We love knowing you had an enjoyable trip and that the house met your expectations. Hope to see you again soon! Monique & Don

Great, peaceful location. The bikes were a huge help to get around the island. The a/c & potable tap water were both a game changer. Thanks for a wonderful stay!

Yay! We love hearing that you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again soon! Monique & Don

Beautiful space, short bike ride from the main town area. Nice and quiet despite being close to the airport. You should definitely rent the bikes.  It’s worth noting that the ceilings are open in the whole house, so maybe not an ideal place for certain groups.

Thanks for the review Kari.  Yes as noted in the listing the ceilings are vaulted on all area except the washroom which we feel creates an open airy feel.  We vacation with our grown children and friends and it is never an issue but again it’s a personal preference.  All the best and safe travels!

Quiet place with supermarkets nearby. Very comfortable beds and pillows. Well-equipped kitchen

Lugar sossegado com supermercados próximos. Camas e almofadas muito confortáveis. Cozinha bem equipada

Thanks for visiting us! See you again hopefully. Don & Monique

Great stay! Blue Lotus felt like home away from home during our trip through Guatemala, Mexico & Belize. The house is much bigger than in the photos. Everything is clean, wonderful beds, nice reception, great location and very pleasant contact with Monique & Don. We'd love to come back! Lotte, Rob, Boet & Teddy

Geweldig verblijf! Blue Lotus voelde als home away from home tijdens onze reis door Guatemala, Mexico & Belize. Het huis is veel groter dan op de foto’s. Alles is schoon, heerlijke bedden, fijn ontvangst, top locatie en heel prettig contact met Monique & Don. Wij komen graag terug! Lotte, Rob, Boet & Teddie

Thank you so much, we are so happy that you enjoyed your stay. We would love to host you again, come back soon! Don & Monique

Thanks! We love our little piece of paradise. Monique & Don

The house on the small island is very peaceful.

Ngôi nhà trên Đảo nhỏ rất yên bình.

Great place on the quiet end of the island. The place was beautiful, even better than expected. We loved using the bikes to get around the island. We did 2 snorkeling trips, and a fishing trip, and had an afternoon at the Split! It was a wonderful trip!

Sounds like the perfect vacation for sure. So happy you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

It was beautiful place, very close to what the pictures were!

Glad you enjoyed your stay. Cone back soon! Don & Monique

Extremely close to the airport which is convenient. Quiet in the evenings, and had enough space. Recommend renting bikes to get back and forth from the rest of the island, it's about 10 minutes of riding to get to the main tourist areas. Would stay again

We are happy you enjoyed your stay. We agree the small airport is close by which is convenient, with luggage in hand it’s about a 3 minute walk. We also love that you aren’t bothered by any noise being as close as we are but you do get to sometimes see the planes take off if you are on the balcony which is neat. Hope to see you again! Don & Monique

We hope to never stay anywhere else but at The Blue Lotus whenever we visit Caye Caulker (which is our favorite place to visit)! This house is gorgeous, clean, private, has great AC, has 5 bikes available for rent, plus a huge perk of being right across the street from Weezie’s and have access to their dock for swimming or just hang out! We love Caye Caulker and now love that we have what feels like a home away from home.

Thank you so much for this amazing review. We LOVE it when our guests feel at home at the blue Lotus, it truly is an amazing spot that we are honoured to share. We can”t wait to see you again! Monique & Don

Had a great time in the Blue Lotus. Bikes were the perfect way of transportation on the island. Would reccomend. Thanks for having us!

Quiet, clean, great space. Excellent communication for our entire trip. Levita greeted us after a very long day. Glad we were away from the dusty, noisy center of town. Definitely rent the bikes even though they are a bit rusty!

