The entire staff was incredible. The front desk/office was welcoming and friendly and were helpful with whatever we needed.
The restaurant staff (Miss P, Ben, Amanda) made our stay very special. They were personable and took moments during their food service to connect with us as people. The stay would not have been the same without them!
The tour staff (Oz, Manuel, Keith) had an absurd amount of knowledge about Belize and its history. We could listen to them talk about these excursions and their experiences for days!
Overall, the Beaches and Dreams experience was unforgettable and we will most certainly be coming back!
