Kalimera Beach Hotel — Hotel in Maya Beach

A Slice of Heaven in Placencia – A Stay We’ll Never Forget

From the moment we arrived at Kalimera Beach Hotel, we were embraced with a warmth and hospitality that left us breathless. The level of attention and personalization we experienced was simply beyond anything we’ve ever known. Walking into our stunning room—modern, spacious, and perfectly comfortable—my girlfriend and I found a beautifully designed welcome brochure. It had our names on it and a full itinerary for the week: handpicked tours, local suggestions, and thoughtful touches that made us feel not just welcomed, but truly known.

The location? Absolutely magical. Nestled right on the beach, it feels like a secret paradise. Just steps away, we had countless dining options, all accessible by foot on the soft white sand. And for me, an animal lover at heart, the experience turned surreal when two manatees gracefully swam by, barely 10 meters from shore. It was like watching ballerinas dance in the sea—a memory etched in my soul.

What makes this place unforgettable, though, are the people. Kristy and Victor, the incredible owners, pour their hearts into every detail. Julius is a force of nature, always there, always smiling, always helpful. The front desk and kitchen staff were absolute stars—kind, thoughtful, and full of warmth. And the beach bartender? A magician, serving up cocktails that taste like happiness under the sun.

Before this trip, I didn’t even know where Belize was on a map. Now, thanks to Kalimera, it’s a place that will forever live in my heart. Cleanliness, peace, generosity, joy—it’s all here.

Thank you, truly,...

We had such a wonderful stay at Kalimera Beach Hotel. The entire property is beautifully curated—from the natural plaster walls to the carefully chosen artwork and thoughtful design details in each room. Every element feels intentional and well-executed, a true reflection of beautiful craftsmanship.||The owners were incredibly friendly and welcoming, and the staff was lovely throughout our stay. The pool is absolutely stunning, with a soft, natural plaster finish and surrounded by lush native greenery that gives the whole property a serene, grounded feel.||Our room was spotless and the bed was so comfortable. A sweet dessert treat was waiting for us when we checked in—such a thoughtful surprise. Our 3-year-old was thrilled to discover a set of beach toys in the room, and she had an amazing time playing on the beach and in the pool.||One of the absolute highlights of our stay was the food. The included breakfast was far beyond a typical continental breakfast—it was a full menu of options, from pancakes and fry jacks to omelets and traditional Belizean breakfast. Every dish was delicious; I could honestly eat breakfast there every day.||The self-serve coffee, tea, and fresh juices were another great touch. We also had lunch on-site and loved the relaxed tapas-style lunch menu. The Lebanese platter was a favorite, and their house-made salsa might just be the best I’ve ever had.||Kalimera is a gorgeous place, run by great people, and offers excellent food. We truly enjoyed every part...
