Blue Bay Cottages is a beautiful peaceful and quiet location. The room is very clean and has everything you need. The owner , Francis, is very nice and knowledgeable about the island and he goes out of his way to make sure the accommodations are great and answer questions you may have. I couldn’t have picked a better place to stay. We will definitely be coming back and staying at this location again.

Exceeded expectations! We stayed in the cottage with the king bed and AC and this place is clean, good bed and shower, and is a stand alone 5 star review. Francis, the gentleman that owns and operates the place is one of the best hosts I’ve ever had. Wonderful local knowledge, runs a great snorkeling/ boat tour company and made my wife and I feel very well taken care of. If I could give the place 6 stars I would

Quiet, cozy, and comfortable! One of very few locally owned places and Francis and family are amazing. Very welcoming and helpful! The AC worked great, the bayside view was amazing waking up to the sounds of all the birds in the mangroves. It’s close enough to get into town quick but far enough away to relax. They provide bikes for all guests which makes seeing the island much easier! Would recommend 100/100 and will be back to stay on my next visit.

Great stay

We stayed for 2 weeks. The cottage is away from the crowds. It is quiet, just a short walk / bike ride away from restaurants. There are 2 bikes to use. We loved riding the bikes! The cottage is very clean. We recommend staying here. FYI, the food on the island is fantastic

Francis is a such warm and thoughtful host. He greeted us with a complimentary pick up (and drop off) at the ferry and made sure we had a wonderful time. This is the only belizean owned waterfront property on the island, and I highly recommend this lovely hidden gem.

Good stay!

Great spot! Was surprised how well thought out the unit was. Nice bed, fresh water to drink, modern shower, good AC. Having bikes for us to use was clutch! Francis took us in the morning to our Water Taxi which was very nice. Thanks!

This property is a hidden treasure. Francis the house host was very friendly, helpful and responsive. The property is immaculate, quiet, and peaceful. This is also a great place to stay if you want a nice quiet home cooked meal. I give it a 9 out of 10.

Francis was knowledgable about the marine life having a degree in marine biology and being a park warden for 11 years. Everything looked as it was in the pictures and the room was excellent. Oil for cooking provided as well as everything you needed to make smoothies and meals. Friendly safe compound with use of bikes and kayaks.

Let me first say that the owner Francis is one of the best people and most accommodating host I’ve dealt with. Very clean, safe, quiet place on the water. Gated resort with bikes. On the south side of island away from the hustle and bustle. We will be staying here again. We stayed in the Moody Blues cabin and it was so nice clean and all was just great. Highly recommended!!!’n Derek

Best Place & Owners. Serenity, but near the action

Our stay at Blue Bay Cottages was amazing. The owners live on-site and are very helpful and friendly. They give you all the privacy you want, too. They're one of if not the only local lodging rental owners on Caye Caulker - so support them. He used to work in marine biology for the island, and is very knowledgable about the area and committed to respecting it. This also meant he gave us great suggestions on where to go to find a great beach and other cools stuff; when/where to take one of his well-kept kayaks; and respectable local businesses, behaviours, etc. They have well-maintained bikes for guest use on-site with locks. He has a nice dock and boat that he uses for guest snorkeling (and I presume fishing) tours. The dock is next to a little mangrove island that is bird central after sunset. Cabin was very comfortable, A/C worked great, etc., though we didn't spend much time indoors. There's a veranda on the roof you get to by stairs that provides great views. When we come back, we definitely hope to stay with them again. Can't thank them enough!
