We really enjoyed our stay at Villa by the Sea! Our family of 5 had plenty of room to spread out (the teenager thought it was really cool to have his own kitchen and bathroom upstairs). The dock was amazing, and the pool was just perfect for dipping off. The host was super helpful and responsive. I would recommend a golf cart! It really made going into town more enjoyable, being in an open-air environment. We used GetToKnowBelize for a few adventures (ATM cave, snorkel, and fishing), recommended by the host, and they were great! ##### Todd M.

This was our second time staying at this great property. As before, it never let us down. The house is amazing, the kitchen is of great design and wonderful for serving meals. We made stewed chicken, the national dish of Belize and everyone loved it. The pier is fantastic to hang out on and swim from and then there is the pool area for a relaxing time. It is close to Bocawina where we hiked through the rain forest one day and zip lined another. It is also close to Sub Umbra Floreo chocolate farm which was an amazing and informative tour. And, of course, don't forget about the ocean. What a place to wake up everyday and see that amazing view. Highly recommend staying here. -Arne ##### Jefff M.

Nice, quiet home with plenty of amenities to keep you entertained. Pool is small, but oddly perfect. Hanging out under the cabana, watching the water, was so relaxing.

A standout was the dock and thatch roofed covered platform at the end of the dock where you could see water on all sides an awesome place to eat dinner, sun yourself or just relax. It was our first time to Belize and we loved it. We went scuba diving and snorkeling most of the time we were there and found the underwater beauty spectacular. We also went on a great hike in the nearby jungle water fall filled national park which was incredible. The little beach shack restaurants right on the sand are great. Darwin the caretaker was there whenever we needed him for advice and sue the owner was great. ##### Brian L.

From the start, the property manager Darwin was exceptionally helpful. He was quick with responses and recommendations before and during our trip, and gave us a tour of the home and amenities that made our experience in Hopkins fun and easy to navigate. We enjoyed our inland excursions to the ATM Cave and various ruins and being picked up from the pier by boat to go snorkeling. Our experience was truly remarkable and we would highly recommend Villa by the Sea! ##### Jeff T.

The house is well stocked, very clean/organized, and comfortable. We also love the location and proximity to Hopkins- everyone in the village is so kind. Darwin was incredibly helpful in pointing us in the direction of the various activities we wanted to do while we were there. The property owner is also very kind and easy to communicate with.

It was especially nice after the problems with our airlines. The place is fantastic. The amenities are great. Everything that you could ask for in a property. The host set us up well and Darwin, the on site host, greeted us and gave us some great suggestions. Both were available if we had any questions. It is the perfect place to get away from the hassles of life. It is also close to Bocawina and St. Hermans Blue hole and only an hour and a half from Xunantunich Mayan ruins. We definitely would stay here again. Thank you so much. -Arne ##### Arne M. Stayed 8 nights in Mar 2023
