Hotel at a Glance: Hopkins Bay Resort
In 2016, this laid-back resort was named 1 of Belize’s top 10 hotels in TripAdvisor’s Travelers’ Choice awards. It’s no wonder—guests rave about its tropically themed rooms and beachfront location. Head outside to swim in a sunlit pool or the Caribbean Sea, or borrow a bike or kayak to venture beyond the resort’s palm-studded grounds.
- One-bedroom lofts are ideal for couples, and each has a private balcony.
- Two-bedroom houses: Good for families, each unit features a full kitchen and two bathrooms in a spacious 1,300-square-foot layout.
- Have an adventure: The resort offers guided diving excursions to the Great Blue Hole and Turneffe Atoll. On land, guests can go horseback riding or rappelling in the jungle (additional fee).
- Eat local at the onsite Rhum Shack restaurant, where specialties include cassava cake and a Belizean chicken stew served with rice and beans (additional fee).
- Signature drink: the Wave, a blend of local gin, lime juice, and ginger soda served at the open-air Drum Bar
Hopkins Village, Belize: Friendly Fishing Town Surrounded by Lush Jungles._
Hopkins Village was once dubbed “the friendliest village in Belize” by Belize First magazine. The vibe is laid back and there are only 1,000 residents in this beachside locale, giving it a small-town charm. The attitude, along with its array of bars, shops, and restaurants, have helped make the village an up-and-coming destination.
Most of Hopkins’s residents identify as Garinagu, an ethnic group descended from native Caribbean and African people. You can get a sense of the soul of the city by going to the Lebeha Drumming School, which teaches the local Garifuna traditions of music and dance. Almost every night after 7 p.m., the school holds open drumming sessions that anyone can attend. The Gulisi Garifuna Museum in Dangriga is worth a visit if you’re interested in learning about the history and customs of the Garinagu.
Hopkins is just 21 miles south of Dangriga, the capital of the district and the largest town in southern Belize. The location is a convenient base for both inland jaunts to tour Mayan ruins or cave-tube through picturesque caverns and seaside activities from snorkeling and diving to fishing. Dangriga is peppered with oceanfront parks, but the action centers on the main thoroughfare (it varies in name from Havana Street to St. Vincent Street to Commerce Street). Many restaurants here serve fresh fish caught from the nearby waters; snapper, grouper, and king mackerel are caught frequently in the nearby Atlantic.
