Great hospitality, easy communication with the staff, delicious fresh food, nice calm beach, Access to kayaks, snorkeling gear, and paddle boards, great snorkeling and other tours available for an extra reasonable fee. The cottages were large, modern, with a private balcony. The beds are very comfortable. Everything was easy. No complaints at all.

This was a vacation of a lifetime. The resort is very small and quiet. The service is excellent. I worked with Jacob prior to our arrival and he went above and beyond to meet our expectations. Edwin can take you on an adventure that you will never forget. His knowledge and personality made it so much fun. The chef was amazing, every meal he cooked was delicious. Now Hector…this guy…he made all our drinks, delivered food to our room, brought coffee when asked. He is a character and writes the menu options out daily (it was the highlight to see what he would come up with). Everyone on the island treated us great. Made sure we had everything we needed and then some. Beachfront is the way to go, the views you can’t beat. Romantic dinner on the beach is a must. Book the trip with Edwin to go to Caye Caulker for a day. It was so much fun. There was only 2 other couples there when we were and we became friends and went to Caye Caulker together. The staff set up a bonfire, found all of us our own crabs to have races, gave us a firework display. Just Amazing! Book it and enjoy. We plan on going back for sure.

We had a wonderful time at Shaka Caye. The staff was amazing and very welcoming. We happened to be the only guests for our stay and they never once made us feel like we were inconveniencing them. Instead, they said, don’t feel bad, the island is all yours! How cool! We reef snorkeled and went to Caye Caulker, all of which I would recommend as our guide was fantastic. We also got great massages, ate great food and drinks. Anything we would have asked for, the staff would have made it happen. We felt incredibly safe with our 4 year old running around as well. We highly recommend this resort!

Shaka caye was not the experience we were hoping for. We booked for 4 days and left the island the morning of day 2! The food was horrible, could only eat on the island schedule. Not all inclusive on drinks or food. They opened on there on time. We took the boat to Caye Caulker for fun, food drinks and adventure. If you want to stay on the island and do absolutely nothing this is it.
