Best Western Grand Baymen Gardens Overview

First Impressions

Walking into Best Western Grand Baymen Gardens on Hurricane Street, you immediately get that “this is going to work out just fine” feeling. It’s not trying to be something it isn’t — this three-star property knows exactly what it’s about, and honestly, that’s refreshing in San Pedro. The lobby has a clean, welcoming vibe without any pretense, and the staff actually seems happy to see you arrive. The property showcases authentic Caribbean charm with modern amenities that enhance your stay experience.

The Room Experience

The room I stayed in was exactly what you’d hope for after a day exploring Belize — comfortable, air-conditioned, and mercifully quiet despite being right in town. The beds are solid (no creaky springs keeping you awake), and there’s enough space to spread out your gear without feeling cramped. You know what I appreciated most? The bathroom actually had decent water pressure, which isn’t always a given in this part of the world. The furnishings are modern and well-maintained, creating a pleasant retreat after outdoor adventures. Each accommodation features thoughtful touches that make your stay memorable.

Location & Getting Around

Hurricane Street puts you right in the heart of things without the chaos of the main tourist strip. You can walk to most of the good restaurant spots in town, and the water taxi dock is close enough that you’re not dragging luggage for blocks. The free parking is actually a bigger deal than it sounds — finding a safe spot for your rental car in San Pedro can be a real headache elsewhere. The central location makes exploring the island incredibly convenient and accessible for all types of travelers.

Morning Routine

The continental breakfast gets the job done, especially if you’re planning to head out early for diving or island hopping. They’ve got the grab-and-go option figured out too, which saved me more than once when I had early morning tours. It’s not fancy, but there’s something to be said for starting your day with decent coffee and not having to hunt around town for food before your first adventure. Fresh tropical fruits and pastries are available daily, providing energy for your Belizean adventures.

Why Guests Love It

Here’s the thing about this place — it just works perfectly for discerning travelers. Couples seem to really get it (I noticed quite a few during my stay), probably because it strikes that sweet spot between being comfortable and not breaking the bank. You’re paying for a solid base to explore from, not for marble bathrooms or infinity pools. The staff knows the area well and can point you toward the good local spots, which honestly matters more than thread count when you’re in Belize. It’s the kind of place where you sleep well, start your day right, and don’t spend your vacation budget on the hotel room. Guests consistently praise the friendly service and authentic Caribbean atmosphere that defines this exceptional property.

Hotel in Belize reservations spike before whale shark season when dive boats fill Placencia marinas.

  Great location, but proximity to airport means you are right near runway. But few very early or late flights – approx 0700 – 2000
  Good office staff, but operating under duress.
  Helper staff helped lug suitcases up 4 floors due to broken elevator.
