The Good first—lovely pool, Alvin was quick to help us out with a kayak and helped us with our luggage on arrival, the pier is nice with a lovely little artificial reef with lots of life underneath it (we saw moray eels and a yellow stingray, as well as fish and crabs galore). The AC worked well and the view of the sea and pool from the suite’s two balconies was lovely.
The Bad—Probably the worst thing was that the king size bed in the Primary bedroom was hard as a rock. We both woke up with arms asleep because the bed was that hard. Alvin advised us against drinking the water in the condo which meant buying lots of water ourselves. I can’t imagine staying here for more than a couple nights because there is no dishwasher, no washer or dryer for clothing.
The furniture and rugs are very stained. The tile parts of the floor had been scrubbed very clean by the cleaners but there were dirty light switches and walls. The bathrooms are small and stale, lacking any natural light (no window). Towels and washcloths are old and worn. The refrigerator has lots of rusted spots on the outside. All of this would have been negligible if the price was half what it was. But you can get a lot more quality accommodations than this for this price on Ambergris.
