Belize is expensive, so if you'd rather spend your money on snorkeling or SCUBA, save by booking a room at Corona del Mar. Very clean, big bed, huge room, A/C & ceiling fan. The room had a microwave, bar fridge, and coffee maker so you can buy groceries and save even more money. Also a small security lockbox.
Staff were exceptionally friendly and helpful. You can book excursions right at the desk. Free coffee and water in the lobby.
Small pool, but very nice. Beach chairs under big palm trees. Soft sand. The ocean is accessible by some slippery stairs down from the sea wall. Shallow water. There is a dive shop right out front, but I found it to be more expensive than other options. (I personally did snorkel trips with Searious Adventures.)
I was disappointed with the food at the on-site restaurant but I only went once. Other guests said they had nice meals there.
Weird thing is that the TV didn't have cable, just YouTube, Tubi, and you could log on to your Netflix account.
There is a small bar across the road that had loud music and karaoke on the weekends. It's also a restaurant but I didn't eat there.
It's about a 15-minute walk into the center of San Pedro town. Faster if you rent a golf cart. Walking along the beach is nicer than the road.

I am not to sure where to start on this!! Corona is like family to me!! To the amazing staff, amazing views, charm, and just the real feel of Belize!! I have been coming to Corona since the early 2000!! It never disappoints!! I am now a travel agent and I bring my own groups here!! They are welcoming accommodating! It’s not your typical hotel but for us it’s great! Miss. Lopez and the staff work hard to make sure you are always happy! And all the staff always has a smile on their face!! Thomas and Cruz the night security is amazing too!! You will always get a smile! My son got engaged to his fiancé and now we will be back to celebrate a Belize wedding!! They have been so helpful in the process! You’re missing out if you don’t give them a try!!

The hotel and pool are “loved.” It isn’t a new and pristine establishment. That said, what amazing service! Friendly and knowledgeable. Always reliable. It has charm! We were on a budget and very happy with our decision to stay at Hotel Corona Del Mar. Beautiful beach (we even got massages on the beach!), the attached bar and restaurant was convenient but not one of our favorites. Room was cleaned daily, sheets always smelled fresh. We loved having a full kitchen to help us keep costs down. They do laundry for a small fee. The vibe was comfortable and welcoming. Really, just charming!!!!
