Una hermosa casa con piscina, tarifas de invierno más bajas.

Te invitamos a descubrir una verdadera isla paradisíaca. Casa Rana es una villa de lujo de diseño que durante los últimos 9 años ha atendido a más de 250 huéspedes inmensamente satisfechos. Es el lugar perfecto para tu aventura caribeña. Ubicado a 20 minutos al norte de San Pedro, en la exclusiva zona de Mexico Rocks, despertará en sus camas con almohadas para disfrutar de increíbles amaneceres. Sus elecciones cada día van desde no hacer absolutamente nada hasta divertidas experiencias en la isla o en el continente. La accesibilidad a todas las actividades y restaurantes es fácil.
Utilizando los principios del Feng Shui, nuestra intención era construir la casa más hermosa de la isla, un lugar que estuviera en armonía con la naturaleza, un lugar de espiritualidad y un lugar donde uno pudiera alimentar el alma. Nuestros invitados han confirmado que logramos nuestro objetivo; Casa Rana se ha convertido en uno de los principales destinos de casas de alquiler de lujo en Belice. Por favor, lea los comentarios de los invitados a continuación; Los comentarios lo dicen todo.
Excursiones de un día Incluye snorkel, visitar ruinas mayas, tubos de cuevas, tirolesa, observación de aves, tratamientos de spa, buceo, pesca (¡temporada de Wahoo ahora!), kayak y mucho más.
Durante los últimos años desde 2016, hemos estado ofreciendo comidas en el hogar servidas por nuestra cuidadora Bea. Yo personalmente la entrené, como lo he hecho con cientos de aspirantes a chefs. Bea es verdaderamente talentosa, y ella y yo hemos creado un menú de favoritos de Belice y el Caribe, junto con deliciosas especialidades asiáticas. Nuestros huéspedes nos dicen que tenemos la mejor comida de la isla. ¡No te pierdas su Key Lime Pie!


Los beneficios únicos de esta villa: nuestra casa incluye amplias habitaciones y exquisitos muebles, además de vistas despejadas del Caribe. Casa Rana es una obra de arte que vive y respira, baila con energía las veinticuatro horas del día. Por la noche, la iluminación única transforma el hogar en otra dimensión. Traiga a su familia y amigos y comparta con nosotros las vacaciones descalzas más memorables. Alojarse en una impresionante casa de lujo de 3.000 pies cuadrados con su propia playa privada, piscina profunda (10 'x 14') y muelle, es una experiencia extraordinaria que muy pocas personas tienen la oportunidad de hacer. Simplemente observando el agua, el cielo y el mar ocuparán horas de su tiempo. El poder de la naturaleza está aquí en toda su gloria.

Por qué el propietario eligió San Pedro: Belice es una tierra de muchas culturas diferentes que viven de una manera inusualmente armoniosa. El inglés es el idioma oficial y el país se rige por la ley inglesa. Es una tierra de asombrosa belleza, y una de las últimas partes del Caribe en ser completamente explorada. Nos cautivó la belleza del agua del Caribe, el cielo y la isla de Ambergris Caye. Este era un lugar donde sabíamos que queríamos estar. Nuestros variados antecedentes incluyen (entre otras profesiones) diseño y construcción, y queríamos construir una casa que fuera una 'obra de arte y espiritualidad', para compartir con todos los que decidieron visitar.

READ CANCELLATION POLICY
Hi - Unfortunately, we were never able to visit Casa Rana due to the threat of Hurricane Beryl. We had to cancel given we have a young family and were unwilling to take the risk. While we were absolutely wanting to re-book Casa Rana, under no circumstance will they ever refund you your money. In fact, the communication with the host showed zero understanding or empathy for the situation we were in and they simply kept pasting their cancellation policy in our communication as we pleaded to please rebook us so we could have our family vacation. EVERY OTHER vendor and hotel we had booked was willing to work with us given the situation. Things certainly happen in the world, but under no circumstance of "acts of god or war" will Casa Rana ever refund you your money. That should be a consideration as you choose where to stay in Belize given the unpredictable weather patterns these days.

