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

This property was special from the beginning. Owner, Francis, picked us up at the water taxi terminal and helped us bring in our luggage. He was informative on good places to eat nearby and the basic layout of the town. The cottage was immaculate, on the ground floor and equipped with coffee, sugar and some beverages. Bikes were provided for us and everyday we went to town to walk the beach, sightsee, grocery shop and eat at restaurants. For $5 US you can get a roundtrip boat ride with your bike across to Northside Caye Caulker where there are several fun restaurants to dine in. There are lounge chairs to sit in on the ocean side of this property where it's also fun to bird watch. We hope to make it back to Blue Bay Cottage some winter in the future.

We stayed in the Blue Cottage Suite, which was a beautiful one bed studio apartment. Much to our chagrin, it rained three of the four days we were there, so we spent a lot of time in the room. I am so happy we were at Francis's home, and not a more traditional hotel type lodging. Lots of windows, two doors, a comfortable bed, TV with Roku, a great kitchen, including full refrigerator, fantastic kitchenware, everything we needed for a stay in room type trip. When it wasn't ready, we made great use of the provided bicycles, which were perfect for tooling around the island. I was very happy with our decision and would recommend this suite to others.

This property is unique- a quiet dead end street with fantastic ocean views! Birds and wildlife are easy to observe. After exploring the island, I believe we found the perfect place and host! Bikes were so helpful and Francis, the owner, has thought about every detail to make this a slice of heaven!

As soon as I walked on to the property I felt like family. The room was beautiful and very clean. I hated to leave and could have stayed forever. This was an amazing place to stay if you like seclusion. I felt like I was the only one on the island. Couldn’t have stayed anywhere better

Great place to relax! Property was nice, clean and quiet - off the main roads but close enough to walk or bike to everything. Bikes provided were so nice to have. Right next to the water and watching the sunset in the evenings was very relaxing. Francis was extremely helpful and kind. We would definitely stay here again!

Francis was a fantastic host providing us a shuttle from the Water taxi dock to the property and back. The property was beautiful with many custom touches including a fantastic shower, comfortable mattress and a couple Belikin to kick off our stay. Location was peaceful and private yet a simple bike ride to anywhere on the island. We loved exploring this Caribbean paradise.

We stayed at Blue Bay Cottage for 5 nights over New Years. It is a nice place, very clean and less than a year old. The first 2 days of our stay there was no running water due to a problem with the island’s water supply. I understand that is not a usual problem , but a failure with the island water pump. It was fixed during our stay But we also experienced power cuts daily , so not able to have AC every day. I have since found out that the electricity on the island has been a problem for some time. It was around 80 degrees and humid so we did miss the AC and ability to use fans at times. Other than those problems we did enjoy our stay , went on a snorkeling trip to the Ho Chan Marine Preserve and swam with nurse sharks and sting rays! The food on the island is very good, grilled fish and lobster was excellent. One of our favorites was the Italian restaurant Pasta Per Caso, stop in to make reservations there.

Fabulous Stay
It was a fabulous place to stay. I would highly recommend it and we'll definitely be back. Frances was very helpful and accommodating. He even provides bikes for you to use while on the island; which is the best way to get around unless you want to pay for the taxi golf carts or rent your own golf cart. The cottage itself was well maintained and perfect for a couple!

issue over a stained sheet
The place is great, service was exceptional, room was very comfortable. The only issue was over a stained sheet. If they would have just changed it without question there wouldn't have been an issue, but the owned went on and on about how the stain got there. He needs to remember that the customer is always right. The less said about that sheet would have been best.