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay. We welcome the insight on the bikes and will work with our property managers to determine if any need to be replaced. Monique & Don

Great place, perfect for our needs in Caye Caulker!! GO SLOW!! :)

The location was great! Walkable to the busy part of town with the restaurants and bars. A couple minutes to the Oceanside where the walk up the island to Ice and beans for coffee was wonderful. Was nice to have the option to rent bikes with baskets for our groceries. Loved that the yard is full of trees which had an abundance of birds and a couple of iguanas. Love to sit on the balcony in the morning with my coffee and bird watch. Hammock is a nice touch. Levita who checked us in was friendly and super helpful. Would highly recommend and would definitely stay at the Blue Lotus if we were to return.

Thank you for the lovely and thorough review. We can’t wait to host you again in the future. Don & Monique

Accessible to all the bars and restaurants yet private and quiet. The place was super clean and tidy and the bikes were so helpful! We really enjoyed our stay here and will definitely recommend it to others!

Thank you for your mind review.  We ate always happy to hear when our guests enjoy their stay at the Blue Lotus.  Come back soon!

GREAT place. It was spacious, clean, well-lit, solid Wi-Fi, nice porch and had a great shower. It's conveniently across the street from a cafe and morning yoga and around a 15 minute walk to the more "town" part. We were working remotely and it was perfect for what we needed.

Oh yay, we are so glad you enjoyed your stay in our little piece of paradise. Come back soon! Monique & Don

Lovely place and great communication from the hosts - we had a great stay.

This house is right next to the airport and at first we were nervous about the noise, but we couldn't hear the planes at all. The whole island of Caye Caulker is walkable and easy to get around. It's about a 15-20 minute walk from the ferry, or a 5 minute golf cart ride. The hosts were responsive and the house was very clean.

We love to sit on the balcony and watch the small planes fly away from the island. We are glad you enjoyed your stay, we hope to see you again! Monique & Don

The Blue Lotus was beautiful. The house was spacious and architecturally stunning inside. The shower was amazing (not a small thing when you spend all your days on the beach). We did a lot of cooking so the kitchen with all its amenities was great. Levita, who checked us in, was so helpful. She gave us lots of great recommendations and was always available to answer questions. The island was great. It rained quite a few of our days but we still made the most of it. Thank you so much for sharing your lovely house with us!

We are so so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay with us over the holidays. Please come again, we would be honoured to host you again in the future. Monique & Don

We had a great stay and loved eating across the street at Weezies, and rented bikes to get around the island. Nice and big and good amenities.  Would stay here again.

Happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. Hope to see you again! Don & Monique

the place was very spacious and conveniently located-we walked everywhere

Super cute and clean. Quiet location, very private.

We are glad you enjoyed your stay! Don & Monique

The Blue Lotus was a lovely home to stay at in Caye Caulker! It was very clean and comfortable! The kitchen was well equipped for preparing some of our own meals. It is about a 15min walk from the town centre so very peaceful. Would definitely book again in the future.

We are so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. We would love to welcome you back again! Don & Monique

We had a great stay! Levita was very helpful.  Very responsive with addressing any questions/ concerns ☺️

We agree our property managers do a fabulous job ensuring our guests are enjoying their stay. Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

Beautiful home for my stay this time. Host was very helpful and even stopped by to check on us before a tropical storm hit. House is private and about a 10 minute walk to the front street.

So happy you enjoyed your stay! Hope to see you again soon! Don & Monique

Blue Lotus was a great place in a great neighborhood! Very close to the airport. We ended up needing to stay a couple extra nights and the property mgmt. gal was very helpful in accommodating our needs. We felt safe through a tropical storm in the house. I would absolutely stay here again if visiting Caye Caulker!

