First Day here and in love with place! Friendliest staff I’ve ever experienced anywhere! Captain Larry made our day! The ceviche at the Dock bar is to die for! Hopkins village is charming and lots of places to eat. Looking forward to a week of Bliss!

Did the full day fishing tip with Kenrick and Alex, they were amazing guides constantly trying to get us on the fish. They went above and behind, diving for lobsters, crabs and conch for us and made an amazing lunch with it on a scenic island for our group. Highly recommend both of them, both of them were a joy to get to know and spend the day with.

Accommodations are amazing the food was fantastic, the best mixed drinks around. Super quiet resort with a lot to offer super kid friendly and if you need anything at all just find Captain Larry! My wife and I can’t wait to come back on our next trip to Belize.

I will never forget my honeymoon at the Jaguar Reef resort in Belize! I can honestly say it was one of the greatest experiences in my life! The trips, the food, the people, from the piña coladas to the friendly service, I would recommend this place to anyone and hope to make it back there again someday.

Paradise is the only word you need to describe the Jaguar Reef experience. Starting with one of the most beautiful places on earth and add the opportunity to share that with some of the friendliest, most generous people I've met, it's just a wonderful vacation. Special thanks to Stephanie! We will be back!
