According to forum posts, Grand Caribe Resort is praised for its beachfront area where guests can walk directly into the water, located north of the bridge. Victoria House also comes highly recommended for its service, though it is noted that while the view is spectacular, the property is protected by a seawall.

Some travelers have mentioned that while Ambergris Caye isn't famous for its expansive sandy beaches due to the protective reef, places like Ramons offer a better beachfront for swimming. However, the sea at Ramons is not primarily ideal for swimming due to other limitations like the absence of liquor service.

For those seeking luxurious stays, travelers have called out Victoria House for great food and service, located just 2 miles from the airport, providing a full resort experience without the need for cooking.

According to forum posts, two public water taxi services operate from Belize City to Ambergris Caye: the Caribbean Sprinter Water Taxi and the San Pedro Belize Express Water Taxi. These are suitable for groups and include luggage services, where bags are tagged and can be collected upon arrival.

Travelers have mentioned that golf carts are a popular mode of transportation on Ambergris Caye. These can be rented right at the ferry docks upon arrival. Some resorts, like the Grand Caribe, are accessible by golf carts, and rentals can accommodate luggage if the number of passengers is limited.

Some resorts on Ambergris Caye, such as Alaia Belize, provide transportation from the ferry or the airport to the resort. This can be a convenient option for travelers not wanting to manage their transportation directly upon arrival.

For inter-island travel, companies like Tropic Air and Maya Island Air offer flights to and from Ambergris Caye, which can be an alternative for quick and direct transit to the island.

Some travelers on the forum mentioned a few lodging options in San Pedro. One user found a quiet hotel near Secret Beach; although specific names weren't provided, the budget mentioned was around $150 per night. For a more upscale option, The Phoenix Resort was recommended for its location and service, particularly appealing due to its proximity to the town center.

According to forum posts, Ramon’s Village Resort was highlighted for having the nicest beach for swimming in San Pedro. This could be an appealing choice for those prioritizing beach access. Also, Belizean Shores was booked by a traveler for its location slightly outside of San Pedro, which offers a quieter environment.

For travelers looking for different experiences, options on Caye Caulker were also discussed. Pura Vida on Caye Caulker was mentioned as very nice and relaxing, located near the ferry but away from the main street noise. This could offer a quieter alternative while still being accessible.

According to forum posts, golf carts can be rented at various locations on Ambergris Caye. Travelers have mentioned renting carts directly near the ferry landing, which implies availability right upon arrival to the island. Additionally, specific rental services like Marks Golf Cart Rental are noted for meeting customers at the airport with carts, providing added convenience.

Some services, such as those offered by Marks Golf Cart Rental, include delivering the golf cart to your location and assisting with luggage transport to your accommodation, as highlighted by one user's experience. This can be particularly helpful for those carrying heavy or bulky items such as scuba gear.