We are so happy we were able to accommodate your request to stay longer. Even though the weather was a tad challenging during your stay we are glad the house made you feel secure, it’s one of the reasons we purchased it. Please come again, we would welcome hosting you again in the future! Don & Monique

This place is super nice and clean. Nice private location. Wouldn’t recommend this place for a group, the open ceiling makes it so you can hear everything. But for a family or couple. Would stay again

Glad you enjoyed your stay! You are right, as noted in the listing the home does have open vaulted ceilings but rest assured the washroom is fully enclosed for 100% privacy. Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

This was my second time to paradise, aka: Island of Caye Caulker. GO SLOW is the motto & they live by it! The Blue Lotus is a gem of a property and is stunning, tastefully decorated with a blend of modern comfort and Caribbean charm. The space was clean, with a well equip kitchen! The private balcony with hammock, table and chairs was a nice touch for morning coffee or a night cap drink! The location is quite and peaceful, away from the hustle and bustle and features WiFi & air conditioning. The hosts were exceptional and attentive to any needs we had during our stay!  If you are looking for a relaxing retreat do not look any further!! I am already planning another return trip!

Yay! We love it when our guests have a wonderful time!!! Looking forward to hosting you again !!!! Monique & Don

The house was very clean and peaceful! The local host was very helpful.

So happy you found the house peaceful and clean, we take pride in making your stay as serene as possible. We too love our property managers who always go above and beyond! Monique & Don

Don and Monique’s home is beautifully decorated and makes you feel like you’re at home away from home. It’s the perfect place to unplug and enjoy a slow-paced getaway.  Within walking distance to all restaurants and beaches.  We chose to rent a golf cart through Go Slow Golf Cart Rentals and found parking was extremely easy. .  The hammock was personally my favorite part of the property to relax and enjoy the sounds of the island.  I would definitely stay here again!

Thank you for your kind and thoughtful review! We are so so pleased that you enjoyed your stay. Welcome back any time! Monique & Don

If you're staying on Caye Caulker this place is great. It's just a few minutes from the water taxis and you can see the airport from the front gate. Check out Chef D's if you're looking for good food on the island. The place was spacious and the bathroom was incredible. You couldn't ask for more from a place and if I'm ever in caye caulker again I'll be staying here.

Thank you for the kind review! We would be happy and honoured to host you again! Monique & Don

The blue lotus was amazing! It exceeded my expectations. It was a very private location with everything we needed. It was about a 15 minute walk to the other end of the island. They recommended us to book with the French Angel expedition for snorkeling & it was so much fun. I would also recommend you booking with them! When we come back, we will definitely be booking here again.

Yay, we LOVE to hear our guests enjoyed their stay and we can’t wait to host you again. Monique & Don

Great spot to stay in Caye Caulker. Walkable to amenities, but far enough from the hustle and bustle that it's very peaceful. On warmer days taxis are pretty easy to find if needed. The house had the essentials and hosts were extremely responsive and accomodating (even with last minute changes to check in times due to flight issues). Great spot for a hammock when there is a breeze out. The water hose made rinsing dive gear easy and keyless entry was convenient. Air conditioning was great to have; don't panic if it's a little hot on arrival, once it cools initially it stays comfortable and cools quickly after a day out (with units off). The ceiling gap mentioned in the description was a bit bigger than we anticipated, but was not a problem for our group. However, if you have some early and late risers or kids that may have a bedtime it could be a slight issue as any lights or noise was shared throughout the house (besides bathroom which is enclosed).

Thanks for the thorough and honest review.  We always love the perspective of those who stay.  Hope to see you again!

We had an absolutely wonderful stay at The Blue Lotus and plan to return again in the future. The location is great and easy to get everywhere. It was perfect and the hosts are so responsive and have great local recommendations.

So happy you enjoyed your stay and we can’t wait to welcome you back! Don & Monique

My husband and I stayed at Don & Monique’s for a long weekend getaway in Caye Caulker. It was a perfect escape. The house is in a quiet area of the island which was perfect to escape the areas where most congregate during the day. The bikes to rent made getting around so easy and enjoyable. We didn’t want for anything. Would highly recommend this place for a stay!

We loved staying at Blue Lotus! Beautiful home and great location

We are so happy you enjoyed your stay- Safe travels home, hope to see you again! Monique & Don

The Blue Lotus was beautiful, very homey and comfy with all the amenities you need. AC was a huge relief at the end of hot day exploring Caye Caulker. You can walk or arrange golf cart taxi to bring you into town. We mostly got a taxi in for $10, and would meander home in the evening. A beautiful spot!

