Overall Ratings & Reviews Bamboleo Inn Belize

The common area was dirty with open construction and plywood Dog running around owner son sitting on dirty dinning table and broken chair The place was on dirt road and in scary area

Staff were very kind and accommodating

The room we stayed in was very cozy and clean. Our host was very friendly, professional, and accommodative. The inn is not located on the main road, but the host offers transportation to and from locations as a small fee. Airport transportation is free.

nice spot...simple room. great people...Jeffrey & Colin...

Very friendly host with nice clean room Thank you

I arrived early in the day, and Colin was very responsive and understanding of my situation allowing me to have a room immediately. The room was comfortable and clean. Later in the day, Colin came by to check if I needed anything. Since the nearby restaurants were closed, he personally made the drive to pick up food and deliver it to us. The next day, he even gave us a ride to the airport. His personalized attention meant a lot to me. Thank you to Colin and to the Bomboleo Inn!

Apparently they didn’t know that we were coming. The hotel hadn’t received the reservation from Expedia. However it was no problem and they quickly arranged rooms for our party of four. We were able to walk to a local restaurant and had a great Belizean breakfast at Bamboleo!

very friendly and helpful managers

When we arrived we were told our reservation had been cancelled. They claimed that “someone” called and cancelled our reservation. I think they oversold the property and couldn’t guarantee the room so they made an excuse. They were incredibly nice and helpful through the whole thing, even calling another potential hotel to check availability. But still… I want my money back. We will see how Expedia handles this scenario.

Pros: Clean floors and sheets, quiet, AC worked Cons: This place was… fine. Felt a bit like a place that once was. Those images in the description of people smiling and enjoying a glass of wine over a nice meal are definitely not a reality of this place. The tables are gone. There are holes in the screens upstairs. There was not an option for food. Other than that the room was… fine. We were given half a roll of toilet paper. There were 3 spoons and a knife… no forks. Some of the dishes were dirty. Dirty, moldy drying mat. No dish soap. Window locks didn’t work and we were on the ground floor. Credit card machine was broken so we had to go to an ATM to pay for the room. A bit sketchy to get back to… but I guess that’s what made it quiet. It felt like a step above a backpacker’s accommodation but without the backpacker budget. It worked but I wouldn’t stay here again.

Made me feel welcome & at home from the time i got there

It's difficult to explain our stay at Bambaleo. On one hand the staff is nice, considerate, and helpful. On the other hand, I wouldn't have stayed there but for TAG Airline who arbirtally changed our flight. My stay was fine for one night. One more night and I would have found somewhere else. It wasn't my style or first choice. Our hosts were outstanding! They took us to a local restaurant and pretty much held our hands during our stay. We thank them very much for their consideration.

My last night in Belize was perfect

when I got to Belize city and through customers, the airport shut their Wi-Fi down and I had no way to communicate with the hotel. I was alone outside when I best western van pulled up looking for passengers. They took me through Ladyville looking for the Hotel and could not find it. The area looks so bad, Unpaid streets, potholes, dangerous looking people. I told the van drivers to get out of there and take me to a nice hotel, which they did. I stayed at the best Western Biltmore Plaza Hotel. I Was really scared! I hope I will not be charged for the room I did not use. W. H. COX

Very sweet hosts, and super cute on the river

This was the perfect spot for us on the final leg of our trip. It’s a beautiful property in a quiet neighborhood and the service was great. The food (especially breakfast) was top notch and Shamera provided everything we could want. We’ll certainly stay here the next time we’re in Belize.

Clean and comfortable. Great host. Breakfast was amazing

Very comfortable....Great host Was a excellent stay

It was a wonderful first stop in Belize. Close to the airport. Miss Vinny greeted us with a big smile and checked us in. We loved our stay and enjoyed our creek view. Cathy, Dan and miss Vinny (sorry if I’m not spelling her name correctly) were fun to hang out on the porch with and chat. Best fry jacks ever!! Breakfasts were delicious. Thanks for the ride to the local restaurant for dinner, the delightful conversation, the use of your pool and for all the hospitality. We hope to make a return visit and would definitely stay at the inn again!
