Hopkins Bay Resort gives me the sense of peace and tranquility that I am looking for in a vacation. From its ideal location on the beach to the friendly staff, they offer quality service and accommodation. We celebrated my best friend’s bachelorette there. We had so much fun in our private 3 bedroom villa. It had all the amenities we needed. The breakfast was amazing and fresh! (Get the stuffed Jack) We also enjoyed tropical drinks at the Rhum Shack. I’m already looking forward to my next get away there.

The term “Resort” is a stretch, but if you manage your expectations, you’ll enjoy your stay. The villas lack modern features such as TVs in the bedrooms, in unit washers and dryers and window and door screens to keep the mosquitoes out. The beachfront was not usable due to the volume of seaweed that smelled really bad after baking in the sun for hours. Don’t book any tours or excursions through the resort. We got totally ripped off on a chocolate factory tour that we paid $120 USD for a one hour “tour” that yielded only sunburn and mosquito bites. We weren’t even offered a free chocolate bar for our troubles. I got an upset stomach after eating at Embers one night and had to pay $1 USD for a single Alka Seltzer tablet at the front desk. I went to a local supermarket the next morning and paid $1 BZE for 2 Alka Seltzer tablets which gave me that “you got ripped off by the resort AGAIN” feeling. All in all, I feel like I overpaid for what turned out to be a substandard vacation. I may travel back to Belize in the future, but I definitely will not be staying at Hopkins Bay.

Hopkins Bay Resort does an outstanding job of hospitality. The staff are phenomenal. Velene in the Office is amazingly helpful. All of the waitresses were wonderful, Veronica was just as delightful and kindhearted every morning. The Belizean Breakfast is my favorite. Wilbur, at the Rum Shack restaurant remembered me from last summer and he greeted me by my name. I also enjoyed borrowing a bicycle a riding into the village.

We loved our vacation to Hopkins Bay Resort! Every staff member we encountered was friendly, attentive, and went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. The food was amazing, with a variety of delicious options to choose from at every meal. The entire resort was spotlessly clean, beautifully maintained and truly a joy to explore. If you are looking to relax and enjoy great food and hospitality, this is the place to go! I would highly recommend it! Special thanks to Kas who booked our excursions and made sure we had a wonderful time. The resort is so lucky to have you because you made our trip the best! Thank you to King, Adalma, Tanisha and Wilbur for taking such good care of us at every meal. You made us feel like family. We appreciate everything you did to make our trip so much fun! I hope we get to go back again someday! Belize will always be one of our favorite vacations ever!

My family and I stayed at Hopkins Bay Resort last week, and overall, we had a wonderful experience. The property is absolutely beautiful—right on the ocean with stunning views, and everything was clean, well-kept, and inviting. We stayed in two 2-bedroom villas, each with spacious layouts including two bathrooms, a comfortable living room, and a fully equipped kitchen. It was perfect for our group. We also opted for the meal plan, and it was a great decision—every meal was delicious, and everyone in our party was happy with the variety and quality of the food. The only reason we're giving 4 stars instead of 5 is due to the noise from the rooms above our villas. There seems to be little to no sound insulation, and it often sounded like furniture was being moved around upstairs. It was loud enough to make relaxing or falling asleep a challenge at times. Had we known that the villas had an upper level that could be occupied by other guests, we likely would have rented those rooms as well to ensure more peace and quiet. That said, we truly enjoyed our stay, and with that one caveat, we would definitely recommend Hopkins Bay Resort to others—especially for families or groups looking for a scenic and well-appointed getaway
