Hotels in Gales Point

"I had a king bed with a balcony. I spent a lot of time looking and listening to the waterfall over the pool. It was so peaceful. The restaurant on site was expensive. However, I learned to walk to walk to their popular restaurants in the area. I wasn’t saving money by doing so, but I wanted to try various places. Midpoint was the restaurant I enjoyed the most. The shopping in the area wasn’t so great, but the hotel is right by the Belize sign. The property is newly renovated and I enjoyed my stay. "

"The property was very well maintained. There was plenty of shade trees in and around the pool area. Check-in was very simple, parked our very large SUV behind the gate which made us feel safe. We walked around the area for dinner and felt safe. We did eat breakfast at the hotel restaurant and was very delicious. The Eggs and Omelet were some of the best we have ever had! The staff all around made us feel comfortable. Please stay at this gem of a hotel!"

"Caves Branch is a beautiful place to stay, in the jungle surrounded by flowers, trees, and native birds. We (2 adults, 2 kids) stayed in one of the Jungle Suites, separated from other suites by trees; very private. It was wonderful to wake up in the morning and hear the birds singing, or listen to the distant sound of howler monkeys at night. There is a small botanical garden on-site, free kayaks that you can borrow to paddle on the river, and just walking the paths is lovely. The foods was incredible. A breakfast buffet with fresh fruit, omelet station, and pastries/pancakes every morning, a different 3-course dinner every night. We have dietary restrictions (1 lactose intolerant person, 2 gluten intolerant people) and we had plenty to eat. Vegetarians also have options, and I think vegans would do ok as well, though with less variety. You'd only be really restricted if you have multiple requirements, e.g. vegan AND gluten free. We did not do the tours the resort offers but heard great things about them from other guests. The only thing I'll note is that it is a combination of luxurious and rustic, as noted on the Caves Branch home website (though not necessarily on Hotels.com). The cabanas have screen walls (with curtains all around that can be closed for privacy), and some large bugs did get inside. There is an AC unit directly over the queen bed that will cool the bed area but not the whole cabin (bc of the screen walls). We loved it but it's not for everyone. "
