We didn’t snorkel, but the water wasn’t very clear. They have kayaks, canoes, wake boards, but no dive shop. We had no problem with the stinky sea grass. We were there is September.

As others have said, the sea weed is scraped from the beach daily. It will accumulate again overnight, but the great staff at the resort cleans it up every morning.

Hi Corina C, we do offer a shuttle from the Belize International Airport, it is called the Muy-Ono Explorer. Please check out our tours we offer on our website under Experiences. If you have any other questions, give Reservations a call at 800-603-7610.

We stayed there in July and we did a little research and found cheaper shuttles that the hotel. Look on Facebook at Julian's Transfer Shuttle service. He lives and is based in Hopkins. He flew into Dangriga and he picked up and took us to the airport for $45. When we got into Hopkins we asked if he'd drive us around town first and show us good restaurants, etc. We made a quick run through town and it was helpful just to give us the lay of the land. (One of Julian's employees actually picked us up). When we went back to airport Julian himself drove us. Same cost ($45). Very nice guy. On the way back he told us he was actually a tour guide (or tour operator) and that he does inland tours for people wanting to go to the jungle, zip lines, etc. Julian's also does shuttle service from BZE to Hopkins. It's a 2.5 hour drive. I think he quoted us a price of $200. Before we went I asked Julian lots of questions about the local area that had nothing to do with his job and he gave me tons of information. I did all my contact to him through Facebook. He usually replied instantly or within a few minutes. We also went into town for our excursions. We used Happy Go Luckie Tours and I recommend them. If you can find another couple to go snorkeling with you it's a little cheaper but we couldn't find anyone on short notice so Luckie took us out alone (just me and my wife). We paid a tad more than what we would have paid for a group tour with someone else but we got to go alone and Luckie stopped at 2 snorkeling places and snorkeled with us and pointed out all sorts of neat stuff and then drove us out to the actually barrier reef so we could see the drop off. Then asked what we wanted to do and took us to a small island to take some pictures. It was just us so he said he'd cater the trip to whatever we wanted to do. We did the half day trip. I think it was about $200ish total for both of us. Most of the other group tours are $75 or 80 per person so I was happy to pay a little more and have a private guide. He had an assistant with him as well. He REALLY knows the area and knows where to go to let you see what you want to see. Offered to let us fish if we wanted but we didn't want to. His wife picked us up at the resort and took us to the marina and brought us back for $7 per person round trip. We saw her a couple of more times in town and she was always pleasant. The resort can schedule trips for you and it seems like a nice outfit they use...but the prices are a bit higher and I think you also pay a service charge. Hopkins is a nice little town that isn't real built up yet. I'm jealous. Wish we were going back.

we did not but what was offered as cooking pans and such was meager.We were there a week and only made breakfast in our villa.On a rainy day we found a bar that had pizza on the other end of town and ordered it to go, then played games all day. The kids were delighted.
