About this property

Gumbo Limbo - Sea-Esta Studio - Steps to the Ocean, Free Bikes, Free WiFi

Peaceful Studio with ocean view on the reef side.

This great little self-contained studio apartment is only a short walk from the village, yet far enough away to enjoy real peace and quiet.

The studio on the ground floor of the main house offers a semi-secluded accommodation experience and comes with owners dedicated to ensuring your stay is comfortable. Ideal for 1 or 2 people seeking a tropical hideaway, the studio is situated 65 feet from the beach. The gate in the small adjacent lot, allows for easy access to the beach. The Gumbo Limbo SEA-esta Studio features a combined living / bedroom with queen bed, lounge area and kitchenette with fridge, microwave and hot plate and AC. Private bath with hot and cold water.

Enjoy the breeze on the comfortable outdoor furniture on private large covered patio.
The oversized patio with tables, comfortable chairs and an outdoor grill plus complimentary bikes and WiFi make this little studio a terrific value.

There are many golf cart taxis on the island or you have complimentary bikes to ride. Also, it is only a 10 min. walk to the village.

We respect your privacy but are always available if you need something.

If you require more than one room, please check our other three rentals on the property. In addition to the Gumbo Limbo – Studio, the “Gumbo Limbo – Aria Kat Art Cabana“, the “Gumbo Limbo – Go Slow Cabana“, and the “Gumbo Limbo’s Dreaded Grape” will provide for all the space that you need for a vacation with family and friends!

My stay was tremendous. Gumbo Limbo is an amazing spot. Ben is very responsive and the Sea-Esta studio was very clean and welcoming. The WiFi was great and Ben offers free bikes and a free air pump. I would absolutely stay there again. Let me know if I can answer any specific questions as a guest.

Excellent Location and Hosts

We loved our stay and the Gumbo Limbo. Our hosts were incredibly attentive and prompt with responses. The location was also great because it’s a little removed from the most popular spots while not being far away at all, as well as super close to the water. Thanks for an incredible vacation!

Exactly As Expected

Solo traveler staying for a long weekend. The studio room was perfect. Check in process was easy and the room had everything I needed to be comfortable. I enjoy being a bit further from the split when I go and this fit the bill- bonus points for having bikes available to the guests! Tito the resident dog was the sweetest too!

Perfect for quite vacation

Second time staying at this fabulous little boutique resort. The owners are very gracious and welcoming and are available to help with anything you need. Our room was spotless and the location is perfect. You are a few steps to the beachfront walk and a few minutes walk to anywhere on the island. Thanks, Ben and Aria, we will be back.

Amazing Property

The property was lovely, the ocean breeze on the deck was amazing. So close to everything yet far enough away to get away from the hustle bustle. Ben and Aria were amazing hosts and met all our needs right away. It was the perfect home away from home especially with the dogs ❤️

Gumbo Limbo

The Gumbo Limbo studio apartment was perfect for us. We were close to the ocean and had bikes to explore the island. The bed was comfortable easy to sleep in. The neighboring resorts allowed us to use their docks, where we relaxed and swam everyday. We came for relaxation, but we did do one snorkeling trip with Ragga Sail. It was amazing. Food was amazing almost every where we tried. Try the places in the middle of the island.

Good value for your money. It is very close to the beach. Maybe 60 steps. You have access to the pier and beach chairs at the hotel next door. The room is clean and the kitchen worked great for making breakfasts and lunches. The air conditioning worked great. The wifi was a bit spotty at times but later at night we were able to watch a movie on a rainy night. The place is very quiet at night. The bikes were great for touring the island. The Main Street was maybe at most a 5 minute bike ride away. It took us 10 mins to get to the split. The grocery store was about a 3 min bike ride. It had everything we needed including microwave popcorn for our movie night. The only minor inconvenience was there was no where to hang up clothes- but we improvised a way to do that! A few more hooks in the bathroom and by the door would be great to help with organizing items (but not a necessity).

I really enjoyed my stay at Gumbo Limbo. I loved the location it was just far enough outside of town to be quiet but still walkable/bikeable. I lived they had free bikes to use the entire stay. I rode a bike everywhere. Ben met me at check in and went over everything I could possibly need to know. It was a very relaxing stay.

About the host

Hosted by Aria and Ben Pfeiffer

Host profile image

We will make your stay as amazing as we can!

We live on the Gumbo Limbo Property and we can either be available for a cocktail and a chat, or you will hardly see us at all – up to your preference.

However, we will always be available for questions and to attend to your needs.

We have 2 dogs on the property. A 7-year old Old English Sheepdog mix named Shadow (aka Fuzzy Butt), and Tito (aka "Dumbo Limbo") our 4-months old "Belizean Potlicker". If you like dogs, you will love those two fuzzies!

Why they chose this property

The Gumbo Limbo is in the perfect location on the island. Not far from the hustle and bustle of the village, yet far enough to enjoy peace and quiet and only steps from the ocean.
