Marbucks Bed and Breakfast

My wife and I cannot praise Marbucks highly enough! We owe our delightful and memorable experience to the staff and accommodations. The cabanas are beautifully designed, meticulously clean, comfortably furnished and private, but it was the welcoming, attentive, friendly and skilled staff who made it all happen. They provided delectable food and beverages, helpful recommendations and directions, a safe environment and warm and responsive assistance. We were sad to leave our wonderful new friends who had made our stay so enjoyable.

I'm a little late in writing a review, but you know a place is amazing when youre still thinking about months later. And this is so true for Marbucks. We couldn't have asked for a better place to land for the last part of our trip. We split our trip up in two parts and stayed in the jungle at the Sleeping Giant for the first few days (a must place to stay if you're in the jungle). Marbucks is wonderfully located just outside of town. We rented a golf cart and made it so easy to get around. The roads are super bumpy and quite a few construction trucks, but that added to the experience of it. It was our first time to the island, so we weren't quite sure where to stay and for us, this worked out beautifully. It was nice, peaceful and quiet. The units are small and quaint, but just the right size for two people. The best is very comfortable. The plumbing in the shower wasn't exactly ideal, but we understood we are on an island and happy to get what we could. I originally booked Marbucks for the free breakfast. And it delivered! I'm not a morning person, so when traveling, its really nice to have breakfast taken care of and we don't have to figure out where we're going to go. It was so convenient to come out every morning of our unit, sit at the table and order from different options. We tried something different everyday and it was all so delicious. We went out for lunches and ate in the town. The Truck Stop (container food trucks) is a quick walk from Marbucks and really cool option to have close by. We went there twice. Now what makes this whole place special is the people. There was a power outage while we were on the island. Normally they are planned and for a couple of hours at a time, but this one wasnt and lasted the whole day. It went from 10:30am - 12:30am. Marbucks has a generator that they used for the coffeeshop. When that closed, they turned it on for the units. Unfortunately it ran out of gas, but they were able to get a company out and refill it. Esther stayed at the property and made sure we were taking care of. She was wonderful our whole stay. We ended up talking to other people who did not have the same power outage experience, so we were very lucky. I could seriously go on and on. But if youre thinking about staying here, just book it. I promise you won't regret it.

If you are in Belize , DO NOT EAT BREAKFAST there. Breakfast is shady and had food poisoning. I ordered omelet, it was clear that the egg was a sleepover and it was microwaved. I can not say anything about lodging but the area is far from the best beaches, there is another restaurant in front of them with fabulous food.

During our five-day stay at Marbucks Bed and Breakfast, my fiancé and I had a decent experience but were disappointed with several aspects. The location of Marbucks is its strongest suit, as it is in the heart of everything, making it an ideal spot for those looking to explore the surrounding area (we found renting a golf cart essential). The warmth and friendliness of the staff also marked a high point. The major drawback of our stay was that we did not find Marbucks to be where we could hang out and spend time, which we intended to do there. It might cater well to those who prioritize a place merely to rest their heads but not to those who want a place to hang out during the day. Contrary to the appealing images on their booking website, the pool area, which could have been an idyllic spot for relaxation, was largely inaccessible due to breakfast service sprawling from 7 AM to 1 PM, severely limiting our use of the outdoor area (the two lounge beds are put away and people are eating right in front of your room and around the pool area). We ended up going out every day to places like Moon Bar or buying a day pass at a resort to find what we were missing at Marbucks. Another letdown was the lack of a beach spot to relax, which was a bummer. Food-wise, we only really liked the french toast and veggie omelet. There are also discrepancies between advertised and actual services, such as the unfulfilled promise of daily housekeeping and room service, further contributing to our dissatisfaction (our room was not cleaned once during our five day stay). The cessation of food and drink services by early afternoon each day was a considerable inconvenience, as we would have liked to have been able to have drinks throughout the day. In the evening, there was a pervasive presence of a security guard, whose well-meaning vigilance, unfortunately, made us feel overly watched/listened to, which hindered our ability to enjoy the pool and sit on our balcony freely during night hours. We did not find the bed comfortable due to the stiff mattress and pillows. Lastly, the AC was leaking and the refrigerator did not get cold even when turned to the coldest setting.

We loved staying here. The set up was cozy and inviting with the 4 cabanas surrounding a soaking pool and the view out to the ocean. Rob was a gracious and accommodating host. All of the staff are courteous, friendly and a delight to engage with. The breakfasts definitely lived up to the hype as they were delicious. Nothing beats waking up to a gourmet breakfast outside your door in a relaxing environment. We met incredible people both staying there and locals who came over for the weekly wine, small bites and music on Thursday nights. The B&B is close to multiple options for dinners, a short drive to Secret Beach in one direction and San Pedro in the other. An overall wonderful place to stay!

This little airbnb is a great find! Rob is very helpful. The best part is the food and freshly made breakfast. There is nice little eat out spot called truck stop steps away from this place. Stay here for the food!!
