Getting to Beaches and Dreams
Learn about traveling to Belizes’s best all-inclusive resort on the closest beach to reef, jungle, and Maya adventures.
YOUR INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT
We’ll handle everything once you arrive at Philip S.W. Goldson International Airport (BZE), but you’ll need to book your international flights. Here are a few helpful hints:
- As you can see from our map, you can get direct flights to Belize from 19 cities and 7 countries.
- Many direct flights are only on Fridays or Saturdays, so be sure to check with your airline.
- Expedia.com is a great way to check all the airlines at once, but SouthWest Airlines often has deals, and you’ll need to use their website directly.
- Our jungle plane to the resort leaves every hour, but you’ll want to arrive by 3pm to clear customs in time to catch our last flight.
BY JUNGLE PLANE
If you’ve let us arrange your air transport from Belize city, get ready for some fun! Once you exit customs with your bags, you’ll see the Tropic Air checkin desk. Just walk up, tell them your name and that you’re with Beaches and Dream and you’ll be treated like royalty! They’ll take your bags and direct you to the local terminal where you’ll get on the next available jungle plane (they leave hourly). The flight is approximately 20 minutes. When you arrive at our local air strip, one of our drivers will be there to escort you to the resort.
BY GROUND TRANSPORT
If we’ve arranged this for you, one of our drivers will greet you with a sign with your name on it as soon as you’ve collected your bags and exit customs. He’ll take it from there and drive you the 2 hours from Belize City to the resort!
BY CAR
We hope that you’ve allowed us to arrange transport here for you because driving a car here in Belize is expensive and not particularly fun (please just let us know if you’d like us to arrange transport for you by writing reservations@beachesanddreams.com)! The good news however, is that there are only a few roads in Belize. The road to Hopkins is just off of the Southern Highway, 14 miles south of the Hummingbird Highway. Once you get to Hopkins Village, just head south on the main road for about 2.5 miles and you’re home!
This is a wonderful boutique resort! We were here Saturday to Saturday in early March. The staff is amazing and go above and beyond to make your stay enjoyable. We did lots of excursions including snorkeling the barrier reef, Mayan ruins, cave tubing, Monkey river, ATV ride and bioluminescent lagoon. We had a fabulous time on all of them. The day we went snorkeling the water was rough but Captain Floyd did his best to make the ride a little smoother. Kamike was great at pointing out a leopard ray and lots of cool stuff on the reef. The restaurant staff (Ms P, Amanda, Milky, Ben, Kelsy, Doreen, and so many more!) were always pleasant and the food was top notch. The chef prepared specials daily that were so good. A couple recommendations: definitely bring lots of bug repellant! Also, the bio tour would be great when there's no moon. The moon was so bright that the bio lagoon wasn't as spectacular, but it was still cool to see. They also go the extra mile to schedule tours when it's not as busy with cruise ship traffic. We felt very safe and well taken care of! A quick note to also thank the office staff, Justin who was "Johnny on the spot" for all our needs. Darnell, Darnel, and Nadine helped us with our schedule, Keith was great on our Mayan Ruins and cave tubing day. So many great experiences! I hope I got everyone! We love you guys!
