Tough to hand such a large group that ranged from kids to retirees but this group handled beautifully providing education, excitement and humor. I think everyone agreed this excursion exceed everyone's expectations. We started the morning with a overview of the keys by boat, then our guides showed us how we kick off fishing by throwing nets for our bait. We then spent some time trolling for big fish letting a couple get away but finally reeling in a barracuda. With limited trolling poles and so many wanting to fish we switched tactics fishing along edge of reef. Everyone that wanted to catch a fish did and at a few points we had 3 or 4 fish on lines at one time. In only a couple hours we caught more than 20 keepers (mostly red and yellow snapper) and several throwbacks. Our guides were so helpful in teaching the young one's and helping everyone with such enthusiasm. After fishing we stopped at a laid back island for a chicken lunch then headed our for group snorkeling where Steven did a great job keeping tabs on everyone and pointing out different highlights. We headed back late afternoon where they cleaned our fish for us and sent us back with enough fish for a great evening dinner on the grill. I highly recommend this...

This is the cleanest place we have ever stayed in Belize. Had the most amazing view of the moon rising over the sea. All the staff was friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. Didn't realize they had no TV but spend lots of time walking beach and sitting on porch watching water. Loved watching Ruger the dog with all the guests. Plan on coming back anytime we have opportunity. read less - Paradise494434

It was truly a wonderful experience! The location is simply gorgeous and the staff couldn't be more accommodating. From the moment we arrived via the "jungle plane" hop from Belize international to Dangriga airport where we were greeted by our personal driver the service was exceptional! Less then an hour later we were checked in and the owner Ryan Jansen provided us a tour of the property. Everything was coordinated for us including all of our excursions. We were guided through Mayan ruins, had a horse back ride in the jungle, a tour of the local Chocolate factory and scuba diving. Everything was handled by the staff and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay! If we needed anything all we had to do was ask. We even had roof top massages after busy days and they were so relaxing. I highly recommend you consider this resort if you plan to go to Belize. You will not be disappointed! read less - stevecraigsr

I enjoyed visiting my brother and sister in law who stayed at Beaches and Dreams and eating and drinking with them.

The staff was lots of fun and really became our friends. I forgot my. credit card there the first night and of course, they kept it safe. I did have to put up with a lot of teasing though, which made it all fun!

Food was good and every day/night there is a special drink of the day. read less - FLMetro

My husband and I chose Belize for our honeymoon and we were more than pleased with the resort we chose!! The excursions available were great!! We saw so much...the crocodile night tour with the bioluminescence was out of this world!! It was an experience like no other and one that we would highly recommend!! The Mayan ruins, Xunantunich, were incredible. And every tour guide was full of so much knowledge! We really learned so much about Belize, the culture, and their history!! Of course, fishing and snorkeling are a must do when in such a beautifully tropical place!!! Our guides, Jeremy and Steve, knew all the great spots to stop which allowed us to see such a wide variety of sea life while snorkeling!!

We stayed in a cabana suite which was perfect. Going to sleep with the sea breeze while listening to the sounds of the tropical birds was perfection!

The food was so well prepared and absolutely delicious!!

And of course we can’t forget to mention how friendly and wonderful the staff was!!! Francine, Birdman, Milky, Armando, Caesar...I’m sure I’m forgetting some and I apologize but you guys were awesome!!

The memories we made will last for forever and we cannot wait to make a return trip to see more of this beautiful country!! read less - Jewell

My husband and I went with another couple and we had a fun relaxing adventurous time. It’s the slow season right now and it was just the 4 of us for most of the 7 days we were there. Food was great and drinks were abundant. A bit disappointed in the dessert options BUT we mentioned it to Milkie, our waiter, and next day we had cheesecake! Oh, and the bugs were bad at times SO when they say bring deet bug spray DO IT! We had a blast in town at the Driftwood bar hanging with locals and listing to some drums and reggae music. We had a great time and will be back. Shoutout to these great people - Ryan, Jessica, Francine, Pauline, Oz, Keith, Birdman, Caesar, Milkie, Fredis, Stevie, Jermey, and Manuel. I may have missed a few as I didn’t know their names but basically all the staff was awesome! And of course Ruger the dog 🐶 and Smith the cat🐱! read less - Sherry
