Top Santa Cruz Hotel Reviews

Maya Beach Hotel

10/10 Excellent

"It’s always a pleasure going back to Maya Beach hotel. Their rooms are great and very well equipped, ideal for a longer stays. Their food is fantastic and the staff is always helpful and friendly. Their rates are very good and we’ve been upgraded to better rooms most of the times we stayed there. See you soon."

Umaya Resort & Adventures

10/10 Excellent

"Great value in Placencia"

Seiri del Mar

10/10 Excellent

"We enjoyed how welcome we felt as we were greeted. The property is beautiful and we would absolutely stay here again."

Itz'ana Resort & Residences

8/10 Good

"This beautiful property is a hidden gem. The staff was warm, welcoming, and accommodating and the grounds are beautiful. There was not a ton of other guest which was nice to keep a relaxing vibe but some of the activities were limited. You could not enjoy the ocean because of the accumulation of sargassum and the water pressure needed to be consistently stronger. Despite this, I would gladly return and highly recommend Itz’ana for your next Belizean vacay!"

Almond Beach Resort at Jaguar Reef

10/10 Excellent

"The rooms are modern with TV, fridge and coffee maker with capsule provided. Very spacious bathroom with big walk-in shower. Cold AC and ceiling fan in each room. Expansive your own outdoor patio. Nice /clean pool with the bar and pizza maker very nearby. Prices on drinks and food are reasonable. We use room service and order all meals into the room. Amazing see pier with two story at the end and the bar. My twin boys jump all the time from there into the see. Every night staff making a fire pit and provided with marshmallows and sticks. Fill very safe inside and outside the resort. Perfect place for family with small children(s). Highly recommended...great location, amenities and prices compare to AIRNB/VRBO rentals."

Villas at Playa de Coco

8/10 Good

"Arrived late after communicating with the desk staff that I may arrive after the cutoff. Was able to get to my room and get some food before the resturant closed. The roof bar had a nice view and the pools and beach were well maintained except for a large hole in the surface area of one of the wadding areas. The people were friendly and accommodating and the area was nice. All said a good experience."

The Lodge at Jaguar Reef

10/10 Excellent

"We rented a home that was managed by the Lodge atjaguar reef with access to all of the facilities and amenities at the Lodge. The home was spacious and comfortable. The lodge staff was very much available and accommodating. I’d stay again and recommend it."

Sandpiper Beach Cabanas

8/10 Good

"Overall a good place on the beach"

Azure Del Mar

10/10 Excellent
