We had a good stay at Captain Morgan's Retreat. We stayed in a cabana room with a porch looking out on the water. Beautiful view. Super clean. Super nice staff, always with a smile. Cute little store on the property to pick up a few needs. It's north of town, so it's very quiet there. The food at the restaurant was good too.

I arrived at 7:30 PM and the front desk was closed, but the driver was excellent took great care of me made sure I got in the room OK and even convinced the people next-door at oceans to stay open long enough for me to get some takeout food. The Casita is perfect and the beach is wonderful I would strongly suggest Orbitz let customers know that the Front Desk here closes at 7 PM.

We had the most charming Villa. We were celebrating our 40th Anniversary. The staff made it so special. We returned to the villa with a surprise set up of towels swans, flower peddles and Champaign. We chose Captain Morgans because we were looking for a place to just enjoy the ocean view and relax. It did NOT disappoint. The resort offered everything you would need if you chose to spend your entire time there. We are looking forward to returning.

The staff at this place make it so enjoyable. Service was great and the restaurant and chef were the best. We stayed in the original palapa’s / casitas and they have been redone nicely with local paintings, a nice couch and refrigerator.

We had a great stay. The staff was incredibly accommodating. Even waited for us the night we arrived to not close the kitchen and have dinner since during the week there are minimal dining options after 8pm. Overall, great experience. Food and Spa was great too.

We stayed in a 2 bedroom. Everything was very clean. Staff was helpful and friendly at checkin and throughout our stay. There is a small convenience store on site with snacks. This was a nice location, as it is in between town and secret beach.

Location is in the middle between san pedro and secret beach, but there is not good places to eat around, and the food at the hotel restaurant and service is not good. The beachfront cabaña is good.

We went during the down season- which in some regards was the absolute best bc we felt like we had the whole resort to ourselves! It was so quiet! We had the pool to ourselves, beach to ourselves. Amazing.

There’s no hot tub there, which is why I booked it. But great atmosphere and close to the night life. Rooms will make you feel like you are on a ship (dark). Beautiful beach and the cabana porch is awesome! Staff are incredible.

No acess to beach, wait staff were very friendly, however the delivery of food was extremely slow even when no one was there but you. We felt that the staff did their jobs very well.we stayed 10 days and enjoyed our stay and our villa looked just like the pictures.

The rooms are nicer than the website photos. Had a good view of the pool and ocean. The staff was friendly and helpful. The property is currently being renovated so there was some noise but not to bad. We were charged a resort fee for booking thru Expedia. Housekeeping was lacking! They want you to place used toilet paper in a covered trash can because of the septic tank. No problem doing this except the trash can was rarely emptied. One time the sheets were changed and a double bed sheet was placed on the king bed. Fortunately we find another king size sheet and remade the bed. We requested some clean bath towels and when we came back to the room there were only 6 hand towels. It got better as the week wore on I would go back

All the staff from the reception area to the restaurant were very friendly. The main pool had construction going on but was beautiful to have breakfast at the pool. The other pool, which belongs to the adjacent resort on property was absolutely breathtaking. You could walk into the pool just as if you were from the shoreline to the ocean, which I loved. No steps to get in and out of the pool. My beach front cabana room was very comfortable and had all the necessities required, including a nice front patio

We loved our cabana! It was right on the ocean, authentic, clean, and had lots of room for the two of us. We loved the location, it close but not too close to the heart of the city so we had lots of things to do that were close but did not have to deal with the busy downtown. The only things we did not love were the beds (we found it hard) and the cost of the drinks and food at the resort. It was more expensive so we left all the time to eat and drink. One thing to be aware of in general is that no restaurants or coffee shops open unitl 8am so if you are an early riser ensure you have snacks and coffee in your room!

We had a beautiful view of the sea from our porch. The 1 bedroom suite was very spacious and comfortable. The beach was clean but we didn't realize it would have a sea wall and you could not enter the water easily plus it was rough water. There was construction next to the Captain Morgan pool and restaurant which made it a bit dirty and ugly. However, the breakfast deal was a great option at $65 per person for the entire week. The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating.

Great location. Work in progress.

The location is awesome. About 15-20 minutes away from the golf cart grid lock of San Pedro. About 5 minutes from the Truck Stop, and 20 minutes from Secret Beach. We should have gotten a cart for the duration of our stay. The property is in the midst of renovation. The staff is awesome. On the other hand, this is the first hotel in Belize where you have to buy, yes buy, your water. The room did not have a microwave. But Greg, who runs the restaurant will gladly reheat food for you.

Quiet But Basic Accomodations

The location is probably 4 miles from the town of San Pedro. The cabanas was nice and our location was right on the beach. You must rent a golf cart for your entire stay - to get to restaurants groceries, etc. They was a restaurant on site but the the service is miserably slow and attention to detail is nonexistent. If you like quiet accommodations and far from San Pedro this is your place. Not sure if the swimming pool is fit to swim but during our 5-day stay we only saw one guy swimming there. The room was clean but I would classify it as basic accommodations.

The resort is well developed. The interior is a bit antiquated but clean and functional. The resort has organized everything needed to travelers, ie.. golf cart rental (on property) WiFi passwords, on site restaurant and bar ( great food) , swimming pool and a/c unit that works great, transportation to and from the airport (additional fees) and an on site convenience store. A major plus that we didn’t realize until the end of our trip was that the resort operated on a super quiet generator. The island during our trip encountered multiple days and hours without electricity. At the resort we never were inconvenienced due to the loss of power in the area. We respectfully turned off our lights and a/c when we went out exploring the island and can’t imagine trying to sleep without a/c. The staff is friendly and treated us like royalty. This was our first stay at the resort and would stay there again without hesitation.

Unusable Beach and Overpriced Dinner

Overall, we really liked the two story cabana which was great for a family of four to have some room to spread out. The view from the balcony was excellent and the staff were extremely friendly (which you'll find all over Belize). The reason we gave this a lower rating was because when we checked in, the receptionist said, "We recommend that you not swim on our beach because the Sargassum grass in the water may cause health issues." That would have been very good information to know before we booked this place!!! We ended up having to rent a golf cart to drive several miles over to secret beach for the 'only' place without Sargassum. Secondly, the first night we had their fish special at the hotel restaurant and it didn't have a price on it. The fish was excellent but we were still hungry after, then the bill came for $150 USD (which only had two beers). Between the unusable beach and the overpriced dinner, it put us in a bad frame of mind on this Caye being a tourist trap. I'll re-iterate that the staff was awesome and the grounds are beautiful.
