Iguana Reef Inn

We absolutely loved our time at the Iguana Reef Inn. We spent most of the day enjoying the pool, beach, and paddle boarding. This was our 1st destination out of 3 and it started our vacation off with a bang. It was quiet, secluded, but still close enough to everything. We enjoyed feeding the sting rays even thought it quickly becomes a tourist attraction and very crowded with non hotel guest. The owner was amazing and gave my kids fish to feed them. The beach bar also makes amazing drinks. An added bonus was being able to get our clothes laundered before the next leg of our trip.

This hotel is exactly what we needed for our trip to CC. Our room had a safe and a minifridge which we used. The hotel supplied us with pool/beach towels. Our kids used the pool almost daily. We used their bikes and paddleboards at least 1-2x during our stay (we used them both to go out to the Split). Note, they did not have kids' bikes to borrow, but the front desk directed us to Anwar Tours to get a kid bike for our daughter. The beach and pier was so fun for adults and kids. Our kids played with other kids and we talked to other tourists. We saw seahorses, sting rays, crocodile, nurse sharks, eels, lots and lots of different fish. While we were paddleboarding one morning, dolphins swam up to us!! I've read negatives about their breakfast but I thought it was fine. And if it was not enough, then we walked out to get fryjacks or baked goods from a number of shops.|The only negatives were that we can hear people walking above us easily so bring ear plugs if you are sensitive to that. Also, the toilet does not flush very well, but this is probably not a hotel thing - I find this commonly in other parts of the world compared to America. |Finally I cannot give enough praise to the staff and owner at this hotel. Every staff member (from the lady who cleaned my room to the guys who worked the front desk) were so nice and helpful. Every morning I see 2-3 men cleaning the walkways and the pool - and their hardwork really shows. And Eric, the owner, is a wealth of information. If there was a fish I needed to identify, he knew what it was. He tried to help my husband spot reptiles and snakes (although a snake sighting was fail). He let my daughter "help" him feed the stingrays. He hung out with the guests at the beach and on the pier at night. Some of the staff would join too. It feels very inviting when you can hang out with the staff and the hotel owner and just shoot the breeze. |If you are on the fence about staying here, stop waffling and just book it!! You will not be sorry.

I loved my time at the Iguana Reef Inn. It is one of the best spot on the Caye Caulker island. The rooms are clean and spacious. The hotel has many accommodations you can use (bikes, gym, paddle boards, etc). The staff is very helpful and friendly. The best thing about this place is the different animals you can see/feed. In one spot you can see nurse sharks, stingrays, aquatics birds, sea horses and even a crocodile!! The owner, Eric, is passionate and very caring about the animals coming on his property. 10/10 would recommend.

We decided to extend our stay in Belize from our son's wedding in San Pedro a couple of more days to see Caye Caulker. This place did not disappoint! We loved everything about the Iguana Reef Inn. Perfect location within walking distance to everything, the rooms were great, the staff exceptional, and the sunset views perfect! I would recommend to anyone!

The Iguana Reef Inn is such a great hotel. Beautiful views and great, friendly staff. I love that there is a pool, plus the beach is just footsteps away. The beach is full of lounge chairs, a bar, and has fun hammocks and swings in the water for you to relax on. It’s a full experience that is so fun. I love that there’s a sting ray feeding every night. It was so exciting to see them swim up every night. Quite a few fish too! The sea horse nursery was on the empty side when I was there, but luckily I got to see one! I love that they provide you with all these wonderful experiences. It was a great location. Although most people seem to take taxis, my partner and I walked everywhere and it was so easy to get around. Not too far from The Split and many restaurants. They also also gave us new towels and fresh bedding every day which I wasn’t expecting because we would often leave our hotel late. In the US, if you miss the morning cleaning window, you don’t get new towels and sheets. That was a nice surprise! They also have plenty of beach towels and even sunscreen or aloe if you need it. Was a very lovely and nice stay.

Iguana Inn has a charming cottage vibe, and my room was clean and comfortable. The complimentary bikes made exploring Caye Caulker easy and fun. The location is fantastic, with quick access to the pool and the beautiful beach and bar area. Whether lounging by the pool or enjoying cocktails by the shore, every moment felt like paradise.

Superb hotel! The staff was great and really helpful. The owner Eric was super nice and explained to us a lot about the marine life around and showed us how to be respectful around it. The installations to see the marine life were beautiful. The location of the hotel is perfect.
