This hotel is located in downtown San Pedro on the oceanfront. You can easily walk most of San Pedro directly from the hotel. You feel safe walking during the daytime and at dusk. There are many restaurants, no chain restaurants but all locally owned restaurant of various quality. There is a restaurant at the hotel but we didn't try it. Keep in mind that in San Pedro there are no all inclusives. The hotel is very clean and provides filtered water. The small pool is very clean. We went the first week of April and we had no mosquitoes at all. The streets of San Pedro are very narrow and busy, you need to be very cautious because it can be very crowded with pedestrians, golf carts, motorcycles, bicycles... and there are no sidewalks. There are very few cars and trucks anywhere, just more golf carts than you can imagine. Rent a golf cart if you want to go to Secret Beach, the only really nice beach on the island, about 40 minutes by golf cart. If you do rent a golf cart, just be aware of that all streets are very bumpy everywhere.
We flew from Belize City to San Pedro, a 15 minute flight by puddle jumper. It cost a lot more than taking the ferry, but it was worth it. The ferry is 90 minutes one way.
This hotel has a relationship with Ambergris Divers, and I was able to arrange my initial scuba dives at the hotel lobby. Also, Ambergris Divers is about a 10-minute walk from the hotel so there's no problem just walking over there to do everything in person there.
