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!!!
