Family Vacation
Martin made check in and out very easy and had lots of information about the area and places to see during our visit. We had a rental car, but with the house in such a great location, we were able to walk the majority of the time and saved driving for our day trips. The house is clean and well-maintained and right on the beach, so there was always swimming and playing in the sand for our kids (10,13, 16). Stores, fruit stands and restaurants are close to the house and everyone is so friendly. Thank you for sharing this home with us!

Fantastic Stay
We had seen this property when we were in Hopkins about 5 years ago and knew it was the place we wanted to stay at when we came back to Belize. We could not have been happier with our time at MyanHeaven, a slice of heaven right in Hopkins - a beautiful house with wonderful beds and bedrooms, well appointed kitchen, gorgeous peaceful veranda, feet from the beach, easy walking distance to resturants, groceries, vegetable stands and the Thongs Cafe (great food). We could not have had a more wonderful week in paradise. Many thanks to Martin the property manager who was very attentive and to Katrina the owner. We are looking forward to a return stay.

Absolutely gorgeous house on the beach. Everything is as shown in the photos. The house has Everything you could need…lots of towels, dishes etc. sunrise on the deck or evening drinks, equally beautiful. There is a fruit and veg stand across the street and a great restaurant Siomarra that serves local food at great prices. There are a number of grocery stores within walking distance. This is the perfect spot for some R&R.

My 50th. Birthday Trip!
The property is located in a wonderful seaside village, where fishing is the main source of income after tourism. Stay here twice now, and the village of Hoppens is everything if you want a mellow Caribbean vacation. The wonderful people and it is closest to all types of attractions, ruins, etc.. and like I said, the house is amazing!

This place is amazing. Martin was so welcoming and helpful. Beds are so comfortable! Walking distance to many restaurants, shops, grocery stores, etc. The only negative I have is it does not have a washer or dryer, so if you are staying for a long period this could be an issue.

The house is beautiful, nicely layed out, well secured, comfortable, and the aircondition worked very well. Some suggestions: *Get the airconditioners on prior to arrival of guests *Have a check list of things to turn on and make sure all aminities are on or in operation: microwave, water heater *We left a list of things that need to be replaced. Thank you for the general clean up after the first week stay. Martin checked on us regularly.

Location is the strong point
This is a beautiful home in a fantastic location. Having direct access to shaded beach first thing in the morning, is amazing. Hopkins is a very fun little village with plenty to do. We rented bicycles one day and had a blast riding around the little village. The overall experience is great, but for the price the home should get some general updates to the fixtures, hardware, and pest control.

Amazing place to stay in the heart of Hopkins
The house is wonderful! Waking up to the sound of the surf in an extremely comfortable bed is otherworldly. Lots of room with everything you need, the house is well appointed and beautifully decorated. We loved our stay there and would do it again in a heartbeat. Only quibble is the pack of local dogs sounding the alarm at dawn each morning.

Wonderful stay in Hopkins!
Stay here...just do it! The house is wonderful, we were right on the beach and felt super safe. We ate at Thongs cafe multiple times, just a couple steps away. Fun to be amongst the locals. Some trash does wash up on the beach daily, but once you do a quick clean-up it really is lovely! Thanks again- we enjoyed our stay in the lovely town of Hopkins.

Relaxing beach stay
Had a great time here. The house was larger than we needed for two of us but very comfortable with. Views from every room. The AC worked great. We spent most of our time on the beach or lanai. A couple more lounge chairs could be needed if more than 2 people staying. A paddle board or kayak would have been welcomed but the water was clear and warm. The beds were very comfortable but there are some very close barking dogs if you are a light sleeper. Easy walking to stores and restaurants. Things next door is a gem. Would definitely return

My Heaven
My family stayed in Hopkins before, only further down the road and loved it. However , this place made our stay Heavenly! The place is gorgeous with a view to die for and on top of that the beds are amazingly comfortable! It was like sleeping on a bed of marshmallows. The hammock was torn which would have been an issue for me but it happens a lot and I started to travel with my own, lol problem fixed. The area is more on the local side which I love with great places to eat. They had a few items for younger kids but we got hooked on the bocce ball ( funny we have at home and no one ever plays) and the end of the day. Definitely would recommend and would come back to stay. Chris

Very comfortable house and beds. House had everything we needed. Fun to be right on the beach. Felt neighborhoody and safe. Some reviews mention it being a grandiose house among neighbors, while it is a very nice house it doesn’t feel/look out of place. And yes there’s some plastic that washes up, but the water is great. We swam almost every day.
