"The Cabana was nice and clean, had all we needed to make the stay easy and happy. At first I thought it would be to far out of the way, but not at all. The location was actually perfect for visiting Bocawina Falls, and Hopkins. Also we were happy with the airco, and sat at the roof top enjoying the view of field and mountains. A very nice surprise at the edge of town, and enough resorts around the beach taking care of our dinners."

The property has no storing nor hangers for your clothes. In the bathroom there are no towel hooks which could be nice to have. The toiletries could have more comfortable dispensers and not just small wooden cups"

Top Santa Cruz Hotel Reviews

Belizean Nirvana

Belizean Nirvana

8/10 Good
"Nice property with friendly and courteous front desk staff. Good breakfast and room service. Only problem is the owner/ proprietor was quite abrasive in her interactions. Yes, the reservation did not accurately reflect the correct number of guests due to some last minute change of plans. However, it was an easy fix, but she made more of it than was necessary. To be in the hospitality business, you must be able to pivot and accommodate your guests without a whole lot of complaining and attitude. Would have been a lower rating, but my daughter and her friends enjoyed their stay."
