Buttonwood Belize

My partner & I spent two nights in the Aquarius Room of Buttonwood at the end of our trip to Belize and both of us wished we could stay longer! Super-clean, super-comfortable room with high-end furnishings & amenities, and access to the restaurant, pool & additional beach amenities at Coconut Row were an incredible value for the nightly rate for the room! We also pre-booked an arrival car service from Dangriga and a shuttle return to the airport at the end of our stay directly through the property. Though the former ended up being rather expensive compared to what we could've arranged for ourselves, the airport shuttle was priced the same as others I saw online and the convenience & reliability of pre-booking both were ultimately worth it. The proprietor and all the employees we met--special shout-out to Chantal & Deyri at the Front Desk! ＜3 ＜3--were so friendly & helpful! Prices at the bar & restaurant are Belize dollars, so I definitely recommend paying for your breakfast a la carte *if* you're staying at Buttonwood. (The breakfast-inclusive rate appears almost double versus staying in a Coconut Row accommodation for some reason, though the restaurant *is* definitely worth patronizing for breakfast as it was fresh & delicious with generous portions.) Property location was convenient to everywhere we needed to go, though we would've loved to borrow the complimentary bikes to further explore the town, had we had time. And the beachfront access at both locations is first-rate!! Not having prior plans to, we would definitely consider returning to Belize just to spend more time at Coconut Row. Book today with confidence if you're considering this property--you're sure to enjoy your stay as much as we did!

This is a really lovely place and the staff make the experience even more enjoyable. We stayed at a first floor ( 2nd floor to Americans) room. Very spacious with a lovely view across the clean beach and coconut trees over the sea. I was concerned about late night noise at Hopkins as there are quite a few beach shacks which play music till late in the night but there was no such problem near Buttonwood. Air con was strong and quiet. Bathroom big with good water pressure. Bed large with comfortable pillows. There was a microwave, small fridge, set of crockery including wine glasses and a filter coffee machine. Very clean and not many bugs. You check in at Coconut Row and they'd bring you and bags to Buttonwood. Just a couple of minutes drive. No lift but the staff would help to bring the bags up. We used to walk to their sister property Coconut row and enjoy our meal there. The swimming pool is also there. The area felt very safe and we walked along the beach, all the way to the resorts and also to the Garimaya shop. Lots of iguanas and beautiful pelicans, sandpipers and frigate birds around. We also had fresh coconut water as well. Our trip to Glover's got cancelled because of bad weather and the management quickly found an alternative private snorkelling experience for us. Highly recommended.

My husband and I stayed at Buttonwood for 4 nights earlier this month and it was a wonderful stay. This is part of the Coconut Row hotel, but a separate building a couple hundred yards down the beach. We had the 3rd floor room, which has a wonderful balcony with great views and easy access to the roof-top deck, which has even better views, including sunset views to the west. There is also a very nice beach in front of the building. The sargassum is an issue this time of year, but we were still able to enjoy the beach even if we didn't get into the water from the beach. Coconut Row does have a nice pool, so we spent a lot of time there. Adjacent to the pool is a bar and restaurant - good drinks, good food, and the staff is great. Our room itself was great - very comfortable and well-appointed with everything that we needed. We had a kitchenette so we could keep our beverages cool and heat up leftovers as needed.
