Two Resorts, One Team

Two Resorts (and one Village) for the Price of One

Jess and I took over Beaches and Dreams back in 2017 and turned it into one of Hopkin’s premiere all-inclusive resorts.  In 2022, we took over a beloved, but hugely dilapidated, old resort a half-mile up the beach and proceeded to pour everything we’ve learned into it.  That creation, Cabana Village, opened in December of 2025.

Rather than run them as separate resorts, we decided to run them as one property with a shared team and amenities for all our guests, so no matter where you sleep, you get the same experience. We also now include six of our village’s best restaurants in our all-inclusive meal plan, so the whole village is now yours to explore. And to make this easy, we created our “Cart Pass” plan which provides shared acess to our golf cart fleet as well as a free shuttle running the 1 mile circuit between both resorts and the village.

As to which you should stay at, it doesn’t really matter because, as all our reviews will attest, it’s our team that makes your experience great.  Having said that, here are my thoughts between the two resorts.

Beaches and Dreams

Beaches and Dreams is the original and is still the hub of activity.  Our fine-dining restaurant and our main offices are here, so if you never want to have to leave your resort, Beaches and Dreams is for you!

On-site amenities: Barracuda fine dining restaurant, Sea Bar wood-fired pizza, paddle boards, kayaks, bikes, fishing dock, dock hammock, beach palapas, small pool, roof deck, beach volleyball, cornhole.

Cabana Village

Cabana Village is breathtaking.  With 13 historical cabanas, restored to exacting standards, situated around one of Belize’s most amazing pools, it feels ultra-premium.  We don’t serve dinner at the restaurant here though, so you’ll have to be out and about a little more in the evenings.

We had a great time staying at Beaches & Dreams. Everyone who works there really cares about providing the best experience possible for their guests. I want to thank Miss Lauren for accommodating my schedule change requests which enabled us to snorkel on a Friday that turned out to be the perfect day for snorkeling. I want to help thank Nadine and Darnell for helping us with our reservations and answering our many questions.

I want to thank Keith especially for being an amazing and patient tour guide. I want to thank the snorkeling guides but I don’t remember their names. They were wonderful. I also want to thank Manuel who took us on two tours and was fun and very knowledgeable. The front desk staff were also wonderful Marissa, Maritchka (so?), Justin, Darnel, and Darnel. Oz, our driver was also really great and we just loved his daughter. The kitchen staff are fantastic as well - especially the chef who always came to check on us Miss P, who was always so sweet and cheerful in the morning and Amanda, who was our photographer for our unforgettable honeymoon dinner. If there’s anyone I forgot I apologize the entire crew was awesome and we will definitely be coming back. - Shaye - 1/19/2025