Rustic Beach Vacation
Beautiful ocean view! The caretakers of the home, James and Bea, made the experience great. The bedrooms have mini split air conditioners that can be used limited hours. The house is otherwise cooled at the mercy of the ocean breeze. The hammock, lounges, and wooden chairs provide plenty of comfortable outdoor seating. The 8x8 mini pool in the deck is great for a quick dip to cool off. The wildlife was abundant and so cool to watch. The location is 7 miles north of town. There are wonderful neighbors close and lots of fishermen walking the beaches. It doesn’t feel isolated, except being a 30 min drive from town for resources. The ocean saltwater isn’t kind to the beautiful furnishings. The fans, sofa seams, kitchen knives, etc are rusted. It’s just part of being that close to the ocean without climate control. James is like a personal tour guide for all things local. He showed my boys little fishing tips (caught a hundred!), coconut harvesting, wild life knowledge, fish filleting, restaurant suggestions, etc.. It made the experience even better. James has great resources for excursions who pick up on the dock. The boat advertised in all the pictures is not available for transport anymore. I saw online that the boat and home are for sale. This house is the best place to relax in an authentic beach atmosphere, if you want something different from the typical resort destination.

Beautiful Home and Location - wonderful people
This was a very special trip and our first to Belize and staying at Casa Rana made the trip even more incredible. This stay was luxury. The house was beautiful and as described. Everything was in good shape outside the house as well such as furnishings, pool, and dock. The Host Diana communicated every well prior to arrival to make everything smooth and organized. She made arrangements for our airport taxi, golf cart rental, our first few meals at the house, and on site massages. It was a lot of coordination but she was really patient and helpful and put us at ease. The house staff were incredible. Really. Just genuinely good and nice people, but also such hard workers. We ate dinner prepared by Bea 3 nights in the house and each meal was delicious and loved by all. She was in and out of the house quickly for light housekeeping so we never had to work around her and she kept the house looking barely lived in. James made sure the pool and grounds were clean, helped with some post arrival arrangements, and taught us all how to fish off the dock. We all really fell in love with these two. Finally, the island. It was everything we’d hoped for. The people were friendly and welcoming, there was so much to do. Because of where Casa Rana sits and the different activities we had planned, we did have to cart into San Pedro quite a lot, but it really wasn’t bad. The serenity, natural beauty, people, and privacy of our location was well worth it.

A slice of heaven on earth!
Casa Rana was amazing. The house was beautiful and had everything that was needed. The grounds were lovely, and the dock and palapa were amazing. The owners were on site, but did not intrude in any way. The caretaker and his wife (also onsite) were friendly and amazing in every way! From cooking meals for us, to light housekeeping and laundry. They also helped with booking snorkeling trips and onsite massages! James even filled in as a fourth for the boys evening cornhole games! I could have stayed much longer (dang work and lack of adequate funding!). I guarantee you will not be disappointed with your stay here!

Amazing Experience
We stayed at Casa Rana for several days and had a wonderful stay. The house itself is very well taken care of. The grounds are spectacular, right on the water with your own dock to sit on and watch the fish swim right below you. The caretakers here are the real gem, James and Ms. Bea really made our experience. We were able to fish from the dock with James and enjoy wonderful dinners prepared by Ms. Bea. We rented golf carts, but didn't end up using them much, except for a couple trips to the store for provisions. Being able to pre-order groceries really helped us out with not having to go anywhere else. We would happily return for another relaxing vacation.

This is a stunning house right on the beach at Ambergris Caye, Belize. Well appointed and comfortable with lots of room. The housekeepers, James and Bea, were so helpful and personable and willing to make our stay memorable and fun. We were lucky to have perfect weather and no sargassum. What a vacation spot.

Great Spot
Our stay at Casa Rana was wonderful. It is perfectly kept home inside and out. Its a lovely set up and all the bedrooms are air conditioned. The owner and operator is very helpful in helping set up your trip and plan for events. And the staff is second to none! Having groceries delivered prior to our arrival was key. The road down to San Pedro and around this island is bumpy, so allow plenty of time and patience for getting around. Wonderful dock to hang out on and beautiful clean beach and pool on the property to enjoy. We liked using the two kayaks for going out on our own snorkel trips nearby. Highly recommend this property to you and your family.

I wish I could give 6 stars!!
The home owner, Richard, has created a tropical paradise where everything down to the smallest detail is just perfect. The photos for this home are beautiful but can't capture all the magic. I have been renting from VRBO for 15+ years and this was easily the best rental ever. From the time we arrived until we left, Richard and his staff of groundskeeper, James, and housekeeper, Bea, take care of everything from dinners to golf cart rentals to arranging excursions with the best companies who will pick you up at the end of their private pier. This place is special, look no further for the perfect private getaway.

