Hopkins Bay Belize Resort, is a fantastic property. It's located at one end of the beautiful little beach village of Hopkins easily walking distance to some great local food places and local culture. We had a one-bedroom upper suite with views of the beach and the ocean. It was so quiet and beautiful. The team running the resort were all very friendly and helpful, everyone called me by name and vibe was very relaxed and comfortable. The room was cleaned and the drinking water refilled every day. I loved that it was clean and cool inside but not sterile like a corporate hotel.
We were getting scuba certified so most of our days we were going to and from the Belize Underwater dive center. Transportation was arranged by the resort and we had lovely friendly drivers. There was a fantastic activity desk, but since we were diving, we didn't book any additional tours through them. The lobby has a small shop built in with a few necessities (sunscreen etc) in case you need them and a few treats (candy, soda and chips) in case you just want a snack. The Rhum Shack restaurant/bar is really delicious and reasonably priced. The drinks are cold, delicious and refreshing. The food was so fresh, delicious well-seasoned flavors and good variety. We enjoyed all our meals there, but particularly the stuffed fry jacks at breakfast and the lobster, pastas and salads at dinner. I also tried the ribeye and it was wonderful.
Overall, I'd recommend this property to anyone, it was a perfect stay.
