Cocotal Inn and Cabanas

My wife and I spent a whole week here, and everyone was helpful and accommodating. The bed was amazing, really comfy, and kept us cool. The full kitchen meant we could save money by making our own food, and the air conditioning was nice and cool too. If you run into Jeff, make sure you greet him and give him a pet. He’s a sweetheart, and treats in the morning will win him over.

The ocean and reef views were beautiful, and the dock was a great spot to fish or unwind in the hammocks. We stayed in the first cabana and found the property clean, with wonderful staff who were happy to help. We’ve been to Belize five times before, and the people here made this place especially worth visiting. There was some morning noise from the neighboring land, but it wasn’t anything too bad. The restaurant right next door served good food.

We liked having a clean, comfortable cabana right on the water, with a kitchen and fridge that let us make a few meals and save leftovers for lunch. The pool was a welcome way to cool off after biking around the island, and the free bikes and kayaks were handy. I took a kayak out to the reef to snorkel once, but didn’t find much there, so I didn’t go again. It’s a quiet, cute place about two miles north of town, with friendly, helpful staff and some restaurants nearby. I just wish there were a restaurant on site.

Ben was so welcoming, and we loved spotting birds and butterflies from our window, along with the occasional hello from his dog, Jeff. Our little garden cabana had everything we needed, including a full kitchen and fridge, and it was very clean. The dishes were always washed and drying when we got back from being out. It felt peaceful by the water, while still being only about a 10-minute golf cart ride from town. We didn’t get around to using the free kayaks or bikes. Be sure to stop at the nearby Truck stop for good food and live music. We’d happily come back soon. 10/10!
