Hotel Del Rio

Super friendly and helpful staff, great location for walking to town, restaurants and dive shops. Adorable and friendly kitties that our daughters loved wandering the property and sunning on our porch.

This hotel is perfect for us, except for the nightly noise coming from the beach bar, Wayos, almost directly across the road from Hotel Del Rio. The noise starts around 8 PM every night and doesn't end until midnight or after. We stayed in the Cabana Casita which is a single, hut style room made of natural materials. The room is clean but sparse with a regular sized bed, one night stand table and a couple of built in shelves. It has a mini fridge, and you can ask for a coffee maker if it's not already in the room. The bathroom is small but usable and clean. The location is great if you don't mind walking a few blocks to the main town center area. Optionally you can rent a golf cart and drive. We prefer to walk the beach towards town. They have a dock with chairs and a limited swimming area close by. Restaurant options are close, just down the beach from the hotel. I think that most adventurous travelers will find this a great little gem of a hotel and enjoy their stay. The hotel staff are amazing people! On the other hand, if you're more used to 4 star hotels, you may find this place a bit on the too rustic side.

Spare but adequate and functional facilities with friendly and accommodating staff.

Love the location of this hotel. Away from the noise and hustle and bustle of down town. The rooms were very comfortable and well appointed. There was a really nice coffee shop in the grounds. Great coffee. The staff were amazing. So knowledgeable

Review of Hotel del Rio, Belize I recently stayed at Hotel del Rio in Belize, and it was an absolutely amazing experience! The location is perfect—right on the beach, offering breathtaking views, and close to numerous fantastic restaurants like Cool Beans, Palapa Bar, and Nutty Crab. Christine, the manager, was an incredible host. She went above and beyond to ensure we had a seamless stay. From helping us set up golf carts and arranging tours to providing excellent recommendations for restaurants and activities, she truly knows everything about the area. You could reach out to her at any time, and she’d respond promptly and helpfully. The hotel itself is charming, with a rustic vibe that fits perfectly with the beachside ambiance. Everything was spotless, from the bedsheets to the towels, and the attention to cleanliness was evident. The entire staff, including the security guard, was warm and welcoming, making us feel right at home. The area around the hotel is safe and convenient, with plenty of dining options and easy access to the main attractions. Being right on Boca del Rio was such a bonus—it made exploring the town a breeze. If you’re looking for a clean, friendly, and perfectly located place to stay in Belize, I highly recommend Hotel del Rio. I can’t wait to return!

Great stay Lovely unique small hotel by the sea, close to restaurants and diving shops and walking distance to the center. The staff were friendly and helpful, especially Christine, we got good tips from her and she booked us a tour and a golf cart. We warmly recommend you if you are not comfortable in a large modern hotel.
