Hopkins Bay Belize a Muy'Ono Resort

Our family of grandparents, our daughter and husband and our two granddaughters ages 5 and 7 had the best time ever at Hopkins Bay Resort. Our 2 bedroom ,2 bathroom villa was roomy and comfortable for everybody. The beautiful beach and pool lay right in front of us. We loved the kayaks and paddle boards.The water was calm and perfect for our young children who soon knew their way around. We could have prepared meals at the full kitchen but instead enjoyed the excellent great food at both onsite restaurants. Best of all was the quiet, peaceful atmosphere and friendly and helpful staff from the front desk to the servers to the grounds keepers. Did I mention how clean and immaculate the pool and grounds were? So much more to praise about this special place, like the free bikes to go into town and more. Would definitely go back.

From the moment we pulled through the gates through the rest of our stay, we experienced the best service possible. The staff went above and beyond to ensure our visit was as smooth and enjoyable. Everyone made it a point to remember our names and always greeted us with a smile and asked if we need anything. Chavis, who works in the restaurant, especially went above and beyond to ensure we had a hot meal ready after the kitchen was closed when we got back from our excursions. Most of the guests we talked with were on their third or fourth visit to the resort - clearly showing that it is worthy to make a regular vacation spot. I fully plan on returning to Belize and staying here again.

Resort was GREAT! Low key and relaxing. The Rhum Shack was fantastic with great food and even better service. We made fast friends with Michelle and Wilbur who made sure we never left hungry or thirsty. The food was so good we didn’t need to venture out of the resort too much. Hopkins is safe and the folks are very friendly. Definitely plan on a return trip.

Location - On the coast two hours from Belize city. Small hotel with approx 20 rooms/apartments it looked like 1 bed rooms upstairs and bigger apartments below. Room - Our room was upstairs with a large king size bed with plenty of room. Light & airy with beach glimpse views via landscaped gardens. There was a coffee making machine & plenty of storage/luggage storage. En-suite shower room with 2 sinks, the shower pressure was a little low. Food - The food was of excellent quality especially the evenings which was really well presented. Lots of choices & a specials board at both lunch and evening meal. Food took time however with an hour wait frequently in the evenings. Care with sandflies, staff will light a coil on request but are not proactive with it. Facilities - On a long attractive tree lined beach. Free paddle boarding and kayaking (2 person kayak only) on the beachfront and good walks in both directions one way down to Hopkins village. Sea close to river so not clear waters. Free cycles to village. Free entertainment on a Friday & Saturday including great local drumming. Service - The service was really good - staff were welcoming during the day & eve from the beach, gardeners, bar & restaurant staff. Special thanks to King, Chavis, Adalma, Michelle, Shaquille and Joseph. However on arrival at reception desk we felt we were ‘processed’ rather than be given the Belizean welcome & our room was delayed in being ready. Overall we were really happy with our choice here we stayed here for six nights and would certainly if returning to Belize come here again.

From the moment Velene welcomed us until we sadly had to leave after 2 weeks; this resort is phenomenal. Everyone treated us like family. No matter which villa you are in it’s a great view of the water. Housekeeping kept the rooms spotless every day. The restaurant has a great selection of food and drinks for any meal; the entire wait staff are so attentive, Shaq and Wilbur are great behind the bar and make the best coconut mojito. Kira and Janelle give the best facials and massages as you listen to the small waves come to shore. Lastly, Teo keeps the entire resort running like a well oiled machine and always a smile on his face. I cannot say anything but good about this resort. If peace and quiet with plenty of day excursions is what you’re looking for, this is the place for you.

My husband and I spend a long 6 nights at Hopkins Bay Resort. We didn’t eat much at the restaurant on property, just the occasional drink or snack by the pool. The staff were very friendly and helpful and the property itself was well maintained and comfortable. I would return and recommend to friends in a heartbeat. Only complaint is I wish the showers had better water pressure!

We were blessed to go to Belize and stay at Hopkins Bay for 5 nights. Everything was wonderful. We rented a golf cart from a local company and were able to explore the town easily. All of the staff at HB was accommodating and took care of our every need.

As usual, our stay at Hopkins Bay Resort was nothing short of amazing! We have stayed there several times, with friends and family, and would highly recommend to ALL!! The staff are genuine, the food is delicious, and the resort/beach is very clean!! Thank you for another great vacation to paradise!!

Very relaxing . Resort was incredible. Food delicious.
