Captain Morgan's Retreat

Decided last minute to go out snorkelling to Hol Chan and Shark Ray alley. Called around and the only place willing to help was Roger at Captain Morgan. He set us up with Manual at Caribbean Breeze Tours. We had the boat to ourselves and Manuel was an amazing guide happy to point out and find all kinfs of fish, turtles, rays and sharks. We loved our afternoon and can't say enough about the service.

Great view , great staff clean & friendly

Just spent two weeks at Captain Morgans. I would def not stay there again. The cabanas on the beach are literally like a 1980's motel room. (dark & outdated) We spent most of our time on the next-door pool property. (Oceans 23). The food was just ok, staff nice, but literally a place just to sleep & shower. The appearance from the road looking at Captain Morgans is pretty bad........almost looks like it has lacked basic maintenance for years. New owner is not friendly or engaging. The other staff is nice though. There are many, much, much nicer places to stay...........only wished we had known before booking. The online photos are deceiving.

Great location. Work in progress. The location is awesome. About 15-20 minutes away from the golf cart grid lock of San Pedro. About 5 minutes from the Truck Stop, and 20 minutes from Secret Beach. We should have gotten a cart for the duration of our stay. The property is in the midst of renovation. The staff is awesome. On the other hand, this is the first hotel in Belize where you have to buy, yes buy, your water. The room did not have a microwave. But Greg, who runs the restaurant will gladly reheat food for you.

This is a great resort more north of town (closer to Secret beach than staying in town). They have 2 pools and a restaurant and bar. We stayed in the cabanas on the beach and were pleasantly surprised. Big rooms, with a couch, mini fridge and coffee maker in the room. They are right on the ocean with beautiful views to wake up to!!

The pictures on ******* and their site are VERY outdated. The resort exterior is super run down and underwhelming. You drive up and the first thing you see is the "******" which is closed and dilapidated. We got there around 6:30 and the lobby was closed and most of the lights were off luckily a worker let us into our room. 1/2 the resort is going through renovation which was not mentioned so the main pool would not be a place you would want to hang out as the renovations were happening right next to it. The cabana we stayed in was nice- definitely dated but served the purpose. There was 4 of us and we were given 3 towels (we got more the next day) and there was nowhere to hang anything. We had bathroom towels all over the room. It was a nice view of the sand and water. Unfortunately, the bugs were bad so we weren't able to enjoy the front porch. I am sure this place used to be amazing, but it has definitely lost a lot of its luster. We really didn't do anything there but sleep. There were two pools, but we did not use either as they did not seem that clean. We got one cup of coffee for $5usd that was Kirkland brand but did not get any food so not sure quality there. We heard mixed reviews from other travelers. We had stayed at the Belizan Shores last year and wished we would have moved but it was too much of a hassle. All of the staff that we talked to were great- friendly and attentive.
