This is so beautiful property . It was very relaxing and very private. The location is very convenient. The staff is very nice and helpful. It happened that we didnā€™t have good internet connection but management was very apologetic and issues credit for the stay. I will still return to this place . This is good quality place. I have to mention that there is a little construction next to the villa but the noise was there for a very short time. I still love the place.

Staff was very helpful in switching our room to another area upon request. They went above and beyond to be sure all was right. Very professional and friendly staff in all areas of the resort. HIGHLY RECOMMEND staying at any of the Jaguar Reef properties. Thank you especially to Justin who served us on the beach and Patrick whose room recommendation was perfect. Front ladies at the desk were also very welcoming and a pleasure to see checking in and out.

Avoid!
Not comfortable, no lamps just ugly overhead. No headboards. Our door was too tricky with 3 locks that would not work. Twice we were trapped and could not get out. Complete fire/safety hazard. Tiny pool. Crowded spaces and no privacy. For the cost, this place was a total disappointment. We left Caye Caulker after this experience.

Don't be fooled by that glossy book cover
I was staying in 301 of the Villa Margarita section of the resort. Didn't know it was the literally the last section of this strip; furthest away from the main building. Was greeted by Patrick to show us the venue; was pretty quick about going through everything. Got to the room; wasn't what I was expecting - the initial photos I was going through had a mixture of Villa Margarita / Almond Beach / and Colonial after seeing what was actually there at the resort so careful on what you end up booking. The good parts is that the excursions were decent; highly recommend the Silk Caye Snorkeling and Sittee River Tour at Sunset. The food at the resort wasn't good and as a foodie here at back stateside and for a resort in Hopkins on our honeymoon we expected better. You are better off shucking a few more dollars and go to the local ones nearby like Chef Rob's that was next door or even Barracuda - only good part about the restaurant for some people is location/convenience. The room was decent comfy bed, frig, tv (american stations +), laundry service (good price compared to most), bathroom (well more on that; it's not good). Now...the bathroom at 301 Villa Margarita I've had problems since day 1 and after reflecting on the visit now the staff 150% knew there was problem before we checked in. The bathroom was plagued w/ either LOW to NO WATER PRESSURE our ENTIRE VISIT, went to the front desk; reply is working on it vs an apology BEWARE. Feel sorry for the next guest who checked in.