Casa Rana is THE place to stay on Ambergris Caye!
It was hard to tell/understand before going to San Pedro, but this is definitely the place to stay on the island! It’s about a 20-minute golf cart ride from Secret Beach and only a little farther to the center of town. We did not understand how much we would appreciate being farther from town until we got to Casa Rana. The house had just about everything you need, a beach, a pool, a dock, amazing hosts, and access to bars and restaurants. Moreover, you can leave for snorkeling excursions directly from the dock! You do not have to worry about going all the way into town. The owner, Richard, even arranged for the golf cart we rented to be delivered directly to Casa Rana so that we didn’t need to arrange additional transportation to get to the rental shop.

THE Perfect Vacation
Our family of five stayed at Casa Rana for one week. The house was gorgeous and James & Bea were over the top helpful and informative. We did two excursions and James arranged for us to be picked up at our dock for both of them. Richard had a golf cart delivered to the home to be used for the duration of our stay. We loved carting around the island daily! It couldn’t have been better. And the meal Bea made for us was incredible. Can’t wait to go back!!!

Beautiful property with extraordinary staff
My husband and another couple (with their daughter) stayed at Casa Rana for a week in March 2023 and had a wonderful time. Ambergris Caye has a wide range of properties for rental and this house with accompanying waterfront property/pier was well suited for our needs. The house is spacious and well cared for. The property is located approximately 7 mi north of San Pedro in a quiet area and is perfect for families seeking a more secluded place with modern amenities. The dock/pier was one of the highlights, with abundant sea life literally a short walk away. There are small restaurants/bars nearby for a night out if desired. I must give a shout out to the marvelous staff, James and Bea, for their help with our vacation. James is the property manager, but has a canny ability to facilitate guest experiences and conveniences, as well as an insightful knowledge about the area, the people, the animals and the plants. Bea is an excellent cook and insightful hostess and made our stay comfortable and satisfying. They made hospitality look effortless. Thank you so much!

Casa Rana is a spectacular location and absolutely beautiful home with gorgeous views. Richard and Diana are wonderful, they own the home and are very gracious, kind hosts! James and Bea run the property and they are beyond fantastic. Bea cooked us dinner two nights, you absolutely must have her traditional Belizian dinner. We're still talking about it! James was awesome and he scheduled two great boat tours to snorkel. The snorkeling is amazing, the Mexico Rocks reef is a direct view from the home. The turquoise blue sea is beyond words. You can fish right off the deck under the palapa, so fun we had a great time! We rented a golf cart too and you can cruise around town ~ lots of great restaurants/bars. We carted to Secret Beach which was a super fun experience! Casa Rana is a beautiful home with very feng shui vibes. Richard was fantastic with responding to our questions and helping to prepare for the trip. We had a very relaxing week and would 100% recommend staying here! Thank you for letting us stay at your beautiful home!

Stayed here with our family of 6 for 6 nights in December 2022. The house is beautiful, well maintained, and very comfortable, we really enjoyed spending time on the dock. James the caretaker made our stay seamless for us, assisting with excursions, advice and fishing. Highly recommend having Bea cook for your first night at least, we really appreciated having dinner ready for us.

Christmas in Belize
My family stayed at Casa Rana for Christmas holiday. The home was beautiful and everything as pictured. Beautiful, quiet area with everything you need on site. Richard, the owner stopped by several times to make sure we had everything we needed and assisted with any questions. James was on site and helped my son and husband with all their fishing needs and went out of his way to make sure they had a great experience. He was so helpful with arranging any rides we needed…due to rain and winds we needed a taxi vs golf cart for dinner in town. He also set us up for diving and snorkeling excursions. Bea kept the home nice and clean and cooked us an amazing dinner! We couldn’t get enough of her ceviche!!! The home was about 35 minutes golf cart ride for us to town which isn’t bad but we had the bazaar weather front that hit us with high winds and rain so we didn’t explore the town other then dinners. Overall everyone involved with the home was incredible and welcoming. We were treated great and plan to return!!

Casa Rana is a delightful property. The team onsite made everything a breeze, from preparing wonderful, home-cooked meals, to cleaning and doing laundry, to making arrangements for snorkeling and fishing expeditions that pick you up from the property’s dock. Speaking of which, everyone should have a spot like the dock as their personal happy place. It’s amazing.

