Sea Front Inn

The staff at this hotel are the real stars, particularly Emelita Teul and Linsburg Chun, who go over and above anything required of them to be as helpful and hospitable as possible. The staff generally are very friendly, kind, considerate, and gentle (like most Belizeans, I might add). The hotel itself has clearly seen its glory days, and is now almost decrepit, I won't list and detail every little thing that did not work, was broken, or absent. It would have been a genuinely uncomfortable stay were it not for the relief provided by the staff. The owner(s), on the other hand, are clearly negligent and/or unprepared to undertake the necessary inves**ent to run a real hotel.

A clean, well-worn hotel with a very friendly owner and night manager and scenic views of the ocean from the balcony outside the restaurant or the small balcony on the top floor. We were on the fourth floor, which is QUITE a schlep, but our room was clean, the bed was very comfortable, the AC, shower and toilet all worked great. Not sure I would have liked it when the restaurant/bar was open - it's right there under the rooms and would probably be loud - but it's closed, sadly, because of the pandemic. But it means that, at night, you can go buy some beer and sit out on that beautiful, empty terrace and watch the moon on the water. Our room's bathroom got a bit ripe after 24 hours - something in the plumbing that may be just for this hotel or all over Punta Gorda. You will therefore want to have it cleaned daily (and the cleaning staff is super nice). Easy walk into downtown for food and provisions. No drinking water provided on the fourth floor, so make sure you buy some for your room. The owner let us park our motorcycles under the stairs and they were usually hidden by a car parked in front - it felt very safe and secure. We walked throughout downtown and this seems to be the best place to stay in Punta Gorda, which has definitely seen better days. But it was the quiet respite we needed during our two weeks in Belize.

Perfect to spend a night - on my way to Livingston (Guatemala). The airport is walkable (with backpack). The ferry terminal is new block from the hotel.

They went the extra mile to make sure the baby had a comfortable place. Friendly staff

The restaurant was closed, I could not get breakfast or dinner. The room was very poor.
