Pros:

La réactivité et l'accueil du personnel et bien sûr son emplacement

Cons:

Les douches + WC sont vraiment à proximité des lits, du coup quand une personne prend une douche ou tire la chasse d'eau, on entend tout le bruit et pour se reposer, dormir parfois c'est un peu limite ...

Surprisingly good. The staff is great, the bedrooms are spacious and the bathrooms are clean
Pros:

You get all the facilities of Sandbar AND the bed and bath are better than Sandbar’s

good option for san pedro
Pros:

good option for san pedro. the room was a good size and private bathroom was a bonus, the showers heat was adjustable and really good pressure (which is difficult to find travelling).
you have access to the sandbar pool which is a huge bonus. such a nice pool with great views and sunbeds.

Cons:

we got the double room with private bathroom and it didn’t come with a toaster & kettle like stated which was a bit disappointing.

the kitchen was ok, had all you needed but filled with mosquitos - making it difficult to stay in there for long to cook

Cute place, no beach!
Pros:

Drift Inn is a cute little spot. Good vibes and has everything you need. The free coffee and tea in the morning is a nice bonus. It’s attached to the Sandbar beach hostel, so you are able to use the rooftop infinity pool overlooking the ocean as well as the restaurant and bar areas. It has its own little pool too to hang out after 10pm when sandbar pool closes.

Cons:

This has less to do with the hotel and more to do with San Pedro, but there is no beach. The entire area is primarily docks with nowhere to really swim in the ocean or lay out on the sand. You have to drive 40 min to Secret Beach, which still isn’t really a beach, to lay out on chairs and swim. This was a really big bummer for us.

great location and value, though not completely exceptional
Pros:

Great location. The staff helped me check in early which was very nice. She did have a slight weird attitude when i asked some questions which was weird, but I believe she had good intentions. not a fan of the floors in the room. Although the room was clean, some parts of the room weren't spotless-- like the fridge, for example.

Fantastic stay in a lovely hotel situated in an excellent location. Great staff too
Pros:

Excellent location, great room, loads of room, super comfortable bed and good bathroom. Lovely to be able to help yourself to free water and coffee. Access to sister hotel rooftop pool with stunning sea views. Great staff and a couple of lovely resident cats 😊

Wonderful stay in San Pedro
Pros:

We enjoyed the location being so close to downtown and the beachfront walk to get everywhere. We only rented a golf cart for one day during our stay to explore more of the caye, otherwise we were able to walk. The room was clean & spacious and we enjoyed the communal kitchen for chats with other guests. Friendly, relaxed vibes all around. Thanks for an amazing stay!

Cons:

The A/C was almost too strong! We woke up cold a few mornings, but others may find appreciate this. Otherwise nothing we did not like.

Great value for money
Pros:

General vibe, nice backyard/kitchen area, comfy beds with curtains, light and power socket, spatious room

Cons:

Only one sink area in the room which is annoying if you use the toilets and want to wash your hands while someone is using the sink room

Pros:

Well what can I say. What a fantastic find for the money. Excellent location for food and drink. The guy on reception jazz went above and beyond looking after us. Told us which bars had things going off. Best places and cheapest places to eat. Recommend secret beach which he did actually take us to and spent the day with us on his well deserved day off. Nice touch was the coffee and water machine at reception. The fact that you can use the rooftop pool at the sandbar was fantastic and we didn't know about this until we arrived there. All in all 10 out of 10 holiday.

Cons:

Nothing.

Pros:

Die Lage war sehr gut und zentral. Das Zimmer ist sehr geräumig und verfügt über einen eigenen Kühlschrank (man muss nicht die Gemeinschaftsküche benutzen). Sehr positiv ist, dass man den Pool vom Hostel nebenan benutzen darf, welcher sehr schön ist.

Cons:

Wir waren vor 14.00 Uhr angekommen und konnten keine Minute früher einchecken, da man uns mitteilte das Check-In sei per se erst ab 14.00 Uhr möglich. Von anderen Hostels sind wir uns mehr Flexibilität und Entgegenkommen gewöhnt. Golf Carts findet man überall und zu besseren Preisen wie vom Hostel angeboten.

Wonderful stay in the heart of San Pedro
Pros:

Cute hotel/hostel located in the city of San Pedro with everything within walking distance. Hailey was super friendly and helpful with things to do and see, communication was easy and fast through WhatsApp too. We upgraded from a queen room downstairs to a king room upstairs on-site and extended another night cause the room had all we need, good bed, fridge, a small balcony, and a very good hot shower! Water and coffee was provided as well as beach blanket rentals.

Cons:

Nothing really, it’s an authentic and cool place to stay at!
