Guest adventures & stories
How it actually feels once you're here
The guestbook says the same thing again and again: the water is unreal, the staff makes the trip effortless, and every family finds its own version of adventure.
A piece of heaven here on earth... First trip to Belize & cannot say enough about our experience! The joy girls felt the entire trip... swimming with sharks, rays, starfish, conch. The gorgeous setting, pools & most importantly the PEOPLE. The kids got to be kids & parents did too... so many new experiences; incredible weather, beautiful accommodations. Thank you for having this dream & opening it up to us. We hope to return soon. Truly, the staff made the trip the most fun, leisurely, recharging ever - Gill, Mike, Jaime, Sergio, Nathalie, Diana, Omar, Mr. B(?), the sweet housekeeping. The snorkel platform - our favorite!
Floating platform afternoons between snorkel runs 
Easy group scuba stops once everyone is in the water 
First reef-drop moments become the stories everybody keeps telling
Wow, what a truly amazing place! The scenery is breathtaking, the facilities fantastic, and the staff's hospitality was the best. We enjoyed all the activities from snorkeling, diving, kayaking, paddle boarding, swimming & lounging around the pool, the platform as Mexico Rocks, seeing the school in San Pedro, playing "Jungle Ball", extreme puzzling, and peaceful sleeps. A special thank you to Gil for teaching Jason how to scuba dive - it was a huge thrill for him! And to Mike for guiding us through Hol Chan. Thank you again for sharing your home with us.
