Beaches & Dreams
A family-owned Beach Resort in Hopkins, Belize
Our family has worked tirelessly to bring together a luxurious beach scene, authentic adventure, fine dining, and a team that really cares, to create what we truly believe is the best all-inclusive experience in Belize.
You’ll have access to both of our resorts, Beaches and Dreams and Cabana Village, featuring Hopkins’ largest seaside pool, the Barracuda for fine-dining, wood-fired pizza at the Seabar, and poolside dining at “Come as You Are”.
And although we’re all-inclusive, we’re not all exclusive, so your all-inclusive package will include a “Village Pass”, which gives you free access to dinner at Hopkins’ six best local restaurants, our golf carts, and our shuttle bus to let you explore our lovely village on us!
If this fits what you’re looking for, just create your custom package here, and we’ll get right back to you with a personalized quote.
All-Inclusive Packages
The staff in the office and the restaurant were very helpful and extremely friendly. The beach cabana I stayed in was large, comfortable, and had a great view of the beach and ocean. The restaurant offered a good selection of foods, an open view of the ocean and beach, and excellent service. The resort was within walking distance of four very good restaurants, and the free access to bicycles to the village was an added bonus. All in all, it was an excellent choice for those who are active, appreciate good food and scenery and love adventure tours. - DBS - 2/01/2025 Beachfront Accommodations

First family trip outside of the USA and we had a rough first day. Melanie, in the front office, arranged a trip to a clinic for our son who smashed his face on the ocean from flipping off the big dock of another resort. Dr. Valentine took great care of us. Restaurant staff were extremely accommodating, supportive and attentive to us while we were so out of sorts.
The menu is small but EVERYTHING is delicious and fresh. Definitely try the Family Lunch if available. We already miss our breakfasts and we’re sad to only have one day with the Sea Bar. Best Pizza and Kebobs!
Our drivers, our tour guides, the office staff and Barracuda gang went above and beyond for every task and request. Ruger, the 19-yr old resort dog, was a bit temperamental but always happy, and he was my one son’s favorite resort member. The local boys were my other son’s favorite people. They hung out every day.
Cabana rooms are clean, spacious, comfortable. We stayed in Scarlett McCaw and our boys in Garden Haven. Two separate rooms/entrances in one cabana. Perfect for our family. Water pressure and toilets are slower here. And that was ok once we adjusted our attitudes.
We were hardly ever in the rooms because we were busy with our adventures and being outside. Everything being arranged and scheduled for us made this experience so amazing that we are already planning our next trip.
Snorkeling, Jungle Horse, Xunatunich, Cave Tubing, Monkey River and Zip Lining at Angel Falls. We saw sharks, schools of fish, beautiful coral, monkeys, crocodiles, bats, toucans, pelicans, ruins that are thousands of years old, and the cleanest water around. We learned so much about Hopkins, Belizeans, culture and history . All of our drivers and guides were passionate.
Weather had canceled an adventure so when we begged for some magic from Melanie and Lauren. Not only did they rearrange our last two days for us but they sent us to a more extreme zip lining company snd I’m so grateful because it was the highlight for all of us. Definitely request Angel Falls if you are the adrenaline seeker. I’m not. I survived. I get motion sick and don’t like heights but Frisco and Jose made me feel so safe and comfortable that I would do it again.
We did not need as much cash as we brought. Restaurant gratuity can be added to the room. We tipped our drivers and guides in cash. Souvenirs in cash are a little cheaper but most places take credit cards.
There are shops in Dangriga Airport. You can buy sunscreen and bug spray there. We brought 4 sunscreen and 2 bug sprays. Needed extra bug spray; we had sun protective clothing and I had a neck fan.
Rent the golf cart. Go into Hopkins. It felt like the safest place on the planet. If you want other snacks, go to the grocery store. I know it might seem different to eat at only certain times when you’re on vacation but it was plenty and perfect (except your arrival travel day if you were like us - we were a hot mess that first day, and they loved on us like family).
I will be back. I see a Ladies trip in my future. - Shehla - 7/26/2023read moreread less - - Jo
The employees at Beaches & Dreams are what makes this resort so fabulous. It is a small resort with only 11 rooms. Because of the smaller size, we really got to know the employees and the other guests. One of my friends hurt her back while there. Melanie in the office called the local pharmacy to ask about a back brace, but they didn't have any. So, Melanie had her husband bring hers from home which she sold to my friend. Wow! That's genuine customer service. - Jo - 2/20/2023 read moreread less - - BrandyBeaches and Dreams is truly something special. From the moment you arrive, you feel like you’ve discovered a hidden gem.
