Unfortunately we had to pivot when we wanted to swim in the ocean. The sargassum algae was a major problem here, as well as any other resort along the west coast. They didn't have enough labor or machinery to keep up, which is sad and killing the fish. The smell was horrible. Nothing the Blue Zen could do about it but it was a major deterrent from us returning to Caye Caulker if we decided to come back. If so we would stay on the East side of the island.

The Blue Zen is amazing. The facilities were incredible. The penthouse room reached far above our expectations. Everyone that we met were super nice. The resort was kind of desolate b/c we there during non-peak tourist season. The pools were great to swim in.

The restaurant (Lotus) is small but still amazing food and I really can’t say enough great things about the staff. I’m sure they’ll expand as the location and the area of Caye Caulker develops.

Beautiful location! Everything was always clean, no trash in sight. The staff were top notch. My family felt like royalty because everyone was so friendly and remembered your name. They really looked after us and made us all feel special.

They were very stingy with their coffee pods, you were supposed to get 4 a day. But you always had to ask for them. I would recommend bringing your own pods. They sell them in the store for $5 a piece, which is very pricey

Beautiful resort

The only downside is the overwhelming smell of seagrass. It can also get a bit windy. There is no good snorkeling right off the beach. The water is opaque.

Gorgeous Spot! On the North side of the island. Very quiet. The property is owned by people who don’t live there full-time, so the space is much quieter than other resorts. Nobody fights over pool loungers, which are mostly empty. The hotel has a private boat that runs to and from the village every hour or so. The hours are posted and operate with military precision so it is easy to plan your day. You can also use free bikes or hire a golf cart for USD 35 for two hours. You can cross the split with both the carts and bicycles. If you are heading to “Bliss Beach” near the Blue Zen note that as of writing this, it opens at 11am.

Quiet location, nice clean rooms, great service.

We had typical tropical rains and the unit leaked in 3 locations. One leaked caused one of the air conditioners to fail. Bar chairs in kitchen need replacing. Bicycles need maintenance. Need more chairs at the pool. The penthouse rooftop deck has no furniture or shade structure so it is not worth the extra cost.

Staff is exceptional took care of all our needs. Overall facilities are good. Quiet place. Grounds are in good condition. Pool was very clean and well maintained.

The location and the views.

The property is on the north side of Caye Caulker so transportation between the south is on a schedule for the complimentary shuttle

Very luxurious property and staff was very accommodating and friendly

I didn't like that there was little to no option for the countries native food. There should be more native food than non native. Also, I didn't care much for the stairs to get to the room. I would definitely stay again but would request a second floor or first floor.

The rooms were beautiful, and the staff was friendly and helpful. They have multiple pools that can be used.

As previously stated everything went welI when there were little hiccups it was easily taken care of. My concern is that after I got out of the small Sauna pool in the last third area I obtained a Fungus within the groin area that I'm getting treatment for. The 1st and 2nd pools were treated regularly but we didn't see a lot of usage nor treatment for the 3rd one.

Everything was comfortable, beautiful and well taken care of.

It was a bit far from the main area where all the food and liveliness was but they had complimentary boat to transport you.

The property was beautiful, clean, and had great staff!

When lots of people come and restaurant service diminishes Restaurant monopoly , They need a few more restaurants there different types, maybe a Sandwich and Sub shop would be awesome , 80% American tourists but that’s a Great thing not bad at all Bring lots of money for the restaurant

The People who work there are really Customer Service Experts, They know how to make your stay everything you expect and more

Wonderful accommodating staff, the very best woodfired pizza I have ever had. All expectations were exceeded and we will definitely travel again. Kudos to the front staff and the massage therapist . You can definitely tell that the massage therapist has mastered her expertise with muscle anatomy. I am a physician and she knew her triggerpoints extremely well. I need to hire her for my practice, and we could cut down on the pharmaceuticals…

The sawgrasum was a distraction.

I loved the setting and quiet surrondings.

It rained so we couldn't fully enjoy the pools.

Location, staff, food and the rooms (condo style). Loved the amenities and friendly people

Housekeeping several times forgot to restock items. The spa hadn’t provided pedicure supplies so worker provided on her own. Would have been nice to have a complimentary golf cart ride to anywhere on the north side.

The facilities were exceptional! Loved the store and restaurant. Great having washer and dryer. The boat taxi was always reliable. The people were so nice!!
