Fodor's "The sound of the surf is the only night noise at this smart, red-roofed resort, where you'll commune with others who love fishing and other water activities as much as you do." Full review
Travel + Leisure "This eco-tourism resort is known for some of the best saltwater fishing, diving, and snorkeling in Belize's largest marine reserve in the Caribbean"
Frommer's "This is a superbly run fishing resort geared toward dedicated flat-water fly-fishing. Everything here is simple, yet luxurious...rooms are all beachfront and housed in a couple of long, low buildings" Full review
Frommer's "Located on a tiny private caye at the southern tip of the Turneffe Island Atoll, this is the swankiest outfit on the outer atolls" Full review
Lonely Planet "Although its principal fame is as a fishing retreat with expert guides, this Blackbird Caye lodge also offers excellent dive trips that are less crowded than at other resorts." Full review

Fodor's "Steps from one of Belize's best beaches, where you can swim, snorkel, and dive from shore, and fish to your heart's content, is this former convent turned peaceful island retreat on 3½ seaside acres." Full review
Frommer's "Operated by the folks at the Pelican Beach Resort in Dangriga, this isolated island getaway is one of the best-run little resorts on these little cayes" Full review
Lonely Planet "The hotel is close to the airport and has clean, but uninspiring rooms with TV, air-con and colorful local artwork. Most rooms have beach-facing porches with hammocks.
