The hotel was really nice in a secluded area, but it was a little far away from everything else. As nice as the room was it could’ve used a bigger TV. The whole staff was really nice and professional. The hotel food was a little overpriced in comparison to the size portions but overall, I definitely enjoyed my stay.

We loved staying at Playa De Sala the staff was amazing and we can’t wait to go back this year. The restaurant has some of the best food on the Island and the staff is extremely helpful and kind. Raffee In particular was a pleasure to work with as I enjoyed fishing in the mornings off of the kayaks provided at the resort, while kayaks are a bit dated he was more than accommodating to make sure the kayak was ready to go for my early morning fishing adventures in Tarpon bay before the wife awake from her well deserved rest. I always caught fish in the morning and enjoyed the physical excercise of paddling around the bay. Can’t wait to return to see our friends and enjoy the tranquility and exquisite food. It’s at the end of the island so a golf cart is paramount to getting around, plus it’s a hoot to visit other locations on the island with your own golf cart. Would highly recommend as we are no returning visitors San Pedro and the Playa De Sala resort.

The staff is sooooo amazing!! They are the best part of this stay!! The beach and water is not what you come to Belize for. The node if transportation on the island is golf carts and with that being said, the flooding and dirt roads to get there is awful!! We went through 2 golf carts. I wish we could move the staff and the hotel onto the pavement and beach side!

Could be better

Our stay was good. Melissa was a great host even though that was not her job but she made us feel welcome and assisted us in what we needed. Jeremy and Sam were great and very attentive. The so called property manager I think his name was Brandon was ok need more training. Now the real kicker the owner was on site didn’t acknowledge herself as such talk to us and didn’t ask how our stay and we were really the only guest at the resort. It could be better.

The property was unique. The rooms are bigger than the website suggests and the showers are great. The decor is some rooms is rather dull with too much grey on top of all of the concrete. The little kitchenette and abundant towels were apprecaited. I twould have been nice to be provided with a small broom given all the sand that was inevitably tracked into the room. The common areas are limited, uncomfortable stools and swings at the breakfast and lunch bars and mostly outdoors which was uncomfortable given the wind, the bugs, and the cool weather while we were there.The upstairs rooftoop was great for dinner but also poorly lit, buggy, and windy. The menu choices were excellent and the cook would easily add or substitute ingredients which we appreciated. Dinner was great both nights we were there. There are a few good restaurants between the resort and the overpriced town of San Pedro. Black Orchid and Mahogony Bay are nice options. You pretty much have to rent a noisy golf cart to get anywhere from this property which is miles from the noisy, dangerous and dirty town of San Pedro (pedestrians beware; there are no sidewalks and the noise is infernal). The whole area of Isla Bonita is full of garbage and debris spoiling the landscape.The staff at the property were lovely, they did laundrey for us, made suggestions,etc. We thank them.

The property was in a very quiet area. The staff was beyond amazing and friendly. I would have preferred to be a little closer to town personally. The pool is very small and halfway under the shade. The website makes it look a lot bigger so it is deceiving. The continental breakfast that was included only consisted of a plate of scrambled eggs with a piece of toast and a few pieces of fruit along with one cup of tea or coffee. If you wanted more tea or coffee they charged you. The water isn’t swimmable. It is dark and murky. The room we were in (Wood Room) was tiny and the toilet wasn’t private. It was inside a wooden framed area that didn’t go all the way to the ceiling so you had no privacy at all. Melvin, Julie and Nathaniel were amazing and so helpful during our stay.

I'd like to start off by saying the food was delicious and the staff was friendly. However, the first night we were without tv because it didn't work. That was taken care of the next day. We wanted to use the infinity pool but were told it was broken. Then we wanted to use the kayaks but they didn't have life jackets. The reason we chose this hotel was the infinity pool and the free use of kayaks. Also, they started construction on an outside bar. We were awakened around 7 am to hammering, sawing and loud talking. Lastly, the pictures on the website are deceiving. This property didn't look as beautiful as we were expecting. We will definitely return to Belize because we did enjoy everything away from this hotel, but we will not stay here again.
