Cockscomb Basin Forest Reserve pet-friendly rentals

We loved our stay at the Banks. Check in was easy. The house is fully equipped with everything to make your stay most enjoyable. You wake up to birds chirping. The closed in veranda made for enjoying the outdoors without the sand flies. Our fishing boat came to our door for pick up and delivery. The use of the kayaks was a bonus. Would have used the fishing poles provided but they need longer fishing line. We will definitely look at coming back.

We stayed here for 3 weeks in February. This place is definitely 2and is 5 star. Our trip was very important to our family. Our accommodations being beautiful, very clean, well maintained made our vacation much more memorable. The property, pool, hot tub, swing and picnic table were used daily and enjoyed immensely. The pool was a highlight. The caretakers were very helpful to us, brought fresh fruit or coconut water daily. We would like to thank them and Les for their help and support during our medical emergency. The ambulance service was modern and fully equipped and the hospital was very efficient and well trained. We had family coming and going during the time we were here. Anywhere from 3 to 8 at a time. For some of them it was the first time they had not stayed at an all inclusive and they feel that the trip was magical and amazing. The kitchen was fully equipped and was used daily. We found the location was central to our needs, there was a decent store a few minutes away and we were close to shopping, restaurants, groceries (Publix in Seine Bight was the best place) and excursions. Les helped arrange some of our excursions so we were able to not pay the resort tour prices. He also had some arrangements with other local resorts that allowed us access to the ocean and use of their facilities for a beach day with food and drinks. We would and are recommending this as a vacation of a lifetime destination.

Mellow Yellow Beach House ticks all the boxes for an amazing holiday. The location: Property surrounded by mature Palm Tree, on the Caribbean Sea, just a few steps to the beach and in the center of the Village. Location: Walking distance to grocery-liquor store, and many restaurants. The Decks were our favorite hangout and we spent the majority of our time outside on the main deck watching the incredible sunrises, the various birds and the dragonflies (seasonal).In the evenings the roof top deck was the place to watch sunsets and later star gazing. The house is a vacationers dream with its large well stocked kitchen, spacious great room and 2 master bedroom bathroom suites. The large showers and spacious bathroom were a well-planned luxury. We could continue highlighting the many great features of (MYBH) as we had an unbelievable holiday and would recommend to anyone considering a vacation to Hopkins, Belize to book this property . I have added another Review written by a previous guest. She does a great job of sharing similar feelings and additional tips. The Mellow Yellow Beach House (MYBH) is the perfect vacation stay! The property is beautifully laid out, clean, well designed and gorgeous. It is evident that this is a newer build with amazing amenities. Highlights include: Open living area/kitchen that made it so much fun to cook/entertain in. Large bathrooms with huge showers (and rainfall showerheads!) and comfortable beds. Can we talk about the views!? Rooftop sunsets and the most beautiful sunrises! The beach is clean and free of any debris and I enjoyed my morning coffee while sitting on a tree stump on the beach watching the sunrise. We tried to schedule a snorkeling trip online, but they were booked. We called the property manager and he found a local instructor and booked our trip for us! Anything we needed...he happily took care of! We absolutely loved living in the Hopkins community and everyone is so friendly. (A tip I learned of; the locals don't want to bother you, so they are pretty quiet and do not acknowledge you, but if YOU say "hello"...oh my gosh...SO friendly!) Long review and there is so much more to share, but this gives you an idea as to how perfect the MYBH is...book it now before it books up!

Amazing, will be retuning.

Nice quiet location. Amazing property. The hospitality is great, people are friendly. We considered an all inclusive, but decided on the house for the space and privacy. Gillian is a great host, and Anthony and Dana keep the place very clean and in great order. This was our first time to Belize and this was what we were looking for. There is a house being built next door, but it was inconsequential to us. We walked to nearby restaurants few nights, but you'll want a car or cab to get to the closest convenience store. We used the kayaks and paddleboards a few times, and there are bikes available. Plenty of towels, some pantry and personal care items are available. We over packed because we weren't sure if we could get some of those things. A lot of rentals have cheap everything and nothing extra, but the house is well furnished and very comfortable. I would definitely stay here again and have no complaints about the property, location, amenities, or the gracious folks that share this home with travelers like me. Thanks!

We originally booked a week and thankfully not only did West Jet extend our stay by 2 nights, the amazing owners were able to accommodate as well. Jon Amy Andrew are some of the nicest / helpful people we’ve encountered during our travels. The ad does not do the location justice - IN ALL GOOD WAYS !!The cabins are stunning and the beach is clearly even better. The hammocks were a nice treat and my family loved to snorkel right out front and see manatees sting rays jelly fish etc. Everything is very close (bars restaurants markets) and the locals are extremely kind and helpful too. Make sure you hit Maximo’s right down the beach for the best chicken quesadilla any of us have ever had from the sweetest local family.

Great location on the beach it’s also quite quiet as the neighboring places buffer most noise from the nearby eateries. We were entertained by local kids stopping by to visit as well as some horses that had wandered off. Enjoyed our time there and will return in the future.

The cabin was just as described. Well cared for by the care-takers Antonio and Dena. There were a lot of birds, and we saw Red-Lored Amazons among many others. Being near the river, and in a fairly dense forested area, there were mosquitoes and no-seeums. The large screened porch was a great place to enjoy the wildlife. A good BBQ was provided, the cabin was very large, and the a/c worked very well. All in all, a great stay. Recommend.
