Looking for a nice reasonably priced place on the beach with A/C. Need a place that has two bedrooms. What about Caribbean villas or banana beach? Any other suggestions on things to do snorkeling, fishing, etc. Thanks........

Jay,

Several of the condos will probably work for you. Banana Beach is excellent but has only one-bedroom units. Villas at Banyan Bay, which is near Banana Beach, has beautiful two-bedroom units with jacuzzis. This is the same Mar de Tumbo beach which is very nice. Caribbean Villas is not a condo (it's a hotel, a bit older than Banana Beach and Banyan Villas) but I believe it does have a couple of two-bedroom apartments. Nice location, nice grounds, super-nice management, no pool but a nice little beach area with an artificial reef to attract some fish to shore.

Hi!
We just got back a little over a week ago, and stayed at the Tradewinds Paradise Villas. We were very happy with the accomodations and even more happy with the reasonable rate. Yes, they have two bedroom units. They all have fully equipped kitchens with blenders, toasters, etc. and you can also borrow a grill for your patio to grill all those wonderful fish you'll catch. The rooms are air conditioned and also have cable TV if you're traveling with kids. The pool was very nice, and it was conveniently located to town. They have security at night and if you choose to rent a golf cart while you are there, you have a small parking area for it right in front of your unit. They also have a laundry service so you can pack light. They have their own dock, and all the tours will pick you up right there. Also some artificial reefs for fish watching. We had a wonderful time.

we just got back a couple of weeks ago. We rented a condo at the Palms. [email protected]. It was the best place ever! We rented a one bedroom, it had a little den area that would work for one person. They have two bedrooms that have a loft as well. The pool is great. The condo opens onto a little private beach area, then a gate to the beach. There is a pier if you plan on diving. The rates were very competitive. They did nego the price with us. Everyone we spoke to that stayed there agreed that it was great. Good location next to Ramons so you can walk to everything. Have fun!

Just got back from 12 days on Ambergris. We stayed in a condominium called San Telmo #1 just north of Banyan Bay.It is nicely furnished with two bedrooms and two baths (ocean front master with queen bed and large bathroom, 2nd bedroom with a queen and bunk beds). Nicely furnished, fully outfitted kitchen and AC which we did use. We found the Banyan Bay dive shop very convenient for arranging tours and snorkeling trips. Go to the caye management website to check it out. You won't be sorry!
