We are not necessarily beach enthusiasts, but when we checked out the nearby public access beach (5 minutes away on foot), there were mounds of seaweed / kelp that had washed up and were starting to stink up the beach. Locals told us that this happens every year and that the beach is usually cleaned up, so it was probably just our luck that we were there before it was cleared away. This reflects nothing on the hotel property itself, but this information might be useful for those envisioning a beach vacation.

The lady at check-in, who owns and runs the place, was very friendly and helpful. She offers lots of helpful tips and information about restaurants, beach access, stores, taxi driver contact numbers, ferry schedules - you name it! We received lots of information even before our arrival, which really helped us plan our trip. The room we stayed in (Room 8, which I think is called the Jungle Room?) was wonderful! As soon as we stepped in, we felt we were at home. We appreciated the little details and the murals on the wall. Having a kitchenette was great, especially since we wanted to have some local fruit from the nearby fruit stall. You can get a 20-liter (?) container of water at reception for 3 USD, which was great since we did not have a car, and it would have been a hassle to lug so much water back to the hotel from the shop - and trust me, you need a lot of water to stay hydrated in the heat here! The bedroom area was a separate room, which made us feel more like we were in an apartment and not in a hotel room. Internet connection was great, and I was able to get some work done remotely while there. The location worked great for us as we weren't looking to party on this trip, so we purposefully chose a place far from all the action in the center of town, but we did walk into town to catch a flight to Caye Caulker, and that took about 30 minutes. It was almost 40 degrees Celsius when we were there, so the walk was not all that pleasant, but it is doable - just not when the sun is directly above you, like it was on our way back. All in all, I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a cozy place in a quiet location. We both agree that we would come back to this place if we ever find ourselves in San Pedro again!

Shame the shower had no space to put toiletries. Was quite far from the central area which meant a 40minute walk or taxi whenever we wanted to socialise/for food.

The suite was exactly what we needed. The AC worked very well and was very welcome. Jose was very helpful. We received lots of useful information prior to arrival.

Very nice hotel, the rooms are spacious

It is a bit outside of town so if you plan on needing to go into town often, would suggest renting a golf cart. It didn't matter to us since we were diving with a shop close by.

Staff were super friendly and accommodating. Great value for money. Lots of great food options nearby, and only a short ride into town (or a 30 min walk). We stayed at another place in San Pedro for almost triple the price before coming to Belize Budget Suites and wish we had just stayed here for our entire trip.

Everything was nice!

It’s a very clean lovely apartment equipped with almost everything you need. The only things they could have is oil in the kitchen, but other than that it was exceptional. The staff is super helpful and it’s located in a very quiet street away from all loud traffic. We loved it 😊

Nothing

A small hotel with a big heart! Our group had two adjoining rooms with two living spaces & two kitchens. It was perfect for our needs. Lots of space. AC's worked great. Nice neighborhood not far from town, but far enough away for quiet. Jose & Miriam were the highlight of our trip! They greeted us each day with a smile. Jose was so helpful in recommending specific tour operators that were exceptional. We felt like family. The residents of San Pedro/Ambergris Caye are so kind & friendly!

The staff was nice but recommended us an overpriced snorkel tour which was not worth the money. Also for renting a golf cart same. It would have been nice to get a pick up from the ferry as an easy start and service.

It was a nice stay, calm area. The staff was very friendly and supportive for our activities. The room was great, colorful and comfy. The kitchen had everything we needed.

The water pressure in the shower could be a little stronger. The walls are maybe a bit thin, but the overall location is very quiet, so no big deal.

Functional and clean room, in convenient location, just 10 minutes away from San Pedro town using a golf cart (and the town seems quite noise, would not want to stay right in the center). Price/value ratio is very good and staff if very helpful. AirCon works really great (which is quite key in the humid and warm weather of Belize in March). I would recommend it!

A Bbq would have been nice. But maybe that’s just me. I am a professional chef

The decor in the room was amazing. Very well groomed property. The fully functional kitchen was great

It is quiet.. a little outside of town. Love the colors.

The staff is absolutely amazing. They will bend over backwards to make sure that you are happy and content and well taken care of. Jose is absolutely adorable and his wife is very helpful as well although we didn’t get to know her as well. I’m sure she was doing all the work behind-the-scenes. Please tell Jose and the gang we said hello when you go to visit

We were advised to pre-book a golf cart through the hotel, which was unnecessary and overpriced vs other companies. Location is further from eateries and bars than expected.

Great room and facilities, with beautifully kept grounds.

Nothing could have been better.

This place is the best value you will find in all of San Pedro. The rooms are updated and finished very nicely. The coffee is amazing and the hosts were very nice and accommodating. The beds were comfortable, including the fold out futon. The sheets were soft and the shower is just amazing. Tons of hot water and soaps were provided. It is just a 1/2 mile south of the action in San Pedro/Amberguis Cay. If it were located in the middle of the bar/restaurant scene the price would be double what they charge at least. Tucked 1 block into a neighborhood with a very large lot and beautiful plants and trees you will wake to the sounds of mother nature. If I ever go back to San Pedro I will look to book this property. If you are on the fence, don't waste anymore time and book this place!

Nothing. A perfect place to call home.

Perfect place to stay in Ambergris Caye. I walked to nice restaurants, the beach was walkable, and the neighborhood safe and quiet. Great value for the money. Full kitchen if you want to cook.

I don't have anything negative to say about this location.

The location was close to food and a beach. There was a place to cook and a fridge to keep my fruit cold.

No complaints

Location was out of the maelstrom of San Pedro, located in a residential neighborhood; peaceful. Nicely landscaped. Staff/ownership were friendly and responsive.

We really liked the unique style and theme of each room and appreciated the room’s amenities (coffee machine, microwave, all kitchen essentials, hot showers, AC). Nani and Jose were very friendly and gave us great recommendations for dinner, cab companies, and dive shops. We tried most of their recommendations and had a fabulous time! The grounds were also well kept and I wish we had had more time to sit outside with a cup of coffee and birdwatch. Overall, a wonderful stay and we hope to be back soon!
