The surrounding sun deck and outdoor lounge areas offer space to relax between swims. Landscaping adds greenery around the home and creates a welcoming setting for time outdoors.
Off-grid island living
Slack Tide runs on solar power, making mindful electricity use part of the experience. Please switch off lights and unused appliances when heading out and conserve water throughout your stay. These simple habits help support a comfortable visit while respecting the home’s resources.
Location and parking
Secret Beach is nearby for swimming, beach bars, and dining. A golf cart is recommended for exploring the area and travelling farther around Ambergris Caye, with parking available directly on the property.
GUEST ACCESS
Enjoy private use of the home, pool, decks, and outdoor lounge areas. Golf cart parking is available on the property. The solar equipment room beneath the house is reserved for maintenance; please contact management if assistance is needed.
GUEST INTERACTION
Our Isla Bonita Property Management team is available through VRBO or WhatsApp for questions, maintenance assistance, and help arranging your stay. We’ll coordinate your arrival and provide check-in instructions beforehand.
We can also assist with golf cart rentals, transportation, grocery provisioning, excursions, private chef services, and massages at an additional cost. Advance arrangements are recommended.
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE
Off-grid living: Slack Tide generates its electricity through solar power. Being off-grid means electricity is generated on-site rather than supplied by the municipal grid. Thoughtful consumption helps the system support everyone’s comfort, especially during extended cloudy or rainy weather.
Energy conservation: Please switch off lights and unused appliances when heading out. If using air conditioning, keep doors and windows closed and turn it off when leaving the home.
Water conservation: Please avoid leaving taps running, keep showers reasonably short, and report leaks or running toilets promptly.
Getting around: A golf cart is recommended for exploring the area and travelling into San Pedro town. We suggest picking up groceries and essentials before heading to the property.
Weather and roads: Roads around Secret Beach can become muddy, uneven, or flooded after heavy rain. Drive carefully and allow extra travel time.
Pool use: Children should be supervised by an adult whenever using the pool or spending time around it.
