Never Disappoints
This was our second time staying at this property and everything went very well. We enjoyed our first trip enough to book a return several years later. Once again it met our expectations for a large group and we never felt in each others way. The management company had the home provisioned as we requested and everything else within the property functioned as expected. We will return again.

Amazing place, will be back!
The place is absolutely amazing, great location, every amenity you need. First time staying in Belize, vacationed with three other couples and all eight of us loved the house, had more than enough room and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. Close to great restaurants and not to far from town. Ester and Cesar were so helpful, accommodating and quick to respond. I would highly recommend this property for families or couples.

Multi family perfection
We had such a blast at casa Amarillo. It’s a great space w a chill vibe. Ester is perfection she is quick to respond and she is like a magician and was able to get us into restaurants, on boats and riding in golf carts. Her efficient capabilities made the trip amazing. We loved the island. Great meals at Hungry grouper, blue water grill, and Maxie’s. We adored the Truck Stop and blue bayou!! Hire a boat to take you to secret beach, way better than driving.

My husband and I stayed at Casa Amarillo in November as an early Christmas present for ourselves. Ambergris Caye is an amazing place to visit and our hosts where fabulous! The guest house is very comfortable and the pool was great for cooling off in. We would definitely go again.

Felt like home away from home
We have visited Belize twice and found our stay at Casa Amarillo perfect! The house is clean and spacious. The pool and beach area provide the extra space you need to enjoy your stay. Marlena the housekeeper is a doll. Cooks great Belizean food and provides daily services we didn't receive on our last stay at a different VRBO property. The owners were wonderfully helpful prior to our stay. We would definitely stay here again.

Island living
You'll get a true taste of Belizean life in this property. The location works great if you want to be away from the hustle and bustle of San Pedro, it's about a 20 minute golf cart ride to the center of town. There are some good restuarant options nearby, don't miss the Drink & Drive, it's fun! We had limited cooking opportunities in the kitchens, as it was not as fully stocked of a kitchen to cook as we are used to. The appliances (dishwaser, stove, washer/dryer, coffee maker) are all a bit dated, but mostly operational once you know what to do. AC works great which is critical! Pool and dock were fantastic, our crew did lots of great fishing off the dock at all hours of the day. Thank you to Ester who was a fantastic concierge for all of our many questions and needs!

My Mother, my brother, my sister and her husband and I rented the lower level. We loved it. The 3 bedrooms were spacious enough for us all. We loved the private pool! The dock was awesome. My brother fished off the dock and caught us dinner one night. We rented a golf cart and it was handy to go to the stores and restaurants. We went snorkeling and Suya tours picked us up off our dock! The snorkeling is fantastic! We saw nurse sharks, stingray, turtles and even an eel. The coral is beautiful. Thanks to Marfta, Robert and of course the incredibly helpful Rosa.

Multi-Generational Family Vacation to San Pedro
We had a truly amazing stay at Casa Amarillo! All of the staff at Pelican (Ester in particular) were knowledgeable and exceedingly helpful. They arranged everything for us-flights to/from the island, golf cart rental, a private chef, and excursions-we just had to show up and enjoy our time. The property was beautiful, as advertised. We spent our afternoons in the private pool. Cesar, the groundskeeper, was attentive and even sprayed for mosquitoes for us when we asked. San Pedro was a fun town to explore, with lots of unique dining options. We did a private snorkel/fishing charter to Hol Chan and the guys took a second fishing charter that was beyond successful! We took our catch to Margie and Kenny's Hangout, where they turned it into a personal dinner for our family. Mariceli cooked 3 amazing meals for us-we'd highly recommend her!

Spring Break
Loved this property! The outdoor space is amazing and we actually liked that it was in a quieter neighborhood and outside of town a bit. Ester was extremely helpful and very responsive. Grounds keeper visited daily and maintained outdoor space and pool. We were pleasantly surprised by how large and deep the pool is, not sure many houses have a private pool this size. Our teenage boys enjoyed fishing off the dock and caught some awesome fish - they even snorkeled a bit off the dock. Favorite restaurants were Blue Water Grill, Hidden Treasure, Coolbeans (breakfast), The Baker (breakfast) Elvi’s, Someplace South - honestly never had a bad meal! Loved the fruit and veggie stands and we found a few stands that had fresh salsa and guacamole-yum! Hol Chan and shark alley were awesome and a must do! Belize is fantastic and we will definitely return!

Perfect Property for large group
We were so pleased with our stay at Casa Amarillo and Ambergris Caye. The communication leading up to the trip was well done and upon our arrival we were greeted by Rosa. Rosa was exceptional and managed to get our 2 families, golf carts and luggage safely to the home with ease. The highlight of the property is by far the dock and view. We spent time every day enjoying the exceptional view and hammocks at the end of the dock. Marfa was wonderful as well. She cooked delicious meals for us 3 nights. She also made us salsa and guacamole daily, upon our request. We did several outings with Incommunicada Tours. The beach barbecue was our favorite. We would absolutely recommend this property. It is in a great location, has an amazing view/dock, the pool is a huge bonus after a day of swimming in salt water and the staff is delightful. We are eager to return!

Amazing Vacation!
Casa Amarillo was perfect for our needs! The house has plenty of space to spread out. We pretty much lived near the pool under the palapa. The dock was so nice to have for sunrises, sunsets, excursion pick-ups, etc. The location of the house was great. It was far enough away to be quiet and secluded. However, within a few minute drive, you start to reach restaurants and bars. Downtown took 15-20 minutes. My husband and I were there for two weeks. Some friends joined for most of the stay while others visited the first week and a second set of friends the next week. Despite the shift change, Ester was so patient and accommodating. She was super helpful with everything from flights to reservations to recommendations. We are so thankful for Ester and the rest of the teams help. Belize did not disappoint and we'll absolutely be back! We wouldn't hesitate to rent Casa Amarillo again.