Thank you for the kovely review, we love herring how our guests enjoy their stay. Hope uou think of us again if you head back to Caye Caulker. Monique & Don

Beautiful little house, very walkable and has great ac!

Tranquil Paradise at Caye Caulker. This Airbnb gem offers a serene escape from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. The accommodations exceeded our expectations.Our cozy room was clean, comfortable, and thoughtfully decorated, providing the perfect retreat after a day of exploring the island. One of the highlights of our stay was the tranquil ambiance of the property. Whether lounging in the hammock or enjoying a refreshing dip in the crystal-clear waters of the nearby beach, every moment felt like a dream. The location of this Airbnb couldn't be better. Just about 5 minutes drive away on a golf cart, we had easy access to the island's best restaurants, shops, and activities. We will definitely be visiting again. I 100% recommend this jewel (Blue Lotus).

Awe thank you so much for this kind review, we too feel like our home is a true jewel. Looking forward to welcoming you back again! Monique & Don

We had a great time at Don and Monique's! The porch and yard were wonderful. We did not spend much time inside, but the house was comfortable. We would stay there again.

Don’t blame you at all for spending most of your time out and about exploring the island, soaking up all Caye Caulker has to offer! Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

Beautiful private spot, yet close enough to walk to all amenities! Loved the hammock on the east facing deck! Also was great to have RO water so we didn’t have to buy bottled water! Definitely recommend!

Thanks for the lovely review and we are happy to hear the hammock and the RO made tour stay enjoyable. Hope to see you again in the near future! Monique & Don

We had a wonderful stay here! The host went above and beyond at making us feel right at home.

Love to hear this type of review! Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

Great place to stay to make for a great vacation!

So happy you enjoyed your stay with us.  Come back any time!

Our stay was absolutely amazing. An unforgettable adventure. Thank-you for sharing your piece of lovliness with us Despite the sand fleas we loved it.

Yay, so happy you enjoyed yourself.  I agree the sandflies can be a bit of a nuisance but they come and go throughout the year, so it’s hit or miss.  They don’t bother some people at all and others seem to be a magnet (me included). They do sell some great island repellants in some of the shops.  If you visit us again I will forward you the details on where to find.

Happy to call the Blue Lotus home for the past 2 weeks. Hosts and management/housekeeping staff were all wonderful. Great communication and very accommodating. The place was unique and comfortable. Had everything we needed and more. A lot of thoughtful touches. I liked how it was closer to the airport and away from the busier end of the island. Would stay here again without hesitation!

Thank you for the kind review and we were so happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. We hope to see you again! Monique & Don

I would stay here again in a heartbeat. Lovely location among the trees. Yoga around the corner. Quiet area. Friendly check in.

So happy to hear you enjoyed your stay. We too love the location, and the yoga close by is definitely a bonus! Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

This Airbnb was very cozy, good lounging living room. Had all the things you needed for kitchen supplies. I will say if you’re going with a group of friends or families staying here just a heads up that the walls between the rooms and living room don’t go to the ceiling so you are able to hear one another regardless if the doors are closed. But all in all it was a lovely and clean location.

We really enjoyed our stay, even with all the rain!Such a lovely place!  It was really tidy and thoughtfully decorated and felt very cozy. It was a great place to hunker down. The only issues we had was a bit of trouble with the key pad getting in. Instuctions on where to tap to turn it on would be helpful. The other thing that made the stay a bit more interesting was the very colorful Rastafarian neighbor who liked to play music and sermons on a loud speaker during the day. We found it amusing, but others should be aware. That said, it was a perfect place for us and we would stay again!

Thanks for the great feedback, we always appreciate the insight. So happy you enjoyed your stay! Don & Monique

Really enjoyed our time at the Blue Lotus. Definitely will recommend to anyone traveling to Caye Caulker!

