Beachfront Blue Moon Cabana -Gold Standard Approved-

Blue Moon Cabana is BTB Gold Standard Certified for Covid-19 safety protocols!

Blue Moon Cabana is a beachfront house for rent facing the Caribbean Sea in the lovely Garifuna fishing village of Hopkins, Belize.

The cabana is centrally located in one of the most popular areas of Hopkins Village and is within walking distance of restaurants/bars, shops, and other popular establishments. It has a full-service kitchen (cook not included!), 2 bedrooms with full-size beds, living room with full-size futon, and a tiled bathroom.

Enjoy your own private cabana right on the beach! You will no doubt be spending a lot of time in one of the hammocks out on the 8-foot wide covered veranda that spans the entire front and one side of the cabana. Surrounded by windows, you will enjoy stunning views and breezes flowing directly off the sea. Tastefully decorated and furnished with locally-crafted mahogany furniture, Blue Moon Cabana has everything you need to be comfortable and relaxed, while maintaining a Caribbean rustic-charm.

The cabana was designed with an open floor plan that allows guests to enjoy the fabulous breezes that flow throughout the house. The two bedrooms are separated by an enclosed bathroom, and there are bamboo curtain panels for each bedroom that can be closed for additional privacy.

Baby Blue Cabana is an additional (smaller) one-bedroom cabana on the property, including a full-size bed, bathroom, kitchenette, and front veranda. Situated behind Blue Moon Cabana, Baby Blue Cabana enjoys sea views, has a separate walkway out to the public beach, and is steps from the sea. Baby Blue Cabana has an open floor plan and is perfect for a single guest or couple. Staying in the larger beachfront Blue Moon Cabana and need extra space for your party? Baby Blue Cabana is a great option to add extra space and to keep your additional guests close by. Check out VRBO Listing #627746 for more information about Baby Blue Cabana.

Hopkins is a friendly village and because Blue Moon Cabana is located in the center of Hopkins, you can walk to everything. You can also rent a bicycle, motorbike, or golf cart to get around. Blue Moon Cabana is situated on a private beachfront lot and because we're in a village we do have neighbors. Hopkins is a vibrant traditional village that comes alive early in the morning with the singing of tropical birds and the occasional rooster letting you know it's morning! If you're looking to experience the culture of a local village in Belize, Blue Moon Cabana is the perfect spot. If you require a more luxurious and fancier experience, you may be happier with a resort-type accommodation in the north and south outskirts of the village. There is a variety of accommodation options in and around Hopkins to meet the diverse needs of vacationers.

When you stay at Blue Moon Cabana, we can arrange a variety of tours and adventures for you. Mirko, our Property Manager, is a licensed tour operator through the Belize Tourism Board and the Owner/Operator of Flying Boat Adventures, our official partner for transportation and transfers, tours, and adventures, and flights with Tropic Air within Belize and surrounding countries.

Beachfront Dream

This was the best spot!!! You are right in the middle of Hopkins. Everything is within walking distance. The beach is literally right on your doorstep. A great brunch spot is moments away. There's a grocery store kitty corner to you. And excellent restuarants are a short walk away. Plenty of breeze- especially when you open the blinds. A kitchen that will meet all of your needs. A shower that has pressure. And the balcony...oh boy. You will spend hours enjoying the sound of the ocean, the wind, and the view. The beds are VERY firm- I will admit I had a hard time sleeping since I'm used to a softer bed- but everything else made up for that. Plus, our host was super attentive. He took care of everything and responded to any inquiry very quickly. When I return to Hopkins, and I will because it is the friendliest, yummiest spot in Belize, I will only stay here. I couldn't imagine a better place to stay.

Location and a great beach cabana

Two couples stayed 6 nights. On days we had to get out early we were able to make breakfast at home. Many evenings we ended on the large patio with the ocean breeze. You can literally watch the sunrise from bed. VERY secure which my husband appreciated. Next door to a local bar, but late night karaoke on Sunday and a birthday party later in the week is the only time it was noticeable.

Solid place, right price and right location!

This place was just what we wanted. It was a great location, the host was quite helpful, the security was solid, and the price was right. There were a few extra amenities that helped (a cooler, an ice maker). Note that it is small for 4 people, but we knew this going on so was not a surprise. Our only suggestion is to replace the light bulbs with much stronger wattage as it is quite dim in the place once it gets dark outside.

Very nice accommodation in the center of Hopkins.

Blue Moon Cabana is as described in its online advertising. Very well kept with no mechanical issues. Also well provisioned with kitchen equipment and other necessities. It is not resort-like. You are in the center of the town, You will have lots of contact with the local residents. We found them to be very friendly and helpful. I would not hesitate to stay there again if I were to return to Hopkins.

Ocean breezes and views

Gorgeous location right on the beach. Cabana was very clean and tidy. Zero issues with critters of any kind. We visited the week of some of the hottest temps on record (last week of March) and were nervous about the lack of AC. The ocean breezes and ceiling fans worked great for keeping us cool. Loved the big porch and spent most of our time there. Host was great about providing check-in instructions well ahead of time and was gracious and responsive during our stay. Cabana is in Hopkins proper, so we definitely got a feel for the local setting rather than the more polished tourist version. Easy walks to well-stocked markets, dinner options, and Thongs Cafe next door had great breakfast and lunch food.

