Overall Ratings & Reviews The Palapa House

The staff and the location were optimal.

This was a good value.

Loved the restruraunts near the property and cleaning staff were super helpful dealing with some local issues. Cons..... safe was not bolted down and the music away from the property was loud on saturaday night ( not the properties fault.)

It is in a terrific location and was clean and their service was friendly and attentive and the price was very agreeable. the bed was comfortable and although the space is a little limited it served us just fine and I would recommend them to anyone considering staying in San Pedro!

Good staff and friendly neighbors. Also staying at the Palapa.

Thanks to Orlando and Shane our stay at Palapa House was easy and carefree. The property provides a view of the culture of San Pedro that can’t be beat. If you’re looking to soak in the Caribbean culture and sea, then Palapa House is for you!

Property right on the beach close to dining and excursions

The Palapa House was one of the best accommodation choices I made during my trip to Belize. This vrbo/condo style property is situated just outside the bustling main streets of San Pedro. The view from the upper balconies of the building is an astonishing uninterrupted shot of palms and ocean. The room was spotless when I arrived, with more than enough towels (including beach towels) and shower amenities to last for my trip. The water pressure was acceptable and the temperature was great. The bed was super comfortable. If I had to nitpick, I wish there was somewhere to hang wet bathing suits/clothing and this is the only place during my stay that did not provide any filtered water. You are close by to multiple grocery stores to pick up water, but a couple of bottles on the counter would have been nice to tide over until I could settle in and head to the store. The location was perfect. You are just a short walk away from all the shops and restaurants that San Pedro offers, plus there are several that are just steps out your door. I ended up eating at the Sandbar and Cool Beans more than once. Drinks at the Palapa Bar are pricy but delicious. Orlando and Karla were a regular presence on the property and were always willing to answer a question or take care of an issue. Karla was particularly clutch with multiple outstanding restaurant recommendations. I will be back to Belize at some point and the Palapa House will be at the top of the list for accommodations.

I can't say enough wonderful things about my stay. The location is perfect, you are walking distance to everything in San Pedro town, there is a real beach and multiple tour companies right outside. We lost our key and Orlando went above and beyond to help us late at night. Not having a front desk is not an issue, it's all seamless and any issues that pop up will be resolved. We did not have any issues with parking our golf cart despite this area being very popular. I loved staying here instead of the resorts because it just felt like a more authentic experience. I will definitely stay here again!!

Overall was a great stay

My in-laws, husband, and I stayed in suite 7 for the past 4 nights and it was great! Really great location, very walkable to most things in town. We had a golf cart and always had ample parking spots. There are 2 bars literally within a stones throw to grab food or drinks. You can hear the live music from Palapa bar on the balcony, but surprisingly not from inside. That being said, the walls are pretty thin, so if you have people staying beside you, you will most likely hear them at some point. The water pressure is pretty minimal and the water takes a bit to heat up, but otherwise no complaints! Check-in was super easy and the directions were simple. There is no where to store bags if you want a late check out or early check in btw. It really depends on if they need your room to get ready for the next guests. So try to plan your arrival/depature times around 3 for arrival and 11 for departure. Otherwise, would definitely recommend!

Beautiful views, great breeze on the 3rd floor.

The Palapa House was in such a perfect location! Somehow still super quiet and peaceful, but central for walking to almost anywhere in San Pedro. The bed was super comfortable. We messaged a few weeks prior to our trip and got recommendations for a rental golf cart and were able to arrange that for easy airport pickup and use during our trip--so helpful!! And the morning of our snorkel tour, all we had to do was wake up, make some coffee, and walk literally across the beach to Chuck & Robbie's Dive Shop.

I was in Unit 3 on the 2nd floor. No elevators in San Pedro so being able to walk up and down stairs is a necessity. I felt safe during the day and at night. I heard no street noise but did hear neighbors next door when they were talking loudly and the neighbors upstairs when it sounded like they were moving furniture around. But noise was really at a minimal. This site has a pool but did not use as it was a little cool. Would stay here again.

Great location

Clean, spacious, great beachfront location!

so close to everything and was super clean!

The location can’t be beat. Orlando was always very very responsive. We would definitely stay here again

AMAZING

the property was clean, the bathrooms functioning and the sheets clean. The kitchen was clean but did not have a stove, there was a microwave and a coffee machine. I had to buy my coffee, sugar etc. The beach area needed a little attention, but not usable. We had to go to the Palapa bar and grill for a swim, drinks and food. Eating out gets very expensive, my advise is to go nearby on the street and find a good local hole in the wall and eat very good cooked meals cheaply. We ate regularly at Yoli's Deli, I highly recommend it.
