Casa Fuerte - Island Home close to town

Casa Fuerte – Spanish-Style Charm, Rooftop Views & Beachside Living

Welcome to Casa Fuerte, a distinctive Spanish-style island home where character, comfort, and an unbeatable location come together. Nestled in the heart of San Telmo on Ambergris Caye, this charming retreat is just 10 steps from the beach and approximately a 10-minute golf cart ride from San Pedro Town. The luxurious Alaia Resort, with its inviting bars and restaurants, is just a one-minute walk away.

Whether you’re planning a family getaway or an island escape with friends, Casa Fuerte offers a private, comfortable home base close to the best of Belize’s Caribbean coast.

The Space

Built in 1982 and lovingly maintained, this approximately 1,375-square-foot home blends timeless Spanish-inspired architecture with beautiful local craftsmanship. Set on a 75-by-53-foot parcel, the home features two spacious bedrooms, each furnished with a king bed, one bathroom, and an open-plan kitchen and living area with a queen sleeper sofa are designed for gathering, relaxing, and enjoying time together.

Soaring 16-foot cathedral ceilings create a wonderful sense of space, while gorgeous Belizean hardwoods add warmth and character throughout the cabinetry and interior finishes. Air-conditioning in every room and double-glazed, screened windows help keep the home comfortable while letting you enjoy the tropical surroundings.

A Rooftop Experience Like No Other

One of Casa Fuerte’s most remarkable features is its private, 25-plus-foot-high observatory, complete with a viewing deck offering 360-degree panoramic views of the Belize Barrier Reef and the surrounding island.

Take in the scenery from above, capture incredible vacation photos, or simply enjoy a fresh perspective on the beauty of Ambergris Caye. It’s a truly memorable feature that sets this home apart.

Private, Secure & Convenient

The beautifully maintained garden features local trees and tropical plants, creating a peaceful outdoor setting. A newly built concrete perimeter fence and double gate provide added privacy and convenient access for your golf cart.

You’ll also be close to everyday essentials and local favorites, including a grocery store, pharmacy, mechanic, hardware store, nearby restaurants, and The Baker, a popular stop for visitors and residents alike.

From quiet mornings at home to beach days, resort dining, and evenings exploring San Pedro, Casa Fuerte puts island living within easy reach.



Want to arrive with everything already taken care of? Ask us about our grocery provisioning service, and we can help stock the home before your arrival. It's a wonderful way to settle in, enjoy a meal on your veranda, and begin your vacation without an immediate trip to town.

Experience the Best of Ambergris Caye

Spend your days exploring the island, enjoying the turquoise Caribbean waters, discovering local beach bars, or simply relaxing at home with the sea just outside your door.

Ambergris Caye offers a wealth of experiences, from snorkeling and scuba diving along the Belize Barrier Reef to fishing excursions, sailing trips, paddleboarding, and exploring the island by golf cart. Whether you're seeking adventure or a slower pace, there's plenty to discover during your stay. Our concierge can arrange all of the above, plus island travel, private chef, or in-home massages.

We specialize in vacation homes on Ambergris Caye, offering the space, privacy, and convenience of a fully furnished home rather than a traditional hotel room. Essential supplies, including mini bar soap, dish soap, hand soap, paper towels, and toilet paper, are provided to help you settle in comfortably.

Belize is a tropical destination, and changing weather, trade winds, and the rhythms of island life are all part of the experience. We appreciate your understanding and flexibility.

Come experience Casa Fuerte—a character-filled island home with beautiful craftsmanship, extraordinary rooftop views, and the beach just steps away.

Great spot

We enjoyed our stay. Perfectly located just a bit south of town and just steps from the beach. So many restaurants close by as well as grocery stores and of course The Baker!
