Tropical Paradise Awaits You at Grand Caribe Resort in Belize

Accessibility to town can be arranged by golf cart (available to rent by the hour, day or your entire stay at the resort), bicycles (available for rent) or taxi. The resort itself is situated in a horseshoe layout directly non the beach with several amazing pools for guests to enjoy. The main pool's has a swim up bar that is perfect place to watch the sailboats drift by with a Belikin beer, glass of wine or a tropical drink. Adventuresome? Grab a kayak or paddle board and explore the reef with snorkel gear which is available at the resort's beach cabana. Or maybe you are in the mood to grab a hammock and quietly relax. It is all here at Grand Caribe!

Unit B5 is 1563 square feet with a large balcony boasting an incredible view of the reef. The condo is beautifully appointed with two spacious bedrooms. The master bedroom overlooks the reef and the main pools and hot tubs. Each bedroom has a large adjoining bathroom.

A gourmet’s kitchen is available should you decide to cook your own meals. All the appliances are full size and cookware, utensils, glassware, etc are readily available. In addition to the dining room, there is a granite countertop breakfast bar to enjoy

If you would prefer to eat out, enjoy a cocktail poolside then head to the community building to enjoy a delicious dinner or lunch at one of two top restaurants on the island. Or grab a pizza and hang out on your veranda or by the pool.

.Feel like venturing out to eat? There is so many establishments, that it is impossible to pick one. Several restaurants are within walking distance of the resort so bring a flashlight (and some bug spray) if you intend to walk to enjoy your evening

If you decide to stay-in there is a spacious family room with a new L shaped couch and loveseat to gather friends and families around. This leads out to the veranda where there is another sitting area for you to enjoy.

Great stay at Grand Caribe!

We stayed at the Grand Caribe, in Diane's unit, for 4 nights in late March.Great location: This resort is a little north of town, so quieter than San Pedro town but not too far away. We found it very easy to get into town via golf cart.Diane's unit is VERY spacious and well-equipped. Great ocean view from the balcony and master bedroom. Very clean. Housekeeping comes every day, and we also appreciated the free laundry service offered by the resort (there is actually a locked laundry room in the unit that the housekeeping staff have access to and uses; again, very convenient!).For the resort: The on-site concierge at the resort was very helpful to have--we used them to help us book a last minute fishing trip and to make dinner reservations. I'd definitely recommend a golf cart if you stay here and want to explore the island.Coming in to this, we knew that there were not really swimmable beaches on Amergris Caye (besides Secret Beach), and while Grand Caribe was recommended as a resort that was more swimmable than others, the section at the resort you could walk into and swim was pretty small. This did not affect our trip whatsoever as we spent a fair amount of time on really fantastic snorkeling and fishing trips and at Secret Beach.

Absolutely fabulous!

We came for a couples anniversary trip for the first time to Belize and we couldn’t have been happier with our stay!!! Mrs Dianne answered all of my ridiculous questions and the grand caribe resort was also super helpful! They made everything go as smoothly as possible! Upon arrival they had happy anniversary on each bed which was super sweet and we were not expecting that lol. We loved everything about the location of the Grand Caribe on the island. It was perfect! Also we loved where we were located at the resort. It was easy access to all the amenities. We had the best time and are looking to returning next year! Thank y’all for having us!!

We booked this condo for one night because we decided to stay an extra night in San Pedro and our original condo wasn’t available. The condo was very nice, check in was seamless and perfect for our family of four. The Grande Caribe resort is a wonderful property! Thanks for sharing this wonderful condo!

Great location, very friendly staff and easy communication!

We loved our stay at Grand Caribe. The condo was very comfortable and the resort staff was quick to help with any requests. The resort has a nice shop on location for simple foods, drinks, sunscreen etc. We opted to have breakfast in our condo daily but did venture out for meals in the area for lunch and dinner. Everything was so clean! The laundry service was a huge plus with the housekeeping service being a daily option. We did kayak to the reef from the resort and snorkeled many days...we saw many fish and even a few nurse sharks hidden in the reef. Thanks for a great stay! I would definitely recommend this place to family and friends.

We Loved Grand Caribe!

