Lovely stay! Helpful staff! Only one person (female bartender) seemed to be having a bad day! She was on her phone when I approached, and proceeded to fling things around as she made our drinks. I didn't let it spoil my time in the pool, but the energy was definitely different than anyone else at the property!! My husband and I loved the bungalow on the beach!

Our stay was excellent from start to finish. Prior to our arrival, I contacted the front desk to inquire about the weather, as we were considering canceling our trip. The staff was extremely helpful, keeping us informed of the weather conditions and accommodating a potential change to our reservation.

When we arrived earlier than the scheduled check-in time, we were pleasantly surprised to be granted immediate access to our room. In addition, we were generously upgraded to a larger apartment than the one we had originally booked.

Overall, it was a wonderful stay marked by exceptional hospitality, outstanding customer service, and a genuine commitment to guest satisfaction. We would gladly stay here again and highly recommend it to others.

Maya is a great place to stay and their restaurant is the best! Try the peanut brittle pie (homemade from scratch) when you go there as I've never had a better dessert. The pie is a legend in Belize as well as all their other fabulous food and bakery goods. A true Belize getaway, simple and fun. Clean as well!

Everything was wonderful except the Beach in front of the property... We contacted the resort ahead and asked about the sargassum seaweed condition on the beach and we did not receive an answer.. so we were already expecting there to be some sargassum seaweed... What we weren't expecting is the garbage washed up on the beach with the sargassum... The beach was very tiny and I'm assuming could have been easily cleaned in a few hours.... It wasn't clean when we got there and the same garbage and seaweed was there when we left two days later.. it was not smelly as sargassum some times can be, it was just unsightly and we didn't want to go anywhere near the water.... The beach would have been lovely and amazing if it were cleaned.... Other than that every other experience we had at this property was top notch... The staff, the rooms, everything other than the beach condition was very very good.

We had a very nice stay in the Manatee room, which was very spacious and well appointed; the room was much nicer in person than shown in the online pictures - a nice treat.

There was a nice roomy balcony overlooking the beach / water. The room had a full kitchen that was very functional and there was a Publix grocery store a short taxi / car ride away.

The on property restaurant had several good fish dishes and a variety of breakfast offerings.

The staff were all polite and helpful during our stay.

Recommended if you are looking for a “Caribbean rustic” stay on the beach.

This place is great! Staff was amazing, room was clean and spacious. The bistro on site serves amazing breakfast, lunch, and dinner. We ate there for every meal during our stay and never had a bad meal.

The only downside was the sargassum. We were there in April for spring break and it was bad. The beach was unusable, which was a shame. The pool was nice and since it's a small resort, it never felt crowded. We would definitely come back!

Such an awesome place and incredible restaurant /bakery! I stayed at Itsana down the street for 8 days and swithed to Maya beach hotel. Maya beach is more low key. with a beautiful beach, the rooms aren't some crazy glam rooms but well kept and maintenanced which is why I like it. It's a beautiful family run business and it shows. The restaurant draws all the locals in so that's a good indicator...

Charming Beachfront Stay with Amazing Food

We loved our stay at the Maya Beach Hotel on the Placencia Peninsula. The location is absolutely perfect—right on the beach, with the soothing sound of the ocean just steps from our cozy bungalow-style room. Falling asleep to the sound of the waves was such a treat.

The hotel has a relaxed, welcoming vibe, and the amenities really added to our experience. We took advantage of the complimentary paddle boards, kayaks, and bikes to explore the area and the beautiful coastline.

One of the real standouts was the food. The on-site restaurant serves delicious meals with a creative and unique menu. Every dish we tried was fresh and full of flavor—definitely one of the best dining experiences we’ve had in Belize.

Maya Beach Hotel is a great choice for anyone looking to unwind by the sea while enjoying great food and thoughtful touches. Highly recommend!

Super clean rooms with all the amenities. I can’t say enough good things about this place. You get to know the staff the manager walks around each morning asking if you’d like a cup of coffee brought to your porch. It just doesn’t get any better than this.
