Silk Grass

"The Cabana was nice and clean, had all we needed to make the stay easy and happy. At first I thought it would be to far out of the way, but not at all. The location was actually perfect for visiting Bocawina Falls, and Hopkins. Also we were happy with the airco, and sat at the roof top enjoying the view of field and mountains. A very nice surprise at the edge of town, and enough resorts around the beach taking care of our dinners."

Sandpiper Beach Cabanas

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms were very clean, staff was very friendly beautiful beach and lovely kitchen. Really enjoyed our stay and will book again."

Umaya Resort & Adventures

10/10 Excellent

"The resort was beautiful and very well kept, both the grounds (including beach and pool area), and the rooms! Maid service everyday with fresh towels, trash disposal, made beds, filling up water jugs, sweep, mop… the works! We stayed in a two bedroom ocean view suite and it was perfect for our family of 4. The full kitchen was a great option for cooking a few dinners when we didn’t want to go out. The restaurant Casa De Maize was delicious, everything we tried was amazing! The staff is SO friendly and accommodating as well! You can tell that everyone who works there takes pride in their job and wants everyone to have a great experience! They can arrange shuttle rides into town, or to the store for a small fee, or there is a free daily shuttle that goes into Placencia as well. The swim up bar is a fun option for drinks, or you can make your own and bring them to the pool ( just bring a yeti cup). The pool is right on the beach and they work hard to keep it in good shape. There was seaweed while we were there, but they do their best to keep it to a minimum on the shore. The lagoon side is really beautiful as well (that is where the restaurant is) my son bought a fishing pole in town and enjoyed fishing off the dock there and the pier on the ocean side. There is also a little fire roasted pizza place by the pool to get food as well. You can charge things to your room which is nice. All in all we had an awesome time at the Umaya resort and would highly recommend staying here!!!!"

Sirenian Bay Resort - Villas & All Inclusive Bungalows

10/10 Excellent

"I have traveled all over the Caribbean and stayed at many beautiful resorts with exceptional service, but nothing compares to my experience at **Sirenian Bay Resort** in Belize. From the moment we arrived until the day we left, the staff was the most professional, courteous, and genuinely caring team I have ever encountered. They didn't just provide great service—they made us feel like family. Every interaction was warm, welcoming, and sincere. One staff member who truly stood out was **George**. His attention to detail, professionalism, and willingness to go above and beyond made our stay unforgettable. He was always attentive, accommodating, and seemed to anticipate our needs before we even had to ask. George is a tremendous asset to the resort. The resort itself was absolutely immaculate. Every area was spotless, beautifully maintained, and designed to create a peaceful, relaxing atmosphere. The vibe was exactly what we were looking for—quiet, welcoming, and the perfect place to unwind. And let's not forget the food! Every meal was delicious, beautifully prepared, and full of flavor. The drinks were equally impressive, expertly crafted, refreshing, and the perfect complement to each day in paradise. If you're looking for a resort that combines luxury, incredible hospitality, outstanding food, and a relaxing atmosphere, look no further than Sirenian Bay Resort. Thank you to George and the entire staff for making our stay so memorable. We will definitely be back!"
