This property is actually part of Jaguar Reef (a total of 3 resorts) with 2 pools, multiple bars, food options and the amazing dock bar. We had such a fantastic time here. It was relaxing, but also there are plenty of activity options to book if you want to fill your day. Our room was top notch and felt luxurious. We can't say enough nice things about the staff. They took great care of us, learned out names, and made us feel at home. The staff and the people of Belize in general, are such beautiful, kind, human beings. We are already talking about going back!

Gorgeous, newly open resort. Excellent quick and short boat ride to town, almost always waiting for passengers. Only problem--most staff were so newly trained that they used memorized lines instead of their brains.

The Almond Beach by Jaguar Reef was a beautiful little resort in Hopkins. Very quiet and a little out of the main town. Great for relaxation. The only issue we had was the water wasn’t working in my building for most of the afternoon on our second day. This made it difficult to shower or use the facilities, all was rectified around dinner time and the resort was nice enough to offer a free bottle of wine to our room for the inconveniences. A little note, that the resort should supply cutlery, napkins and extra plates if you are doing takeout to your room from the pizzeria restaurant.

The rooms were very clean. Staff was amazing and very attentive. Stephanie, Kenny, Alex,Chris,Steven, cardi G, Milky Way, Elisha, Genesis and Thomas were all GREAT! Excursions were super fun with great guides.
Food was ok
Beach had a lot of garbage wash up every day that wasn’t really cleaned up well. They had one guy picking up washed up garbage and 7 guys raking sand. I wish the beach would’ve had the same amount of attention as the grounds.
I would recommend getting a golf cart as the village with lots of great places to visit is about 2 miles away.

Beautiful property and our cabin room was blissful. Right on the beach. They raked the sand every morning and kept it clean. Only issue I encountered was finding the check in desk as it is all owned by Jaguar Reef.

This place is awesome. Everything from location, cleanliness, staff, ambience is great! Views from the beach are remarkable. Hopkins town is bike ride away. All the staff is very friendly and cooperative - want to call out Alicia from front desk who went above and beyond to help us plan a trip to Angel Falls ziplining and Mayan Sky ATV.

Came for a Christmas getaway to relax on the beach and escape the North American style holiday. Unfortunately we got to hear ths same North American music on repeat over dinner which really killed the vivlbe we came for. The resort seems to be trying to make North Americans feel at home not realizing we want to come here for Belizean beaxh vibes and culture. The food at the paddle house is excellent, the ceviche at the dock is fresh and the garlic shrimp at don tonitos is spectacular. If ever booking again we would try to stay at the main resort vs the house suites across the road. It didnt feel very safe as we had some raucous visitors on night three which scared the kids leaving us sleepless through the night.
Overall a beautiful place but as we spent about $2000 cad a day there, it definitley was not worth the money

Our stay was March 16-23rd. Two adults and an 11 year old. We stayed in the Deluxe Garden View room which actually had a very nice view of the ocean and was also a suite of two bedrooms, so our daughter had her own room which made her very happy and comfy. The room was beautiful throughout.
The staff got to know our names quickly and it very like home by day two.
The resort was full but the pool was never really crowded nor was the beach. There were many times where felt like the only people at the resort. The restaurant and bars available on the property were great. The dock had a really cool spot for seeing fish at night. Our daughter loved it. The beach and water were really nice though there was a sargasm mess for a few days. It didn’t hamper our fun.
Hopkins village is loaded with food spots. Our two favourites were Ellas Cool Spot & Nice Cream Ice Cream Shoppe. We rented a golf cart for the week which made it easy to get around town.
We took a tour to Xunantunich which was amazing and also went on a half-day fishing excursion which was also crazy cool. We caught a barracuda and numerous snapper.
A truly perfect week for us. Weather was exactly as forecast with no surprises.
I highly recommend this place. We spent a bit more than expected while there but it was definitely worth it.
