It's a wonderful place with a great owner and a great staff, but it's a rough ride to get here and there are no other restaurants nearby.

The staff was amazing! And I loved that it was an adult only plus a small resort so it was like having a private beach experience.

The staff was great and the rooms were nice, but the location is so far from where you want to be and the “beach” is not great- crunchy shells and murky water. Should have stayed closer to the city.

We loved staying at Playa De Sala the staff was amazing and we can’t wait to go back this year. The restaurant has some of the best food on the Island and the staff is extremely helpful and kind. Raffee In particular was a pleasure to work with as I enjoyed fishing in the mornings off of the kayaks provided at the resort, while kayaks are a bit dated he was more than accommodating to make sure the kayak was ready to go for my early morning fishing adventures in Tarpon bay before the wife awake from her well deserved rest. I always caught fish in the morning and enjoyed the physical excercise of paddling around the bay. Can’t wait to return to see our friends and enjoy the tranquility and exquisite food. It’s at the end of the island so a golf cart is paramount to getting around, plus it’s a hoot to visit other locations on the island with your own golf cart. Would highly recommend as we are no returning visitors San Pedro and the Playa De Sala resort.

The staff is sooooo amazing!! They are the best part of this stay!! The beach and water is not what you come to Belize for. The node if transportation on the island is golf carts and with that being said, the flooding and dirt roads to get there is awful!! We went through 2 golf carts. I wish we could move the staff and the hotel onto the pavement and beach side!

Our stay was good. Melissa was a great host even though that was not her job but she made us feel welcome and assisted us in what we needed. Jeremy and Sam were great and very attentive. The so called property manager I think his name was Brandon was ok need more training. Now the real kicker the owner was on site didn’t acknowledge herself as such talk to us and didn’t ask how our stay and we were really the only guest at the resort. It could be better.

This property is in an area of the island that is a newer area being built on southern part about 1 mile from downtown but very easily accessible by golfcart. Each of the 5 rooms is very suitable for couples as it is a couples resort very quiet and the staff is top notch absolutely make you feel like your family

Loved this place. But the roads need work. And there needs to be a real manager onsite each day. There was no manager Sat or Sun. They need TV access. The staff - hotel, bar, and housekeeping - are excellent!

Property management is very involved and wants to make your experience special. They do an excellent job arranging private tours and accommodating whatever it is you’re interested in doing. Food is great. It’s far from the main shops and restaurants but we rented a golf cart (you need to to get around the island anyway) and it was so nice to be away from the noise and crowd.
Zoe

Everything was great! From the staff to the owner....just get clear clarification on the golf carts....

Well was clean a nice hotel only bad thing was that the hotel was on the other side of town but I gues this was my mistake for not checking the exes t location . Very friendly crew and the food was berry good as well . The bar on the roof top was amazing . The beach wasn’t good as all the beaches in San Pedro . It appear the only good beach in the island it’s secret beach . The hotel beach was clean a quiet but lots of sea grass as everywhere except secret beach. I didn’t dig the toilet part and they tried to put some charges on my bill when we ware leaving and I already payed cash for them . Maybe a simple mistake . Over all … depends what you looking for.

The property was in a very quiet area. The staff was beyond amazing and friendly. I would have preferred to be a little closer to town personally. The pool is very small and halfway under the shade. The website makes it look a lot bigger so it is deceiving. The continental breakfast that was included only consisted of a plate of scrambled eggs with a piece of toast and a few pieces of fruit along with one cup of tea or coffee. If you wanted more tea or coffee they charged you. The water isn’t swimmable. It is dark and murky. The room we were in (Wood Room) was tiny and the toilet wasn’t private. It was inside a wooden framed area that didn’t go all the way to the ceiling so you had no privacy at all. Melvin, Julie and Nathaniel were amazing and so helpful during our stay.
