The Spoonbill House was a phenomenal experience - Not far from the airstrip and about a 15-20 min walk from the hustle and bustle of the village and a 10-15 min bike ride. The house has everything you need from a beautiful hot water shower to coffee maker, toaster, blender etc. It was a home away from home. There are a few supermarkets close by for anything you need and the neighborhood is absolutely delightful - much quieter then the resort areas of the island! There are many dogs that hang out in the area and even visit you while you are staying on the property - (perfect for canine lovers) and we loved that the pups bark to notify you of passers by. The beds and linens were in abundance, clean and uber comfy - Maurice and Monique were wonderful - we ate at their restaurant numerous times (Wish Willies) and really enjoyed the private dock! These are wonderful people and we couldn't feel more welcome !!! On a side note - if you are a light sleeper bring ear plugs cause those beautiful tropical birds are a bit vocal and they start at sunrise (i personally enjoyed the coos, singing, sounds) I would also like to mention that Monique is the president of the Caye Caulker Humane Society and is doing an exceptional job with the island animals ...
If you want the comforts of home but still want to embrace island life - this is the place to choose - I cannot WAIT to go back and visit - I already miss the "good mornings", the food, the sounds, and the GO SLOW island lifestyle !!!!
