Victoria House Resort & Spa

Best place to stay near San Pedro. Nice mix of authentic style / vibe and comfort. Relaxed, friendly, attentive staff. Beautiful setting. Loved the beach bar restaurant. Overall F&B good but American prices. Room lovely but bed is on the small side. Weak water pressure in shower. Gym good enough. Possible to walk along waterfront for about 2km. A bit overpriced for the level of hotel, and expectation of tip on top of a 10% added service charge is too much (for us Europeans anyway).

My husband and I just returned from 8 nights at Victoria House. This was our first trip to San Pedro and we went to snorkel and celebrate my Birthday. The Hotel and the Staff at this resort are fabulous. We actually booked this area as we recently went to Fiji and realized we have a place much closer to us…a two hour fight vs a 23 hour flight. The grounds are beautiful and there are different types of rooms or groups of rooms to book. We stayed in a Casita which faced the water with a beautiful porch with chairs which were far enough back that the rain missed them. There is not direct beach access without going down steps to the water however we did not go into the water but did the pool. We sat on the lounges on the sand area facing the water and it was lovely. The restaurant, Palmilla has a great menu. Lunch and dinner. We only had their Continental Breakfast which worked for us. They also had a terrific pizza and lunch menu. Dinners were presented well and very unique items. A beautiful restaurant to dine in complimented by the wonderful staff that worked there. Estevan always looked for us and looked after us once we were there. We had several dinners and several lunches. The entire restaurant staff was engaging. It was a pleasure to be there. We rented a Golf Cart for the week from Rocks and they were great to work with. I had two massages with Roxanne and they were wonderful deep tissue and some stones massages. The Spa is on site and the prices very reasonable for a 90 minute massage. Overall this is a property we would definitely return to. As with every place on the island and islands such as this around the world we did have to use bottle water which they supplied every day. We were ten to fifteen minutes from downtown by Golf Cart and we drove both day and night.

Thanks to Victoria House for our wonderful vacation visit. Perfect by every measure. Reservation process was smooth and seamless (despite the fact that we had to reschedule twice for personal reasons). The facility is like a small village, impeccably maintained. Tasteful and comfortable accommodations. Staff was like an extended family. Exceptional service. Thanks to Jacklyn, Elsie, Vanessa, Gabriella, Duane. Josiah, Travis, Ashley, Chan, Gini, Estephan, Amy, and others. Thanks to Luis for seamless coordination of snorkeling trip and visit to Mayan ruins. Dining experience was top notch. Good selection of fresh and artfully prepared meals. Wellness center massage was the best I’ve ever had. Best place to stay in Ambergris Caye.

We stayed at Victoria House in November after spending some time in the mountains of Belize near San Ignacio. While the physical aspects of Victoria House are wonderful and well described in other reviews, I wanted to point out that the service was also impeccable from arrival to departure. Kind, friendly, and knowledgeable just begins to describe it. All the folks were great, and two people on staff really made our stay even more special - Mishel and Duane. Both are on staff in the restaurant and bar.

All the employees werre wonderful, really enjoyed Admiral Nelson's bar. All bartenders were friendly and informative. I would like to say the one bartender Amy was professional, informative, and made some of the best drinks we've ever had, and Ive been to a few. If you get a chance to have cocktails there, hopefully you'll get a chance to meet her. She made us feel very welcome!! Cheers Amy!!!!
