Our stay was good. Melissa was a great host even though that was not her job but she made us feel welcome and assisted us in what we needed. Jeremy and Sam were great and very attentive. The so called property manager I think his name was Brandon was ok need more training. Now the real kicker the owner was on site didn’t acknowledge herself as such talk to us and didn’t ask how our stay and we were really the only guest at the resort. It could be better.

Loved this place. But the roads need work. And there needs to be a real manager onsite each day. There was no manager Sat or Sun. They need TV access. The staff - hotel, bar, and housekeeping - are excellent!

The property was unique. The rooms are bigger than the website suggests and the showers are great. The decor is some rooms is rather dull with too much grey on top of all of the concrete. The little kitchenette and abundant towels were apprecaited. I twould have been nice to be provided with a small broom given all the sand that was inevitably tracked into the room. The common areas are limited, uncomfortable stools and swings at the breakfast and lunch bars and mostly outdoors which was uncomfortable given the wind, the bugs, and the cool weather while we were there.The upstairs rooftoop was great for dinner but also poorly lit, buggy, and windy. The menu choices were excellent and the cook would easily add or substitute ingredients which we appreciated. Dinner was great both nights we were there. There are a few good restaurants between the resort and the overpriced town of San Pedro. Black Orchid and Mahogony Bay are nice options. You pretty much have to rent a noisy golf cart to get anywhere from this property which is miles from the noisy, dangerous and dirty town of San Pedro (pedestrians beware; there are no sidewalks and the noise is infernal). The whole area of Isla Bonita is full of garbage and debris spoiling the landscape.The staff at the property were lovely, they did laundrey for us, made suggestions,etc. We thank them.

The hotel room was very comfortable and very clean. The entire staff was very attentive and friendly. The food was excellent and the beach on the property was beautiful and clean… a uniquely enjoyable experience.

The property was in a very quiet area. The staff was beyond amazing and friendly. I would have preferred to be a little closer to town personally. The pool is very small and halfway under the shade. The website makes it look a lot bigger so it is deceiving. The continental breakfast that was included only consisted of a plate of scrambled eggs with a piece of toast and a few pieces of fruit along with one cup of tea or coffee. If you wanted more tea or coffee they charged you. The water isn’t swimmable. It is dark and murky. The room we were in (Wood Room) was tiny and the toilet wasn’t private. It was inside a wooden framed area that didn’t go all the way to the ceiling so you had no privacy at all. Melvin, Julie and Nathaniel were amazing and so helpful during our stay.

Property was very nice and quiet, staff is very accommodating. Only inconvenience is it’s very far out. Loved it.

I'd like to start off by saying the food was delicious and the staff was friendly. However, the first night we were without tv because it didn't work. That was taken care of the next day. We wanted to use the infinity pool but were told it was broken. Then we wanted to use the kayaks but they didn't have life jackets. The reason we chose this hotel was the infinity pool and the free use of kayaks. Also, they started construction on an outside bar. We were awakened around 7 am to hammering, sawing and loud talking. Lastly, the pictures on the website are deceiving. This property didn't look as beautiful as we were expecting. We will definitely return to Belize because we did enjoy everything away from this hotel, but we will not stay here again.
4.9
Property management is very involved and wants to make your experience special. They do an excellent job arranging private tours and accommodating whatever it is you’re interested in doing. Food is great. It’s far from the main shops and restaurants but we rented a golf cart (you need to to get around the island anyway) and it was so nice to be away from the noise and crowd.

10/10 would recommend this place. Come here if you want true serenity and peace. It is stunning, quiet, accommodating & has hands down the best food and drink in the entire area. We couldn’t be happier with our stay here. The staff was incredible, so friendly…. One of the best parts was getting to know them and building friendships & sharing stories. Our chef Jose was meticulous and incredible to watch cook. He was so fun to visit with! Forest who owns this property has built an extraordinary experience and a true family here with her staff and it was an honor to stay at her place. The art all around the property was also done by her dad which is really amazing to see. Forest lined us up with a boat excursion that picked us up right from the dock, our captain Luis was fantastic, he took us snorkeling, fishing, shark swimming & then to a beach where he cooked us up lunch. He made sure everyone was comfortable at all times, pointed out islands and their names, all the different fish, he was absolutely amazing & very professional. There is a review on this place about it being for “swingers” which you can disregard, whoever left that bad review was intentionally trying to hurt them & give the place a bad rap. Absurd what people will do to try and hurt a small business. I’m serious, if you want one of the best vacations of your life….. and BONUS: no screaming children around the property!!!!!! …. You need to come here. We will for sure be back again someday.

Love it. Private. Excellent staff and the property is awesome

The staff was amazing! And I loved that it was an adult only plus a small resort so it was like having a private beach experience.
4.9
This was one of the most amazing places we have ever stayed. The staff is beyond amazing and incredibly professional and personable which makes further stay even better. I would absolutely recommend this to anyone. It was quiet very clean and Forest and her staff are amazing. We would definitely stay here again.

I cannot recommend Playa de Sala highly enough. It is a beautiful, relaxing, fun, and welcoming place to stay on the island of San Pedro. The cooks, José and Addy are so talented and friendly. José made me and my newly wed husband his special Belizian stew chicken. It was just delicious. We ate nearly every meal here because it was so good and reasonable. The owner, Forest, is approachable, welcoming, and manages the place expertly. The bartender Melvin is a gem. Honestly, Playa de Sala was an oasis and I wish I could go back immediately. Belize is a beautiful and friendly country with delicious cuisine and warm people. The staff at Playa de Sala arranged two magnificent excursions for us - snorkeling one day and Mayan ruins/cave tubing on the mainland for another day. They arranged a golf cart for us when we asked. It was waiting for us with the keys the next day. If I could give this aesthetically pleasing, welcoming, and clean property 10 stars, I would. I should also note that the room was beautifully decorated as a welcome for our honeymoon; it was very special.

