Leeside Rooms:
A fine guest house located on the laid back island of Caye Caulker, off the coast of Belize and close to the world's second largest living barrier reef. Leeside Rooms include two waterfront efficiency units and a three bedroom two-level house located just north of the water taxi pier on the quiet lee side of the village - right next door to Belize Diving Services. From Caye Caulker
it is a 40 minute water taxi ride to the mainland of Belize where guests can enjoy zip-lining, cave tubing, explore Mayan ruins, eco-tour, go deep sea fishing, snorkel, dive, visit the zoo - or just read a book and relax. :)
We are encouraging a small marine sanctuary which is emerging right at the Leeside dock area. Without even getting in the water you can enjoy observing black spiny urchins, sea horses, the odd-looking batfish, sting rays, juvenile barricuda, red snapper, crabs, infant conch, herons, egrets, and a host of other marine life in their natural habitat. DISCLAIMER: Belize - though a lovely country - is not America or Europe; it is a developing country, and as such, there are many things we do not have control over. Caye Caulker is a tiny island off the coast of Belize. Please, understand that if you are looking for all the comforts and luxuries you find in America, then you may want to stay in a resort on San Pedro or at an Americanized hotel on the island. We try to keep our prices affordable and prefer to give our guests a more native experience, so we do not have air conditioning in THE LARGEST unit, Leeside Del Sol (the other two units do have air conditioning) and although it is normally quiet, this unit is not soundproof (the other two units are more soundproof) and there is construction all over this tiny island all the time. We do not issue refunds, and especially for things we have no control over, like weather, noise, bugs and other nature, etc. NO REFUNDS - we will not be bullied by guests threatening us with bad ratings (a growing trend) because there is construction on the island, or bad weather, or sand fleas, allergic reactions, bad food, petty crime, or they have bad experiences. Lock the doors, make sure no one follows you home, do not allow anyone in the house that is not a registered guest. Do not flash your wealth - smart phones, fancy cameras and electronics attract thieves and druggies. Take the same precautions and use the same wisdom as you would use in Jamaica or the British Virgin Islands. Like any Caribbean Island, Caye Caulker has its downfalls - and petty crime, extreme heat, bugs, lack of amenities, loud music, bad food occasionally and construction noise are all a part of this island life.
