    Anke was amazing and her place was clean and nice. It was great to hear the waves right outside the window at night. Stargazing in the back yard was incredible.

    Awesome place to stay! Wonderful host!
    This little apartment was great! Centrally located on the Caye and our host Anke was fastastic. The apartment was well equipted and brightly decorated. We were a little worried about have no A/C but the fans worked great and there was always a breeze so I hardly even noticed. I can't say enough about Anke and her sweet son Andreas, who woke up at 6:00 AM to tell us goodbye on our last day there. We would definitly book here again.

    The night's we spent on the cays felt like being in paradise
    The accommodation is a bit away from the crowded and sometimes loud island life in Utila. If you want to relax at the seafront, kajak to uninhabited islands, cook in your private kitchen (little pulperias exist so you can buy fruits and vegetables) oder eat in authentic little restaurants you are definitely right here. We wouldn't hesitate to visit again.

    Anke and her son were awesome ! Very helpful with setting it up so that it was easy to get there. Gave us a very comprehensive tour of the cay and how everything worked on the island. It was relatively easy and inexpensive to get to the town of Utilla from the cay. Anke was also Great to dive with!! We stayed at 3 different places in the Bay Islands on this trip and I can say this place was our favorite place.

    Staying in the heart of the Utila Cays
    My husband and I decided we wanted to experience what it’s like to be amongst locals of Utila. We picked the absolute PERFECT place for this! I cannot say enough positive things about our host Anke. From the beginning of booking, with all our questions, to the end of our week she made sure we were taken care of. The locals are friendly and accepting. Other than leaving for dives we mostly stayed on the Cay. Restaurant had delicious barracuda. We loved watching the sunset most nights from the dock at the restaurant. I thought maybe no A/C would be hard but we felt like we acclimated quickly to the heat. We loved lounging in the hammocks drinking coffee in the morning and sitting by the ocean in the evening looking at the stars. Definitely a return destination for us.

    Enjoyed our stay
    We found Anka to be a great host! She met us at the ferry at Utila. We spent 5 days snorkeling just outside our apartment door! The apartment offers everything you need to cook your own meals or there are a couple of restaurants. We enjoyed talking with the small grocery store owners and the pastries they make are delicious! The island is small and very quaint! Hope to return sometime!