We are happy to hear you enjoyed your stay! Thanks for staying with us and we hope to see you again. Monique & Don

I didn’t really communicate with Don and Monique I text the co host for some extra towels  I was told the next day tht I couldn’t get any unless I paid for it  I didn’t understand tht it was four of us and we all 1 towel each for 3 days 2 nights tht was the only problem I had went tht

Thanks for the review, we appreciate all of the insights and feedback we receive.  As noted in the listing all registered guests receive one bath towel and one beach towel during their stay (we also give each guest a hand towel and face cloth as well).  For any visit of 5 days or longer we do provide free of any additional fees new fresh towels.  The extra fee is only for shorter stays like your own which was 2 nights.  We have these standards in place to minimize the over use of resources on the island.

Large open plan house: note, the bedrooms too (the cathedral ceiling extends above the bedrooms, it's better to know!). Quiet location and a little set back from the main street, but it's less than 5 minutes away with the bikes. The kitchen is relatively well equipped for cooking. We stayed for 2 weeks and had some small issues, which were all taken care of and resolved very quickly! Book without hesitation!

Grande maison à aire ouverte : notez, les chambres aussi (le plafond cathédrale s’étend au-dessus des chambres, vaut mieux savoir!). Emplacement calme et un peu en retrait par rapport à la rue principale, mais on y est en moins de 5 min avec les vélos. La cuisine est relativement bien équipée pour cuisiner. Nous avons séjourné pendant 2 semaines et nous avons eu quelques petits soucis, qui ont tous été pris en charge et résolus très rapidement! À réserver sans hésitation!

A great place to stay but make sure you hire a bike!

Glad you enjoyed your stay! We prefer to get around by bikes which is why we rent them on site but many guests prefer to walk or even rent a golf cart from a vendor on the island. Lots of options for sure!

Thank you for your kind words. Hope to see you again. Don & Monique

This is my second time booking this listing and Don & Monique did not disappoint! My family enjoyed their entire stay with not one complaint! Thank you again!!

We are so happy to have hosted your parents and are so glad they had a wonderful stay! All the best! Monique & Don

Had a lovely stay at Blue Lotus! The home was absolutely beautiful and exceeded our expectations. Also, the management company went above and beyond during our stay and was very communicative. The location is a bit secluded from the main area but is very peaceful. PlThere is an option to rent bikes, which we really appreciated and highly recommend!

Had a terrific time, comfortable beds, spacious and amazing set up. Would love to come stay again. Thanks!

So happy you enjoyed your stay! Thank you for the kind review, hope to see you again! Monique & Don

House very clean, location good and quiet, handling easy, everything great

Haus sehr sauber, Lage gut und ruhig, Abwicklung problemlos, alles toll

Thank you for the wonderful review! We hope to see you again! Monique & Don

The place was even better than we expected! They went above and beyond and left us a bottle of wine for our honeymoon. The island was absolutely amazing. Not a single bad experience! We can’t wait to go back!

Yay! Congrats again on your honeymoon and we can’t wait to host you again! Don & Monique

Great beautiful place in Caye Caulker. The apartments’s manager was very communicative and helpful. The place is beautiful, well decorated and clean. The kitchen is well equipped and very convenient. The only thing worth mentioning is that the apartment is a bit far (15 minutes walk- which in Caye Caulker dimensions might be considered as far). Really recommend this place and would come back in the future:)

Thank you for the lovely review.  We are happy you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon.

nice place, a little further away from the main area. we enjoyed our stay.

Thanks for staying with us!  Hope to see you again!

Great place to stay at during our belated honeymoon. Quiet and well appointed with a great local contact who helped arrange transportation to and from which made our travels super easy. Definitely would stay here upon our return to the island!

So happy to hear this belated honeymoon trip was a success although we had no doubt you would have a wonderful time!  Thanks for the shout out to our property managers who do an amazing job!  Looking forward to hosting you again!