Every excursion was incredible. The snorkeling was crystal-clear and unforgettable, and the Mayan ruins paired with cave tubing was so much fun, and the waterfall repel and zip line was hands-down one of the coolest experiences I’ve ever had. I even caught a Barracuda while fishing and the chef cooked it fried and grilled!
The beach itself is stunning—peaceful, beautiful, and exactly what you imagine when you picture Belize. I stayed in a beachfront cabana, which was amazing. Waking up to the ocean steps from your door never gets old.
And the food—wow. The chef is absolutely phenomenal. Breakfast, lunch, dinner, the nightly specials—every single meal was outstanding. It felt like a culinary experience, not just resort food.
What truly sets Beaches and Dreams apart, though, is the hospitality. It’s beyond awesome. Everyone introduces themselves, learns your name, and genuinely cares about your experience. It’s elegant and classy, and feels like family. You don’t feel like a guest—you feel like you belong.
People like Kmike, King, Moses, Floyd, Keith, Darlene, Oz, Justin (best bartender!), and so many others made this stay unforgettable. By the end, it felt like I’d been coming here for years.
And Belize is an amazing place. It’s beautiful and the people/culture is unlike any other place I have visited. I have vacationed all over the world, and there is something truly unique and special about this place. I can’t describe it - you just have to visit.
If you’re looking for a place that blends beauty, adventure, incredible food, and heart—Beaches and Dreams is it. I can’t wait to go back. 🌴💙 - Brandy - 12/17/2025read moreread less - - MarcyWe had the most outstanding trip of our lives. We couldn’t ask for any better hospitality, food, excursions….
Ask for Keith, and Victor for your excursions!!!

Tom Marcy Straight - Marcy - 9/03/2025read moreread less - - TateWe had an amazing stay at Beaches and Dreams for our honeymoon!
The entire staff was incredible. The front desk/office was welcoming and friendly and were helpful with whatever we needed.
The restaurant staff (Miss P, Ben, Amanda) made our stay very special. They were personable and took moments during their food service to connect with us as people. The stay would not have been the same without them!
The tour staff (Oz, Manuel, Keith) had an absurd amount of knowledge about Belize and its history. We could listen to them talk about these excursions and their experiences for days!
Overall, the Beaches and Dreams experience was unforgettable and we will most certainly be coming back!
- Tate and Siana Hilgenkamp - Tate - 10/20/2025read moreread less - - KellyHighly recommend, particularly for groups. We had six families, 21 people, and Beaches and Dreams staff worked with us to coordinate a group trip with different packages to meet the needs of each family. The resort itself is the perfect size for such a trip. Our teenagers (and several of the adults) could play volleyball any time they wanted. There was never a battle for pool chairs or space. The paddle boards, bikes, and golf carts were readily available most of the time.
But the best thing about Beaches and Dreams is, by far, the people. Every one of them is friendly, enthusiastic, and so good at what they do. The bartenders kept the drinks flowing, with a variety of delicious cocktails (included in the drink package) and even got creative and a few new ones to hit the spot with our party. The restaurant, Barracuda, was fantastic. They managed our group of 21 perfectly, and the food was delicious every time. Between the regular menu and specials, I had something different every time and still left without trying everything I wanted to. The tour guides and drivers for the excursions are so knowledgeable about the area and happy to share that information. The people of Hopkins are friendly and we felt safe and welcomed at all times.
Thanks for a great week, Beaches and Dreams! - Kelly - 7/14/2024read moreread less - - michellegQ3955ET
This is the best place to stay in all of Belize - they make it welcoming and relaxing. They take care of everything, we had to make zero arrangements while we were there. They are beyond friendly and go out of their way to make your trip memorable. - michellegQ3955ET - 2/13/2023 read moreread less - - StephanieHighly recommend. We had a great time. Very kid friendly. Food was fantastic and service was top notch! We will definitely go back! Shout out to Oz, Ben, Amanda, Miss P, Victor, Justin, Keith, Manuel, Armando, Milky and Kimike. Y’all made our week UNBELIZEABLE!! - Stephanie - 6/28/2024read moreread less
