Shaka Caye All Inclusive Resort

Not only is the location breathtaking, but all of the staff and people at the resort or so helpful and friendly. The bungalows are all within 40 feet or so of the ocean. Everything was very clean and anything you needed was brought to your bungalow right away. The all inclusive policy is a good one, the only complaint we have at all was that the choices for the meals were pretty limited. Overall, it was a wonderful trip.

We had the most amazing stay at Shaka Caye and can't say enough good things about the resort, the accommodation, the staff, the food. We were met off the plane and taken to the marina where we took a short 30 minute or so boat ride to the island where Daisy and Roddy were waiting with a lovely, cold rum punch. Our rooms were beautiful with welcoming towel arrangements and flowers on the bed. There is a little beach where you can swim and there are kayaks and paddle boards available to go around the island - you must fo across to the famous 'miami' beach which has some lovely swimming. We snorkeled among the mangroves (snorkeling equipment all provided) and, although not a ton of fish, once you let your eyes settle in you see all sorts of them and we actually saw a barracuda. Two of our party also saw manatee's from the island! We went snorkelling with the amazing Andre out to the reef and saw nurse sharks, eagle rays, stingrays, green moray eels and hundreds of different types of fish. Two of our party spent another half a day with Andre fishing and had the best time. And the food. What can I say, every single meal was absolutely stunning. Make sure you have the banana bread and fry jacks in the morning! The gym is pretty basic but to be honest we were there to relax. We booked a massage and it was also wonderful. We had lots of cocktails with the local (free) alcohol which were fantastic but the wine you have to pay for was very reasonably priced. Rooms were cleaned daily, the fridge re-stocked daily, and every afternoon a delicious snack was brought to our rooms or the beach. This was our first time in an all inclusive resort and we were concerned we might find it constraining but it was the opposite. It allowed us to relax and be pampered. Thank you everyone at Shaka Caye for giving my family a truly memorable holiday.

One of the best trips we have ever been on. We had a large group of family and friends and the amazing staff were always willing and able to answer any of our questions or take care of any of our needs. Shaka Caye offered top notch accommodations and excellent food! The island is beautiful. The water is crystal clear. The staff made our stay so enjoyable!! We would and have already recommended this little piece of paradise to family and friends.

Everything about our stay was amazing! The convenience of boat transportation, the food was incredible, the property was romantic and beautiful, and their beach was so fun. Mostly, every staff member was so kind, helpful and great to be around!!! Shout out to Andre!

The staff was wonderful thank you

Our family had the BEST stay of their lives so far. We traveled with 2 adults, 3 kids (10 - 12). We stayed in the presidential house because of our family of 5. While it does not have direct beach access, it is a 30 second walk to the beach. There is a ton of space, no kitchen, which is fine, the beds were very comfortable, the rooms were cold and the ambiance was calming, serene and forces you to slow down. We saw the sunrise from our porch, the kids loved laying in the hammock and nearly falling asleep. Our boat captains, Andre and Edwin navigated night time travel and rough seas to transport us safely to and from the mainland. It was a very unusual windy time when we were there, which did not at all detour our experience. Daisy was always kind to us, smiling, checking in on if we were enjoying our stay. She met us at the dock when we arrived and was there with Obie when we left. Obie would run us beers to the beach and back -- that was above and beyond and he shocked us with that a few times! He makes the best Pina Coladas. Not the mix stuff, all fresh and from scratch. Raddy and Michael were our restaurant waiters who were ever so patient with us and our kids. They were extremely accommodating and the service they provided was great. The chicken tenders were ever so good -- the kids loved them. We asked to meet the chef to send our personal thank you for wonderful meals that were unique to Belize and inspired by their culture. My kids did not want to leave, neither did we honestly. We did arrive to our next destination and the entire time we were wishing we were back at Shaka. The kids were able to paddle board, snorkel, they felt so safe on this private island. Entering the water was easy and gorgeous clear blue. It was the most beautiful place we have been and the people that work there make this island experience wonderful. Be sure to consider the tip at the end, you don't tip per person. The other respectable mention is they will not take a direct tip, they do communal tipping at the end, and please be sure to consider that if/when you are booking. We will ABSOLUTELY be back. This time, stay at least 5 nights and likely have plans to make a quick trip to Caye Caulker, but mostly stay on the island and relax. We can't wait to return.
