Yes, the staff was good and friendly, the Cabana had everything you could wish for. Amenities good, even a washer and dryer. Including soap in case you would have forgotten that. Very close to a Maya site. And a beautiful beach right there at the bay. No orchids seen by us, but lots of flo

Yes, we had 9A. The ocean view from our unit was incredible. The pool I used once, I enjoyed the beach and ocean waters more. Your staff and people working on the grounds are some of the most kind, hardworking people I've met. We felt very welcomed and all our needs & wants were met with cheerfulness, and smiles. This morning I have already been recommending my co-workers travel and book with you! Thank you for a wonderful week!! It was exactly what I was looking for and needed! We will be back for sure!

The property was beautiful, quiet and peaceful. The casita was very spacious and comfortable. The restaurant had lots of options and a full bar. The location of the resort was such that the water was calm and accessible, even when the water in nearby corozal was very rough and choppy. If you are looking for nightlife, shopping and other activities this isn’t your place but if you want peace and relaxation then I would recommend staying here.

Nice resort

Great beach area and nice pool. Cabana was in pretty good shape but needed a little work. Microwave was dead. Restaurant service was slow, but food was decent. Food prices were reasonable, but major shock when we were billed $25 BZD each for a glass of fresh juice (was not on the menu) - more than our breakfast.

The property is beautifully designed with its gardens and trails throughout. Our casita was nice and spacious. Cleanliness is definitely an issue around the property. People just dump their garbage everywhere along the beach, very sad. The beaches were gorgeous otherwise but it's good to know that the water, despite its serene color on pictures is quite murkey and there's nothing to see if you like snorkeling. The snorkel reefs are about a 1.5-2h boat ride away. We were a bit disappointed upon arrival when we were charged a very high rate for getting picked up at the ferry about 25 min away, which was not mentioned to us. We also thought the restaurant and dining experience was not as serene as advertised in the photos, many tables are plastic folding tables and basic plastic chairs which kinda killed the ambiance. The food was delicious though, we enjoyed their breakfast and dinner options. Most staff was pretty friendly and helpful.

Great staff. Good food. Overall a fun place to visit. It seems like a Florida development that didn't take off. If you stay at the casitas (Walked the semi built lots adjacent & was a bit sad), it'll be great for a couple days. Ours was bigger than expected, but a couple dead lights & loose shower tiles get noticed after the first day. Highly recommend for two days, but not much more (and not sure about the all inclusive despite only the one restaurant) Really a great & so so place. Kayaking was great. People were great. Room was great. Limited beach & activity: not so great.

We had such a wonderful stay at Orchid Bay! David and his beautiful staff are always there to help, and accommodated us when we needed special care. Their generosity was outstanding. The only thing I feel needs to be updated is upon booking, it states 'all inclusive'. There is only an option for this as a special offer (see website). The restaurant has more than ample delicious and variety of foods. We have special diets, and were able to eat lots of items. The people who work at Orchid Bay are absolutely brilliant, and when we return to Belize, we will absolutely stay here again. The casitas are clean, and supplied with towels etc. It felt like a second home. We had a wonderful stay.

We visited Orchid Bay in late June, and had a wonderful time. Staff were uniformly knowledgeable, helpful, attentive and thorough. Our beach-view casita was lovely, fully-equipped and very comfortable. Food at the restaurant was plentiful and varied (even for folks who have some eating restrictions, as we do). We took advantage of a variety of activities and tours, enjoyed them all, and felt that all were definitely worth our time and money. We were at Orchid Bay during rainy season, and recommend bringing strong bug spray as well as heavy-duty sunscreen - though if you forget, both are available at the sundries shop in the restaurant. If you don't plan on consuming a lot of alcohol, the breakfast-inclusive plan on Expedia may be a better value for you than the all-inclusive available elsewhere. The resort is not glamorous or in the middle of exciting nightlife and luxury shops - if that's the vibe you're seeking, you'll want to go to one of the heavily-touristed towns. Instead, Orchid Bay resort is lovely - as relaxing or full of activity as you'd like, with plenty to do and see and learn, wonderful accommodations, good food, and excellent staff. This was our trip for our 25th anniversary, and we were delighted!

Great spot and great staff! We stayed in the condos - they were great, clean, lots of room - gonna try the casitas next time. One note - if you decide to drive yourself, Google took us thru Chunox on the way up, which is slow and very rutted- (there is a new paved road and bridges between Corozal and the resort that Google doesn't seem to know about), but for us, the road up from Belize City thru Orange Walk and thru Progresso to the resort was a better route than thru Chunox