Beautiful kid safe beach right out your front door! Great location, really cool little house, and Mirko can organize anything for you. The only downfall is 4am karaoke from the bar next door, but that only happened on Friday and Saturday, and if I hadn’t been travelling with my children, I might have gone over for a song.

Great little hide away!

Had a great time and it was a great place to simply unwind and relax. Had a few issues with noise from the little place to the north but the complementary ear plugs were greatly appreciated. Great location close to shops and restaurants and the kitchen is nicely equipped if you want to eat in. It was a little warm with no air but the sea breezes made for some comfortable nights. Would surely stay again.

Stay at Blue Moon Cabana

We loved staying at Blue Moon Cabana. The location is excellent for walking around Hopkins as well as for activities outside of the village. Mirko was exceptionally helpful for scheduling tours and accommodating our last minute changes. He definitely made our trip very easy to plan. The house itself is well kept and exactly what we were looking for. It definitely gave us the authentic belizean trip we were looking for. The view is exceptional! I really appreciate the staff for accommodating us and helping us for the last few days of our trip.

The place has potential, but…

From the pictures it seemed perfect, but it turned out to be a disaster. 1. They had rats. There were rat droppings everywhere. The night we realized there were rats, one of the rats jumped on the bed with my friend, scaring the crap out of us! 2. someone stopped by the first day we were there to essentially “spy” on us. That made me very uncomfortable. And from that visit the property owner messaged me to tell me I had one more person than on the reservation and that I needed to pay an extra daily rate for the person or they would terminate my stay. This person was rude and I did not appreciate the delivery. 3. There is no AC. This place was just hot the entire time except for the nights it rained. The fans did not help. I would not recommend anyone to stay here nor would I stay at this place again.

Great beachfront cabana!

Our family of three stayed here for our time in Hopkins. The cabana was well appointed, great location, walking distance to shopping, restaurants. We jumped in the sea every morning after our breakfast and loved having the beach as our front yard. Happy hour each evening on the veranda was so relaxing, as was falling asleep to the waves. The neighbor on north side of cabana plays radio at night so if that would bug you use the earplugs provided. We also had an issue with a critter joining our vacation (village life!) but was easily remedied with a live trap, which the host reimbursed and it did not put a damper on our trip. Mirko was easily reachable and helpful in arranging a snorkeling trip/day at South Water Caye with a boat, captain, and guide. Would definitely stay here again!

This was the perfect place for my wife and I, and our eight-year-old daughter. Located close to some good restaurants, and the beach out front is perfect. Somebody comes regularly to clean the beach and rake the sand to keep everything tidy. Patio is great for hanging out, and the cabana is cozy and inviting. Would definitely come back.

The place is right on the beach so you fall asleep to the sounds of the ocean and/or rain on the roof. Hopkins is low-key, great food, plenty of opportunities to do stuff or just lie around. We did both.

Keeping it Real, Staying in the Village with the locals

This was our third visit to Hopkins but our first time to stay in the village, not in a resort. It's a much more authentic experience. We enjoyed not having, or needing, a car or even a golf cart. Blue Moon Cabana is a short walk from two grocery stores, an ATM, a dozen fun restaurants, and countless produce-and-souvenir stands. We loved swimming on our own little stretch of beach, hanging out on the sand, enjoying the ocean view from our back porch, and walking to late breakfast and early dinner every day. We slept with the windows wide open and all the fans going - A/C is not needed. We had occasional passing rain showers that roared on the metal roof! Great for sleeping in this beautiful and clean little Mahogany bungalow!

The view was wonderful. We had our windows open the whole time to allow for the beautiful breeze to come in. The house had everything we needed. The only draw back is that you cannot park right at the house. We had to drag our luggage through the sand. It wasn’t far, just didn’t realize it doesn’t have its own way to get to it. We would definitely go back again

Practically Perfect

First: Mirko was great to work with. He met us personally at the property upon check-in and check-out. Great communication before and during stay. Second: The location of Blue Moon Cabana is fantastic. We could walk to restauarants and grocery stores and were literally ON the beach. We loved sitting on the balcony and watching the moon rise over the ocean every night. Third: Mirko and his team thought of practically everything. The kitchen was fully equipped with anything we needed. Then there were the little things like a first aid kit, coozies, clothes line pins, a cooler, coffee filters, bottled water system, books on Belize, even a yoga mat in the house. There were a few items: condiments, coffee, sugar, oil, seasonings, sunblock, aloe, lotion, bug spray, etc. that I'm sure were left by prior guests but came in useful. Mirko had fresh coconuts from the property ready and cooling in the fridge upon arrival (and we got more a couole days later) which made perfect mixed drinks of coconut water, rum, and pineapple juice (not as heavy as a pina colada) We moved to another area of Belize mid-week. Upon checking in my boyfriend said it was not nearly as good as Blue Moon Cabana.. Highly recommend. Next trip if we don't stay at Blue Moon specifically, we will definitely look for Mirko's properties to book.
