Stayed down the beach from here as happened to walk by. The seaside half of the hotel has been completely abandoned and is like a scene from 28 Days Later, with furniture, dishes, and everything just left out. Pool is full of algae and beach is strewn with trash. Upon close inspection, the paint is peeling of the buildings and... More

I paid a $270 deposit, and two days before my scheduled stay I called to confirm that they should be expecting me. No answer on the phone. No answer to e-mail. Finally I did get a response from somebody stating that they had gone into receivership. They provided no notice to me that my reservation was cancelled and I did... More

Dear Sir, Before the hotel was closed for essential maintenance work and general improvements, we did our utmost to contact everyone. We offered guests to be relocated, or to delay their stay, or to apply for a refund. As far as we are aware, every guest or agent was settled in full. If the reviewer would like to contact us...

I paid a deposit and had a reservation for 7 nights. One week before my trip I called to check that everything was in order, but nobody answers the phone. Somebody at a tourist office in Placencia informed me that they are closed. It would have been nice if they had bothered to inform me or to send back my... More

I will give them the benefit of the doubt since we were there during the lowest of the low season, I think there were a half dozen guests there. So, I suppose it would be more economical to have a limited food menu and drink selection. Prepare to schedule your day around the local bus schedule or pay $40 round-trip... More

The staff were very cheerful, helpful and friendly which made up for their seeming "newness" to the hospitality industry. The hotel is split in two by the road from Placencia, which some day will be paved, in the meantime it is one of the roughest "main" roads I've ever been on. Currently only the ocean side buildings are used for... More

Having returned to Belize in Placencia, The resort has evolved so much since its opening. The resort is stunning, rising sun over the ocean and the sunset over the lagoon and maya mountains are a delight. The service is excellent and staff ever so friendly and efficient. The food really reflect the region. The appartment suites, are very spacious and... More

We booked here last minute because Mexico H1N1 warnings . ALL INCLUSIVE WAS NOT A GOOD DEAL. Food was ok, but not great and varied in availability. ("Sorry no ceviche." "Oh we ran out of coconut milk, so no pina colada's today") Staff were adorable local kids, but not very well trained or efficient. If you're on island time, it's... More

The breakfast menu could be improved: wheat bread, continental fare for those who do not want scrambled eggs and pork sausage. Cereal and fresh juice. Bed size and comfort of the mattress could be improved. There was nothing to was dishes with in the rooms. More

I'm just back from a 6-day stay at Bellamaya and had an amazing time. I'll start with the very few negatives: it is a big of a haul to the village, but there are ways to get there and they have pretty much everything you'd need there. And the water at the beach is cloudy with sand (because it is... More

We stayed at Bellamaya for 7 nights. The resort was very nice. We were very pleasantly surprised by our 2 bedroom, 2 bath condo. About 30 steps from the ocean, pool and spa right off of our patio - absolutely stunning property. Negatives: 15 minute taxi ride from town ($20 US each way total); large spa outside was not working;... More
