Latitude 17 Cabanas & Rooms

Latitude 17 was great. The location was very convenient. There were also bicycles to use (free of charge) which made it very easy to travel around Hopkins. The fridge, outdoor kitchen and coffee maker meant we it were able to relax and make a lovely breakfast ourselves when we fancied. There were plenty of restaurant choices nearby though! The rooms themselves were very comfortable and modern with AC, ceiling fan, large shower, comfortable beds, and insect nets over the doors and windows. Wade was very accommodating, friendly and had some great recommendations for where to go around the area. Thank you for helping to make our stay in Hopkins a really great experience!

We had an amazing stay. The owner is a person with a big heart and this you can recognize in every edge of the cabanas. We were so happy about the outdoor kitchen, fully equipped. We haven’t known this before :) And thanks Wade for the unforgettable opportunity that you gave as on two wheels 🤩

We had a brief but terrific stay at Latitude 17. The rooms are well-appointed and spacious. We weren't cooking while we were in Hopkins, but the room was thoroughly outfitted with everything you'd need if you were. Also, we really appreciated the refillable water station in the room to help cut down on single use plastic bottles. Wade, the owner, has a wealth of knowledge and great recommendations for the area. I would definitely stay here again.

The suite was a great size and the rooms were clean and cozy and in a great central location with walkability to many of the restaurants in Hopkins and right across the street from the beach. From the moment we arrived the owner Wade, met us at check in and instantly made us feel welcome! Overall each of the staff members were very helpful and knowledgeable about the area letting us know great local places to eat and visit. I stayed in the 2bedroom suite and the rooms were very clean and well stocked. The bikes available were very useful for getting around town and were in great condition. I would absolutely suggest catching a sunset from the lookout porch, where they have a full 360 view of the village, beach, and wetlands as far as the eye can see. I absolutely plan to come back to Hopkins Village and will be looking forward to staying at Latitude 17 again.

If you're going to Hopkins, stay at this place! The rooms are very nice and clean, we really enjoyed the outdoor kitchen and chilling in the hammock. But the real reason to come here is the hospitality. Wade is a great host who knows how to make sure his guests have a good time. He is a great help for planning your activities and is always in the mood for a nice chat. We had a hard time organizing a trip to the cockscomb basin because the roads were really muddy. In the end, Wade took us there and did the hike with us. This was one of the most remarkable experiences in Belize. We've had such a great time in Hopkins. Thanks for everything Wade, if we ever return to the village, we'll make sure to stay with you again :-)

Wade made our trip to Hopkins. His knowledge and tips were fantastic. He also has free bicycles to explore on and the rooms are just across from the beach. it is situated just by the main crossroads to get on/ off the bus if you travel that way. His recommendations for bars and restaurants are spot on due to him living there for so long. We felt very safe and the rooms were very comfortable. Try and watch sunset on the roof it is spectacular.

We started by having to find it....no address given, just the street name. Key was not in lock box and when Wade (assuming he is local PM) brought the key, he was rude and quite arrogant. Wade should not be working with the public!||The rental is convenient to things in town & beach but your bed will be about 20 feet off the main drag which has lots of traffic (especially motorcycles). Even with ear plugs it was difficult to sleep. Expect the town to start waking up at around 5:30 am. When the water jug (which wasn't completely full when we arrived) emptied, we asked Wade for a refill. He kept walking and said "call Vacasa". We reached out to Vacasa who said they would take care if it (this was in the am). At dinnertime, when no water was provided & we had no communication, we reached out again only to be told then that this is OUR responsibility. Anyway, don't expect water even if it is pictured in the listing. ||6 weeks on the road this winter...only rental we were disappointed it! If you can find different rental in Hopkins, DO! It's a lovely village!

Room was spacious, clean, and comfortable, and even though the property is off of the main road it was private and quiet. Wade himself really is what makes this property shine though. His hospitality was above and beyond, sharing with us great recommendations for things to do and see, and inviting us up to his home's rooftop patio to watch the beautiful sunset over the mountains. The passion he has for his guests and his community are apparent, and you can tell he puts a lot of pride into ensuring his guests are comfortable and happy. And even though a ton of wonderful restaurants are within easy walking distance, we really appreciated that Wade had bicycles available so we were able to check out more of lovely Hopkins. Highly recommend. Thanks, Wade!
