Villa Aurora - Scuba Diving - Snorkeling - Fishing

Description from the owner

ENJOY THREE OF THE ISLANDS' BEST RESTAURANTS AND A GROCERY STORE WITHIN WALKING DISTANCE OF OUR VILLA!

Indulge in a taste of tropical paradise at this prime Belizean getaway. With 5000 square feet of property for your enjoyment, this three story house is perfect to comfortably accommodate 10-12 people located at the fringes of the Caribbean Sea on Ambergris Caye, this completely BEACHFRONT villa offers many amenities to make your vacation to the island one that will keep you coming back again and again.

This home boasts two spacious balconies where the breathtaking view of the clear blue waters of the Caribbean Sea and egdes of t...he Barrier Reef is in front of your eyes. On the second floor patio, the large pool reaching down to 11 feet is available for anything from lap swimming to just splashing around in the refreshing water. However, there is an ample amount of room around the pool for relaxing in a chair or having a BBQ. Moving up, the third floor veranda has plenty of space as well to sit in a chair with a good book or to enjoy the amazing island breeze. Also, the flat roof shares incredible sunsets, views of the sea and lagoons for a place to just get away. We have added a beautiful owners unit on the ground floor connected to the villa to accomodate your extra guests. An additional fee would apply for this.

Villa Aurora wouldn't be complete without the 300 foot long private dock with a palapa at its boundaries for shade protection from sun and tropical rains. In addition, the space beneath offers benches to rest on after a long day of fishing or just to appreciate the tranquility from the wind and sea. Plus, there is a full length hammock where one can doze off. In fact, all you need is a couple pillows and blanket to have a camp out on the dock where you can admire the sparkle of millions of stars in the sky, a truly unique sight.

If you would like to swim or snorkel from the dock, there are stairs for easy access in and out from the shallow waters. This front dock is easily accessible by water taxis, dive boats, and fishing captains to make your stay a breeze, as a fun day of fishing, scuba diving or a afternoon in town is only a call away. Additionally, behind the house, the lagoon is situated where a short dock can be found. Also, for the avid fisherman, catches are obtainable off both docks.

Inside the grand villa, there are four bedrooms and three bathrooms, as well as a sofa bed for extra sleeping room. There is one bedroom on the second floor and three on the third, and all of the rooms have an expanse of space for your disposal to keep you always content. Two bedrooms on the third story have entrance to the veranda. The rooms present the outside from full length windows replacing a wall that allows the rays of the sun to flood the room all day. The bathrooms are connected to two of the third story rooms. The third bathroom is adjacent to the bedroom on the second story. All bathrooms have showers. In the master bathroom, there is a bathtub and colossal separate shower. This shower is exclusive because of its non-existent ceiling, meaning a washing in the warm, fresh air of the tropics, simply an extraordinary cleansing feeling.

Along with the rooms, there is a cozy living room where more than 90 channels are waiting from the cable television that you can watch from a snug couch. There is also an enormous kitchen (with all the essentials to create a delectable meal) that extendes to an area for dining. Lastly, this humble abode contains a laundry room with washer and dryer to make your vacation less complicated.

For all your vacation needs so that it is one filled with activities and fun, there are countless places and individuals to guide you on a fascinating experience. With a fishing captain, there are various spots in over 2000' of water less than 5 minutes from the dock within or past the reef that are teeming with massive fish that can be cooked back at the house. For fisherman, your haven for fishing is located extremely close. Also, snapper are available at the front dock and the lagoon is home to tarpon and barracuda. Other fish that can be caught inside or outside the reef include: marlin, tuna, snapper, grouper, dorado.Read more

  Two families with kids on vacation

  Left on 03/26/2013 for a stay in February 2013
  
  

  We had a fantastic stay at Villa aurora. The house was wonderful and quiet. We had everything we needed and a few very nice places places to eat in walking distance. The beach area in front was great for the kids. The caretaker was superb! He worked hard and was close at hand whenever we had a question. We never felt that he was in the way at all. It is a short water taxi ride into town. The "road" is really a dirt path and don't count on using it. Very little traffic and that was just fine with me. Pool is very deep so bring some sort of float if can.

  Villa aurora - simply amazing!

  Left on 04/15/2011 for a stay in February 2011
  
  

  My group of 10 friends stayed at the Villa aurora at the end of January/beginning of February and couldn’t have been happier with our choice. It was an amazing house, with a pool (11 feet deep!) and private dock, with 2 hammocks and 1 hammock chair. The main floor of the house (which was up one flight of stairs from the ground level) had a living room, kitchen with large dining table, bedroom and bathroom and opened out onto the patio where there was another large dining table, chase lounges and the pool. The second floor had three bedrooms and two bathrooms. The master bedroom was huge and the master bathroom was amazing with a large whirlpool tub and an open air shower (really cool!). Although, my wife and I had the master bedroom, we encouraged everyone in the house to take a least one shower in the open air shower. There was also a gigantic wrap-around porch on the second floor. The 3rd floor was essentially a roof deck. This was a great open space, although it would have been nice if there were some chairs, tables or hammocks up there.
  
  Shane and Brittany, who live in a unit attached at the back of the house, did a great job of taking care of all of our needs. The house came with a cell phone for our use while there. This was really handy as we could call for reservations, taxi pick ups, or call Shane/Brittany for random questions that we had.
  
  A few things that should be noted about the house that aren’t necessarily bad, but are things that you need to consider…
  1. The house is located about 5 miles north of town. This means that to head into the city you will be taking a water taxi. While these were very easy to use, they come at a cost of about $10us per person, although you could get a private one for a few dollars less if you have a large enough group.
  2. The main house is probably a little better suited for 8 people more so than 10, since there are only 4 bedrooms. The 5th bed is a pull out sofa sleeper in the living room. There is also an in-law unit to accommodate more people, but we did not use that.
  3. The water from the beach entry isn’t really suited for swimming as it is very shallow and covered with sea grass. However, you can definitely enjoy the water from the end of the dock.