Well was clean a nice hotel only bad thing was that the hotel was on the other side of town but I gues this was my mistake for not checking the exes t location . Very friendly crew and the food was berry good as well . The bar on the roof top was amazing . The beach wasn’t good as all the beaches in San Pedro . It appear the only good beach in the island it’s secret beach . The hotel beach was clean a quiet but lots of sea grass as everywhere except secret beach. I didn’t dig the toilet part and they tried to put some charges on my bill when we ware leaving and I already payed cash for them . Maybe a simple mistake . Over all … depends what you looking for.

This property is in an area of the island that is a newer area being built on southern part about 1 mile from downtown but very easily accessible by golfcart. Each of the 5 rooms is very suitable for couples as it is a couples resort very quiet and the staff is top notch absolutely make you feel like your family

Everything was great! From the staff to the owner....just get clear clarification on the golf carts....

Stayed a week and it was amazing. Beautiful hotel, so quiet there. The staff is absolutely fantastic. The staff and owner were so good to us and make you feel at home. You get pampered and they don't let you raise a finger. They want you to relax and enjoy and we did for sure!
4.9
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this property. It's a wonderful retreat . Rooms are beautiful and you have access to a semi-private beach, amazing food (try the ceviche), drinks, and kayaks/paddleboards on property. The drive into town is easy via golf cart.
The staff was accommodating and helped coordinate our excursions.
Say hi to Spartacus (the dog) for me. I hope to see him and the staff again.
4.9
The staff were all extremely friendly and helpful! They were so attentive and made sure we had an enjoyable stay.
The hotel is located in a nice quiet area, and is well maintained. We stayed in the Stone room and it was pretty soundproof and provided more privacy than the other rooms as it was off at the end. The food and drinks were amazing! Especially the ceviche :)

Incredible relaxing hotel to stay! We greatly enjoyed the staff and the owners made us feel at home. They helped us with our stay and went above and beyond! The bartender is a genius and really blew us away with the service. If we visit the area again this is the only place we will stay! Plus the dog Sparticus is amazing!

My wife and I loved the property and the food. Bella and Aracely catered to all of our food requests. Everyone was friendly. Lyzz help us organize activities and places to eat outside the property and Forrest was a great host.

Playa de Sala was a beautiful small hotel with a wonderful staff. It was a bit far from town but as our stay continued, we enjoyed this secluded aspect of our vacation.
4.9
The attentive service by the owner and staff were amazing. Our flight from Belize City was arranged for us as well as our golf cart rental. My husband mentioned to the owner an excursion to Caye Caulker which would have had us take a water taxi from San Pedro to our destination and she arranged for a boat to pick us up at the resort for an all day snorkel trip along with a visit to Caye Caulker. Bella and Arabella at the restaurant are super amazing and the food was so great is was hard to try all the other places in San Pedro on our list. Lester at the bar was great! Our room was spacious comfortable and the view was amazing. We would highly recommend Playa De Sala when traveling to San Pedro.

Best vacation ever! A true home away from home at Playa de Sala from the moment I arrived with the staff greeting us, a welcome cocktail (that was inventive & delicious) and tour which led us to our beautiful room with AMAZING VIEWS! I stayed two weeks at Playa and loved every minute. The food from Salas kitchen is unparalleled on the island. I chose to eat all of my meals there after the 3rd day of bad food elsewhere. I was treated like family by the girls from Salas Kitchen when my tummy was acting up because of the “town food” I tried the first few days. They will make you ANYTHING you want, on the menu or not. They made special for me oats for breakfast with blueberries, offered soup for lunch, and whatever was easy on my stomach for dinner...none of which is on the menu. The girls fed me well and I was up to trying everything on the menu, too, after that, so I can say that ALL the menu items were very delicious. My stay was the BEST and I’ll be going back. ASAP!

If you want to be treated like a celebrity while on vacation, this is your spot! The staff were AMAZING! Anything we asked for or about they all went out of their way to make sure we were good. It’s a little bit out of the bustle and bustle of the the city so it’s extremely peaceful and you have you’re very own piece of the beach. The food is arguably the best in the island and it was like having your own personal chef. I’ve never felt more at home on vacation. If I could give them anymore stars they would get all of them! Definitely worth it!

The trip was amazing! I can’t not explain how helpful the staff was. Nyalie helped us through out the whole trip finding adventures for me and best friend to do. They made us feel like we were at home. I definitely recommend coming here whenever you are in Belize. It has such a beautiful view with the pool and private beach.

Shawn and Forest are amazing hosts! Tiny boutique hotel, I would come back and rent the entire thing. Consider darker room curtains to maximize sleeping in. No other suggestions... the place is gorgeous!

We absolutely loved this hotel! We are frequent travelers and have been quite a few places all over the world...this was one of our best trips. Meals made to order, beautiful views, excellent customer service. No need to leave the resort, but if you do, they will help you with getting around, recommendations, anything you need. We were impressed for sure. Looking forward to the next visit!

My stay at Playa de Sala was AMAZING. I stayed in the Spa Room, which was as beautiful in person as advertised. The staff is incredible: very friendly and accommodating. Rooms were clean and the staff caters to you. Food was good as well. It was by far the best hotel I’ve visited. My experience was wonderful and I will definitely be back ASAP.
