Love3Love3Love3

Loved that we were away from the hustle n bustle..the unit was on the edge of the often wonky wi-fi, but so what-we were there to "unplug" loved the staff, made so many new friends. When I read some of the comments of others, I was grateful for the comforts and also the "wildness" of Sapphire Beach. Tankless hot water, the nearby mercados with fruit, the help of the staff when I couldn't get the coffeemaker to work..I wished I could be blessed to live here year round..can't wait to return...

Comforts of home with ease of a resort

We loved this location, further from crowds but enough restaurants and things to do to keep us busy and entertained. When we booked we didn’t realize that this rental also comes with daily cleaning and some of the best resort staff you’ll find. Was perfect for spending the day on their beach, using their kayaks and enjoying both the tiki bar and restaurant. Surrounding restaurants were great too! My boys ages 8 and 13 had a great time!

They deserve 6 stars, or maybe 8!

From the moment we booked until the moment we departed, Sapphire took care of our every need. From things as small as parking our golf cart for us to booking a last minute tour to delivering supplies to our room and arranging for massages on our balcony to delivering our food and drinks to the beach, they went above and beyond. I just tried to think of something we didn’t like and I cannot think of a single thing we did not love. I’d live here if I could. What’s the monthly rate? Shout out to Marcos and Lisandro who really put in the extra effort. Don’t sleep on the restaurant and tiki bar - great food and drink. Diving with White Sands dive shop and touring with Maya Viv were really the icing on the cake. Get a massage, do some snorkeling, go see a ruin and just enjoy. Sapphire is where you want to be.

Great unit, so-so location

The unit and condo complex was great, the staff were superb, and the area within the complex safe, clean, and well taken care of. The location, however, proved to be very challenging. Road conditions were very poor, making it extremely hard to get into town and much longer than the 45 min advertised. It was more like 1.5 hours of hard driving with large construction trucks barreling down on us. We ended up staying close to the resort, which meant we were dependent on limited and pricey food options. The times we went snorkeling we just paid for a dive shop to come pick us up by boat. This place is suited best if you want to be very far from it all, and don’t mind shelling out US prices for meals.

Gem of a Property on Ambergris Caye

This is a wonderful resort north of San Pedro and Ambergris Caye. It's well maintained, and the staff were truly amazing! Our room was a tad smaller than we realized but it worked great and coming during the normal off-season we pretty much had the place to ourselves, including the use of the (2) regular pools. You can easily rent a golf-cart from here to cruise to such spots as Secret Beach or the Truck Stop. It was a great location for a fun family vacation and thanks again for offering it up!

Brief stay

Check-in was swift and staff were communicative throughout to ensure a stress free Check-in. Unit floors were a bit dirty. A part of the back patio rails were chirped. Nevertheless, the staff here were phenomenal, well knowledgeable about the area for things to do. Always ready to help and provide support when needed, thanks to Eiden Campos and lisandro Yascal for your great tips around the island. The resort is kinda remote and bushy, so the mosquitoes here are aggressive, so bring a lot of repellant.

Great location and experience

My recent experience at Jason's Sapphire Beach Resort property was truly exceptional. Both the host and management were outstanding. Jason maintained communication with us throughout our stay, ensuring a seamless experience. Upon arrival, Rose and Monica warmly welcomed us with hospitality, assisting us with settling in and ensuring we had everything we needed, including arranging reservations for our excursions. It was undoubtedly one of the best and most memorable vacations. We will definitely come back again. Thank you.

Quiet and relaxing

The condo is perfect for 2 people, everything you need for making your own meals although the restaurants were awesome. We stayed a month which was enough time to explore the island and have plenty of time to fish and relax. Jason is a great host and keeps you informed prior to arrival. The staff at Sapphire are very friendly and very attentive. Only thing that could be improved is the wifi is slow due to the remoteness of the resort. Overall great stay.

Quiet and serene

Perfect for 2 older scuba divers looking for some peace and quiet from the party town filled with 100s of golf carts. White sands dive shops picks customers up at the Sapphire dock at 8 am each morning for no additional cost And provided a great diving experience. Resort has 3 separate pools, adults only and one for the kids. Edwin at the Tiki Bar was always smiles. Second floor unit has nice breezes in the evenings and was perfect for sunset dinners on the deck. Kitchen fully stocked with everything you would need to cook any kind of dinner. Queen bed was very firm but better than being too soft. All in all, it was a great for the week.