We just spent 11 nites at Amarillo. It is great. You have a caretaker, Marlayna, who will cook for you. $5/head plus you pay for the food. Cheap. Daily maid service and yard care. Private pool, as well as a private dock that runs out into the ocean. We saw rays, octupus, puffer fish, baracuda, bonefish, permit, shark and a host of other critters that call that part of the ocean home. Definitely take the snorkel trip to shark ray alley. Very cool. You get to swim with and pet wild, huge nurse sharks and manta rays. The snorkelling on the marine reserve is spectacular. Tons to do and see in San Pedro which is loads of fun. I am an avid flyfisherman and my guide picked me up and dropped me off at our dock the 4 days I fished. Cheap. $300 per day for 8 hours. I hooked 2 permit and landed one. My spouse caught 4 barracuda the day she came fishing with me, including a 35-40 pounder. I caught countless bonefish to the point I didn't want to fish for them anymore. The main floor is best suited for 2 couples and 2 children. The third bedroom has 2 single beds. Kitchen, dining area, entertainment room and access to the pool and dock. Nice covered outside seating area with bar b q is poolside. Upstairs are 2 more bedrooms, another kitchen, dining room. outside wrap around veranda. 2 baths plus an outside bathroom with shower which u will use lots. Accommodated 4 couples very nicely. You must have a golf cart as you are about 2 miles from town. 2 four seater golf carts cost us $940 for 11 days. Pharmacy, grocery stores, restaurants and bars and lots of shopping in San Pedro. We flew in on Tropic Air return to Belize City for $80 each. They had some deal going apparently so we flew versus taking the boat. All good. Can't hesitate to recommend the place. I'll be back.

Peaceful, Beautiful, EXTRAORDINARY!
We were three families (our friends and their two teens, my husband and I and our two teens, and my sister and her six-year-old) and we LOVED this house. There is an upstairs with two bedrooms and a full kitchen, and a downstairs with three bedrooms and a full kitchen, each with their own living areas and bathrooms, and separate entrances. It was a perfect combination of privacy and also community space, with the pool area and palapa seating area, plus an outdoor bathroom and shower, in the shared space out back. Also out back was a terrific volleyball net/manicured sandy area and then a long sturdy dock, with seating at the end and stairs to the water! The house is located about 15 minute golf cart drive (golf carts are driven almost exclusively on Ambergris Caye) to San Pedro town, which had all the services you would want) but there is a well-stocked little store about 5 minutes away, and several resorts within walking distance for meals/drinks if you like!). Most of our excursions and our water taxi picked us up right at the house's private dock! We loved how quiet and tranquil the area of the house was-- very residential-feeling, and very safe-feeling as well! Everything was clean and well-organized, and a groundskeeper visited daily to clean the pool, rake the sand, and generally maintain the property. We stayed for two weeks and a housekeeping service came in the middle, which was perfect. The management was INCREDIBLE!!!! Esther got us organized with our golf cart rentals, four different AMAZING excursions, a Christmas dinner cooked in the house, as well as water taxis to and from Belize City. She was 100% available for any question or requests the whole time. I cannot say enough good things about her and the rest of the staff, and the tour people she coordinated for us (Snorkeling! Cave tubing! Shark petting! Rum punch! Freshly-made ceviche! Mayan Ruins! Giant turtles! Seahorses! The list goes on and on!). Truly an unforgettable, absolutely wonderful vacation, and this house and Esther were central to the whole experience! 10 out of 5 stars!! I would not hesitate to stay here again! It's un-Belizable!!! :D

Private paradise
We had a phenomenal time here. We were 8 adult friends and the space had plenty of space for everyone to spread out inside and out. The pool was lovely and the private dock was incredible to get up and watch the sun rise from. But the support we got from Ester and Wilbert from Pelican Reef Property management was truly the standout. Ester was available before and during our stay for ALL of my questions and requests, and they both really went above and beyond to make the stay special - Esther helped us book a private chef and massages as well as gave us countless other suggestions, and Wilbert surprised us with coconuts to drink from and found another hammock for us to use when we asked! Even when we were having major mosquito issues he came through and helped by fogging multiple times a day & providing burning coils to help at night. Only thing to keep in mind is that it is about a 20-30 minute golf cart ride out from town in the opposite direction of thinks like Truck Stop and Secret Beach. We loved that it was this remote, but it did mean any adventures we took were a longer one. We loved every minute.

Perfect house for our family
This house was perfect for our family vacation with 10 people. Adults and teenagers. With an upstairs unit with two bedrooms for the adults and a downstairs unit with three bedrooms the teenagers are there in space. The pool was great. The dock access was convenient to have pick ups app for excursions. The service from the concierge and groundskeeping was absolutely fantastic anything we needed they were responsive and available for. I’m told that they’re gonna be doing some renovations and updating on this house but we did not find it to be very outdated. We’re also flexible comfortable travelers and not bougie

Location is great. Calm part of town great views. Pool deck and interior could use some renovations now that the pandemic is over. Love have access to the dock and getting picked up by boat for our excursions. Water is not swimmable directly in front of the house but can be accessed just down the street. Rent a gold cart to get around the island.

Fabulous experience!
Reservation, check in, and communication throughout our stay was exceptional! Ester went above and beyond to assist in arranging details of our arrival and departure and was quick to respond when we needed fresh towels or water refills. The home was beautiful and clean and the ground were attended to every day with great care. I highly recommend and will definitely work with Pelican Reef Mgmt on our next trip!
