Belize Ranches | Places to Stay in Belize

May 2, 2023 Lean Nau

According to famed diver Jacques Cousteau, the Great Blue Hole of Belize is one of the most spectacular dive sites on earth. The crystal-clear sapphire waters are home to colorful tropical fish and several species of reef sharks – ideal for brave divers who love to get up close and personal with sea life. On dry ground, diverse rainforests, mangrove swamps, and Mayan ruins are perfect for exploration. The beaches of Belize are sunny and tranquil spots for a day of relaxation.

Cool M Farm

Awesome!

Reviewed By Nina P

I have not stayed here because I live locally but I always buy their yoghurt. It is the most amazing yoghurt I have ever eaten! Today I watched Janet making butter and separating out the buttermilk. Many fresh eggs sitting on the sideboard. The farm setting is unbeatable and very peaceful. I met the parrot who is friendly and chatty and the new puppy who is adorable! I know the family a bit and they are very lovely. I have no doubt that staying at the farm is wonderful!

Harry's Cozy Cabanas

Harry's Cozy Cabanas was built with the desire to share one man's home and all its quaintness beauty and charm with all those who visit. We are one of the few areas in the village that still has the old fishing village feel while adding modern amenities, WiFi and on site parking. Our cabanas are built from Belizean hardwood and are on stilts giving them that authentic old Belize cabin feeling. All the cabanas have full kitchens and queen beds. You will find comfort on our verandas with private hammocks, tables, chairs and amazing views of the Caribbean Sea. You can settle in a chase lounge or hammock on the beach and enjoy a good book or nap, snorkel and swim right from your cabana. We are walking distance to the center of the village, grocery stores, vegetable stands, restaurants, gift shops, and famous sidewalk. We can't wait to share the tranquility and beauty of Harry's home with you here at Harry’s Cozy Cabanas and thanks in advance for making us your home away from home.

Tradewinds Hotel

Misleading photos

Reviewed By Ushi-Guide

Make sure your booking is for a cabana, and not for a "room in boutique hotel"! Those 2 rooms are so tiny less than 10 sq. meters. The location is top , the cabanas look nice, the property grounds are taken care off, however the "room in boutique hotel" are a very bad joke. Photos are showing the cabanas even if you for book actually the boutique hotel room - misleading advertising

Fantasy Island Eco Resort

Nice small island with personalised tailored service

Reviewed By Henri L

Fantasy Island is a very nice small island 30 min boat away from Dangriga. We spent 6 days there with my wife. It is a small paradise away from big towns and modern world. Perfect top enjoy sun and sea activities like diving, snorkelling and fishing. Eddie who is the island manager (also managing isla marisol resort) is very nice and answering any request for tailored service or diving questions. Prices are very reasonable for the extremely nice location and the quality of service and food.

Coco Breeze Cabanas

Coco Breeze Cabanas is truly a quaint, tranquil and magical little place. Cabanas are located just steps away from the ocean, each with private verandas perfect for curling up and watching the sunrise. Queen-sized bed or two twins, hot showers, fridges/coffee makers, security lock-boxes, on-site parking with security.The beach here is one of the best beaches in Belize - great for swimming or just relaxing in the sun with a great book! Great restaurants, bike-rentals, groceries and tour operators are all within a 5 minute walk. Buses pass into Hopkins twice daily and drop guests off right at the driveway to Coco Breeze. Guests can also be picked up at the main highway/junction into Hopkins (4 miles) for those who are not on the direct Hopkins bus.

SPA and massage

Reviewed By AndreaL6827

Tried so many spa center and massages in Bali, Gili T, Gili Meno and Air but this one is definitely the best. Very clean, modern, calm and friendly. Prices are absolutely okay, like in the other spa's on the island. Last but not least, very tasty tea in the end!

Tucked away in a growing garden setting in beautiful "down town" Placencia Village; Garden Cabanas is the ideal hideaway for your visit to the Placencia Peninsula. While not located right on the beach Garden Cabanas' convenient location is just minutes - that's walking time, not driving time - from the most scenic and popular spots around. These newly built hardwood one-room cabanas are equipped with a full kitchen, one queen & one twin size bed and private bath with hot/cold/pressure. Ceiling fans add to the ever-present Caribbean breeze. Perfect for a couple or single traveler for a few nights or a few weeks, Garden Cabanas is the place for those that like to do their own thing while in paradise.

Clean, reasonable priced, Rustic!

Reviewed By badavy13

The Cabanas are definitely conveniently located as advertised. Everything really needed was there. Bathroom was actually quite decent with a real good shower. Tap water is drinkable, Really! The large cabana we had was quite spartan but functional. Area is fairly quiet with the exception of traffic down the dusty street very close to cabana. With all the wndow shutters wide open, the dust is fairly annoying. Overhead ceiling fan was good, nights were cool enough to sleep with windows open. Tom was quite helpful to our needs and the housekeeper Nellie did a great job for us. Overall, the experience was quite good if you are prepared for "rustic". The price for a week dictates that you will not be in luxury.

Simple beach bungalows right on the water

Reviewed By tompine0327

Second stop at Barnacle Bill's Beach Bungalows in 12 months. When we started talking about coming back to Belize, my wife and Immediately said, "Barnacle Bill's" This is not a luxury accommodation, but certainly has everything you need. The simplicity of this place is in perfect harmony with the reason we loved spending time in Belize. The world will be a better place, if as it changes, this place is frozen in time. I would give it 10 stars if I could. Thanks for the memories guys....

Bird watching, fishing and snorkelling

Great location to ocean, large cabins, fully functioning kitchens, no AC but good fans. Front porch with hammock was great. We could have more use of the kitchen but didn't feel like cooking. Also an option for suites which are also roomy.
