Fodor's Expert Review Seaside Cabanas
Av. Hicaco, Caye Caulker, Belize District, Belize Fodor's Choice
Warm in ambience and in attitude, this orange zest-color inn is arranged snugly around a freshwater pool. Seaside’s two-story buildings command a prime location near the main public pier, and thatch accent roofs lend the hotel a distinctly Belizean vibe. It has nice design touches, like soft and indirect lighting, built-in bench seats, and local paintings. Five rooms have private rooftop terraces for sunning, watching the sea, and––a rarity on the island––soaking in the private hot tub. For breakfast you’ll have a nice spread of yogurt, fruit, muesli, and fresh cinnamon buns. The onsite bar serves coffee and tasty cocktails (with an extra long happy hour).
PROS
- sunny decor
- feels private despite prime location
- good rates for an island that's getting pricier
CONS
- beach swimming in front of hotel is not good
- not actually individual cabanas
- bikes and canoes are for rent instead of complimentary
