We had the most amazing experience at Calico Jacks inn February 2008. We have two boys 11 & 8, who cannot stop talking about the trip, the hotel, the food, and the small staff who felt like family by the end of our week. CJ's is small, maybe 10 cabanas? It was so quiet, there were other guests during our... more

The hotel is very far from town- about a 25-30 US dollar cab ride over a bumpy street. The hotel would like to get you for all services: food, tours, cabs, etc. The food was average and on the pricey side. The hotel rooms were nice looking, but poorly made. The ceiling is made of palm leaves and would fall... more

we stayed there for three days and feel quite dissapointed with the service and a little bit with the place itself. We were a big family of ten people, staying in two rooms. At first, it was very difficult to complete the booking, requiring too several mails and sorting out too many misunderstandings. As we were a big family, we... more

We just returned from Calico Jack's and had a great experience at the resort and in Belize. We are well traveled and found Calico Jack's to be an excellent value. We were surprised to read the negative review posted by guests that say they were there around the time of our visit because we had such fun and so did... more

We chose Calico Jack's Village, in Maya Beach, based on reviews that we found here, and we were not disappointed. We have been traveling in Belize, since 1998, and there have been so many changes in Placencia Village, that we wanted to stay in a more remote location in an attempt to recapture the laid-back lifestyle we have enjoyed in... more

lIf you prefer hearing the noise of a construction site, this is the place for you. Right on the edge of the resort they are building a mega hotel and complex. Literally, at the most 2 feet from the cabins. Instead of hearing the sea and birds, we heard the beep beep of a tracker backing up and various other... more

This review is long overdue but better late than never. My husband and I stayed at Calico Jack's in May 2004. We wanted to get married in a tropical place but we were on a budget. Calico Jacks was everything we ever dreamed of. We are the couple on their web page that are dressed in black. We went on... more

My husband I just returned from our honeymoon at Calico's. We spent 7 glorious days there. Since technically it's the rainy season we were the only people staying at CJ's so we had a fantastic time getting to know the staff and our surroundings. It was easy to catch the bus or a taxi into Placencia for dinner or a... more

My family and I had a wonderful time at Calico Jack's. The grounds are full of flowers, I especially liked the one that looks like a Purple Peacock Feather. My son in law Pancho enjoyed fishing off the Tiki pier, he caught some fish. It was so relaxing to sit outdoors to dine and listen to some island music. The... more

My husband and I just got back from CJV's a few days ago and we are already trying to plan our next trip. We stayed at the resort for 7 days for our honeymoon/wedding. First of all the staff was EXCELLENT. The service at the restaurant was speechless, our server/bartender was the most genuine person you would ever meet in... more
