The 5 of us had a great experience in this really tiny island. David & Carmen & children are excellent hosts, providing all support and delicious food, even to sometimes difficult kids... :-) For the 5 of us, those have been magic days, with plenty of snorkelling, boat trips, kayaking, reading and relaxing. Thanks a lot to all of you!

My family and I loved staying on Tobacco Caye at Joe Jo's. The island is right on the reef, and the reef itself is teeming with creatures, so we saw many interesting things right from the dock: stingrays, octopus, squid, giant hermit crabs, colorful fish, pelicans diving into the water, etc. We also saw many rainbows and water spouts (little tornado out to sea) which was totally cool. Snorkeling around the end of the reef was a highlight with tons of coral and fish. We borrowed some of our snorkeling equipment from Joe Jo's and it was very good quality, and we used their kayaks and paddle boards every day - another huge highlight as they are readily available, free to use, and so much fun. David and Carmen took excellent care of us. The food was great with fresh vegetables…

We loved our stay for 5 days in January as a family of four. We stayed in two ocean front cabins and all spent many hours on our front porches reading and relaxing. The meals gave a rhythm to the day and food was very good. Our 8 year old loved ringing the dinner bell that calls everyone to the dining hall. Kayaks, SUPS and snorkeling gear were all in good shape and we used everyday. Have ‘Doggie’ take you out to the reef for amazing snorkeling-about a 10 minute boat ride. David and Carmen took excellent care of us during our stay. If you are not a fancy resort sort of person but just want a beautiful location with basic, clean accommodations with warm and friendly hosts, I highly recommend !!

Nature provides the perfect backdrop and Joe Jo’s does the rest! Extremely thoughtful and gracious hosts, wonderful food and comfortable accommodations made Joe Jo’s an utterly relaxing a fulfilling vacation. Snorkel gear was in great shape, nice kayaks and paddle boards also readily available, plus a volleyball court.
