The room has a very nice ocean view and was clean. Very comfortable bed, cold A/C, very nice breakfast and the staff is super friendly and very helpful. It was tali a great stay. Swimming in the sea can be a little difficult as there is some sargazo near the shore, but there is a dock to skip the sargazo area. Unfortunately there is some garbage in all the island, but around the property it is clean. Breakfast is continental, but good. The hotel has the best beach to swim in the town area

We would stay there again. Kudos to the nice staff.

Great little place. The hotel was small and quaint. And the staff was amazing so friendly and helpful. We even went out on their sailboat Azul to go see the sharks and stingrays. What an amazing trip that was. The Palapa restaurant that was at the end of the pier was a fun little night spot with live music and good food. During the day you could float around in it, floating tubes out and back of the restaurant and enjoy the site efficient stingray, swimming below. Blue Tang Inn was the perfect little spot. Only five minute walk into town some of the most delicious food around.

Great Location!

Blue Tang is a great location! We (6 of us) were on the 'seaweed' side of island and a little stinky while walking on beach, but still such a great area! The Palapa Bar and Grill was literally just outside of the 'resort hotel' on the pier and was so much fun! A very short walk to Cool Beans Cafe every morning for coffee ( even tho we also had coffee downstairs provided with a nice continental type breakfast that was included each morning!) Another great restaurant and bar next door called The Sandbar with excellent food! Employees/staff were wonderful and rooms were nice and quaint! Great views too as there is a 3rd floor deck and you can see the sunrise and sunset on other side of island! Not one negative interaction with anyone! Staff helped us book our tours and transportation for everything! Great tour guides and lots of adventures! We rented golf carts and rode to other side of island to Secret Beach a few days....so much fun!
Thank you to Blue Tang Inn!!

Stay Away Not Worth The Rate!

First of all the website advertising is not the condition of the rooms! The ads are definitely a lot nicer than the actually room! The first notice was a musky mold smell. The 2nd situation was the AC being all the way down on temperature never got cold. Third the mattress should have been changed out 20 years ago. Lumpy and dips springs terrible sleeping! Shower had no water pressure and no hot water! Small bathroom! No counter space in bathroom just a sink. Definitely could not swim in water. Seaweed was terrible and stunk! The pool is very small. Overpriced for the hotel. You can go to a resort and stay for less money a night! Left due to obtaining a rash after the 2nd night. Paid for a week of stay up front. Let after 2nd night and hotel would not issue a refund! So of course had to dispute with bank to get funds back! Highly recommend staying away!

THE BEST STAY !

Words can not describe how wonderful our stay was !!! It sits directly on the beach , just steps away from the water. It has the cutest pool that so well taken care of and clean. The staff from the front desk to the night time security guard was the absolute best !!!! Don’t let its small quaint stature fool you , this is the best place. The location is central to everything. Splurge and get the ocean view room , SO WORTH IT ! They booked all the excursions and if they didn’t have something they worked hard to find something else. They really are committed to making you feel so relaxed and happy! They were so eager to answer all my questions (I asked a lot haha! ). I can go on and on but I think you get the point ! BOOK THIS HOTEL !!!

If the staff see’s this review I want yall to know that you made my 7 days ( and birthday) in belize so memorable and fun and I will forever be grateful !

Great hotel on the beach

Love the hotel - right on the beach, a short walk from the ferries and all the snorkeling excursions. Took their sailboat for the sunset cruise and it was really fun. Multiple places to hang out - up on the roof, at tables on each floor, down at the pool, the area where they serve breakfast - which is really nice. Big room and full kitchen (used the refridge which was great to have). Really great place.

I felt safe at this property. It was in a good location where restaurants, bars, and downtown was within walking distance. The room was very clean and comfortable. Needs better water pressure.
Even though continental breakfast was included, I felt like there should be more of an option. It was very limited. Also, the office closed by 6pm so if there were any questions or any needs after you would have to wait till the next day or rush back.

Loved that Palapa Bar and Grill was right at the end of the dock out front, so easy access to food and drinks and live music in the evenings! The place was very clean, and the little area out front is perfect for enjoying the complimentary breakfast. Our only issue was the wifi.

