Pool needs paint and advertize cable tv which they don't have only wifi. If you don't subscribe to streaming apps you got no tv. Beach is terrible, you can't swim in it, it's so far from everything you need a car or gulf cart.

Loved the beach front accommodations. Great service and pleasant stay
5-night trip

8/10

Nice setting. Friendly staff. Gem Restaurant is excellent. Unit I was in desperately needed updates to kitchen and bath. No screens, so no listening to the ocean inside. Road to resort is in extremely poor condition.
4-night trip

10/10

Loved the resort. Good pool areas Rooms were clean and well maintained. Security (shout out to Marco) was fantastic. He was so helpful and always met us in the parking lot to make sure we got in okay. If you are an animal lover, there are cats and dogs to keep you company. Friendly, but well behaved. Must have golf cart to get around, but the drive is exciting and you notice something new every time! Locals appreciate a drive to or from work if you have room. Very safe.

Nice property quiet area and relaxing. Food at the restaurant was good. Seaweed on the beach was excessive and not cleaned up even though there was staff to do the job so difficult getting in and out of the water. Extremely expensive for transportation to leave the property

Beautiful and peaceful Resort. I have to say that I really liked the staff especially how friendly and kind they all are. The security people are great they are consistently patrolling premises throughout the night.

The staff was very friendly & helpful. Loved the peaceful, quiet location for a relaxing two night stay on the beach. Gem restaurant provided consistently good food. The full kitchen was great for preparing drinks & snacks.

We loved Sapphire Beach Resort both the staff and property! We could not say better things about both. We definitely will be back.
8-night trip

10/10

It was very relaxing since we were there during the slow season. The food was excellent and the staff was very pleasant and helpful. I would return once the resort adds water taxi service and a small gift shop since we had to walk a mile to get some bug spray (we forgot to bring ours) and would appreciate being able to shop for forgotten items or snacks foods at the resort itself.

Very far north, which meant privacy- which is what we wanted. It almost felt like we had the place to ourselves. Very beautiful! The staff was friendly, and the restaurant pretty good.

Would not recommend- will be staying else where next trip.

10/10

SBR check in was quick and easy, received a welcome drink when we showed up. Gil showed us to our room. Room was clean and comfy pools were refreshing. Shelia at the tiki bar and Edwin and the crew at the Gem Restaurant were awesome. See alot of comments on how far to resort, its really no further then trip to secret beach. Was a great stay and will stay again.
7-night trip

8/10

Staff was excellent. We stayed in a nice unit. Restaurant did not have enough choices. A little bit too far out on a dirt road but it was well worth the price. They were very helpful.
21-night trip

8/10

Amazing views and the staff were very friendly. Mosquitoes are TERRIBLE! This is not an exaggeration at all, but it felt like I got 100 of bites and people were surprised to see. The location is also very far from the center of town. If you plan to stay at the resort, then the distance won’t be an issue.
3-night trip

2/10

Property is way to far from town on unbearable sand roads using only gold carts. No transportation to and from anywhere
6-night trip

10/10

3 lovely dipping pools and a really cute Tiki Bar by the pools. The resort hosted a couple of special dinners highlighting Belizean cuisine. We had a beach view unit which was incredible but all the units were nicely situated- plantation style. Unfortunately Belize is far behind environmentally which has nothing to do with the resort. Practically nothing gets recycled. All the staff were amazing. Such kind and friendly people.
7-night trip

6/10

The property is 15km from San Pedro and about a 40min golf cart ride. So if you want peace and quiet, this is the place. I would strongly suggest renting a golf cart for the week(better pricing) to get around. The location has one restaurant on property with friendly staff. Within walking distance is one other beach bar. I cannot say enough good things about the staff at the resort. They were super helpful and responsive to our needs. The two negatives are the location and secondly the Sandflies which were bad while we were there from Jan 5-19. One final note, before leaving San Pedro hit one of the grocery stores to stock up as the units do have a full kitchen. That way you will have some choice to get you started.
14-night trip

10/10

We enjoyed our time at the property and I personally would live there at the property. :-) The only things that drove me crazy was the grime and rust around the sink and all the mosquitos in the area. Couldn't enjoy the pool because the bugs kept on biting. You are literally attacked by them as soon as you walk out the door. Couldn't swim at the beach because of the seaweed, but there were people attempting to clean it up but you cant control the sea. Also, the location of the property is located in Mexico Rock and about 45 minutes - 1 hour on a golf cart from the water taxi in san Pedro and depending on the weather conditions. Please take that into account when going. Secret beach is about 20-30 minutes by golf cart. Please purchase food in town before coming in as there are no markets and very limited food options in the area. Overall, I would recommend if you want something quiet, secluded, and away from the hustle of the city.
2-night trip

8/10

The property is beautiful, staff was great (friendly and helpful) and the food was delicious. There were just some minor things that kept me from leaving a 5 star review - (1) we asked for extra towels and soap, as we only had one towel for shower and pool, but I had to ask 3 times and when they brought it, it was only the towels, (2) there was no coffee provided in the room so we had to go to town to buy our own - the problem is this resort is pretty far from everything, so it’s not too easy to do that, (3) the headboard on our bed was loose and hit the wall anytime we moved during our sleep and (4) the beach is beautiful, but they need to work on cleaning the seaweed that accumulates.
