Welcome to Playa Del Sol Resort, your private sanctuary on the north side of Ambergris Caye, Belize. Here, the Caribbean breeze, turquoise waters, and lush tropical gardens come together to create a peaceful hideaway designed for relaxation, adventure, and authentic connection.
​From the moment you arrive at our private pier, the island’s magic takes over. Just 800 yards from the Belize Barrier Reef—the second largest in the world—Playa Del Sol offers unmatched access to world-class snorkeling, diving, and fly-fishing.

​Our resort’s architecture blends tropical charm with Mediterranean elegance and Belizean craftsmanship, creating a seamless harmony between indoor and outdoor living. The guest house is bright and airy, featuring high ceilings, expansive windows, and open-plan living and dining areas. Handcrafted hardwood furniture and fine local details bring warmth to each room. Every bedroom includes air conditioning and ceiling fans for your comfort, and the modern, fully equipped kitchen makes cooking a pleasure.

Your stay begins with warm Belizean hospitality: welcome cocktails on arrival, followed by a complimentary first-night dinner featuring Belize’s national favorite — Stew Chicken with Rice & Beans and coleslaw. Vegetarian No worries — we have delicious local options ready for you.

Start each morning with a breathtaking sunrise from the pier. Spend your days relaxing by our pool or exploring the surrounding jungle, home to iguanas, hummingbirds, and ospreys. In the afternoon, unwind with a massage, facial, manicure, or pedicure from our in-house spa services — brought directly to you for total convenience.

At the heart of the resort is El Norte Bar, a lively, barefoot-friendly gathering spot where guests enjoy tropical cocktails, ice-cold local beers, and delicious food. Dine beneath the palms or spend a laid-back afternoon at El Norte with island soul food and ocean breezes. El Norte stays open as long as our guests wish — a place where stories are shared and new friendships form under the stars. Celebrating something special We gladly arrange birthday cakes, private dinners, and intimate events.

When you’re ready to explore more of Belize, our team will help you plan unforgettable adventures — from Mayan ruins and the Blue Hole to cave tubing, zip-lining, the Belize Zoo, and more.

For anglers, Playa Del Sol is paradise. Our location sits in one of Belize’s premier fly-fishing zones, with easy access to world-renowned flats for Bonefish, Tarpon, and Permit. You can even fish right from our private pier using complimentary gear for snappers — perfect for a peaceful evening session.

We’re also proud to be the only resort on the island with an in-house boat service, offering complete flexibility for custom trips, snorkeling adventures, or island-hopping excursions.

Playa Del Sol Resort — where tranquility, comfort, and adventure meet on the edge of the Caribbean Sea.

    We had a nice stay at Iz’s. It was a little farther north than we expected but we adventured around and had a great time.

    Iz and staff are great. The fishing and snorkeling that are included were loads of fun. Iz communicated options clearly and helped with anything we needed. If we ever head back to Belize, Playa del Sol will be where we stay!

    Was ok but there was no clean beach available and the smell of the rotten sarrgrassas algae was really bad.

    If you are looking for a private and secluded getaway than you found it!!! This place is so peaceful and quiet but know that it is also quite a drive from San Pedro town- it is 10 miles north!! So if you plan to cook in the kitchen I suggest getting groceries before coming Also I suggest renting a golf cart so that you can easily explore other parts of this beautiful island El Norte is a little bar as run by this owner that is right on the premises I noticed it was very busy at parts of the day with locals and guests just traveling the north road (some coming or going from margarita ville which is a gorgeous drive about 30 min north on the golf cart path) also el Norte offers delicious lunch and dinner offerings. The shrimp tacos and nachos were soooo good! Iz the owner/ bartender is a colorful and entertaining character who by the end of your trip treats you as a friend not a guest! Also David and Carlos will take you out to fish and snorkel and were so great!! They caught some conch and offered to cook up a fresh civeche upon our return. All in all we had a really great and relaxing vacation in the north beach area

    The house and outside areas were very nice and clean. The beach area was covered in thick sea grass which emitted an aweful smell. But I understand that it helps to prevent erosion. As long as the wind was blowing good, the smell wasn't too bad. I missed hot water, but fortunately the shower wasn't too cold. The people and food were amazing! Anything we may have needed, Iz was happy to help! Our fishing/snorkeling guide, David, and his brother, Oscar, were so kind and fun! The ladies that cooked our catch made such delicious meals! I would recommend visiting Playa Del Sol if you dont mind the seclusion. It is about a 35 minute golf cart ride to San Pedro.

