Oceanfront Unit w/dock/pool/AC-free paddle boards -2 bed, 1 bath sleeps 6

Velento Rentals Management presents:
OCEAN FRONT
Sandy's Secret at Palmetto Beach, Avenida Mangle, Caye Caulker, Belize.

Sandy's Secret, a two bedroom unit, is located on the beach level and is Ocean Front! Sandy's has its own entrance. In addition, Sandy's was built using sound insulation in reinforced concrete, minimizing any noise from outside.

We have a security guard on site and our office hours are 8:00am - 6:00pm, so someone is always on hand to help with your needs. The office is immediately on your right as you walk through the gates to Palmetto Beach.

The apartment is light and airy, with incredible, impressive views of the beach, dock, sea and the reef beyond. It offers easy access to the Beach Path, which will take you right into the center of town by either a 5-10 minute bike ride, or a 10- 15 minute walk from town. A lovely small cafe is on the property.

Completed by Belizian craftsman, the workmanship gives you a total Caribbean feel. The floor plan includes two bedrooms, one with a queen bed and one with two twin beds that can be made into a King upon request. For convenience, depending on the group, we have added two futons for those who would rather not share a bed. All linens are 600 thread count; the full bathroom is always stocked with thick, plentiful towels and beach towels. Air conditioning is available as needed in all rooms and with individual preference in mind, each unit has a separate remote control. The kitchen is roomy and modern, stocked with whatever appliance you should need. The living area, which commands awesome views of the sea, has a flat screen TV, games, wi-fi and a movie library.

A few steps from the front door brings you to our man made beach area, jutting 50 feet into the sea, this provides another area in which to relax and enjoy the sun, there are a couple of palapas on the beach if you want to avoid the sun and corn hole as well as ladder toss to entertain you. Finally, just beyond the beach area, you come upon the 300 foot dock. With three separate entrances to the water below, there is room to dock your boat (if you have one!!), 6 pods extending outward for more room and a palapa at the end of the dock if you require shade. Covered with chaise lounges, you would be hard pressed to find a better place on Caye Caulker to just sit and relax, or watch the incredible sunsets.
Behind Sandy's is a tranquil palm grove with BBQ facilities including picnic tables and a giant Jenga game. Paddle boards and kayaks are available for free, Beer can be bought at the front desk by the bottle, the bucket or a whole case. You can also rent bikes and golf carts at the front desk or book tours with anyone of the many tour operators on the island for fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving or sunset sailing cruises, our staff are there to help. Bikes are available to rent at US $7.50 per bike, per day, We also rent golf carts but supply is limited. We recommend you reserve with us in advance.

Property was very clean, and the grounds are beautiful . Staff were fantastic! Recommendations for taxis and snorkeling /fishing, etc. we’re very good. We were well taken care of and felt safe. Located just far enough away from the city center for peace and quiet but within walking distance.

Beautiful
The staff were so helpful & accommodating. The grounds, pool & waterfront were always clean & beautiful. My only dislike which is not the properties fault were the sand flies, out of our group a few of us got them pretty bad. We prepared ourselves from them but it didn’t work.

It was super quiet, which was exactly what we wanted - close enough to walk to restaurants and shops, but far enough away to not hear them. Loved having a full kitchen and our own porch to sit on.

Family Beach Vacation
What a wonderful spot! Sandy’s gets 5🌟all the way around. Everything was so good we never even had to reach out to property management. Seamless check in/out. Quiet area, direct beach access, no bustle around the home at all. All staff were amazing if we needed anything. Home has everything you need and more. Quick stops at the stores for basic supplies was a breeze. Golf cart rental highly recommended from this spot. If you’re looking for a boat charter, look no farther than MisJak Charters (reach out to Dylan & Ken). Will definitely be back -Edmond, OK, USA

This was paradise!
The second we set foot in our property Sandy’s Secret it felt like home. The unit was beach side with a courtyard. It was immaculate and fully curated to fit any travellers! There are paddle boards and beach games right outside the courtyard. It comes with full acres to docks for a swim or chillaxin on long beach chairs! The front office is so professional and helpful to booking trips and or rent bikes and darts. We did a snorkeling trip full day with Beasean Sea Sandy our captain was awesome with the kids and us. We will definitely be back to Veneto properties more specifically Sandy’s Secret unit. At least this my youngest son’s dream;) He didn’t want to leave! Weezies restaurant who is our property was delicious to eat in or take out! Could not recommend enough this property! There are many pool la also on property ! GO SLOW ( the islands motto) Any questions Send me a message.