Great place to stay! The property manager was always responsive and helpful during our stay. The place was exactly as described and super clean. The food on the island was delicious so we didn't actually get a chance to cook in the kitchen but there's a grocery store 5 min away that if you wanted to grab a few items to cook with. One note to future travelers is that you can't flush toilet paper down the toilet which is pretty common for us when traveling to different countries but if you're not the most comfortable you can always travel with a portable bidet.

So happy to hear that you had a wonderful time while in Caye Caulker.  We are definitely considering installing a bidet, so thank you for that insight.

Great location on the island: quiet but still easy to get around.  We had everything we needed and very enjoyed our stay. Local property managers were very helpful.

We could not agree more! Glad you enjoyed your stay! Monique & Don

The stay was pretty good and the place was clean. A couple issues: our driver didn’t show up at the airport so I guess the manager didn’t know we arrived so we couldn’t get into the place. Also, the rooms don’t have individual ceilings so you can hear everything from each others rooms. The bikes are a bit run down for the price you have to pay.

Thanks for the review Conner,  as mentioned to you in our private note, we have sourced another airport driver based on latest your experience.  This is the first time the driver was a miss so we are not sure what occurred.  Also we appreciate the insight on the bikes.  Since we are not on the island we rely on out property managers to ensure the bikes are in top condition, we will for sure look into this.

Blue Lotus is perfectly located. It’s far enough off the main drag to be quiet and peaceful, but close enough to walk to many restaurants and bars. The kitchen was extremely clean and had everything needed to prepare meals. The bicycles provided were well maintained, and got us through our stay with no issues. Caye Caulker is a beautiful island with probably the nicest, and friendliest people in the world. We are definitely coming back!

We are over the moon that you enjoyed your stay and so appreciate the positive review.  We hope to see you again!

We had an amazing time at Don & Monique's place. It is very large and comfortable, and the A/C was excellent. It is a bit away from the main road, but we enjoyed the walk into town, and for those interested there are bikes available through the listing or around town.

Thank you for your kind review Charles, we are so happy you enjoyed your stay! Don & Monique

Family of 4 stayed 11/18-11/22 2022 & very much enjoyed it. The island is great with amazing snorkeling/scuba locations, awesome food & friendly people. This is a large house that you need to walk up 15 steps.  From the house to The Split (northern most part of the island) is just under a mile so you can walk everywhere but taxi or bike/golf cart rental is probably best (golf cart rental is about 3x as much as 2 taxi rides for 4 people. This house did have bikes available to rent but we did not use). Early Nov is the end of the rainy season but they had several bigger storms right before & during our stay so the sand streets were very muddy. The house has a balcony with several chairs and a hammock. There is a bedroom with a queen bed & bedroom with two twins and an open concept kitchen, living and dining room.  Full sized fridge/freezer, microwave, coffee pot, stove/oven, tv, tiled shower. Do not flush the toilet paper. Bring your own shampoo/soap for shower. Very clean and cozy.

Thanks for the detailed review Brandon! Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

We loved the Blue Lotus! Check in was easy, Levita was there to meet us and explain everything about the house. Loved having the bikes to be able to get around the island. House is well equipped with great air conditioning. Neighborhood is quiet, safe and everyone is so friendly. Would definitely recommend!

So happy to hear you enjoyed your stay and we agree Levita is pretty amazing! Hope to host you again in the future! Monique & Don

This place was awesome! It is located in a quiet area, but the busy area of town is just a 5 minute bike ride away. The staff were extremely helpful with everything we needed and we had a great stay!

Thank you for your glowing review! Our goal is for the Blue Lotus to feel like home while you are there. Hope to see you again! Monique & Don

Wonderful home, very clean, accurate photos.  About a 7-10 min walk to the main strip/restaurants. We didn’t get bikes but they were available. Quiet location. Would definitely stay here again. Also appreciated Levita’s thorough explanation of everything in the home.
