The staff paid close attention to detail. They arranged everything for me, from the pick-up service to the golf cart waiting at the villa. The villa was spotless, and they managed the mosquitoes effectively. When I had a problem with one of the fire alarms, they responded promptly to fix it. I highly recommend this villa—it's definitely worth the price.
Our family of 4 thoroughly enjoyed our week at Hol Chan Reef Resort & Villas. The pool and beach area are beautiful, well equipped with kayaks, paddle boards, corn hole, bocci ball, and hammocks giving lots to do. We had a wonderful fishing excursion booked through the resort & the Hula bar right down the street cooked all of our fish perfectly! It’s a nice quiet area which was perfect for really unplugging and relaxing. We will be back!

Resort Stay Review – San Pedro, Belize
We had a great experience staying at this resort on the south side of San Pedro.
What we loved:
• The kitchen was fully equipped, which made our stay very convenient and comfortable.
• The staff was extremely friendly and helpful throughout our visit.
• The views were beautiful and exactly as shown in the photos—no surprises, just as advertised.
Location:
• The resort is located on the quieter south side of the island, which we really enjoyed.
• It’s about a 20-minute golf cart ride to downtown San Pedro, making it a nice balance between peaceful and accessible.
Overall:
We would definitely recommend this property to anyone looking for a relaxing stay with great views and a comfortable setup.

Great accommodations, the grounds, room and communications were great! It is a bit of a golf cart ride to town, which makes it quieter and more private. Great place for families.

We had the best time at Hol Chan. The staff was very accommodating and helpful. The resort was small but nice and quiet, easy to get to, easy to get around, nice small beach and pools. We went as a family of 5 and it was perfect. The rooms are huge and have everything you need.

The place was exactly as described. Dennis, Edward, and Richard were extremely helpful with everything (renting a cart which you need, excursions, and answering questions).
We really liked it and hope to return!
Relaxing family time. If you are looking for a top notch base for your San Pedro vacation, Hol Chan is fantastic. Beautiful, clean and great staff. On the quiet side of the island away from the hustle and bustle but still near town via golf cart. Swim up pool was perfect. Amazing personal deck with views that can’t be beat.

A clean and somewhat quiet resort in a lovely area of south of town. We had everything we needed provided for us in the villa. The pools and loungers were right outside our room. The pool bartender, Edwin, was an added bonus with his craft cocktails and friendly service. Highly recommend Hol Chan Reef Resort & Villas

Very nice resort. Very clean and well appointed and equipped rooms. Good pools and pleasant oceanfront, but ocean swimming limited. Surroundings a little rough and main road condition could be better but there was a lot of construction and heavy truck traffic going on.

It was a last minute trip and we could not have been happier with our choice to stay at Hol Chan Villas. The place was amazing and Sandra went above and beyond to make sure we were well taken care of. Top notch customer service. She even helped arranged to help have a chef to come and cook for us.