Nice location superb management and friendly staff

We stayed here for the last leg of our Christmas vacation until we tested positive before our departure back to US so ended up staying another week. The hotel staff and management were wonderful to us. They were super helpful getting us through our quarantine and bringing us groceries, supplies, etc and always a delicious breakfast with a smile.
Besides our unfortunate situation, the hotel is centrally located, with a beautiful view and offering of activities. Our room was large with a full kitchen and sitting area.

This property was excellent. It’s right on the water and in a prime location to tons of restaurants and a supermarket is a 1 minute walk. The staff was very friendly and helpful. They picked us up from the water taxi and dropped us back off when we left. They helped us set up a snorkeling adventure which was amazing. The interior of the room is outdated but I didn’t care one bit. It was so clean and the bed and pillows were comfy and they have nice towels as well.

Should be renamed Blue Emilse Inn - best host ever

This place is a steal! It’s located in the city centre facing the beach (not private, mind) so it’s great for people visiting and wanting to get to some of San Pedro’S restaurants, shops, art galleries, etc.

The rooms come w a kitchen which is a save! Coupled with richie’s supermarket that’s a 2 min walk from here, it’s great that We have the option of cooking, esp dinner. The San pedro roads get a bit dodgy at night and many may not prefer having a late dinner out and walking the deserted streets past 8pm. So it’s nice in that sense that you can cook or takeaway dinner and eat in the comfort of your room.

Room amenities are great - good Wifi, AC and fan, solid hot water in the bathroom, etc. They even provide a water container to refill your drinking water, and each room comes w a water jug in the fridge.

It’s very well sanitised - great Covid protocol followed.

The staff, as I say always makes a difference. Emilse at front desk is beyond brilliant, patient and helpful. And she always does it w a smile. She helped w tour bookings, getting our Pre-departure COVID tests, etc.

If I had to be extra extra extra nitpicky, I’d like to point out 2 things:
1) limited breakfast options, even worse if you’re a veggie. You have to ask at the breakfast counter
2) the curtains are very thin so if you’re a light sleeper like me and get awoken by the early sunrise, sleep w eye masks.

Overall, this hotel is a great bargain. It’s not for those looking out for a private beach resort

I would recommend Blue Tang to anyone. The beachfront location and the proximity to town were outstanding. The office staff were very friendly and helpful with all of my requests. I really enjoyed the homemade breakfast provided by the same lady each morning. Even the security guard (Victor) helped make my stay very enjoyable. This hotel could benefit with some cosmetic upgrades to the interior rooms, but overall, this is a fantastic place to stay in San Pedro.

The staff were all very helpful and friendly. Breakfast was simple but excellent. The pool area and beachfront were really well maintained. The room itself was cute and complete. I would gladly stay there again. It had character and from what I could tell looked like a better option than many others in San Pedro.

Nice place, great staff

Wonderful experience at this ocean side hotel. They booked a snorkeling tour for us thst left right from the hotel dock. Rooms are big beds are comfortable. We got early chick-in because the ferry from Corozal only runs in the AM and we were very early.

Lovely place to stay in San Pedro

I had a wonderful stay at the Blue Tang Inn. The staff were so helpful and friendly, with all aspects of my visit, even when I needed help applying aloe to my burnt back. The morning breakfasts were tasty and the location is awesome. Only a short walk to supermarkets, restaurants, beach and water taxi. My room was comfortable and clean. I would definitely recommend a stay here.

Overall great place in San Pedro

This place was great. In the heart of the action. Nice pool, good breakfast, clean, and great staff. The only issue we had was the fact that the room was facing the street which got a little noisy but thankfully there was a 10pm curfew so it wasn’t too bad. Overall great place to stay.

would go back in a New York minute.

It is a wonderful place. Nice little pool. Steps from the beach and several places to eat. Very clean and comfortable. The staff was always friendly and responsive. The problem with hotel websites is that many times the pictures look better than the reality. That is NOT the case with Blue Tang. Definitely get a unit that faces the pool/beach. I wish them all the best in this time of crisis (Covid-19) and hope they can stay afloat....

