The resort and staff are lovely, and the setting is beautiful, but it’s extremely remote—over an hour to town or Secret Beach, with no paved roads and relentless mosquitos. A few improvements would go a long way: provide insect repellent kits, improve mosquito control around the property, and offer more vegan food options. A regular shuttle schedule exclusively for guests (not shared with staff or supply runs) would greatly enhance the experience. TVs should be fully functional, and a gift shop or small grocery store would be helpful due to the isolation. More on-site activities and better access to golf carts or ATVs would also improve the stay. Despite these challenges, we made it an adventure—but it's best for travelers who enjoy rustic, remote settings

9/10 staff members were amazing. The resort really lacked food options. The food they did offer eas very underwhelming. Felt like all i could eat was bar food the whole trip. The location is so seculded it left you with limited options to do much at the resort itself. Deante, ken and celeste really made our stay worth it. Very amazing and generous and understanding people.

Very friendly staff and very helpful! Made you feel at home. Breakfast was amazing!! We did not eat dinner there we ate in town. The only thing with this location is that is about an hour and 10 mins away from everything. So if you want to be off the grid this is perfect. Otherwise you have to pay like 90 bucks for one way traffic to town.

Overpriced for what you get

Buffet for NYE was blah. The food was meager. The mains and desserts were lacking in both quality and quantity, the money we paid! The manager Sean was super awkward walking around saying hi to everyone but he didn’t know how to engage in a convo with us. The menu - half of the stuff was not available. Not worth the money spent at the resort.

This was one of the most beautiful resorts we saw on the whole island but you need to realize how remote it was. We rented golf carts and it took about 1 hr 20 min to get into town and it's a very bumpy road. It is faster by water taxi but they charge $37USD per person and for a family of 4 that is alot. To the south the next restaurant is about 10 minute drive and south it is about 45 minutes. That is also where the nearest store is. The food at the resort is good. We actually loved how secluded it was. It was safe and the kids could have more freedom. It was never crowded at the pool, beach chairs always available and good snorkeling right from the property.

This property was beautiful and the customer service was outstanding. Ferra (I think is how you spell her name & Deondre was amazing. When I arrived in Belize my phone was stolen at the ferry and I was using find my iPhone to track it. Deondre (the person who picks up guest from the ferry) came and immediately took me to the police station to get help with approaching the people who had stop my phone. Once that was over he took us to a place to have dinner and then to the resort. One thing that’s important to note is the transportation. Once arrived at Belieze airport we had to take a 15/20 min cab to the ferry doc this was about $30-35 next we took the ferry to the is (Ambergris Caye) this was about an hour or so but the view was absolutely beautiful so I didn’t mind the ferry at all. The cost was about $55 for a round trip or $24 one way. When the ferry arrived I was picked up by the resort and the ride was about 45-60 minutes by cab or 20/25 mins by boat (the resort has both options free) so I’ll be honest this resort was a little distance but it was worth it. I looked at MANY resorts and the weren’t nearly as beautiful. So if I had to do it again I would definitely pick the same resort. They have two beautiful pool areas, a spa, gym, right on the beach and a nice restaurant. Not to mention my beautiful two bedroom two bathroom condo style room. Plenty of space. I loved it, it was super clean but I spent most of my time it the pool. The resort & staff were amazing.
