Buttonwood Bay Hotels, Belize City

"Property is convenient for a overnight stay before leaving to airport or for wanting a hotel to stay at for a day trip to sight see in downtown Belize. Lots of good food/drinking bar options walking distance on the street ;conveniently located by the Caribbean Sea/ocean for a good view with great weather conditions. Hotel staff are very professional, courteous, and helpful. The rooms are new, updated modern the linens were very clean and the bed was soft and comfortable. I have to admit the first time in a long time that I’ve slept on any hotel bed and my back didn’t hurt b/c i can usually feel the springs from the cheap mattress. The room smelled fresh and I can tell that they clean it daily. The floors were tiled so no musty carpet smell. Even thought outside the hotel was busy It was quiet inside the 4th Floor during my stay. CONS My only complaints are that the TVs use a Roku fire stick and The Live tv option (the only option I use) didn’t work at all. I couldn’t get hot water in the sink basin BUT the shower water was hot though! Most importantly the air conditioner unit over the window definitely needs to be upgraded; it leaks water constantly and during the night it started making a loud noise because it had been running on all night so it woke me up and I had to turn it off to give it a break. With Belize being a tropical, humid country this USA serious issue especially during the most of the year when it’s always hot. Luckily for me I came in November. "

"Exceptional service, scenic ocean view and restaurant on site "

"There really are not enough words to describe how fabulous this experience was. If you are looking for a spot to truly relax, disconnect, and reset, this is the place. The location is unbelievable, the service is top notch, the food is phenomenal!! The idea of traveling to different places for different experiences is a great, but it will be a challenge to not choose this resort many times over because it was so wonderful. Don’t hesitate…book your stay NOW!!"

"The property is clean. Having a dock for river boats is interesting and adds a little charm to the hotel. The room is very clean and spacious. The toilet paper and other accessories are extra sufficient. Staff was helpful. A gentleman even walked me to the grocery store and told me about the buildings in the way. The decor of the room was nice. When I walked in the room, TV was on and was playing some soothing music, which was very nice. "

"Staff, room , restaurant all top notch."

"A Romantic Island Escape Shaka Kai in Believe is an absolute gem! From the moment we arrived, we felt like we had stepped into paradise. The bungalows were spotless and beautifully designed, with two large windows overlooking the stunning blue sea — waking up to that view was unforgettable. The food was amazing and clearly made with care, though my husband wished there were a few more options on the menu. Still, everything we tried was fresh and delicious. The staff truly made the experience exceptional — friendly, attentive, and always going above and beyond to make sure we were comfortable and happy. This isn’t really a place for kids in my opinion, but if you’re looking for a quiet, romantic escape surrounded by natural beauty, Shaka Kai is absolutely perfect. We can’t wait to go back! --- "