Excellent Value

Great place to stay for the money, location, inclusions and staff. Close access to the island ferries, beach bars and restaurants, and San Pedro. We enjoyed the kitchenette and refrigerator, and didn't feel like we had to eat out every meal. The bed was comfortable, and the staff were very friendly and helpful with their recommendations. The breakfast included with the room consisted of good-quality fresh fruit (papaya, pineapple and oranges), bread/toast, boiled eggs, cereal, a hot dish or two (scrambled eggs, breakfast burrito, potatoes, etc.), and coffee/fresh OJ. The only ding was the physical location of our room relative to the busy beach \"road\" and the golf cart volume at night. I imagine the other rooms that were further away or higher than the ground floor were a little quieter. I would definitely stay there again.

A spontaneous day trip

We were coming back to Belize from Roatan and decided to fly up to San Pedro/Ambergris Caye. We booked online for that night. We were greeted by Jermaine to let us in our room. The place is absolutely cute as a bug. Rooms were big and well appointed. It is right on the beach. The rooftop terrace was wonderful for a 360 degree view. We will for sure be back!!

Pros- great location right on beach and within walking distance of everything.

Cons-most staff was excellent, but we have a issue with rental of a golf cart from front desk. I was told the rental fee was $45-50 Usd per day. Upon check out a rate of almost $80 usd per day was charged. After making contact with staff this issue was never resolved.

If you are looking for fancy or to be pampered, this is not the place for you. We wanted to be in a location where we could walk, try the local food and get off tourist row. THIS IS IT! Fantastic location, everything was clean and well kept. Only complaint is that the beds are extremely hard and uncomfortable. Other than that, we will definitely be back to Blue Tang. We truly enjoyed the island, people, food and everything about San Pedro.

Blue Tang Inn was very attractive and well cared for. There was a very good restaurant, Palapa, right on the pier in front of the Inn. The office staff was most helpful, especially Roger, who answered all my questions each time I emailed them before we arrived. Breakfast was included and was served on the patio each morning. They even had their own sailing boat upon which we took a snorkeling trip to Hol Chan Marine Reserve and the Shark Ray Alley--lots of fun!

Loved the convenience of the location and the helpfulness of the staff. They have golf carts available to rent directly from the hotel, so that made getting around easy. Free WiFi was great and having a kitchenette in the spacious room was perfect for the 3 people we had staying there. Only small complaints were that the water temperature in the shower was sometimes inconsistent (can turn a warm shower to freezing or scalding whenever anyone else on that side of the building flushes or runs the water) and the street side of the hotel is quite noisy. I slept with earplugs every night.

The staff at hotel are great. They book trips, golf carts, etc. Hotel is very walkable to restaurants, bars. We were in room 4 by pool so had to keep curtains closed most of the time but was not a real issue. Very quiet at night. The only issue was extremely low water pressure, but this may be a island issue.

We loved the coziness of Blue Tang. It’s a little busy as it’s right by an intersection on the beach, but our room was in the middle of the resort so it was quieter. The staff is super friendly and helpful- Germain, Roger, Victor, Esmeralda, Carmen, Emelda, and I know I’m forgetting someone. Esmeralda was our breakfast host for the majority of our 10 day stay and she was great and kept things clean and well-stocked. The continental breakfast was not the usual stale danish and banana that we’re used to in the States. It consisted of fruit, hard boiled eggs, cereal, coffee, juice, and crock pot magic. Whatever is in the crockpot that day- try it! Local food such as Johnny cakes, beans, cinnamon bread, and fry jacks, plus they made waffles and pancakes 2 days. The location was perfect for us - in town and close to local eateries and all the dive shops. We’d stay there again!

We were heartbreakingly disappointed with the Blue Tang. We traveled from the US with our two young children to vacation here. Over 18 hours of travel. When we arrived it was shocking. The hotel is very old and is crawling with the most unsavory of sort. We were approached by hustlers and beggars outside of our room. Drunks screaming profanities at the top of their lungs. There is no proper beach here!!! There is a dock and a concrete barrier do not let the very misleading photos fool you and the area is crawling with drunk people driving golf cars like maniacs creating a dust bowl in the air of unpleasantness making walking around tough. This is not the relaxing beach holiday people dream about. The swimming pool is teeny tiny. The room itself, dark, dank and filthy! My kids walked around with their bare feet for five minutes and their little feet were black. The worst part was the gas smell coming from the stove in the room. It was dangerous! Take it from us, this is somewhere you stay if you are desperate and homeless, not for vacation.
