May 05, 2024For a Quiet Time, Go Here
This is a quiet and well kept resort. It's a bit of a golf cart ride from the city, but it's worth it. If you're looking for tranquility in the form of sitting on the beach with a book or simply watching the sunset on the dock this is the place. There's a great little restaurant and bar, three pools (one of which does not allow children) and the service is awesome. We'll continue to go back to Sapphire beach each time we visit Ambergris.

Sapphire Beach Resort is a gem!
Sapphire Beach is a gem! It's a beautiful resort right on the beach. The staff is awesome and very responsive. They offer kayaks, canoes and bicycles for use at your leisure. There are 3 pools on the property which are all very nice. Unfortunately, there is no shade at any of the pools. There is a tiki hut between two of the pools for cocktails and refreshments. On Saturday evening they offer a limited menu BBQ dinner at the pool, which was fun. There is a restaurant on the property - open for breakfast, lunch and dinner - and the food was absolutely delicious! Would also suggest getting your booze at the Duty Free shop at the Belize airport before coming to San Pedro - it is much less expensive there! We took advantage of the airport shuttle offered by the resort (it's $100 US roundtrip for up to 5 people) and we were grateful for it! On the way from the airport we had the the shuttle stop at the grocery store in town for a supply stop - it was a lifesaver!! Would highly recommend a golf cart rental. The resort arranged for the cart for our stay, which was on the property when we arrived and was returned after we left. Its such a fun way to explore and learn about San Pedro and we put it to good use! All sites state the resort is 10 miles north of San Pedro Town - but note that it is about 40-45 minutes by golf cart. Secret Beach is about 35 minutes. Within a 15-20 minutes golf cart ride there are a number of bars and outdoor dining locations (both north and south) If you like a massage, take advantage of the spa! The resort arranged beach massages, which were absolutely faboulous! They suggest you bring bug spray (which we found to be ineffective) and benedryl (both cream and oral pills), which we did. The "no-seeums" are agressive. A member of our group was bit up badly and while there we were told to use baby oil or coconut oil to ward off the no-seeums. Bring that with you too :) Enjoy Sapphire Beach - We hope you have as great a time as we did!

Feb 28, 2024Excellent property, inconvenient to access.
Beautiful contained resort. Very nice grounds, well kept. Rooms were spacious, clean, well supplied and offered great wifi and visual media. Staff was helpful and attentive. Housekeeping was excellent. Great stay, lovely pools and beach. Property is located 10 miles from San Pedro. Road is slow and rough. There is a dedicated taxi company associated with resort. That was helpful and efficient to be picked up at airport and return to depart. Cost is $100 return trip. We enjoyed our stay at the resort. Be aware that it is a distance and large expend to travel back and forth to San Pedro. Golf carts are for rent, but the cost and effort is not likely worth it. Would recommend property to families and couples.

Sapphire Beach Resort a North Island Jewel
Wonderful north island resort. Far from San Pedro on a very bumpy road but we were looking for quiet relaxing so it was worth the drive. Great staff, so helpful and welcoming. Clean property with great security. Beautiful beach. Some additional outdoor loungers would be nice. Front desk reception (Heidi) arranged a snorkel tour with Amigos del Mar tours. Kyle and Bert were the best guides and so fun. They made our trip a worthwhile experience. Looking forward to a return to sapphire next year.

Pretty and secluded resort with outstanding on site food.
Sapphire Beach is like a little village in a secluded area north of San Pedro. The condos vary in size, but most units are private in their setting, with beautiful palm trees and white sand throughout. There are three pools, a tiki hut bar, and best of all a beautiful beach with piers going into the water. They have an on site restaurant serving three meals a day and the food is outstanding. The only downside is although they have many activities to offer, for most you have to go into San Pedro (about 30 minutes away) and for some of the better adventures you have to go to San Pedro, then take a water taxi to Belize for the adventure. Which is pricey and time consuming (about two hours altogether. If you just want to kick back and relax, it’s a very affordable vacation!
