This is my idea of the perfect vacation. Peaceful location, friendly people, not crowded, no "clock" to manage your time--just pure bliss. The rooms are artfully decorated and each have a view of the sea. You wake up to the sounds of seagulls and the lapping of the waves on the shore. I could have just stayed on the porch... More

Like many we took a chance with the Living Social special and were glad we did. Flew thru a squall in a 12 passenger Maya Air puddle jumper down to Placencia and had to belly up at the Barefoot Bar for a couple hours to wait for the storm to pass. Were told we had to wait until the storm... More

Great place with very good facilities. Rooms are very comfortable, friendly staff, incredible snorkeling. One thing to improve is food. Portions are too small (some of us had to ask for a second dish more than once) and when there is a large group, food takes too long to be on the table. If you like to relax this is... More

What an amazing getaway my husband and I had for our 2 year wedding anniversary. It was a bit of a haul getting there (3 planes, and a 45 minute boat ride) but well worth the trip. Wish we had known about this place for our honeymoon. Pros: Privacy - it really felt like we had our own mini island.... More

First things first, we loved it so much we have already scheduled to go back! If we could have stayed here all 7 nights of our honeymoon we would have, but wanted to see a few other things. However, once we left we longed to be back. =) I don't think there is to much that I can add that... More

What a special place!!! If you are looking for a place to escape pressures on your life Hatchet Caye may be exactly what you are looking for. We were there in April and the resort was just plain wonderful and as good or better than expectations. This is a small private island with just a few cabanas that leaves you... More

Pros - amazing location, excellent new facilities, great staff, incredible snorkeling, as much activity or peace & quiet as you like Cons - no one presented themselves as manager or "in charge" during our entire stay. on arrival day, we were anticipating 9am pickup based on previous email, but pickup didn't occur till 5pm later that day. no one said...

Like many others, we found Hatchet Caye through a living social deal. The island is beautiful and is probably the most peaceful tropical vacation spot I have ever experienced. You will seriously feel like you are on a Corona commercial. The island is full of strategically located hammocks and lounge chairs that overlook the incredible crystal clear water. Each cabana...

This resort is one of the most amazing places on earth.... and we are very picky guests. We are from Washington, DC and utilized the Living Social deal to stay for 4 nights and 5 days. I am in finance in my early 30's and my significant other is in corporate relations. We were looking for a respite providing full-service... More
