Hotels Near Turneffe Reef in Caye Caulker

Great location on the strip able to walk majority of places

We visit Caye Caulker every year in February and multiple years We have stayed at La Isla. The staff there is wonderful and is a big part of the reason why we return each year. The location is one of the best on the island. You will find yourself centrally located within walking distance of dozens of restaurants and not far from the water taxi. The hotel has a lovely courtyard with a nice pool and pool deck and every evening in the courtyard they host the bonfire. Just across the small street is the private beach and dock. There are kayaks and paddle boards available as well as thick cushions to put on the lounge chairs at the beach has an added bonus. The staff will carry all those things to the beach for you. The pricing on the rooms is very fair, and the resort has a variety of room options. They have about 50% of the rooms that as an American I would consider a typical Belizean hotel room the rooms are simple and very functional, not fancy. The other 50% of the rooms are more upscale for a Belize experience, many of these rooms are suites, or have a kitchenette. The pictures that they offer on their website are very good guidelines as to what you would expect in your room when you arrive. Enjoy your time in Caye Caulker!

The hotel has an excellent location, with comfortable beds and clean rooms. The balcony was a nice touch, and the rooftop space had potential, but it wasn't being utilized—there was no bartender available to order a cocktail. When we requested an iron, we were told there was only one in the hotel and that we would need to borrow it from another guest, which felt unusual. Breakfast is not offered on-site, but the hotel directs guests to two nearby restaurants within walking distance. Namaste was my favorite, with healthy options and delicious smoothies. Unfortunately, the customer service at the hotel was disappointing. The front desk staff, consisting of a younger and an older woman, were unwelcoming. They didn't greet guests as they approached and often appeared to be frowning. On my second day, when I asked the younger woman a question, she avoided eye contact, keeping her attention on her phone, which made me feel ignored. Improving the front desk's customer service with some basic training in soft skills would greatly enhance the overall guest experience. Simple gestures like eye contact, a smile, and a warm greeting could make a big difference.
