About this property

Private Belizean Beachfront Residence Reef View

Imagine a man who loved his house so much that he brought it all the way from the mainland, across 35 miles of sea, planting it in this beautiful spot on the Isla Bonita, 4.2 miles north of San Pedro. This gem was the first house on this entire stretch of beach. It is a true Caribbean home, that awaits you next to the sea!

This is a totally renovated, 3-bedroom, 3-bath house with a spacious living/dining room, and a modern kitchen. it can accommodate 6-12 people comfortably. It has a large wraparound deck which faces the reef just beyond the front gate. The sea breeze makes it a great place to hang out and enjoy the sun and the sea; and the reef beckons one to kayak and snorkel and fish. There are horseshoe pits, corn hole and ham socksFishing trips, tours to amazing snorkeling and diving sites as well as adventures to the mainland to visit Mayan ruins, can be taken right from the front door of the iguana house. Or you can rent a (non-motorized) watercraft and have your own adventure on the reef!

This is a neighborhood house and, although you are about three and a half miles from San Pedro, you’ll find friendly neighbors, great restaurants and a convenient grocery store within walking distance. If you need to go to town, we strongly encourage guests to rent a golf cart for their stay. Additionally, there is a regular coastal ferry service which makes the run to and from town. Private water taxis are also available. Golf carts can be rented by the day or the week and, although the roads can be rough, are often the most convenient option.

It’s private at the Iguana House, but not remote.

Some of the rates you might anticipate are as follows:

Weekly rate for golf cart: appx $250/week

Carrier flights: appx. $90.00us, one way, per person, to or from

The owner Chris is committed to providing you with the orientation, support and availability that will make your Caribbean vacation wonderful.

Great location
Our stay at the Igauna House was delightful! The house itself is very comfortable and we loved the history, the expansive porch and long walks on the beach. Chris and Mary Alice were very attentive to our questions before the trip and while we were there. We loved the location with it’s proximity to secret beach and the restaurants north of the bridge. They provide covered parking for the golf carts which proved to be wonderful given we had unusual rainy weather while there. It was a delightful family trip for us and I’d highly recommend booking the Iguana House for your trip to Ambergris Caye!

Wonderful!
This house was a perfect getaway! Lots of room for the whole family. Close enough to town to get things you need and go out to dinner yet far enough away for peace and solitude. Some nice restaurants close by as well. Highlights for us where fishing for permit and swimming with manatees! Close to secret beach which the kids loved and some nice resorts that let you swim in the pools if you dine there. You can walk to mangrove fishing and catch some barracuda and bone fish. Half Moon Caye is a must see if you are a nature/snorkel lover (Amigos Del Mar was amazing!) Also yoga over the water at close by Akbol resort. We will back!

Amazing hosts! Overall a good experience!
The hosts were so great in their communication with us and also helped us get a larger golf cart that was delivered to the house. We had a few minor upsets, the AC not seeming to work as well as we wanted, a leak in the master bedroom ceiling from the shower upstairs (not a big deal, just didn't use the upstairs shower), the wifi was a bit spotty, and the washer not draining. Nothing major and Chris was quick to respond to help out. I know since things are just opening up again since COVID, not everything would be perfect, so that in mind the place fit our needs and it was close to Secret Beach which was a bonus! Overall, we had a great time and had everything we needed. One little thing I would add to make it just a bit better would be to clean up the beach in front of the house. There was a lot of debris and sea grass that was washed up so my kids couldn't play in the sand right in front of the house so they ended up going down a bit where it was cleaner to play. Again, not a big deal, just a suggestion to make others stay better.

We had a great time at Iguana House!
It's the perfect location - both close enough and far enough away from town for us. Many dining options just a short walk or golf cart ride away without the hustle of town. The setting on the beach is just perfect and we spent a lot of time on the porch enjoying the view. The house itself has what you need - neither fancy nor plain. It's just right. Really great to have a bathroom for each room.

Hi, I’m Chris. I love fly fishing with my black labs. I live in Wyoming and spend as much time as I can in the wilderness. I have a passion for saltwater fishing and love Belize. The Iguana House is the perfect place for me to experience what I love and share it with others.
