I'm really bummed that I have to write a bad review on AirBNB this is my first. The house is very cute and clean so that's a plus. They also offered us a couple of free beers, really awesome. However there is very little privacy as you literally have to walk through the dinning area of the outside restaurant to the cabana. There are people dining about 20 feet away and it was honestly kind of awkward. We were woken up to the sound of saws cutting things in the morning, and a lot of random people on the property, maybe friends? Roommates? Not sure.
We were welcomed by Monique who was pleasant. We walked out to look at the menu and asked her partner if they had something for vegetarians and explained my boyfriend eats meat. He pointed us to the menu and we waited to place our order. Without placing our order we were brought to dishes that were... Not what we wanted... And we thought they were complimentary as we were never billed. Two days Later on our last night we were asked to pay $50 Belize of which we did refuse to pay.
The dock is very misleading from the photos. There is stagnant water around it (we had to walk through it) and a loose board nearly toppled me off into the stagnant water. My boyfriend's leg fell through when this happened. The whole thing is honestly very unsafe. Please fix this before someone gets injured, we're lucky that we didn't.
We just didn't have a positive experience... There are a lot of rules to staying at Monique's place including to sweep, strip the beds, do dishes, and take out the trash after requiring a $25 cleaning fee. Also had a girl come do 6 braids in the house (a total of 20 minutes) and came home to a note on the door saying no guests inside. Period.
Honestly...I'd get a hotel vs this so you don't have to pay extra for air conditioning, have a legit dock, don't get food you didn't order and then be asked for money, can enjoy your vacation with privacy and can have freedom to do as you please. I've stayed in AirBNB's all over the would and this was very disappointing for my guest and I.
