Ok, its been a few years, but we may return to Belize so we're catching up on the review. Very dingy, small, and run-down. Dirt road and marsh-like area behind resort (if you can call it that) was strewn with garbage and I believe had a few crocs. So gross, in fact, we left the 2nd night hence forfeiting 4... more

The Captain Morgan is a nice upscale resort in Belize. I can't say anything negative about the facilities. The customer service was lacking though. Management seemed much more interested in selling time shares than helping one time guests. The event office didn't seem to care if you got what you were looking for. For an oversized American, the thing that... more

Captain Morgan is vastly overated and overpriced. Do not look at the pictures. There is not a decent beach on site. The hotel is located 3.5 miles from San Pedro and boat transportation has to be arranged every time you want to escape the hotel restaurant (which should be escaped). $56 for a family of 4, for a return trip... more

My husband and I just returned from 10 days in Ambergris Caye. Upon arriving at our resort (at which we had pre-paid for a suite for the entire stay) we were a bit let down - it okay, but more like a motel than a resort. However, it did have beautiful views and a kind staff. After a couple of... more

This place is suitable for a family who don't mind a concrete beach, 'Italian Pasta Night', instant coffee at the restaurant, lumpy beds, creaky beds, disinterested staff and paying USD10 for doing your own laundry. Avoid the cassitas at all costs - unless you enjoy waking up with a mouthful of twigs. The words 'romantic', 'luxury' , 'couple's getaway' in... more

We went at the end of February. We loved the resort. Everyone was really nice. We had a 2 bedroom unit with a kitchen and 2 balconies. It ended up being only 2 of us so we had alot of room. It was clean and decorated really nice. The activities staff was great. We went fishing with Enrique and he... more

Jerry Jeff Walker wrote that being in Belize is like "living a dream down here" and Captain Morgan's is the dream place! Awesome staff....volleyball at lunch time....kayak to the reef and snorkle in the afternoon.... Going to town for dinner and shopping by taking a 5 minute boat ride is a lot "cooler" than taking a dirty cab, although there's... more

I stayed here with my wife and her family for a week and besides the food and the reef (something the hotel has nothing to do with) it was a pretty horrible experience. Our room was a mess, broken air conditioning, bordering construction on two sides. There was a lack of any caring or help from the hotel to any... more

My husband and I spent our honeymoon here and we are so very glad we did. Everything about our trip was excellent. The location is absolutely beautiful! The villas were incredible: very clean, well kept daily by staff, and relaxing! The food was good, and the property staff was very, very friendly. What a way to spend a honeymoon! I... more

We just returned from Captain Morgan's. I am so glad we didn't let the negative reviews deter us. If you are expecting the Hilton, then stay at a Hilton. This resort was absolutely perfect for the type of vacation we look forward to. Directly on the beach, 1/2 mile to the reef, two pools, attentive and friendly staff, clean rooms,... more
