Even with some Covid related restrictions and curfews, I couldn't have asked for a better time! The all inclusive was amazing (food at the resort was delicious)!! The adventures were super cool, some of my favorites were the cave tubing, zip lining, and snorkeling but I hope to try the ATM tour next time! On our off day, we got to experience the village and meet local people, who are all extremely welcoming and friendly! The people are truly what made this trip so memorable! The staff at the resort are ones I won't ever forget! From Armando, Oz, Miss P, Milky, and Ben to name a few! They all made sure connections were established and you felt like family from the moment you stepped on the resort! The post travel blues are in full affect after this trip and I look forward to coming back! read less - gracymowers

We are a group of mixed ages and abilities. The resort easily accommodates this variety. The relaxation opportunities are wonderful from lounging to massages to floating in the pool. The opportunities for the more adventurous range from caving to hiking and are breathtaking. The tour guides are friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating.
Now let’s talk about the staff — or should I say “family” — who work at beaches and dreams. They are wonderful and might even be the best part of the trip. The people are genuine and happy. They are so welcoming and we just felt close to them. They know all of our names and even the bartender knows our itinerary.
I cannot say enough about the employees but an extra special shout out to Ms. P and Ben. Ms P is WONDERFUL. Aside from being a fantastic waitress, she is obviously a WONDERFUL human. She chatted with us in a manner that was genuine and real. I absolutely love her and hope to see her again. Ben is more reserved but his smile lights up the bar. He’s a great bartender and took care of all our special requests. He worked extremely hard while we were visiting and had a smile on his face.
I’m getting long winded so some other helpful details: beds good pillows and towels. Plenty of water in the rooms, small refrigerator, ice outside rooms, nice seating area, great solitary places to relax and great group places to relax.
We loved our Beaches and Dreams vacation and highly recommended. read less - Anna

For starters, the village of Hopkins in Belize was an incredibly kind and low-key community. It was safe and full of things to do, as well as great traditional food to try out. The staff at Beaches and Dreams was amazing. Everyone was extremely kind, helpful and personable. Being able to customize adventure tours with beaches and dreams was also a huge highlight for us. It’s a smaller resort, which made our beach area much more peaceful and private, in my opinion. The staff all knew us by name. The drinks were great, and the food at their restaurant was some of the best food we had in Belize. I would definitely return to Hopkins and stay again at Beaches and Dreams. I highly recommend this resort! read less - Becky

The staff at Beaches and Dreams were incredibly accommodating, the rooms immaculate and well appointed, the excursions absolutely phenomenal. Shout out to Melanie and the office staff for meeting our needs with a 13yo having broken her foot a week prior to arrival. Armondo in the restaurant who will do everything in his power to please. The food was out of this world delicious! Ben makes the best drinks, is so informative of local culture, and always has a smile on his face. Be sure to get a rum punch from bartender Birdman. And with a crew of children, security guard Felix was so reassuring with his serious and steadfast watch over our families each night. I’d swear he’d take a bullet for us not that we had any fear in this wonderful and friendly community of Hopkins Village.
As for the excursions, we packed them in. Monkey River was a full day of land and sea with huge success in seeing howler monkeys, crocodiles, and manatees and learning more about this beautiful country. The Mayan ruin tour was impressive and the massive site an amazement. That day included cave tubing and blue hole swimming which cannot be replicated anywhere! Our guide Manuel was the best! Our chocolate tour was so interesting and kept us close to ‘home’ so we had education and relaxation combined with some yummy. Our last day of snorkeling with Captain Floyd and diver Kimike was about the most incredible experience I’ve ever had. The phrase I heard ‘like swimming in a fish tank’ was spot on. The colors and abundance of life in that beautiful reef matched with the experience and knowledge of our guides made for lifelong memories.
Beaches and Dreams lives up to its name. I will forever dream of its beautiful vistas and the incredible hospitality of the staff. Until next time… read less - kkH3661YR - - Matthew

Making arrangements and planning excursions was a Caribbean breeze as Ryan and Melissa helped us with recommendations and suggestions. (Ryan is very responsive when contacting him with questions or concerns) We booked a cabana(knowing it didn't have air) and enjoyed Belize as God would have intended. We loved the intimate setting of the resort and got to know a lot of the people who make this resort really work! Everyone is very friendly and one would almost feel guilty because of how accommodating everyone on staff is. This resort does not refer you to an adventure tour company to book excursions. All of the excursions we took were guided by the staff of the resort. All said, We had a wonderful, worry free escape. We will return. More read less - Matthew

Everything was well planned which was great because we had a lot of activities planned! It felt like home away from home for almost 2 weeks and was easy to relax, and not worry about a thing! All of the staff is amazing! Front desk, drivers, cleaning crew, servers…they all make you feel like part of the family! I could honestly go on and on about how incredible it was, but I’ll shorten to 10/10 recommend! I’ll be back!! read less - Emily

My husband and I went in June of 2021 for our honeymoon that was rescheduled from June 2020. The staff is outstanding, incredibly kind and knowledgeable. The tours were perfect, the guides are second to none. And cannot forget Ruger, the owners dog, sweetest little fur baby ever. He is living his best life on that beautiful beach. I am not one that likes to go to the same place twice while traveling and I can say without a doubt, I will be back. This trip was second to none. So so worth every single cent spent. read less - Kenzie
