A good location. Unfortunately, no TV in the rooms. One coffee pot available in lobby each morning, but no coffee once this single pot was empty. Warm/hot water intermittent in shower, cold 9 times out of 10. A shame.

Great budget stay in Caye Caulker
Booked the Plaza Hotel as a budget option for our family trip (2 adults, 1 child). The room & common areas were clean and welcoming. AC worked great. Loved having thr balcony! No TV in rooms, but WiFi was good! Staff were all so friendly & helpful. Also great having coffee available in the mornings! The location is away from the main strip so a bit quieter, but still walkable to lots of great restaurants, shops & the water!

the over all hotel is in vert poor condition. reletivly to the other hotels you have so many better ways to spend your money. the cooling system smells, there is no quiet and therewas some one else's stuff in our room when we came in it. if it was possible to just walk away we would have done it. just bad. so so so bad.

Be aware of this hotel. Stealing!
Stealing! Do not stay in this hotel! During checking in we were informed to keep all important document, money and expensive belonging in the room safe, than we were asked to sign the waiver that hotel is not responsible for missing or stealing in the room, after that we were informed that we MUST leave room key each time when we leaving the room (JOKE). We checked in, we left everything in the room (important belingings in the safe) and we went out for the dinner. On the way back to the hotel we noticed that the guy from reception is standing in front of the hotel, when he saw us approaching he disappeared, we noticed that something is not right. We ran in to the lobby he wasn't there, I ran on the second floor to my room and I met another person near walking by my door, I asked where is the guy from reception he said he's fixing some problem in 3rd floor (very weird), 5 second ago he was in fron of the hotel. We came in to our room and the safe WAS OPENED!!! Money was missing. We went to the reception report and the guy who was (fixing on yhe 3rd floor) was seating at his desc! We told him what's going on, and we requested to see surveillance video, he said that today they have problems with cameras and nothing was recorded. We told him we are going to call police but he said that nothing we can do because we sign waiver that hotel is not responsible for missing things in your room. Unbelievable!

Hello, we do suggest that guests use the in room safes to hold anything valuable and we suggest guests leave the keys as there is a fee to change locks if you lose the key. At check in we inform you of several rules, but we do not force anyone to do something they don’t want to. You didn’t have to leave the keys if you felt you would not lose the keys. I wish that you had asked to speak to the manager so that we could have dealt with this in person and not online. I hear your side of the story but my employee says it is untrue. We do not have any issues with the hallway cameras and the bedrooms do not have any cameras. I even wish you had called the police so we could have actually dealt with what you claim instead of having only your side of the story online. This definitely warrants asking to speak to management and I am sorry you did not. Please let me know if there is anything else I can assist with.

Great hotel near the port. We stayed in a room with 2 double beds with balcony. The linens were clean and the room was clean too. We didn't get any hot water but it was ok as we didn't need it due to the heat. The staff was nice and helpful. We got there early at 9:30am and they kept our luggage so that we could go for our snorkel tour. When we came back in the afternoon they already took our luggage to our room. It was very nice of them. Check-in and check-out were quick. Only issue I noticed was the lack of electric outlets to charge phones. Overall, a good experience.

This is one of the bigger hotels on the island but it’s very small compared to the resorts on San Pedro. Located right in the middle of town, you can see either side of the island from the hotel’s many decks and rooftop. You have to drop off your key and pick it back up when you come and go but I kind of liked this because I could just head out with one of their beach towels and not worry about keeping track of a key. Overall loved our stay here. Oh and the coffee is AMAZING!

If you are an adventurer who only needs a clean place to crash with a good bed, clean shower, and good A/C, then this hotel is perfect for you. If you are a hang out at the resort kind of traveler, then pass on this one and book one of the more expensive hotels on the island with more amenities. No TV in your room, but free purified water for all guests in the lobby.

Really like the property!! Was clean and cool. The door only locked with a key so it was very tricky getting the door open. They wanted you to leave your jey at the front desk if you left which was sketchy so we didnt. Had a nice fridge, great wifi and a nice bathroom. Way better than Enjoy hotel where we stayed the first few nights

Thank you for the feedback, we are delighted to have made your stay a comfortable one. With your response we are able to move towards improvements. In regards to the key, we ask that the key is left at the front desk to safeguard you from loosing it and that way we won't have to charge you but of course it was optional. This was explained at check-in, However we will reinforce this with our front desk staff in the case that it was not explained clear. Thank you once again and we hope to make your next stay an even better one. :)

Great, central place to stay in Caye Caulker
Amazing location, our room was clean, a/c was good and the black out curtains were great. There was a fridge which was useful. The staff were friendly and helpful. Coffee and tea making facilities downstairs every morning. The only downsides were; 1) The WiFi was terrible on the 3rd floor, pretty much couldn’t access it at all from the room. 2) A small thing but there was a sign in the bathroom about reusing towels to save water (which is great), we hung our towels up everyday as we didn’t feel they needed replacing but they were changed daily anyway.
