Hotel's Favorite
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at White Horse.
The grounds were immaculate - swept and raked which gave it a neat and tidy appearance. We had access to floaties and beach toys - we spent hours on the floaties riding the gentle waves. There were several beach chairs on the beach and recliners where we brought our coffee and watched the sun rise, read books and hung out. I loved the outdoor shower to rinse off in after going in the sea and there was a line in the back to hang wet bathing suits.
The room was immaculately clean, had lots of shelves to put luggage on and had a nice little coffee maker and mini fridge.
Clean water was available in the outdoor lobby. We also sat here to chat with other travellers.
Angel, the manager, was so friendly and helped us with restaurant recommendations and answered any questions we had. The owners were also incredible helpful prior to our arrival, answering any questions we had.
Lots of restaurants close by.
Definitely recommend!

I arrived at the White Horse Inn to finish off the last three days of my one week vacation to Hopkins, Belize and I have to say it really made my the three days the best of my vacation. Angel, the manager obviously cares a lot about his job and making sure the property is represented in a very professional manner. His attention to details is what really makes this fellow stand out. Between him and the housekeeper Ms. Mae they really make guests feel welcome and keep the property and rooms looking impeccable. They were both very kind and generous with their service and advice about the area. When I go back to Belize I will certainly make another reservation at this beautiful Inn that is only a few steps from the sea. Many thanks to Angel and Ms. Mae!

Great location on the beach and next to a “supermarket” (Belize style!). Beach is just perfect with chairs and clean sand. Swimming is delightful with a nice sandy bottom to the ocean floor. And the entire beach is great to walk.
Friendly staff - Angel was very helpful in getting us a snorkel trip for a good price. And it was a great excursion - just the two of us and a very knowledgeable guide.
The room we had was small but we managed. There were shelves and some hangers in a cubby. We did not need the A/C (which was extra per night if we had used it). There was a standing fan which worked well. The nights seemed to have a breeze which made them cool enough for just the fan.
No hair dryer and we had to ask for soap and shampoo - so if you stay here and need these essentials, bring your own. We did not have a room with a kitchen, but there are so many wonderful local places to eat we would not have used it even if we had it. We did use the fridge and the microwave tho.
We would definitely stay here again, and some of the folks staying there were back for a repeat vacation.

Thank you for the great review. We would love to have you come again! I do have a hair dryer, iron, cutting board, knife, plates and such but you have to ask for it. Sorry so much to tell you when you first arrive we forget to mention this. The smaller Units have kitchenette, Unit 3 and the Bungalows have full kitchens. Every room is a little different and a different price. I hope this helps you for your next stay with us, incase you do desire a full kitchen. You are right about the food here so many good places to eat and the prices are great, why cook on vacation! We are so glad you took the time to see the reef, and. we are so thankful you stayed with us. We loved having you! Hope to see you again from all of us at White Horse!

I stayed at Inn@whitehorse for a week in June & I should say I was extremely please with my stay there. First of all, the rooms are well maintained, very clean, up to date & comfortable. Also, this guest house is at a perfect location, right in front of the ocean, it is also located about 1 minute walk to a supermarket open everyday until 8pm, a chinese restaurant open until 11 at night, a pharmacy & there are a lot of different restaurant choices at walking distance. This property is owned by 2 foreigners but taken care of by local staff & I should say they are doing a perfect job! Thanks to Angel for his customer service that goes above and beyond & to Mae for her cleaning & laundry service which is reliable, fast and very reasonable in price! There are also 2 other staffs which were helping out with cleaning the beach & changing towels and water when needed which were both professionnal & very helpful. I would recommend to everyone who does want a great vacation, safe environment, great rooms but most importantly amazing staff to feel the great vibe of Belize. Thank you again for an incredible stay! I will definitely be back.

Our time at the White Horse Guest House was picture perfect! The property is meticulously cared for by the manager, Angel, who is truly an angel. His friendly disposition and helpful nature made our stay so relaxing. Our lovely room, the gardens, porch, and beautiful beach area are immaculate. We loved lounging in the sunshine, playing corn hole, swinging in the hammock and just chilling in this little oasis. Miss Maye made sure we had fresh towels! The town of Hopkins is wonderful! We rented bicycles to explore this gorgeous area and dined at so many great restaurants right on the ocean! Thank you White Horse Guest House for giving us happy memories of our time in Belize! We will return!

