The Sandcastle House, Tres Cocos is a gorgeous 3-story home which was recently thoroughly remodeled. It is located in the exclusive Tres Cocos neighborhood on Ambergris Caye, approximately 10 minutes from the town center. The home has a brand-new swimming pool and a beautifully built pier with a seating area and palapa for great relaxation right on the ocean.
The space
The Sandcastle House, offering a one-bed, one-bath unit located on the Sunset View, ground floor. There is a second one-bedroom located on the Ocean View side of the house, which could be occupied during your stay. The 2nd-floor home is occasionally occupied, but if not, guests are welcome to use the 2nd-floor and 3rd-floor verandas, which offer spectacular views of the ocean and sunset views.
These first level units offer a large open living room, a bedroom with a king bed, modern bathroom, and a spacious kitchen. There are AC split units to keep the home nice and cool. The home is beachfront with a fully fenced yard, a swimming pool, and a grill. The space between the fenced-in yard and private pier offers lots of beach sand for barefoot enjoyment.
This beautiful home has a great location, very close to town. If the Ocean View unit is occupied, the pool will be shared with these guests only. 2nd level guests are not using the pool.
Oceanview and Sunset view apartments can also be rented as one unit, see our listing, "Sandcastle Oceanfront with pool and stunning ocean views".
We can assist you with your domestic (Belize) travel and tours/excursions. We can assist in booking your flight from BZE to San Pedro. Golf carts are the main mode of transportation on Ambergris Caye/San Pedro and are perfect for exploring the island. We can make a golf cart reservation for you so your cart is waiting for you upon arrival.
Activities on Ambergris Caye/San Pedro are definitely water-related, as Belize has the second-largest barrier reef in the world. There are snorkeling and scuba diving trips just a short boat ride from shore. Flats fly fishing, reef fishing, or deep-sea fishing can be booked for half or full-day trips. There are 2 paddle boards at the house, and you can rent jet skis, kite boards, windsurfers, and bicycles by the hour. You can go parasailing or even book a helicopter tour. If you want to spend a relaxing day on the water aboard a catamaran or sailboat, we are happy to coordinate. There's even a casino on the island if you're feeling lucky! We can also schedule on-site services such as massage and a private chef.
If you want a different type of adventure, you may want to visit the mainland and be welcomed by the jungle! We can help coordinate transportation to the mainland from Ambergris Caye/San Pedro and a whole list of activities - Belize Zoo, ancient Mayan sites, cave tubing, zip lining, baboon sanctuary, hiking, rappelling, waterfalls, horseback riding, pontoon boating, butterfly farm, botanical garden.

This place is a gem with its gated compound, high ceiling well-appointed apartment and lovely location.We would return in a heartbeat :)Host are exceptional and we had a wonderful vacation with this as our homebase.
The beach front property was beautiful and well maintained. There many restaurants nearby. We rented a golf cart so we could travel both north and especially south on the island. Everyone we met in the course of our stay was friendly and helpful. We hope to visit this house and area again. It was a great vacation.
The villa is roomy and comfortable with lots of screened windows for plenty of air flow. We only used the air conditioning in the bedroom to sleep at night. It is right on the beach so we were able to walk to restaurants both north and south. The owner Kelly was a great help in getting us to his favorite dive shop, Chuck and Robbie's, which I would also highly recommend. But the villa is right on the main road so that there is traffic noise, the most annoying being construction trucks and motorcycles. You barely notice the golf cart sounds.
We highly recommend staying here. The owners are very kind and informative, they even made a reservation at a great restaurant for our anniversary! The furniture is very nice and comfortable especially the bed. The AC works great, but not needed very much as the open windows provided a nice breeze. There were several nice places to sit and enjoy the outdoors, including the end of a new dock, where the stars were amazing at night! It's also conveniently located just north of San Pedro. We will definitely return!
