    This is a very nice, but totally isolated resort. What they didn't happen to mention was there are no tv's, no cable or phones. Thank goodness for wi-fi. Additionally, the bugs are horrendous. I left with no less than 60 bites, all over me. The one restaurant on site is quite limited, and getting to the main town is a roller coaster ride in a golf cart. Maybe in a few years, once everything is up to speed I would try it again, but for now I wouldn't recommend it. It's like going to Gilligans Island.

    Very remote resort without much to do. Nothing around except El Secreto and Chill & Chat place. The waters are extremely shallow, since the reef comes too close to the beach. You can't swim even from the dock. They offer snorkeling and short-board paddling. They are doing their best to clean the sea grass. The property otherwise is nice. Nice grounds. 3 swim pools. Only 1 restaurant with limited selection. Nice villas with upgraded kitchen appliances. No TV!!! You can rent movies. I switched resorts after 3 nights. If you love total isolation and just lying by the pool or on the beach all day long, then this is for you. )))

    Blown away by the 5 stars on this site someone must be paying off people. The condos are nice but let’s discuss the resort. They don’t bother to inform people of the sea grass when it’s washing ashore hard or the crusty brown color of the beach you can’t enjoy whatsoever. Then the golf carts they rent you are junk as our 7 day vacation ended with having our 3rd cart because the other two broke down in 4 days and the 3 rd cart had no brakes. They don’t offer help or refunds for lost time. Then let’s talk about their excursions desk which signed us up for boat fishing the reef with old poles that were broken and we make shifted them to work and then you catch baby snapper. Wow for the amount of money you would expect much better. Then the owner of the guide service who also runs the resort shuttle charges a fortune for a ratty van ride in a vehicle that should be put in a recycle bin and stops by the worst store in town for you to buy groceries because he knows the people. The management is not helpful and will try and over charge you for things you never order or use so watch your bill. There is no TV except 20 year old movies that work half the time. If you plan on spending a lot of money for no use this is the place for you. If you are on a budget and want to see Belize go to St. Ignacio, Placencia, or Punta Gorda and get your moneys worth as you will not see garbage on the entire beach. Good luck

    Ask questions and make sure to to get food supplies in town. It is very laid-back. The people are great and the excursions are even better.

    Very nice setting. 2 bedroom was very roomy, good food, excellent wifi. Far from town - 9 miles takes 45 minutes due to roads. Lots of bugs on the beach (sand flies) which affect some people more than others (9 out of 12 of us had lots of itchy bites)

    Great staff and ample ameneties Units are clean and comfortable. Grounds are well kept. Restaurant servers good food, but dosent have that 'ambiance' unless you catch them when they are serving dinner by the pool.

    Location is wonderfully secluded, making for the perfect relaxing vacation destination. I would recommend a water taxi, or regular taxi, unless you're OK with driving on some back roads that aren't paved.

    The best part of this resort though is their staff. Everyone is very hospitable, accommodating to food allergies (Celiac in our party), and flexible with answering any questions and requests.

    The Dive shop, No Worries Dive Shop, on location here is staffed with some great instructors for PADI open water certification. They're flexible with schedule and always put your comfort and safety ahead of everything else. We had an initial hiccup with one of our first dives, but they let us take a day break in our training and then start up again. Can't thank them enough for teaching us in such a calm and clear way to get over that mental hurdle.

    Overall, it is great resort and I look forward to returning one day.

    Beautiful beach and cute cabanas. Good food in restaurant. Road to resort in a golf cart, with all the rain they've had is somewhat of an adventure

    Absolutely fantastic! Very tranquil, peaceful, and serene. Remotely situated away from the town center. But that's easy enough to get to via water taxi, golf cart, or local taxi. It takes about 30-40 min. All the staff at Sapphire are available to assist you with all of your needs. From the restaurant on site, to the management, and the No Worries day trips activities.
    There's kayaks, paddle board's, snorkeling, bicycles all free and available daily. The reef is just a few hundred meters from shore. The water is a beautiful aqua, and so clear. It was like a home away from home. All of the units are unique layouts, very clean and comfortable. Can't wait to go back soon.

    A truly serene destination! I couldn't have been happier with the location, the views, and the service provided by the resort. Also I must say that for having only one restaurant the food is incredible! So well made and with sooo much flavor

    If you are looking good for a resort that is away from the bustle of town, this is a great find. A boat taxi runs to town twice a day. However, with a restaurant, three pools, beaches, and even some kayaks, you don't need to leave the property for some great relaxation.

    By far the absolute worst vacation I have ever had to be on Because of the Garbage Beach Resort. The Sapphire? Yea check out their beach that has trash all up and down it not to mention barely a beach, can't even lay out on it, and it isn't just garbage when it comes to the image of the resort. Sure the villas look nice and all, but water will hardly work, expect bugs in your rooms, and the real bad bugs can be found in the front office. The management is God awful. They have no idea what they are doing and the place would be better off run by 5 year olds. Not to mention this resort is a 25 minute boat ride (more like a door with a motor attached) to and from the resort, and after 7 p.m. don't expect a ride back from or to town. Aka don't plan on ever leaving.. because you can't. And since they already have you trapped the one bar, and one "restaurant" charge insanely hyper inflated prices. So either lose all of your money or starve to death. One and only good thing about this place? The bartender Smokey was a decent person.

    Overall STAY FAR AWAY if this place doesn't close down in the next few weeks it's only because the owner is a hedge fund baby.

    If you're looking for a peaceful, secluded vacation - you'll love Sapphire Beach! The resort is still under construction, but Phase 1 offers lovely condo units, with full kitchens, surrounding 3 small pools. With some beach front units, even the furthest units away are only a couple of hundred feet from the ocean.

    Don't expect lively nightlife here right now. Phase 2 will have the large on-site restaurant, swim-up bar and more. However, right now, with just Phase 1, the restaurant facilities are a single unit converted, with a handful of tables. Despite the limited size, the food is truly superb! Give the handmade pizza a try! Made from scratch, this is some of the best pizza I've ever eaten!

    The service is also five-star. Phase 1 being so small, you get truly personalized service, and every employee has a smile on their face and is willing to go a step beyond, to make sure your stay is perfect. Although I'm eager to see what Phase 2 will bring to Sapphire Beach, I hope the larger size doesn't lose this truly world-class level of service.
