Cheap hotel, absolutely no frills. Don't expect much, and bargain hard. Good location. Common area with hammocks just meters away from the beach. More

My stay there went fine, It is next to the only bar that can stay open till 3am. As long as you are wanting to stay up and party it is a great location. The bar is not crazy loud but you can hear it. The staff was friendly, the rooms basic but fans worked well and it was adequate.... More

This is a super cheap concrete dump with lumpy beds. It is like staying in an old bunker. Our room didn't have anything in the way of luxuries, including a towel rack, toilet paper holder, fridge...It is dark, dank and dingy with sand everywhere. The overhead fans are extremely old and look as if they are about to fly off... More

This hotel is great for the budget traveller. Cheap rooms compared to most other hotels on the island. Good location right across from the water and plenty of shops and restaurants nearby. If you get up to use the bathroom in the night though you will notice a cockroach infestation. We killed 6 the first night and when we asked... More

The hotel is a good option on Caye Caulker if you are looking for budget accommodations. We stayed for around $20 US a night in a double room on the upper floor, no air conditioning. The rooms are fairly clean, there is salt build up on the bathroom taps and shower heads. The staff were helpful enough, and there is... More

We enjoyed the spacious lobby, rooms were large but rather dark and heavy - a bit old-fashioned. However, everything was clean, good room service, and haivng the beach across the road was great, watching kids with their kites especially. Good solid hotel, well placed. We were happy - not ecstatic, but happy More

I had the worst time of my life at this hotel. I would not wish it upon anyone, there was a tropical storm during our stay and not only had the hotel staff abandoned the guests but the place is filthy and riddeled with bed bugs! More

Pro: I found the management quite friendly and helpful. The location is excellent. The rooms are clean. Good price performance ratio. You can negotiate the price on the spot if it is not high season. Pretty calm nevertheless you are on the main street. You can get a hammock in front of your room on request. Contra: The internet doesn't... More

I want to qualify this review with the fact that I am a well-seasoned traveler - I take sufficient precautions and I am not reckless with my valuables. Nevertheless, during my stay at Tropics Hotel, my room was burglarized and a significant amount of money was stolen from my locked room while I was on a day trip. Upon informing... More
