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 boyfriend and I came across Beaches & Dreams through a Google search and booked pretty quickly. We were a bit nervous as we felt we booked a little spontaneously and wondered if more research should have been done. However, upon arriving we quickly realized we had found such a gem and knew instantly we would be coming back throughout our lives.
We stayed in The Garden Room, which is one of the beach-front Cabanas, had the all-inclusive package and had booked three excursions (1/2 day Fishing, Monkey River and 1/2 day Snorkeling). We felt this was a good amount of excursions as we wanted time at the resort as well to relax, use the amenities and chat up the staff.
The cabanas were wonderful. Very spacious and clean upon arrival, with cleaning services happening throughout our week-long stay. Although there was no AC, we felt very comfortable as the beach offers such a breeze and fans were provided in our room.
The excursions exceeded all of our expectations. Fishing was insanely fun and the weather was perfect. We kept three fish and that night the chef even prepared our best fish for us FOUR DIFFERENT WAYS. We felt that excursion led into the whole night. Monkey River was wonderful and a great way to see more inland areas of Belize. We saw so many animals and felt it was a great cultural experience. Snorkeling was incredible - They make sure you feel comfortable in your gear before going out to two different snorkeling sites. I always felt safe and the views were incredible. Our guide even caught lobster while we were there, which was then served to us for dinner that night. Again - what a full day experience!
The resort is so quaint and beautiful. The beach was always clean and there are so many amenities to keep you busy if you do not have an excursion booked. But, truly what made our experience was the staff. You could not ask for kinder, funnier, warm-hearted individuals to spend your week with. Shoutout to all of those who made our trip what it was (Oz, Darnell, Laren, Armondo, Amanda, Flyod, Kimike, Bird, Milky, Ben, Cesar, and those working behind the scenes) - We cannot thank you enough!!
We escaped from reality for a week and we are already planning our next trip. There are not enough words to encapsulate how highly we think of this resort. The drinks and food were out of this world! There isn't a single thing on the menu that we wouldn't order twice.
Thank you for providing such hospitality, offering white-glove service, fine dining and a personable staff. We can't wait to be back! read less - Cassandra - - Christopher

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. read less - Shehla - - tracyh134

We only got to complete 3 out of 4 excursions because of the storm, but each one was special. The Garifuna Immersion was so informative. I enjoyed learning about their culture and cooking a traditional meal. Xunantunich and cave tubing was an exhausting but wonderful day. Oz is a very knowledgeable tour guide. Lunch was offsite in one of the towns. Cave tubing was perfect accompanied tour to cool off. The Hurricane put a pause on our trip, but the staff took great care of us with room service and extra supplies. We enjoyed renting a golf cart to go into Hopkins village after the stay in place was lifted. Last day was the southern ruins and spice farm. Perfect ending excursion for the trip.
Restaurant, Barracuda, was exceptional for our meals and drinks. Dinners were light and fresh, expertly prepared. Love the staff, especially Amanda, Cesar, and miss P. Ben makes great drinks! Our favorite appetizers were the ones we ordered that day. They keep changing as we ordered something different each night to try. Shrimp nachos and family meals are must try at lunch time. Too bad fry jacks weren't offered every breakfast, only because they were so good i wanted more!
We are looking to coming back for another visit. Thank you for an amazing trip. read less - tracyh134
