YOUR INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT

International flight map to belize

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:

  1. As you can see from our map, you can get direct flights to Belize from 19 cities and 7 countries.
  2. Many direct flights are only on Fridays or Saturdays, so be sure to check with your airline.
  3. 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.
  4. 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!

Our week at Beaches and Dreams will live as one of the most memorable vacations we've had. I would not hesitate to book this resort again. The staff is so friendly and helpful, and seemed always to be working hard at making sure guests are getting everything they need and having a great time. The resort itself is very small, so we ran into many of the same people daily which we thought was very nice. Even when we took a golf cart into the village we found the people to be very friendly. I would absolutely suggest booking the food and drink package, we're so glad we did as the meals were so delicious and with the different nightly specials there were plenty of choices. There are bicycles, kayaks, and paddle boards available to borrow, golf carts available to rent, and you can arrange shuttles; all making it really easy to get around. We also booked several tours with the resort, and had a great time at every one. We are beach walkers, and were really happy to find out that Hopkins keeps its sand and water open to everyone so we were able to walk the beach as far as we wanted. We have been to many places over the years but I don't think any other destination tops the level of service, friendliness, and food we found at B&D. Thank you for a great week! - Crystal - 2/12/2026
