Mariposa Belize Beach Resort

We don’t usually stay at places like this one because we are usually on a tighter budget but this was a fantastic middle of the road option. The staff wer always available.

Staff was amazing. They catered to our every need. Gladis, George, Donny, Carlos, are wonderful people with great attitudes. The tree top rooms were amazing, comfortable beds and cold A/C. They kept them clean and the fridge stocked with beverages. I would definitely recommend you book your stay here. The food was incredible, zero complaints. One of the cool things about Mariposa is that there are not a bunch of rooms, it’s much more personable and you get more privacy.

The staff is attentive, friendly and accommodating, I highly recommend this place

If you want a romantic secluded get away, this is the place to go. We loved our tree house in the trees. It felt like we had a luxury resort all to ourselves with a 5 star service. The pool was beautiful on the beach with pool side service. The restaurant is top rated and the food made this evident. Any of the seafood is amazing.

Mariposa Beach Resort swept us off our feet in every possible way! Donnie and his incredible team (Glaydas, Carlos x3 Oliver and others)showered us with warmth and care from the moment we stepped foot on the property, welcoming us with refreshing towels and heavenly island drinks.They went above and beyond to ensure every moment was magical, including organizing a heartwarming and romantic dinner for our last night—a gesture that left us speechless. 💕 Their hospitality wasn't just top-notch; it was downright unbeliezable! Did I mention ...From breakfast, lunch to dinner...The food was Absolutely Amazing!!!! We didn't just find a vacation spot; we found a second family. Can't wait for our next reunion with Donnie and the team at Mariposa Beach Resort!

The food was very good, especially the dinner specials. The overall service was excellent.

LOVE, LOVE, LOVE this resort!!! There are only 11 rooms - we stayed in a treehouse and it was perfect. The bed was super comfy and the a/c worked well. The service was outstanding on all fronts - everyone seemed genuinely happy to have us there and it felt like we had the whole resort to ourselves which was really cool. Anything we wanted they made it happen! All of the food we had there was delicious as well!

My husband and I stayed a week in one of the “Tree Houses” at Mariposa Resort. The staff was absolutely wonderful. All went out of their way to help us and to answer any questions that we had. As a bonus, we got to know them personally. We discovered many things about their beautiful country, their homes, their families and their work. We shared many stories together which made our stay much more meaningful. The tree house was beautifully crafted and very clean. The beds were so comfortable, and there was plenty of space for the two of us. We loved having a sitting area and hammock on the porch. The ‘jungle’ setting for the tree houses is beautifully landscaped and very private. There is a short walk to the restaurant and beach. There are more tree houses planned for the near future, but I think the area will maintain its private feel. We were happy to be away from the busy-ness of Placencia Village. We traveled easily back and forth to town in our rented golf cart and on the bicycles offered by Mariposa. We enjoyed the use of the kayaks, as well. We enjoyed the ease of having a restaurant on site, and could choose to sit by the ocean, or in a comfortable open air space protected from the sun and wind/rain. The menu was a mix of Belizean and American fare. We had our favorite breakfasts of granola, yoghurt, eggs and Belizean breads. The grilled fresh fish dinners were also very tasty. If I were to suggest anything at all, it would be to have hooks on the interior walls of the units for jackets, hats etc. That would have made a lovely stay even lovelier!

The Mariposa is a lovely spot, but what really stands out is the staff - friendly, efficient and kind. We had a treehouse, which was spacious and spotless. The location, exactly 2 mins and 15 seconds from the tiny airport, and just a quick golf cart ride into Placencia, is great. We'd been in the jungle, and on some of the southern cayes, and we wound up our Belize trip here. It was a lovely finale.
