"The property has nice photos that must be several years old. When we arrived there was a crack running down the middle of the front door, the towels and bed sheets were stained, the concrete awning was crumbling, paint was peeling off the walls and ceiling, and everything metal was very rusty. This property has the potential to be nice but has clearly not been maintained since its initial listing. We ended up leaving and staying elsewhere."

For the price, this was a great place to stay especially long term. Very close to the local airport which is convenient but does mean that the village is a bit of a walk. Fortunately, a bicycle is included so travel around the island easy. Another bonus is that the place is very quiet. As for the unit itself, in general it was as advertised. Full kitchen although basic with limited cookware. Also no toaster. Plenty of hot water but be advised that water pressure for the shower is very low. No washer available on site so if you need to do laundry you will have to use one of the many laundry services which are not located close by. One needs to be aware that the plumbing for sewage on Caye Caulker is limited so no flushing of any paper products down the toilet. Given all that it was still a very good place to stay.
Efficiency style room with free bikes in quiet area
Tucked away from the busyness of downtown, the Island The Island Cabanas are no frills & quiet efficiency style rooms. The thing we loved most was access to bicycles. We used them constantly! The worst thing was the water pressure. Great value overall.