    We had a great time February 10-17. Iz and staff were attentive to all our needs and treated us like family. Food is awesome, the excursions were safe, well planned, and left right from the dock. Although we were a ways out of San Pedro we would recommend staying here for the quiet and proximity to the reef. Great snorkeling and fishing.

    Iz and staff are all very friendly and knowledgeable. We loved that all of our adventures were handled in-house. That kept the costs reasonable and quality very high. We loved hanging out at the bar and being allowed to fix our own drinks. The food was the best we had on the island... so fresh and delicious. We can't wait to get back and see our newfound family.

    What an amazing time!! Iz was very responsive in the booking process. We got all the information we needed. The driver met us at the airport even after catching an earlier flight. The accommodations were comfortable with wonderful a/c. The place was clean and welcoming. The wifi was fast enough to stream a movie at night. But, most nights we hung out at the bar and had amazing dinners or sat in the hammock on the dock under the stars. The family helping Iz were so helpful and fun. David ran the tours and is such a professional. Oscar and David ensured we caught fish, snorkeled, spearfished or conched to our hearts delight. Don’t sweat the sea grass. The secluded location and friendly staff more than make up for it. If you want true beach time, take the golf cart to Secret beach for a day. We had an unforgettable vacation and appreciate everyone there who helped make it happen.

    Our family just returned from 7 night stay at Playa Del Sol. We acquired so many wonderful memories. I highly recommend staying at this property! We felt very safe and the kids were able to play outside with all the friendly dogs. The advertised snorkeling and fishing tours are not your standardized “tourist trap”. David takes great pride in providing a quality experience in the water. Each adventure was personalized and educational. We traveled with our 3 children (9,9, & 4). Iz staffed the boat with an extra guide to ensure safety of our children. David was extremely patient fishing with all of us. We caught 20 fish! We now regret not taking advantage of the full day fishing trip but there is so much to do and not enough time. Don’t plan any tours before arriving. Iz will sit and plan your days with you based around weather and his expert experience. You will need to rent a golf cart. Property is 10 miles from San Pedro (we were thankful to be away from the crowded downtown). We drove into town 2 times, to the truck stop, and to Secret Beach. Some of our favorite memories are from our golf cart adventures. Kitchen is fully equipped but you will want to eat at El Norte (on property). Food is amazing!!! Try the shrimp nachos, Farronato’s Rum punch, and dirty bananas. Dogs on property are friendly and well behaved. Pool was an added bonus. By the time you leave you will feel like you have made lifelong friends and had a true Belize experience! Hoping to return in the future.

    We were wondering about the seagrass problem all over the Caribbean. However after we talked with the owner, we learned that it is just a seasonal issue and will not affect our vacation. He was right! We just returned from literally the vacation of our dreams. This place was an absolute paradise. We rented the 2 bedroom villa which also has a sofa bed in living room. (we were 5 people) I cannot say enough of this place. Watching hunting birds in the tiki bar or relaxing in the balcony. This place hit everything in our list; pool, beachfront, dock, ocean view, pier fishing, fly fishing from the shore. I could go on and on. I have to give a huge shout out to the staff. David (captain), Fernando (bartender) Yuri, Ceci and Jimmy (cooks) went above and beyond. They truly made this place more exceptional than it already was. And big thanks to Iz to build this fantastic place and put all the staff together. A dream vacation! We are already talking about when we can go back! See you guys soon!
