Where do I begin....From the time we saw this beautiful villa on Airbnb from the moment we checked out, after a week long stay, Simon was just an email away and so helpful with making our vacation (& our months long planning) seamless & so enjoyable. Simon arranged our flights to/from the island and our taxi to/from the villa and SO MUCH MORE!! We are already planning our next trip to Ambergris Caye & would not stay anywhere else!
The house is by far the best on the beach. It's exactly as the pictures show. The 2 master suites are identical (the beds are so comfy) with a private door in each, leading to the wrap around porch. The kitchen is just like home. Everything you need is right there! The air conditioner is awesome & so is the stereo system with speakers outside to enjoy your favorite tunes while swimming or laying out. I was surprised by the many channels to choose from when we felt like watching tv. Lots of movie channels.
The best part about staying at Anil Mar was meeting Adam, Hellen and their kiddos Chris & Jordan. They made our stay better than expected. Adam took great care of the property & was there to help us with our smallest request (like how to turn on the outside speakers.) He took us on a day of snorkeling in his boat & was so knowledgeable about the island, sharing with us the history of the island & pointing out things that we otherwise would have missed. We became fast friends & will enjoy keeping in touch throughout the years.
We traveled to Belize for my brothers wedding which took place right there on the beach at Anil Mar. It was breathtakingly beautiful! We hired a wedding planner (very reasonable) and they set everything up the day of the wedding and made it magical!!
Lastly, we enjoyed massages at Anil Mar, set up by Elena at Sunrise Property. We requested a certain day & time and Elena made it happen. The masseuses were awesome & one of the best massages any of us have had. What a great way to end an amazing week in beautiful San Pedro!
Whether you're planning a relaxing vacation or a special event (we did both) Anil Mar is a hidden treasure! I can't say enough about Simon & his team for making us feel welcome & making sure everything was perfect!! Wish we were still there & are very excited to return!
Cheers,
Kerbi
