This unique octagonal house sits at tree top level just steps from the ocean on a quiet stretch of white sand beach 4 miles north of San Pedro; away from the tourist scene, but a short walk along the beach to wonderful restaurants, beach bars and a couple of little grocery stores. This is the ultimate location for diving, snorkeling or fishing, or just relaxing on the veranda looking out at the crystal clear turquoise water. There is a spectacular view of the waves breaking over the Meso American barrier reef, the second largest barrier reef in the world. We are a short golf cart ride to the lively San Pedro scene as well as many restaurants and beach bars along the way. We are located at the entrance to the famous (not so secret) Secret Beach road.The Tree House is the ideal spot for a romantic getaway, or for two couples or a small family. You’ll be living in a house, not a resort or condo, with all the comfort and privacy of home. The fully equipped kitchen will inspire you to prepare fresh caught fish and tropical fruit as you enjoy the ocean view. Both bedrooms have queen-sized beds. The living room is a comfortable place to relax and look out at the ocean. It has a couch that folds out to form a queen-sized bed. There is a 26 inch flat-screen TV with cable and multiple streaming platforms, and a Bluetooth speaker for your iPhone. and a landline. We have FiOS high-speed Internet. There is weekly maid service (or more frequently upon request). We have excellent air conditioning but the octagonal design and floor to ceiling windows of this unique house catch the ocean breezes so that our air-conditioning is seldom needed. Rubio, our caretaker, lives in a casita in the back of the property. You have your privacy, but he is there to assist you if needed. His chickens and friendly dogs give the place a homey, local feel. He will help you set up your kayak, or tell you the best places for snorkeling. The staff at Caye Management, our local management company, can answer any questions or book tours. They are available 24/7 in case of any problems. Our next door neighbor Geni at Coral Divers, is a dive master and tour guide. His boats sit next to our dock. Scuba Daze is nearby and can also arrange snorkeling and diving.
We try to be environmentally conscious and use plant based detergent and a minimum of plastic. Our water supply comes from rainwater stored in a cistern on the property. We ask that you bring a reusable water bottle. We provide a bubbler of bottled water to refill it. Please use the reusable shopping bags that we provide. You can swim or snorkel right off our dock. You can also take the kayaks out to the reef to swim and snorkel. Since they are sit-on-tops, it's not hard to get back in from the water. Or you can drive by golf cart to Secret Beach located directly across from us on the other side of the island. The staff at Caye management can arrange a golf cart rental. It is a great way to explore the island.
