Beaches & Dreams

We actually stayed at the sister hotel parrot cove but the whole experience was very nice. The food at the Barracuda restaurant was amazing and the staff was top notch!!! A real hidden gem in my opinion. With that being said Chef Robs restaurant at parrot cove was a let down for us!! - Caleb - 2/01/2025 

All I can say is WOW! I miss it already. We visited Beaches and Dreams in August for a week's vacation with my family and my sister's family. We stayed in the Blue Parrot house booked through Beaches and Dreams, which allowed us all to be together with a pool on the beach. Making the reservations and booking the tours was a piece of cake. They just took such good care of us from the get go. Any question or issue was addressed immediately. The all Belizian staff was one of the best parts. They truly became our friends. During planning, I was a little worried about only having one restaurant, but it was actually one of my favorite parts. They had new dinner specials each day and the food was fantastic as was the service! Ben, Evan, Milky, Ceasar, Amanda...you guys are WONDERFUL. Oh, and the tours...I really thought they were booked through another company, but no...we had our very own tour guides and our tours were incredible. Our favorite had to be the Mayan temple and Cave Tubing with Oz. It was a FULL day, but I have never experienced anything like it and learned so much about Belizian history and culture. All of the tour guides...Oz, Victor, K-Mike, and the snorkeling crew again, just took great care of us. Everything was planned to perfection. This is truly a little slice of heaven. We went there to relax and have a little fun and I can honestly say, it was one vacation that I came home actually feeling rested. The sad part is that I really want to go back. - Emily - 8/28/2024 

Out of 5 stars, I give beaches and dreams 1,000. This resort is absolutely amazing and more than I could have ever dreamed of asking for! The cabana was spacious, clean, and right on the beach. The food was gourmet and we never had a bad meal. The drinks were tropical and delicious. The excursions were fun and knowledgeable. But the icing on the cake was most definitely the staff! Everyone there truly cares about their guests and we’re so friendly! We were unfortunate (or very fortunate depending on how you look at it) to have hurricane Lisa make an appearance on the day we were supposed to depart, however, the managers allowed us to stay in our room (free of charge) until the airport reopened for us to leave (an extra two days!). I would absolutely recommend anyone and everyone to enjoy a stay at beaches and dreams. My husband and myself are already planning our next vacation there! - Katy - 11/05/2022 

We visited with a group of friends and family to celebrate my 50th. Beaches and Dreams has exceeded our expectations.

We are a group of mixed ages and abilities. The resort easily accommodates this variety. The relaxation opportunities are wonderful from lounging to massages to floating in the pool. The opportunities for the more adventurous range from caving to hiking and are breathtaking. The tour guides are friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating.

Now let’s talk about the staff — or should I say “family” — who work at beaches and dreams. They are wonderful and might even be the best part of the trip. The people are genuine and happy. They are so welcoming and we just felt close to them. They know all of our names and even the bartender knows our itinerary.

I cannot say enough about the employees but an extra special shout out to Ms. P and Ben. Ms P is WONDERFUL. Aside from being a fantastic waitress, she is obviously a WONDERFUL human. She chatted with us in a manner that was genuine and real. I absolutely love her and hope to see her again. Ben is more reserved but his smile lights up the bar. He’s a great bartender and took care of all our special requests. He worked extremely hard while we were visiting and had a smile on his face.

I’m getting long winded so some other helpful details: beds good pillows and towels. Plenty of water in the rooms, small refrigerator, ice outside rooms, nice seating area, great solitary places to relax and great group places to relax.

We loved our Beaches and Dreams vacation and highly recommended. - Anna - 2/20/2023 

Loved this place so much. Every single staff member was top notch, from the lobby to the restaurant and the tour guides. Thank you all for making our stay amazing ? - Melissa - 2/13/2023 

Just returned from our Beaches and Dreams vacation. It exceeded our expectations. Even with Hurricane Lisa interrupting the middle of our trip. We only got to complete 3 out of 4 excursions because of the storm, but each one was special. The Garifuna Immersion was so informative. I enjoyed learning about their culture and cooking a traditional meal. Xunantunich and cave tubing was an exhausting but wonderful day. Oz is a very knowledgeable tour guide. Lunch was offsite in one of the towns. Cave tubing was perfect accompanied tour to cool off. The Hurricane put a pause on our trip, but the staff took great care of us with room service and extra supplies. We enjoyed renting a golf cart to go into Hopkins village after the stay in place was lifted. Last day was the southern ruins and spice farm. Perfect ending excursion for the trip.

Restaurant, Barracuda, was exceptional for our meals and drinks. Dinners were light and fresh, expertly prepared. Love the staff, especially Amanda, Cesar, and miss P. Ben makes great drinks! Our favorite appetizers were the ones we ordered that day. They keep changing as we ordered something different each night to try. Shrimp nachos and family meals are must try at lunch time. Too bad fry jacks weren't offered every breakfast, only because they were so good i wanted more!

We are looking to coming back for another visit. Thank you for an amazing trip. - tracyh134 - 11/06/2022 

Amazing experience. Friendly and helpful staff. Beautiful facilities. Everything was perfect. Great communication before the trip, and all the assistance we needed during the trip. There's always opportunity for difficulty and stress when arriving in a foreign country and navigating around. From the moment we walked out of the airport (Victor was waiting with an air conditioned van) to the moment we left, Beaches and Dreams helped us create a wonderful Belize experience. We also had a lot of free time to explore on our own, and with the free bikes from B&D, we explored the beautiful village of Hopkins and spent time with the locals. - Nicholas - 7/27/2023 

Beaches and dreams is a magical place! The staff is beyond amazing! We spent our mornings with adventures and afternoon's in paradise on the resort! The littlethings that are included with your stay like the bikes to ride, the kayaks to use. Fishing and snorkeling gear will def keep you busy...or if you want to relax you can in a hammock The drivers and tour guides are so knowledgeable. We had the pleasure of having Victor for a few of our excursions and he went above and beyond my expectations! The food was amazing, drinks were great, service was A+. Can't wait to go back and take my family! - Mellisa - 11/18/2022
