We loved staying here and will do so again. The property was gorgeous and right on the water. We took the kayaks right on the water from the dock and enjoyed this so very much. We saw so many birds, an aligator, and astingray! We also spent a lot of time in the raised tree house area. We cooked on the grill, walked up the street to the area restaurants and bars, and visited Placencia. We also took a River Tour which we would HIGHLY recommend. It was awesome! Stay here. You will enjoy the experience!

Loved the house and our stay at the Tree Top aka Winter's Avalon in Maya Beach. The house photos are accurate and speaking with Herbert was easy via Whatsapp. The people of the area are absolutely fabulous and loved meeting all the new people. When paddleboarding or kayaking we had the water all to ourselves, which was very peaceful and relaxing. This is a great place to stay and have already recommended it to others.
Only one con: Neighbor's kids were visiting at the same time and were playing music with the bass turned up every night starting around 6pm until 10pm and I was unsuccessful in tuning out the pounding noise. However, my friend Brigett didn't have any problem tuning it out, I'm a bit more sensitive to noises.
Go enjoy and have a great time, you'll love your experience!

We booked Winter's Avalon for a month from mid-February to mid-March, and we absolutely loved staying here. We did several other mini-trips during our month to explore different parts of Belize and visit friends, but we were always excited to come "home." The beds are comfy, the kitchen had just what we needed to make meals, we had morning coffee and sunset cocktails on the third level lookout space daily, enjoyed time on the dock checking out the birds and a little spotted eagle ray that liked to cruise by. It's quiet and private, and Herbert was near by to help us with any issues, including lending us his electric air pump until we could get a leaky tire fixed on our rental car. Some really excellent restaurants are in easy walking or biking distance, and it was very convenient to meet up with our guides in Placencia for various adventures we booked. We were sad to leave, and hope our travels bring us back to Winter's Avalon some day.

Rustic. It would have been ideal if not for the above average temperature while there. Without a/c it was uncomfortable most of the day. My recommendations would be to update utensils.