We had an amazing week at Grand Caribe. The property itself is super clean and the staff work tirelessly to keep it that way. The restaurants are fabulous, and the beach is beautiful. All the beach and pool chairs were in great shape and we had no issue finding a chair throughout the day. We loved the free use of the kayaks and paddle boards as well. The unit itself is wonderful. Although the pictures don’t really show a lot of sunlight, there is plenty that comes in making you feel more connected to the outdoors. This unit also has the best view of the pool and beach! It’s super clean and has everything you need to live comfortably. The unit comfortably accommodated our family of five. The second bedroom for the kids had a queen bed and an additional single bed was brought in to accommodate our three boys (ages 15, 15, and 18). There was lots of space, and although we weren’t inside much, we did eat breakfast and lunch in our unit every day. We bought groceries from both the local grocery store ‘Beach Basket’ and some things we got in San Pedro. We found the prices were the same, but in San Pedro there was more selection. Fruit and veggies must be bought from the local markets in town as well. Fruit/veggie stands are everywhere on Tuesdays. Diane the owner was great! She was quick to respond, very knowledgeable about the island, and accommodating. We went to some amazing restaurants for dinner. The restaurants on the property are really good, but expensive. Stella’s is a short walk from the resort and we loved it. They are wonderful owners and the food is reasonably priced and incredible. They will also cook your catch. We went fishing and caught several snapper and grouper and they made us a wonderful meal with it for about $20Bz/person. Another great restaurant is Mamba’s. They will pick you up/drop you off by boat for free. It’s a small boutique style hotel and restaurant but the food is spectacular. One thing to know is that every restaurant is slow. This wasn’t an issue for us because we were on vacation and we quite enjoyed the slower pace of life on the island. Lastly, Hol Chan for snorkeling was the best! Diane thank you for opening your home to us. We loved it and can’t wait to come back!

Beautiful well cared for resort

We had a very relaxing stay with our son and the unit was perfect for us with two en-suites and a lovely deck and view. Our son was diving and we were snorkelling so it was great that the trips picked us up from our wharf . The diving was great and the water very clear. We self catered most of the time as eating out was expensive. The kitchen was well equipped for this The resort was very quiet so we often had the lovely pools to ourselves which we enjoyed.

Incredible resort - awesome family vacation

Our family of 5 (kids 13, 10, 10) had a wonderful experience at Grand Caribe. The condo unit was spacious and well equipped with a nice view overlooking the pools and ocean. Daily service was excellent. Staff was very nice. Amenities at GC were excellent. We only booked one activity through Grand Caribe; the others we used Creative Tours Belize for two excellent private boat tours - highly recommend. We have stayed at many VRBO locations in the Carribean and Hawaii - Grand Caribe ranks right at the top. We will definitely return.

Excellent Condo and Overall Resort for a Family with Teens

My wife , two late teen boys and I stayed at this property and really appreciated the layout, large deck, ocean and pool views and cleanliness. Starting with the Grande Caribe resort, the service, food and overall property was excellent. We also appreciated a condo-style resort which had wonderful amenities (including a good gym and convenience market), but not the noise of hotels which sometimes have people organizing games, etc. The concierge was also helpful in booking snorkeling trips that pickup right off the dock of the hotel. The condo itself was gorgeous, extremely clean and well appointed. It was also quiet. Another feature we didn't fully realize until we were there is that there is daily laundry service for clothes (that are washed in a r}oom adjacent to this specific condo, so you don't have to worry about them getting lost. The only negative thing I would say about the place (which I believe applies for most of this part of Ambergris Caye), is that the beaches are somewhat narrow, and the swimming is limited (small swimming area with some sharp rocks). That being said, there are excellent pools (six of them) and there was plenty of room to lay in chairs on the beach. I highly recommend this property for others!

Paradise! Beautiful inside and out!

The view from this condo was breathtaking! My favorite part of the day was having coffee on the balcony and seeing the ocean and the trees surrounded by the beautiful pools and landscaping. The staff were all very friendly and helpful. This was one of the best vacations we have been on, and I can’t wait to go back! There is so much to do on the island, and the food was delicious. The resort is located perfectly between town and a “secret beach”. The resorts private beach and pools are a great way to relax. Our condo was equipped with everything we needed to stay in and cook if we wanted. Beautifully decorated and very comfortable! The staff are very helpful and polite and facility mechanicals are well kept.

Great Place and Great Location!

I cannot wait to go back down to this place again. My only regret is not being able to spend more time there. The living accommodations, staff, and available amenities are five star worthy. I have been to Belize two times before and this condo was by far better than other places I have stayed. The condo comes equipped with with everything you may need and then more! It was very clean and customer service was excellent. The location is great with plenty to do right around the resort (kayaking, paddle boarding, Rain restaurant, bars, etc.) and it is very easy to go into downtown San Pedro. I highly recommend this place to all people!

Hi! J and Diane are retirees from Pennsylvania. We looked at a number of other locations both within Belize and the Caribbean. But the beauty of Ambergris Caye and the friendliness of the people led us to Grand Caribe.
Visit our website for more information

Why they chose this property

We love snorkeling, fishing and other outdoor activities. With the amazing barrier reef right outside our condo the decision to purchase at Grand Caribe was easy!!

What makes this property unique

Our guests have the option of doing as much or as little as they want. The town of San Pedro is only a short distance away where you can dance away the night, or you can have a snack and a drink Grand Caribe's swim up bar, or relax at your private spacious balcony overlooking the Caribbean.

Rain, an elegant roof top restaurant located on the Resort grounds is second to no other restaurant on the island. It boasts an amazing menu and sunset views that will take your breath away!

Unique to this resort is a brand new Urgent Care Center located on the property. I do not know of ANY other resort in Central or South America that offers this attention to detail.

No other resort on Ambergris Caye can boast those amenities!!
