Beautiful Oceanfront Beach House with Private Pool, Unbeatable Views

DREAMING OF YOUR NEXT ESCAPE…….... ENJOY A BEACHFRONT HOME WITH PRIVATE POOL AND BEACH…………..

Sunrise to sunset, Esmeralda Del Mar (EDM) features breathtaking scenic views of the crystal clear emerald and turquoise waters of the Caribbean. Completed in May of 2017, EDM is a Tropical Modern design family home located on the beach, five miles North of San Pedro Town on Ambergris Caye and a ¼ mile from the largest barrier reef in this hemisphere. The home was custom designed and built to be a memorable place for family and friends to relax, have fun, catch up and share life's special moments.
The Main House features two floors and three spacious outdoor living and deck areas (there is even a rooftop deck!). The top floor welcomes guests with an open floor plan, vaulted ceilings, a master bedroom with an attached luxurious bathroom, a half bath, a fully equipped kitchen, a spacious living room, dining room and an executive office*(see note below), all with an ocean front view! This home was designed with outdoor living in mind, so the top floor includes 800 square feet of deck for your enjoyment and access to the rooftop deck. The Rooftop Deck offers a stunning 360 view of the Caribbean and the surrounding Island (A perfect place to gather at sunset or sunrise!) The first floor features an open floor plan and two bedrooms, a fully equipped kitchen, spacious living room and dining area, all ocean front views. In addition to the indoor living space, there is 700 square feet of deck space, a private pool, deck, and walk-out beach access.

The details of Esmeralda Del Mar are unparalleled. Each bedroom suite door is hand carved by local artisans, and each king bed is handmade with Belizean mahogany, accompanied by memory foam mattresses and luxury bedding. The large bathrooms feature hand painted double sinks and large walk-in closets offer ample storage. The kitchens are generously appointed with stainless steel appliances and high-end, plentiful kitchenware for groups who enjoy the option of cooking or cooking together. The living rooms feature entertainment centers. The top floor includes a 65” Samsung Smart Ultra HD Flat Screen TVs with a Sonos Sound Bar and the first floor features a 60” Samsung Smart Ultra HD Flat Screen TV with a Bose Sound Bar.

A separate private Casita, within steps of the Main House, is included. The Casita features a bathroom, queen sized bed, kitchenette, living room, Smart HD TV and covered porch. This beautiful addition to EDM is nestled amongst the palm trees, with an ocean view for your enjoyment.
Both the Main House and Casita are air conditioned and have ceiling fans throughout. Property is served by a central purified water system (so you can drink the water!). Guests also have access to a washer and dryer for convenience.

For your enjoyment we have three kayaks, two bikes, two stand-up-paddle boards, on site for guest use.

EDM offers complimentary pick up service at San Pedro Airport upon arrival.
There are over a half dozen restaurants/bars within a 20 minute walk along the beach from the home and at least a dozen more within a 20 minute golf cart ride along with several larger boutique Belizean resorts which also have restaurants and bars. Several grocery stores (Belizean size) are in the area with two that deliver. If you wish to eat in but not cook, our caretaker’s wife will prepare excellent Belizean meals upon request.

Our beach is soft white sand with a gentle slope into the ocean. The ocean bottom in front of Esmeralda Del Mar is all natural and is generally soft sand, turtle grass or similar marine vegetation. We recommend beach shoes be worn because it is a living sea bottom with vegetation, sea life and some shells. Depth can range from under a foot at the shoreline to six to ten feet at the reef depending on the tide and other conditions. The slope is gradual.


If you go in the ocean, please note it is the swimmer’s responsibility to be aware of boat traffic at all times and especially around docks and between the end of docks and the reef. Both recreational and light commercial traffic does occur between the shore and the reef from time to time all along Ambergris Caye. Swimming after dusk is not recommended.

Note: If you book through a travel site, please check with them regarding their refund policies for any fees or commissions they charge. We cannot be responsible for a refund of their charges.

If you have any questions or concerns regarding your prospective stay at Esmeralda Del Mar, please do not hesitate to contact our property manager.

* The upstairs private executive office features a desk (yes, with a view of the ocean), office chair, multifunction printer, basic office supplies, multiple electric outlets, a surge protector, high speed internet and both an in room ceiling fan and separate air conditioner. It also contains a day bed which can be used to spread out materials…..and leave them there when you are done without concern for privacy.


