Amazing: Sunbreeze Hotel San Pedro

I went to SunBreeze Hotel last year, and I can tell that the service is excellent, the rooms are big enough, the food is just delicious, and it was my first time on Belize and being on that hotel and the quick access to the beach made me want to go back, and I will, sometime this year.

Tara del Sol: Condo delight

Rented one of the three bedroom condos in Tara del Sol with the family. The location was perfect. It was about 2.5 miles south of town in a very private and quite area but yet close enough to grocery stores and restaurants. The condo was very clean and the managers quite helpful. Good size pool and beach area. Would highly recommend the condos in this complex.

Lovely beach with private pier. Can walk beach into town.

Corona del Mar: Nice, but needs new bed!

My husband and I just returned from a 7 nights stay at Corona del Mar, we stayed in room 307 (3rd floor). The room was a regular size hotel room, spacious enough to move around freely without bumping into the bed or your luggage, very clean, snow-white linens and towels, nice white rattan furniture, clean and brand new mini-fridge and an electronic safe, ceiling fan, dead quiet AC and cable TV. My only complaint is that the bed was incredibly uncomfortable, a very old mattress, we could feel the coil pushing through. If they get a new bed in there, this room would be perfect! The best thing about this room is the view! We had a big balcony with big French doors. Just open the doors to the balcony and the Caribbean Sea comes right to your bed! We could see the barrier reef lying on bed! Unfortunately, I don't have any photos to show you because I got mugged in Ambergris and the mugger took my brand new digital camera!

The view!

Coral Bay Villas: Sea view

I would recommend a stay at these lovely condos. They are nothing fancy but they are clean and well kept. You can look out from your patio or balcony and look at the sea. The pier is very nearby so you don't have to walk far to get on a boat to go snorkeling.

Nice size condo with full size appliances in kitchen. Bedrooms have ample closet and dresser space with queen size bed. Friendly and helpful service. The living room couch makes into an extra bed. They will do your laundry for you and do a good job.

Las Terrazas: OMG - Condo living at its best

We didn't stay here, but our new friend Ann Marie works here on this property and on our last day wanted to give us the grand tour. The property is amazingly beautiful and is located right next door to Journey's End Resort (same owners).

Las Terrazas is a luxury condo resort which also rents the apartments.

There are various kinds of apartments from studio to 3 bedrooms with full kitchens, living room, dining room, large bathroom with jacuzzi tubs, large balcony many with extras like hot tubs or large sunning areas.

Amazingly beautiful beachfront property with all the amenities you have back home and would want at a luxury apartment stay.

Journey's End Resort: Good place to stay for our visit

Miriam and I choose Journey's End Resort for various reason, but mainly for the on-site spa. We were traveling to Belize for a short 5 days and we wanted to make the best of our time without having to leave the resort to enjoy the beach, restaurants or any of the amenities the resort had to offer.

Journey's End Resort is located on the northern end of Ambergris Caye. The distance from San Pedro Town is about 5-10 miles (not sure exactly), which made the resort an ideal location for some much needed relaxation. Belize doesn't boast many luxury resorts, especially with beach front property but Journey's End Resort had just enough of what we wanted. The Resort is quite nice with an on site restaurant, bar, convenience store, tour desk, pool, beach and some complimentary water sports.

The Resort has a few types of rooms but we chose to stay at one of the cabanas. The cabana was quite nice with two double beds, ceiling fan, decent size bathroom (with shower that always had plenty of hot water, lol) and a nice front porch with a chair.

The room also had air conditioning which we did not use and a small fridge.

Although Miriam and I were a bit surprised at our Cabana (more further down), we enjoyed the atmosphere that Journey's End Resort afforded us. The staff from the concierge to the front desk, waiters, taxi drivers were all so amazingly kind and friendly and very accommodating.

Regarding the Cabana itself, when we walked in we were a bit surprised that the decor was uninspiring and lacking any type of style. The bathroom was the same and although served its purpose, it lacked anything that would make it stand out, there was a huge concrete wall and tub like area for the shower which made no actual sense.

One thing I must say is that I read that many people complain about the lack of clear/clean space near some of the cabanas. Unfortunately, many of the properties along side the resort are under construction and there can and was some unsightly trash in the area. It does not belong to the resort.

All in all I would say that we enjoyed our stay but it I return to Ambergris Caye again, I would probably stay in a small B&B in San Pedro Town.

The Sunbreeze Hotel: Good Resort Hotel within San Pedro

The Sunbreeze Hotel was not my first choice as a place to stay while in San Pedro. The other two hotels I checked out were all booked up and the Sunbreeze was slightly above the rate that I wanted to pay. In hindsight I think that this was definitely the better choice as the other hotels really did not look all that good.
Pleasantly upon returning to Toronto, I received a letler thanking me for my stay at the Sunbreeze Hotel. That is a rare thing.

The Sunbreeze had everything that you would expect by a hotel at this standard. There was a very nice pool, a good bar and the restauant was probaby the best I hate in while in San Pedro. The room was clean but nothing special and the television did not work all that well.

Costa Maya Reef Resort: Nice Timeshare, though a bit remote

We spent a week here in a two-bedroom, second floor bungalow. Very nice. Due to its remote location you will spend a fair amount of time, and extra cash, to take the boat to town and tour sites. Doing the time share talk (much lower pressure than other places I have been) will get you $200 off on a tour package and a free lunch. The sell themselves as a diver's paradise, though a storm canceled my scheduled dive day. Food in the restaurant is good, though a bit pricey. Their beach is very small.

Free: fishing equipment, kayaks, bikes

Mexico Rocks, one of the top snorkeling spots on the Caye, is directly in front of the resort (5 min kayak ride out).

Changes in Latitude: Cozy B&B

Average room, private, cool enough with AC and a ceiling fan. Best part was the breakfasts. Nothing fancy, but the fruit was really fresh, and the breakfast was "traditional" made by the local girl who also cleaned the rooms. A very cozy start to the day.

The owner was helpful and very personable (in 2002, has new owners now, I've heard).

Stayed for 12 nights, and got a good discount, much lower than advertized on their website.
