Villa Margarita at Jaguar Reef

Our visit to Hopkins and Villa Margarita at Jaguar Reef was picture perfect! The grounds and the accommodations were gorgeous! But beyond that, the staff are exceptional at every level! They are incredibly helpful and attentive and friendly. They go out of their way to make sure every detail is taken care of! A few shout outs: Jianne, who checked us in and walked us to our room was delightful! She is a pro at her job! I had an issue with the key for my room - Edgar from Guest Services (also a phenomenal bartender!) and Roberto from Maintenance were on top of it immediately. They resolved the issue very quickly :) Another Roberto who cleaned our pool was wonderful! We had a great time chatting about Belize and life here in the Hopkins area. Daniel who has a MASSIVE job of raking the beach with his triple rake, was so joyful and friendly. Those are just a few of the incredible staff that work so hard to make this place an oasis for their guests!

The staff for this Hotel were so friendly and very hard working always there to help. Jerry, Lukas, Greg, Malcolm, Captain Larry, Captain Alex and cousin Anthony thank you for all of your help, kindness and laughs. I apologize for the ones I may have forgotten to mention. The beach was beautiful and clean everyday due to staff making sure. Our room was beautiful, clean and huge, with a pool and ocean view. Thank you for everything :)

This is so beautiful property . It was very relaxing and very private. The location is very convenient. The staff is very nice and helpful. It happened that we didn’t have good internet connection but management was very apologetic and issues credit for the stay. I will still return to this place . This is good quality place. I have to mention that there is a little construction next to the villa but the noise was there for a very short time. I still love the place.

My stay was beautiful, especially loved the pool and quiet. My friend Salam made my stay special. Helping me and made me a coconut. Very kind person. The food was wonderful as well, service fantastic. And I had a fabulous room with a wonderful view of pool and ocean. Will be back for sure. One of my favourite things was making new friends and having a fire on the beach but you don’t seem too often, under a full moon beside a fire on the beach delightful.

The stay was fantastic, room is spacious, and the customer service from the general manager, Tessie Duran Tonaco, was professional & unmatched. When you visit, please ask for Tessie to handle your concerns. She'll go above and beyond to make sure it is a pleasant experience with the most genuine smile and personality. I'm looking forward to returning bringing others with me.

Such a nice place for families, or singles. Captain Larry is a gem and is always smiling and if you are wanting to find something he will find someone who can help you. Will helped us with our excursions and he was great. I always wanted to try a sprouted coconut and Ambrocio was able to find me 2 of them! Leo our driver was great. and answered questions for us on our drive to the resort.

We stayed at Villa Margarita for 5 days and aside from one rainy afternoon it was paradise. Our friends were staying at the Almond Beach, a mere 2 minute walk down the beach from us. We would often gather at the amazing Dock Bar or chill poolside at either the almond beach swim up bar or Villa Margaritas private pool. Both were lovely and well maintained. Larry and Bruno were both wonderful in providing fresh coconuts and delicious drinks respectively as well as adding to the friendly vibe of our trip here. Emery was also a very comforting presence as the security advisor. The one drawback was the new implementation of golf carts, there are still issues with several of the carts and I would say come prepared to ride a bike if you want to see the city in daytime. Provided kayaks and Paddleboards were a blast. And be sure to check out the blue lights on the dock bar at night.

Staff is very friendly. Property is clean and close to beach and dining.

Their website depicts this place a bit different then what you get. Let my mistake save you a lot of money! When I booked the beachfront deluxe room, it showed photos of the entire floor of the villa with couches, kitchen, etc. It also said choose between 1st and 3rd floor from what I thought was what I booked. The room we actually got was half the floor. Divided by a partition (not a solid wall) with another couple we didn’t know. So we could hear their conversations, smell their food, etc. Very awkward and made privacy unattainable. This partition is also not locked so the neighbors could have easily come over while we were out. Just overall not okay with us. We went to front desk and mentioned the concerns and how we felt like this was false advertising and a bit duped by the website and this was not what we signed up for. She just said oh I will let someone that does our website know. No help, no solution, no apologies, nothing. We will be visiting Hopkins again next year but Will absolutely not be staying here ever again. And we will let everyone we know to steer clear of this place as well. NOT WORTH THE MONEY!
