UGGHHHHH---
We had dinner at the restaurant our first night and I know people that own condos here and I know the owner-however the Chef/Waiter at the restaurant CHARGED US DOUBLE for what should have been ONE SEAFODD PLATTER-there was not enough food for 2 people--we had 2 small lobster tail, one scoop of rice, one serving of vegetable and 8 SHRIMP. I live in Belmopan and this should have been $75 BZD not the $150 BZD were charged and I complained to the owner who said she would take care of it--however went to go check out today and NOPE THE CHARGES WERE ON OUR BILL ---honestly this kind of customer service that is not okay for anyone, especially for Belizean locals!! The picture is what I was charged $150 BZD--not worth it!!

The resort is well developed. The interior is a bit antiquated but clean and functional. The resort has organized everything needed to travelers, ie.. golf cart rental (on property) WiFi passwords, on site restaurant and bar ( great food) , swimming pool and a/c unit that works great, transportation to and from the airport (additional fees) and an on site convenience store. A major plus that we didn’t realize until the end of our trip was that the resort operated on a super quiet generator. The island during our trip encountered multiple days and hours without electricity. At the resort we never were inconvenienced due to the loss of power in the area. We respectfully turned off our lights and a/c when we went out exploring the island and can’t imagine trying to sleep without a/c. The staff is friendly and treated us like royalty. This was our first stay at the resort and would stay there again without hesitation.

Quiet But Basic Accomodations
The location is probably 4 miles from the town of San Pedro. The cabanas was nice and our location was right on the beach. You must rent a golf cart for your entire stay - to get to restaurants groceries, etc. They was a restaurant on site but the the service is miserably slow and attention to detail is nonexistent. If you like quiet accommodations and far from San Pedro this is your place. Not sure if the swimming pool is fit to swim but during our 5-day stay we only saw one guy swimming there. The room was clean but I would classify it as basic accommodations.

When we came 8 years ago there were more amenities. We were a little disappointed to see that they no longer had the swim-up bar overlooking the water and you couldn't charge anything to your room. You always have to have your money with you. Lots of construction and changes happening. They should at least warn anyone trying to book. Overall, we still enjoyed our time there. Hard to have a bad time on Ambergris Caye.

We had a beautiful view of the sea from our porch. The 1 bedroom suite was very spacious and comfortable. The beach was clean but we didn't realize it would have a sea wall and you could not enter the water easily plus it was rough water. There was construction next to the Captain Morgan pool and restaurant which made it a bit dirty and ugly. However, the breakfast deal was a great option at $65 per person for the entire week. The staff was friendly, helpful and accommodating.

Our oceanfront cabana was great and had a beautiful view. Only issue we noticed was the bathroom ceiling tile is falling. A portion of the resort is under remodel, overal resort needed love. Can feel some kind of really hard surface under the sand (need more sand brought in), the grounds could be so beautiful but doesnt appear a lot of effort is put into it or maybe just really understaffed. They let us check in early which was very nice. The staff was friendly, there is a store there which is nice since you're a little ways from town but wouldnt say they are very friendly. Restaurant was subpar. Only ones there and still messed up my husbands order but in all fairneas only ate there once. Pool was nice, we used the one at Oceans 23 (next door) which is better kept then the 2 at Capt. Morgans. For the price it was an ok stay, it is a little ways from town, some road construction, lots of speed bumps

Unusable Beach and Overpriced Dinner
Overall, we really liked the two story cabana which was great for a family of four to have some room to spread out. The view from the balcony was excellent and the staff were extremely friendly (which you'll find all over Belize). The reason we gave this a lower rating was because when we checked in, the receptionist said, "We recommend that you not swim on our beach because the Sargassum grass in the water may cause health issues." That would have been very good information to know before we booked this place!!! We ended up having to rent a golf cart to drive several miles over to secret beach for the 'only' place without Sargassum. Secondly, the first night we had their fish special at the hotel restaurant and it didn't have a price on it. The fish was excellent but we were still hungry after, then the bill came for $150 USD (which only had two beers). Between the unusable beach and the overpriced dinner, it put us in a bad frame of mind on this Caye being a tourist trap. I'll re-iterate that the staff was awesome and the grounds are beautiful.

All the staff from the reception area to the restaurant were very friendly. The main pool had construction going on but was beautiful to have breakfast at the pool. The other pool, which belongs to the adjacent resort on property was absolutely breathtaking. You could walk into the pool just as if you were from the shoreline to the ocean, which I loved. No steps to get in and out of the pool. My beach front cabana room was very comfortable and had all the necessities required, including a nice front patio
