Cayo Espanto

Our stay at Cayo Espanto was awesome. The staff treats you like royalty. Food is delicious and anything you want they provide. The bedding and pillows were so soft and cozy, you feel like you are sleeping on a cloud. Sit back, enjoy the beautiful view, drinks and have the time of your life.

Everything was perfect from the moment we were picked up at the San Pedro municipal dock to the return trip back to San Pedro. Our journey started when we were met at the dock by our houseman Kevin and the boat captain. The relaxing boat ride is less than 10 minutes from dock to dock. Upon arriving to the island we were greeted by the entire staff waving as we pulled up to our private dock. Everyone introduced themselves and provided the four or us with one of their frozen island specialty drinks. We stayed in the 2 bedroom, 2 bath Casa Aurora. The views from this villa were breathtaking. We experienced 100% total privacy our entire stay. The private plunge pool had plenty of room for four. The bedrooms were spacious, and the beds were more comfortable than our beds at home. A medium-sized living room separates the two bedrooms providing additional privacy. Linens, pillows, soaps, shampoos, etc. were top of the line. The large wrap around deck had two separate sunning areas with chaise lounge chairs and hammocks. The front bedroom had 180-degree views of the ocean. Your are literally steps from your own private beach area. The villa has a bar refrigerator stocked with soft drinks, water and several types of beers. Each meal is prepared by the professional chef based on the questionnaire you fill out prior to arrival. There were multiple choices for each meal and the food was prepared to perfection. Additional snacks, adult beverages, soft drinks, etc. were available around the clock. Everything we asked for arrived within minutes of being requested. Two housemen are assigned to each villa. Kevin and Jose were our housemen. Both have been with the island for ten years. They were extremely professional and maintaining your privacy while providing 5-star service was their main priority. We enjoyed our talks with them throughout our stay. Request them if you plan to stay and you won't be disappointed. This was our fifth trip to Belize and I can’t remember a more relaxed atmosphere than the time we spent at Casa Aurora. We will definitely return in the future!

We staying in the aurora villa with another couple and had an amazing time! The Villa was 2 bedroom with 2 bathrooms and had a living area in between which gave a nice element of privacy! The Villa was beautiful, well kept and clean! Housekeeping came several times a day and we never really saw them but we saw the results! Fresh towels, swept and clean, made beds! Our houseman Eddie and his helper Ronnie were just a call away and quick to respond to our every desire! We barely had to ask because they learned our favorites and always showed up at the right time to serve us! We loved the food so much and never got tired of the vast selection of offerings by Chef! He did a fantastic job and it clearly very skilled and creative. We never saw any other guest which was nice and private! The island is immaculate! We enjoyed the excursions arranged by the staff and did some amazing snorkeling at Hol Chan!

Cayo Espanto exceeded all of our high expectations. My wife and I have traveled the world and have stayed at the best hotels and Cayo Espanto honestly beat out what was our first choice for the most unique and exceptional experience. Our experience was made perfect by the entire staff but Rosita, general manager, Eddie or houseman and his assistant Brandon, chef Cynthia Murillo's and Wilson Vasquez, and boat captain German and his crew Geronimo and Max were truly exceptional. My wife, son, daughter in law and myself celebrated my wife's 80th birthday in a way she will never forget. In fact she is still attempting to call Edie on the walkie-talkie. We did two luxury boat trips on the Sarah Kate and Wow, the water was so clear the reef beautiful and the variety of fish endless. The picnic lunch was magical, having the bounty you caught prepared while you are enjoying a cold drink on another private island was incredible. If you want to stay in the perfect beach bungalow, with endless views of the Caribbean, be totally pampered and eat scrumptious food, then look no further than Cayo Espanto.

WOW OVER THE TOP LUXURY!!! How can we ever do another vacation after staying at Cayo Espanto! We stayed 4 nights with our teen girls ages 13 and 15. We were spoiled with the stunning private room. The most incredible meals and service! You can just do nothing and be spoiled or be adventurous! We chose both. We did 2 days of luxury at Sea, one diving day and one day of tubing for the girls. Each adventure was just picture perfect and exciting! The diving is so warm and clear. The snorkeling is just like being in a live aquarium. All the dive masters and boat guides are just the best of the best and so much fun! We hope we can return someday soon! It was incredible in every way!!!!