Lovely place but lock your windows
Rating Details: The property manager was more than helpful. The vacation rental was very clean. I was more than happy with the location. I was somewhat dissatisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We had the place for 4 days in March 2015. It is a lovely place. Michael was fine, and the house is nice. BUT we were robbed on our first night. The windows have metal bars on them, but they are apparently big enough for people to fit through. Make sure to close and lock the windows before going out. It's been robbed before, and I wish we had been given this advice. Also, the price is listed at $200 per night everywhere, but you're charged $225.

Incredible oceanfront home!
The entire stay was incredible. Super clean area. Friendly staff. Super convenient to have an on sight restaurant, serving fresh food any time of the day. Sandy's secret felt like the most prime lot on the property. Ocean front with a private yard. Dreamy. We'll be back!

Wonderful stay at Sandy's Secret
Lovely unit for our stay! Nicely stocked kitchen, beautiful grounds and views of the sea. Loved all of the outdoor seating options and the large dock. It was great to have the pool to cool off in! And we were able to walk to the village for meals or to a nearby market for grocery items. We realized we could take a path along the beach as well to reach the village. Staff was super helpful and friendly.

There was an issue with where we had booked and we were told upon arrival that they were moving us directly to another spot and it was a beautiful upgrade. Everyone was so kind and professional. Sandy’s secret was great. On the water. Perfect amenities in the unit. Air conditioning, beds, bathroom - all exceptional. Super clean. Felt safe and comfortable at all times and any questions regarding bikes, restaurants, or general were easily and professionally answered. Highly recommend.

Wonderful Home on Caye Cauilker!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was more than happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: My family of 5 (3 adults, 2 children) loved staying here. The location was a touch out of town, but taxis were cheap and easy to find if we didn't feel like walking. Staff are always available on the property, which made the stay super easy. The house itself is fantastic for a small group. We especially enjoyed going in the pools, playing beach games provided by the property, and hanging out on the dock. One day we borrowed boats from the property, and I appreciated that we didn't have to go through a rental company and could just use them for as long as we wanted (which wasn't long!).

Sandy's Secret is a magical place!
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: We fell in love with our rental unit, Sandy's Secret, as soon as we arrived at the Palmetto Beach enclave. Our spacious, bright accommodation had everything we needed and was just right for all three of us. The views from our expansive porch and the garden were equally beautiful. Deb and Tim were excellent at addressing all of my inquiries prior to booking and made the entire process very simple. They were incredibly kind and all-around fantastic to work with, and they well beyond met our expectations. The Valento staff made sure to link the two twin beds together to create a king bed upon arrival and were all incredibly warm and friendly. They always had a smile on their face and were willing to offer their assistance. We really enjoyed the serene surroundings and pool area, which was so refreshing. The units also share the most magnificent dock where we were able to see amazing sunrises and sunsets. Additionally, using the bikes made getting around town a breeze. We had such a wonderful stay at Sandy's that we even extended an extra day because it was that great. All of the Valento properties are just as beautiful, so we will definitely be returning for more adventures at their properties.

Fabulous location on Caye Caulker
Rating Details: The property manager was very helpful. The vacation rental was spotless. I was very happy with the location. I was very satisfied with the condition of the vacation rental. Overall, I recommend this vacation rental. Reviewer Comments: Our family of four loved this location. Sandy's Secret is directly on the beach, in a very quiet section of the island. We got up every morning and watched the sunrise from the dock. We next had our coffee on the veranda, enjoying the view. We would walk along the beach to get to the main area of the island for the activities of the day. At days end, we appreciated the quiet area and the excellent air conditioning in the rooms. As for activities on the island, we loved watching the sun set at the Iguana Inn, having the sting rays tickle our toes. We enjoyed exploring the many eateries on the island. We did the full day snorkeling tour and loved seeing the coral reefs and had the opportunity to see turtles.