Amazing Casa Rana
Casa Rana is awesome. My family had the most amazing week in Belize and Bea, James, Richard and Casa Rana were a huge part of that success. House - The house itself is lovely. The main part of the house has no AC, but we spent the majority of our time outside so that didn’t matter at all. Bedrooms all had AC and cooled super quick when we went to sleep. Beds were so comfortable. The beach is lovely white sand. Unfortunately their beautiful beach has seaweed at the shore, but that is every house on this side of the island. However the dock is so wonderful. It is huge, has 5 comfortable chairs, and you can swim off the dock. I would rent Casa Rana again even knowing this. Richard was great giving me information on tours, provisioning, flights, etc. all the I do was very helpful. James was super helpful. 1st he arranged everything we needed at the house. He set us up with kayaks and he was instrumental in helping us book a 2nd trip to the mainland when our 1st trip was cancelled. He arranged a one on one trip with a tour guide so we could still see the Mayan Ruins at Lamanai. The house is 7 miles to town. With a golf cart, 4 miles of paved road, and 3 miles of unpaved road it is about a 45 min trip. Richard sends a cab to pick you up and drop off at the airport. It is a closer trip to Secret Beach from Casa Rana than town. And there are restaurants out towards the house. We went to Portofino and it was really good. We did not mind at all being 7 miles away from town. The main reason for this was that we had Bea cook dinner for us on 4 different nights. We went out 2 nights (one at Truck Stop and one at Portofino). The main reason that I booked Casa Rana was because of the reviews regarding Beas cooking. The reviews were 100% accurate. Her food was sooooo good. The coconut ceviche, the belizean chicken, all the rice…everything we ate. We had appetizers and dessert at every meal. It was sooooo good. If you wanted to be closer to town this might not be the house for you, but we loved being able to stay at the house, have dinner and then go have drinks on the beautiful dock. While we were in Belize we also became PADI Certified. We did all online classes prior to the trip and then did our pool training at the house and all the open water dives in the reef. We used White Sands Dove shop and I totally recommend them. It is super close and we were picked up from the dock. I also recommend their fishing and beach bbq trip.

Incredible House & Hosts
Casa Rana is everything as described and more. It is beautiful, immaculately maintained, and supported by a fantastic team. We loved our time on the property, relaxing and enjoying the ocean breeze. There is a second-story balcony with a wonderful swing where we found ourselves most nights. Each bedroom has an air conditioner that is strong and makes sleeping very comfortable. It is a perfect place if you want to settle in and unwind. Bea and James, the caretakers, were fantastic. Bea cooked for us for three nights, and each meal was delicious. James took care of organizing our activities and even made it possible for our adult children to fish off the dock behind the house. They caught a variety of fish that then James cleaned the fish, and we cooked them. It was one of the highlights of the trip. The owners and the caretakers live on the property and are accessible, but you wouldn't know they are there. It's a perfect situation. The house is pretty far from town, and the road is rough. I wouldn't plan on taking trips to town every day. Richard, the homeowner, generously reserves and has delivered a golf cart, if you want, to the property. My only recommendation is that you consider upgrading the golf cart rental. We had an incredible day of snorkeling at Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark Alley with Catamaran Belize. That was worth the trip to town. Final word - this house is about rest, relaxation, and restoration.

Beautiful Home
We had such a lovely time at Casa Rana! Richard was so helpful from the moment we booked the house, thoughtfully going over every detail of our needs and wishes for a wonderful family vacation. The house is magical, and as appealing as the pictures of the home may be they do no service to Diane’s attention to detail. Bea’s cooking is so phenomenal at a certain point we didn’t want to eat in the restaurants in town because her creations were far superior. James was helpful every single day, showing us how to fish off the dock and organizing an epic snorkeling adventure off the reef which you can see from the house. Richard and Diane are a stone’s throw away in a smaller home that Diane also designed. They are always ready, willing and able to help make the trip everything you hoped for. The only impediments we experienced had nothing to do with the house, or its lovely proprietors. We thought there would be a swimmable beach but because of the sea weed piling on the shore that wasn’t possible. You can however swim off the end of the dock where there’s an amazing array of sea life including snappers and the local barracuda. This home is magical! Enjoy!
