The cabana was clean and well maintained. Excellent communication and suggestions from the host and the property manager and maintenance man were helpful and friendly. Marto even showed us how to cut open coconuts to get to the coconut water inside and gave us some to drink. Wonderful location - would absolutely recommend staying here!

A perfect, private spot on the beach

We had a great time and enjoyed the views and easy access to the sea. Just a short drive into town gave us a huge taste of the Garifuna culture in Hopkins.

A little piece of paradise

We stayed here for a week in December and absolutely loved it. The place is spotless and private, you even have your own beach. Even though the water was a bit choppy, we swam every day - what a treat! The town of Hopkins is wonderful, the people there are the nicest you will ever meet. After looking around a bit I believe that Jan’s cabana is by far the best place that you can stay. It is very reasonably priced for how awesome it is. Highly recommended!

Exactly what we were hoping for

We had a marvelous time. The house was exactly what we were hoping for. It had everything we needed. The beach was quiet and beautiful. We enjoyed watching and listening to the birds in the morning while having coffee and juice on the deck. We used the air conditioning at night as it was very warm and humid while we were there. The many wonderful restaurants and activities were close and accessible. We can't wait to come back and would definitely stay here again.

Our morning coffees where amazing enjoying beautiful sunrises almost every day. Great neighbors also new friends. You can't beat the relaxed lifestyle of Hopkins Belize. We will be back soon.

Great place if you want peace and quiet

Really loved this place. We went swimming almost everyday. We used the bikes almost everyday to ride to town which takes about 20 minutes and half of the way is a dirt road. It is too far to walk to town and that is where most of the restaurants are. There are two places you can eat/drink that are in walking distance from this house which is located in a neighborhood. If you want to stay away from the hustle and bustle this is the place. We did several tours while we in Hopkins. We had an amazing time with lucky where I went snorkeling and my husband went spearfishing. Definitely one of the highlights of our trip.

Awesome beach property south of Hopkins

We loved the house and and waterfront location. The water is very shallow so you can walk far out into the water. There were tons of sand dollars on the ocean floor. Two bikes are provided but the dirt road is rough and it is some distance to get to Hopkins so we didn’t use them. It’s a fairly easy drive into Hopkins for food and entertainment. The amenities were nice including owner providing two 5 gallon jugs of drinking water. Air conditioning present but we chose to throw open all the windows and enjoy the breeze. Would definitely stay here again if back in the area.

Jan's Cabana Was Wonderful

Overall this property exceeded all expectations. There were a few kitchen items that could be updated because my partner likes to cook but we made do. The bed was comfortable and the view of the beach was spectacular. I wish I had known about the sand fleas and could have sprayed up because they liked my pheromones and I came home with many itchy bites. There were many excellent restaurants in town. The Paddle Board for lunch was one of our favorites and pizza at the Driftwood. Snorkeling was a blast and we rented a car (highly recommended) so were able to drive around the country and experience all there was to see. What we found about the town of Hopkins was there were many different cultures - the Garifuna being one of our favorites. Be sure you experience the Garifuna drumming. We will surely be back to visit as it was truly a Paradise.

Belize Anniversary Vacation

As I wrote in the Guest Journal in the cabana, Jan's Beach Cabana was great! Tasteful decor, very comfortable and stocked with everything we needed to cook, etc. It was a pleasure working with Cheryl, the Property Manager, who was very responsive. The major issue that we had to contend with during our entire stay was the "sargassum" all along the shore. The water was contaminated, had an awful odor (we bought scented candles) and we were unable to enjoy the otherwise beautiful Caribbean Sea. The shore on each side of the cabana was also full of trash--mostly plastics--that had washed up. To compensate we spent a lot of money on people to take us on a speedboat to the Cays 8 miles from the Belize shore. We wish we had known about this problem in advance.

Response from VrboOwner on 13 June 2022
Robert, thankyou for your review. We are glad to know you enjoyed the house. We are sorry for the unfortunate issue with the sargassum seaweed. This is unfortunately out of our control and is something that effects the whole Caribbean at unpredictable times. There was no issues when you booked and the nature of the situation is that it can be here today and gone tomorrow so we try to explain the situation and do our best to make sure guests have all the options available to enjoy their holiday. There is plenty of things to do around Hopkins and resort pools available to day users when the seaweed situation is at its worst. The ocean plastics is another issue that comes with the seaweed mats and we do try our best to keep the property clean but we cannot do much about the trash that impacts neighbouring properties unfortunately. Currently the sargassum is minimal and the beach and waters are enjoyable. We appreciate your business.
