The Maya Beach Hotel sits on a soft sand beach right in the middle of the Placencia Peninsula on the Caribbean Sea, just off the dusty red clay road that extends the length of the peninsula. From your hammock you can feast your eyes on some of the most brilliant colors in nature. From your table at the Bistro, you can feast on the meals cooked by our popular kitchen. Unless you're too content to move out of your hammock, we'll encourage you to choose some tours by wonderful local tour operators who can show you the natural secrets of Belize. more » « less

Belize is such a beautiful country and the Maya Beach Hotel is the perfect way to experience it. The owners, Ellen and John Lee, can schedule an adventure every day or can make a relaxing week on the beach perfect. You can walk out of your room onto the dock and step into a boat for a day of snorkeling,... more

We spent the last week in Nov. at the Maya Beach Hotel, staying in the Dreamsicle Beach House, top level. I highly recommend this resort for a few reasons, great accommodations and food, beautiful beach, and friendly staff and owners. We took advantage of the kayaks that are available for guests and my husband borrowed one of the bikes and... more

Accommodations clean and well-lit, bed firm, . Breeze off the ocean. We had second floor suite with balcony view or ocean, hot plate (which we didn’t use), fridge, microwave, coffee maker, and daily maid service. Excellent, memorable and reasonably priced food in restaurant. Hotel will arrange for any tours you might need (and gets the best prices for you—we checked);... more

We didn't stay here, but wish we had. After a terrible mishap where we were staying I was left on my 30th birthday with no Birthday cake or dessert and no special meal. The food where we were was utterly gross and I was NOT going to eat there for one more night. My boyfriend and I had walked the... more

The Maya Beach Hotel is truly the place the stay if you are looking for a quiet, cozy getaway, my partner and I flew in from Belize City International Airport via Tropic Air to Placencia, Belize and was greeted by 'Oscar' at the airport who transported us a quick 10 minute ride down the road to the Maya Beach Hotel.... more

I'm sure I'll be reitterating a lot of what has already been said but here it goes: My girlfriend and I just got back from an 8-day vacation to Belize, of which the last 4 nights we spent at the MBH. We flew from Caye Caulker to Placencia (via Belize City Municipal) and were picked up from the airport by... more

My husband, 18 year old son, 16 year old daughter, and I just returned from an eleven day trip to MBH. We found MBH through Yahoo travel. We had tickets we had to use and looked for somewhere Continental flew so to Belize City we went. From there we boarded Tropic Air (handled by MBH) and headed to Placencia. A... more

My husband and I decided to stay at MBH based on reviews we read on this site. Our expectations were exceeded in every way. We decided to fly into Placencia, which is a great way to first experience the beauty of Belize, and were greeted at the airport by John, the owner. By the time we reached the hotel we... more

My wife and I just returned from a wonderful 5 night stay at the Maya Beach Hotel. Our adventure began when we flew out of Belize City down to Placencia. The flight is about 30 minutes on the smallest airplane you'll ever be on. It was a very smooth ride, but a little cramped. When we arrived in Placencia John... more
