NO PETS - Please NO pets. Sometimes guests are allergic to pets and we would like to respect all guests who stay with us.
IMPORTANT - The main living area is on the second floor and has stairs going up to the large front door. From June to November this is Belize's rainy season, as well as the seaweed, Sargassum, can come to shore in high quantities. The Caribbean including Belize also has mosquitos, No-see-ums and doctor flies, which a good bug spray will protect you from. Of course, nature is unpredictable and sometimes the conditions can be so optimal and then sometimes it can be rainy or a lot of seaweed. There are plenty of jungle excursions during those days such as Mayan temples, waterfalls and cave kayaking/tubing etc. Once you check in we will give you all of the tips to have the best stay possible navigating Mother Nature's unpredictability. Of course, we cannot control Mother Nature ... we can only send her a memo to be on her best behavior for your arrival :):)

Perfect location for our adventures
We loved staying here for our family vacations. It’s right on the water and the ocean is warm and shallow, perfect for the kids to swim and play. It’s a close location to explore the jungle and take a boat out to the Cayes. We cooked several meals at home and had everything we needed. We also enjoyed a few restaurants at the resorts nearby and in the Hopkins Village.

Great house in a great town
We loved staying at Belizean Bliss and in Hopkins. Hopkins has so much great food and nice people (much nicer than the people we met in Hawaii last year). The house was super clean with a nice entry room/porch and many windows overlooking the sea.Many of the knick-knacks, throws, and paintings in the house are also available at the big gift store in town, which was a great local touch.If we changed one thing about our trip it would have been to drive ourselves less, rent a golf cart to go to town, and have local drivers to drive us to farther destinations - the roads really are chaotic with varying speeds, horses, kids, speed ramps, etc.

Sunrises Galore!
If a person enjoys beautiful sunrises this is the place to be. If you are looking for a home away from home Kathy’s home has everything you need. This is a very well equipped home with all of he kitchen appliances you need including food processor, microwave, juicer, coffee makers and bbq. Although the home is air conditioned, we found that with the continual warm breeze off the sea it was rarely used. The ocean was very nice to swim in but one has to walk out a few hundred feet before the water gets deep enough to swim in. The shallowness is great for children though. One problem was the very rough road to get to the village for shopping. Whenever we had to head into Hopkins village (10 minutes away) one had to be patient with all the potholes. Janette, the property manager was always very responsive to any issues we had (which were few). Also, the neighbours who own the adjacent property, were friendly although we tried to respect their privacy. We would definitely stay at Kathy’s again if we return to Hopkins.
Easy to find right on the water! Beautiful set up. Nice beds! Feels like home!

Awesome Home
This home was amazing! Everything you need is provided! My only disappointment was with the weather, air, and ocean conditions. Fires burning in Mexico and Belize are causing smoky air pollution and limited visability. The sargassum is thick all along the coast of Belize. There was no getting in the ocean without a boat to take you out past the sargassum. The host graciously hired someone to rake the sargassum, but the next day it was 2 feet thick again. It was HOT and HUMID and STINKY!!! Most restaurants and shops in Hopkins are not air-conditioned. Luckily, we had this beautiful air-conditioned home to retreat to after trying to venture out!

Belizean Bliss Villa
Very nice house. Water was pretty shallow off shore, nice for getting cooled off. Had a couple of problems, toilet im master was clogged when we got there, but was taken care of pretty quickly. Frig decided to quit working midway thru stay, but was replace as soon as was possible since it was between xmas and new year. It was not a major problem for us except not being able to keep our beer cold. A couple of coolers and a few bags of ice got us thru.

Much better than even the pictures. What a bargain!
We went during the rainy season and took a chance. The views are spectacular. The house is epic. A bit of seaweed which is everywhere in the Caribbean. The steps into the ocean were great and we just walked right into the ocean everyday.
Rainy days we explored the temples and sunny days we went diving and island hopping.
Property Manager, Janette, Alex and the owner went way beyond for everything we needed. Seriously, we're staying for a month next time.

Vibrant and Lush Belizean Vibes
An absolute dream! The breeze from the ocean under the full moon was so peaceful, I could stare at it for hours. I also did yoga on the porch to watch the sunrise in the morning which was the perfect way to start a day of jungle adventures. Yeah, that's Belize to me. The entire place has beautiful unique local art capturing the wildlife. It was so romantic for us to have dinners watching the ocean. They went over and beyond for us to help with planning excursions and finding what we needed locally from the store and markets. There are very helpful QR codes for instructions on all the appliances and electronics. I've never seen that before and it very much appreciated. All-in-all such a great place and a friendly host who truly cares about your time here. I will be back very soon :)

Perfect family beach getaway
Belizean Bliss was perfect for our family weekend getaway. Kathy & Janette answered all our questions and we were really taken care of. There was plenty of space for all 4 of us. Our oldest had one bedroom and we had the other. We were so grateful for the pack-n-play for our youngest. The kitchen had everything we needed. The high chair really came in handy. The enclosed porch had the most wonderful view of the ocean and we enjoyed the bright sunrise. The kids played in the sand while we lounged next to them. We were given the hint to rub coconut oil on us to prevent bug bites, which worked. We did not see any mosquitos. The stairs provided easy access to the water. The water was very warm, like a bath, and shallow, gradually becoming deeper. There was some sea grass the first few feet (not as annoying as the Pacific kelp) and then crystal clear water so we could see the fish and sea life. We have fallen in love with Belize and this place! We will be back!