The inn has four ground floor rooms, a room on the upper floor and two cabins on the beach front. Our ground floor room had an oblique view of the beach, the palms and the ocean. There was a good TV and WiFi most of the time.
There is free drinking water usually available in the inn's porch.
Rooms do have AC available but only with an extra charge. We did not find we needed it as we kept the windows open and got a breeze off the ocean.
The shower water was never hot, it only ever got just warm. We were told that removing the shower head and then running the shower for 15 minutes might cure the problem but it didn't.
While the ground floor rooms have no dedicated outside pace, the inn does have a small porch at the entry where there are a few chairs - amusingly, each chair is labelled with a room number! There are also a couple of chairs on the concrete walk way behind the cabins, again allocated to room numbers, but these chairs only have a view of the back of the cabins.
On one evening and throughout Saturday, the hotel was taken over by a large group Belizeans from out of town; I believe these were friends of the manager. They took over all the beach chairs and sunbeds, the inn's kayak, the beach in front of the hotel and the porch area. This made life uncomfortable for all the guests and seemed unreasonable.

Alistair thank you for your review. All our sites mention the fee for AC (I know of no place that does not charge it except the large $200 a night resorts.) Electric is high here and we charge less then any small establishments in our area. We have three sitting areas: one on the patio so guests can mingle in the shade, one by the little garden for a more private sit and lots of chairs on the beach front. We have extra chairs and floats and games for our guests too. All the chairs have numbers due to the COVID regulations, which we may not care for either but must follow protocol to maintain Gold Standard. Occasionally, prior local guests of ours ask to use the beach front. We try to accommodate and honor their land and beaches, The hot water has never been a problem (it is normal to take 2 to 3 minutes to get hot), it is the distance it travels, but we had the heater looked at and all is well. I am sorry this made you uncomfortable. We apologize for the troubles, and hope your future travels go smoother.

We had a lovely, three-day stay in Hopkins Village hosted by the amazing Angel at the White Horse Guest House. The bungalow had everything we needed: comfy bed, fully equipped kitchen, tiled shower. Ceiling fans and available air conditioning (just pay the extra $5!) made everything cool and pleasant. The grocery right next door had everything we needed, and Ella's Cool Spot just over the fence on the other side had fantastic food and a fun place to meet the local people. Since we visited during Covid, we were told it was "relatively quiet" even though we were there over Easter, but it was still pretty boisterous - not that it bothered us! Do be aware that the Inn is right in the middle of the village, and there are plenty of people around during the day, seemingly more at night! The grounds at the Inn are immaculately kept - even the sand down to the water is raked daily! It was too windy when we visited to take advantage of the kayak and available floats, but we made good use of the lounge chairs and the bungalow porch. We had a wonderful time!
Be sure to ask Angel for a referral if you care to go touring, snorkeling, or fishing!

Very nice, well maintained, clean accommodations right on the beach. Angel is the property manager and is very nice and helpful. Ms Mae keeps the place spotless and will do your laundry for a small fee.
The beach is beautiful with lounge chairs, hammocks, kayaks available for guests. It is cleaned daily of seagrass and washed up trash.
There is an outside lounge area where we hung out and met our neighbors. Tons of restaurants and bars within walking distance. The grocery store is right on the corner.
I would just move in there if I could. Wonderful place and great prices.

We stayed 5 nights in a beach cabana (there are 2) and had an awesome time. We did not use our AC as the ceiling fans and sea breezes kept our cabana comfrotable; we loved our little shaded porch with chairs facing the Carribbean views. The rooms are clean and well-taken care of, and have well-equipped little kitchens. Angel (manager) was available and super-helpful. He helped us procure a tour (tubing and waterfalls) and taxi's, and was a great source of information on Belize, the town, and the area. The location is good with a grocery store next door and restaurants nearby. Nearby music bars can be a bit noisy on weekend nights. We swam extensively in the sea; the beach is raked and cleaned daily which prevents sand fleas. Great beach chairs, hammocks, free kayak, and coconuts to drink from the beach coconut trees. We liked the locals and the ambience.

The bungalows at the Inn @White Horse are fantastic. We spent 5 lovely days there and can't wait to return. The bungalow is right on the beach and has a great patio where we enjoyed our coffee and tea and watched the sunrise each morning. The accommodations are great - the bed is very comfortable, the kitchen is well stocked and everything was spotless. The location can't be beat - it's right in the middle of town with a grocery store next door and lots of restaurants within walking distance.
Angel, the hotel manager, was the best! He was so friendly and was always around to answer questions or help coordinate trips for us. He set up a last minute snorkel trip for us on our last day in Hopkins. It was a great way to end an amazing week.
One last thing to mention - Laurene was great to deal with when making our reservations. We emailed her a couple of days before we were scheduled to arrive and asked if we could make a change to our dates. She was very responsive and made the change without any problem or change fee.
If you're going to be staying in Hopkins, you should skip the resorts and stay in this wonderful little place instead. You'll be happy you did!
