Captain Morgan's Retreat sits directly on a private stretch of white sand beach on Ambergris Caye, about three and a half miles north of San Pedro Town. Guests reach the property by golf cart or boat along the island's northern shoreline, arriving to a cluster of thatched roof cabanas, villas and condo buildings set among coconut palms, two freshwater pools, and a private dock that reaches out into the Caribbean Sea.
Room types span a wide range: simple beach cabanas built right on the sand, one and two bedroom villas, and two and three bedroom condos with full kitchens that sleep up to eight guests. The property also houses the island's only casino, giving evenings here a livelier edge than most Ambergris Caye resorts, alongside an oceanview spa, a beachfront restaurant and bar, and a tour desk that books snorkeling at Hol Chan, fishing charters, and day trips to Mayan sites on the mainland.
The spread of room sizes, from compact cabanas to condos with full kitchens, makes Captain Morgan's Retreat a fit for couples on a beach getaway as much as families or groups who want extra space and the option to cook some of their own meals. Two pools, golf cart and bicycle rentals, and a small onsite grocery store round things out for guests who would rather stay close to the property than head into San Pedro Town for basics.