Escape from large resorts to more intimate setting.

Far north where it’s less developed. Beautifully kept grounds with considerate and kind staff. Golf cart is must as travel into San Pedro is half hour on bumpy adventurous roadway. Fishing off shore was productive even for an amateur angler. Easily meet people from all over at tiki hut BBQ events sometimes with live music. Will come back!

Great vacation, beautiful resort, friendly people

We stayed here a week and thoroughly enjoyed ourselves. The resort had everything we needed. The bar and restaurant was a fun place to meet other travelers and the employees are friendly and informative. The road from San Pedro is long and a bit treacherous so we stayed at or near the resort most of the vacation. Definitely recommend El Norte bar up the beach. We did 2excursions with no worries tours (right on the property) which were excellent. Overall, a great vacation!

Quiet Casita on the Shores Escape

We spent 7 nights at Sapphire Beach Resort. The resort is about 30 minutes from Secret beach and about 45 minutes from town on a golf cart. Renting a golf cart is a must if you want to get around. If you are looking for a quiet location to sleep, then this is the perfect location. It is mosquito season in Belize, so I would recommend bringing lots of bug spray. The condo was very clean and fully stocked to cook a full meal. The condo has an a/c unit in the bedroom and living room. The bedroom was cozy with a comfortable bed. The host Jason communicated with us throughout making sure all our needs were met. The service was amazing! Lisandro and Aidan at the front desk (hopefully I spelled the names correctly), provided excellent customer service. They had great suggestions on where to go and eat daily. They set up all of our air/taxi transportation to and from the resort which was greatly helpful. This cozy condo felt like a home away from home. I would recommend Casita on the shores at Sapphire Beach Resort.

Peaceful elegance

The living space reflects a responsive owner who wants the best for his guests - quality furnishings, a well-equipped kitchen, refreshing and strong a/c. On-site restaurant is excellent and relatively reasonable. This is not a cruise ship - the experience is private and peaceful. Be sure to shop in San Pedro (Super Buy) for food, especially snacks.

About the host

Hosted by Owner

Host profile image
We love to travel and fell in love with Belize. The country and it's people.

We always try our best to make someone's vacation as perfect as possible, just like we would like for us when we travel.

Why they chose this property

We fell is love with Belize. The history, the Mayan ruins, the people and the countryside and animals.

Belize is English speaking. Takes U.S dollars of Belize Dollars for everything. The country is stable. It is opening more up to tourists but still not taken over by western culture and hotels.

Most of the accommodation is smaller owner owned resorts.

Our resort was one of the only areas we found that had a private beach. The north part of the island is less developed. Further south there are more rocks and man made elevated beach areas. The world's second longest reef lays just off shore from the resort.

The resort is a good distance from town. You need to take the boat into San Pedro a water taxi runs regularly up and down the coast. Or you can rent a golf cart to get around or ride bikes. The road can get bumpy especially after rain.

Some people say it is far to get to the resort but it is a beautiful ride if you take the boat across turquoise Caribbean ocean, on one side tropical fauna and small resorts and on the other the amazing water of the Caribbean and the world's second longest reef. If you rent a golf cart or get a taxi it is an adventure drive through small resorts and local terrain. Please ask about road conditions if renting a golf cart. There are no lights on the road at night.

You can enjoy prepared food from the resorts small restaurant for breakfast, lunch and dinner. Have it in the restaurant, at the bar in your unit or even on the beach. Or you can have the resort or go yourself into town and purchase supplies and cook in the unit. Make your own cocktails with the units blender.

What makes this property unique

Please contact me for any information you may need on our unit, the resort, Ambergris Caye and Belize. Any travel information etc, I will answer as much as I can.

I want your stay to be everything you wish for.

Long term discounts available. Please contact me.

Free use of bikes, kayaks, paddle boards, snorkeling and fishing gears for guests.

The Resort will take over the booking once you have booked. They are excellent at preparing you for your visit and making sure your stay is great.
