Great stay

Stay was for 9 nights. Great staff and helpful. Easy to get around and find different places from here. Will stay again
Randy, 10-night trip

I would stay here again

This was my first time staying at this hostel; although, I have visited their open-air restaurant and bar many times over the years. I stayed in a private room, with an ocean front balcony on the 3rd floor. It was very clean with basic amenities. The bathroom had a nice walk-in shower. The rooftop pool and bar area is great, but the bar is not open everyday. My only complaint would be the all night noise from a club nextdoor.

Allen was the property manager that addressed all of our concerns and insured that our entire stay was fun and well coordinated, he was very knowledgeable, friendly and helpful.

Stay here!

Vey friendly staff. Great that their own restaurant is top tier. We ate breakfast there every day, and also dinner there other days. They also have a washing machine, a super good pool and kitchen if you feel like cooking. They also have a great deal with golfcarts and discount at one of the diving tour shops. Loved our stay here. Rented a private room with 2 beds, as a couple. Worth it!

We were greeted with a nice and thorough explanation and tour of the property at check in. The bed in the room was very comfy and the view of the ocean from the room was spectacular. The pool was a nice hang out spot and we even had access to the pool and facilities of the hostel/hotel behind it. Would stay again!

This was our second time staying here and we were not disappointed. The people are amazing that work there and even their tour company that they use is amazing! Belize celebrity tours! If you are looking to spend all your time outside your room this place is perfect! All you need all in one! We will definitely be staying again on our next trip!