Also, please note that Esmeralda Del Mar maintains the highest standards regarding hygiene, cleanliness and safety. Our housekeeper is professionally trained, is on-site and dedicated to cleaning only Esmeralda Del Mar, not other properties. Accordingly, Esmeralda Del Mar is thoroughly cleaned after each and every stay and we include a mid-week cleaning for all of our guests as well.

Minimum number of nights during holiday periods is 7 nights, we will try to accommodate for less if possible.

Fantastic Home

This is the most amazing home! Having Benjamin and Addie on the property meant so much to have them around if needed! Addie prepared two lovely meals for us and Ben made sure everything was perfect during our stay. The views are impeccable and you can fish out on the pier and watch stingrays and sharks go by. Very exciting! This vacation was a dream and perfect in every way!

Amazing villa in Belize

We cannot say enough about this property! Caretakers on site are professional, kind and the house is absolutely immaculate! Adi’s dinners are delicious! Location easy to get around and our snorkeling/dive White Sands dream picked us up at the dock out front. Highly recommend this villa.We will definitely be back.

Amazing house and property!

All in my party agreed that this house has to be one of the nicest on Ambergris Caye! We had 3 couples staying to celebrate the 50th birthday for three of us. As recommended by the property manager, we reserved a boating excursion with Clinton and his sons for 2 full days of snorkeling and fishing which was the highlight of our trip! Benjamin and Adi cooked for us two days, and it was absolutely delicious. They were also awesome caretakers, helping when we needed, and giving us space the rest of the time.The rooms were comfortable and little pool in the back was where we spent a lot of our time. The property is pretty private with a spectacular view! We had heard that Secret Beach was a must-see, but after going there one day to just check it out, we were pretty disappointed by it. The house and property were so much more enjoyable of a place to relax and take in the view. Another highlight was watching the sunrise from the rooftop with a cup of coffee in hand while wrapped in a blanket. I promise, you will love this piece of paradise.

Amazing 50th Birthday!

This house is stunning. We had an amazing time and would hands down book this home again. The caretaker, Ben, and his wife were excellent hosts. They both did an amazing job cooking the fish, lobster and crab that the gentlemen in our party caught earlier that day. We definitely hated to leave!

Perfect Ambergris Caye getaway

I cannot say enough great things about EDM! The house is absolutely gorgeous and Benjamin and Adi (onsite caretakers) were wonderful. The house has a whole home generator, which was huge because the power went out daily. Other houses around us were without power while we had full power. The house is about a 25 minute golf cart ride from San Pedro which was far enough away from the hustle and bustle. If you are considering a trip to Ambergris, I highly recommend this house! We can’t wait to return.

Family on the beach

The house was one of the highlights of our trip. Beautiful house, new and well appointed. 3 master suits in the house and 1 in the casita. Plenty of room for 5 adults but could easily host twice that. Always nice to come back to after a busy day of scuba diving or fishing. Plus scuba and fishing companies pick you up from your dock, very convenient. On site property manger, Benjamin & his wife Adi were amazing. Adi’s Home cooked Belizian dinners were great! Only suggestion would be to have some beach games available on property. We loved our family getaway to Belize!

What everyone else said......Outstanding!

We spent a lot of time kicking the tires on VRBO reviews of nice beachfront properties to stay in Belize. After reading so many stellar reviews about Esmeralda Del Mar, we decided to book it for eight nights. All I can say, is that our party of six had an absolutely wonderful stay there. Everything we read about it in the very positive VRBO reviews was accurate. A special note goes out to Ben, the caretaker and Addi his wife. They were exceptionally welcoming and helpful and Addi's dinners were absolutely delicious. I would recommend having her prepare dinner for at least a couple of nights while you're there. The property managers recommended Clinton from Ali Mermaid Adventures for activities, such as snorkeling, fishing, and a trip to the mainland for caving and zip lining. We went on several excursions on Clinton's boat, and he and his sons were extremely professional and went out of their way to ensure we all had a great time. They got us fresh lobster and conch and prepared us a wonderful lunch including fresh Conch-Lobster Ceviche and grilled seafood.I would highly recommend using Clinton for any activities he offers. Our entire vacation was very enjoyable and memorable and we would all highly recommend staying at this beautiful home.
