Belizean Shores Resort

Belizean Shores Resort Overview

First Impressions

You know what struck me first about Belizean Shores Resort? It’s that perfect sweet spot where you get genuine Caribbean charm without the pretense of those massive resort chains. Located about 3.5 miles north of San Pedro, this three-star property sits right on Ambergris Caye — and honestly, the setting is what dreams are made of. The moment you arrive, there’s this immediate sense that you’ve found something special, but not in an overwhelming way.

The Perfect Island Location

Being just outside San Pedro’s main hustle means you get the best of both worlds. I mean, you’re close enough to zip into town for dinner or shopping, but far enough away that you actually hear the waves at night instead of golf carts rumbling past your window. The resort sits on a gorgeous stretch of beach, and what I love is how they’ve managed to keep that authentic Belizean vibe — you’ll see local fishermen heading out in the morning, and the sunsets here are absolutely ridiculous (in the best way). Couples especially seem to get this location — and I can see why, given how romantic those evening walks along the shore become.

Accommodations That Actually Work

The rooms here aren’t trying to be something they’re not, which I actually appreciate. Each room feels thoughtfully designed with that tropical aesthetic — think bright colors, local artwork, and those ceiling fans that actually make a difference in the Caribbean heat. What really matters is that everything works: the air conditioning kicks in when you need it, the beds are comfortable, and you’ve got those little touches like a mini-fridge that’s actually useful. The views vary depending on which room you snag, but honestly, even the garden-view rooms have their charm with all that lush tropical landscaping.

Activities and Amenities

Here’s where Belizean Shores really shows its personality — they’ve got this great mix of activities that don’t feel forced or touristy. There’s a tennis court that’s surprisingly well-maintained (perfect for those early morning games before it gets too hot), and I loved seeing families actually using the playground area. The ping-pong table becomes this unexpected social hub in the evenings — you’ll find yourself chatting with other guests between games. Plus, there’s free parking right on site, which might not sound exciting but trust me, it’s one less thing to worry about when you’re planning day trips around the island.

Why Guests Love It

What keeps people coming back to this place is that it delivers exactly what it promises — no more, no less. The staff genuinely seems to care about your experience, and there’s this relaxed atmosphere where you can just be yourself. Whether you’re planning romantic dinners in San Pedro or gearing up for snorkeling adventures at Hol Chan Marine Reserve, this resort works as your home base. It’s not trying to be the fanciest place on the island, but it nails that sweet spot of comfort, location, and authentic Belizean hospitality that makes your Caribbean getaway feel real rather than manufactured.

To book hotel in Belize for Great Blue Hole dives, travelers grab reef-view balconies mixing dawn snorkels with sunset rum punch.

Reviews of Belizean Shores Resort

• Roisin from United Kingdom (10/10)

  Incredible experience from the point of booking even to checking out. I loved the communication via whatsapp, staff were on hand 24/7 for anything we needed and were so responsive. The rooms were beautifully kept and cleaned and gorgeous views from the resort. Much quieter than the sister resort next door.

• Yahel from Israel (8/10)

• Isaias from United States (10/10)

  Close proximity to the beach but away from the city center

• Kiersten from United States (10/10)

  The Staff were amazing! Always quick to help and assist us. The swim up bar was so fun to hang out in during the evenings and the bar tender was hilarious and made amazing drinks. The room was more of a condo which was lovely. Very clean, extra towels, pillows etc.. Loved that they supplied us with a water container so we didn't have to purchase our own bottled water.

• Amber from United States (10/10)

  Beautiful and relaxing! Great service! Security 24/7! An awesome place to enjoy Belize and to take in the views. We had a room right near the pool (which was amazing) just a short walk to the ocean. We will be going back for sure! We made sure to have our transportation set before we arrived which was very helpful, taxi to get to the water taxi from the airport, water taxi to San Pedro, golf cart ready when we arrived in San Pedro. You will need one if you want to get around the island and explore the secret beach!

• Victoria from United States (8/10)

  The view of the beach was very nice. The room was great and there was plenty of space for the 4 of us. Two teens and my self and my husband two bedrooms and a pull out sofa bed. so everyone had their choice. it was a duplex setting. it had a full-size kitchen with all the amenities. Staff could not have been better.

• Rajeev from United States (10/10)

  All around great place for families that need more space. The onsite snorkeling vendor was great too. Good location far from San Pedro if you like privacy.

• Tamara from United States (10/10)
