We ate breakfast here 3 times. Anything from the Belziean breakfast to huevos rancheros. They have great mango jelly for their fry jacks. The waiter, Phillip, was nice. The owners Kirsten and emilio were very informative and nice. They have made quite the place down there.

I stayed here for several days of my trip to Ambergris Caye. The Yoga practice was exceptional and embraced all levels of Yogis. Kirsten was a wonderful guide. Emilio was a very pleasant gentleman and as I am looking to possibly become a resident of the island he was a wealth of information. The food was amazing(and inexpensive by Island... More

Didn't stay here but ate dinner here twice. The pizza was made fresh and delicious. Got a chicken quesadilla and it was phenomenal! By far one of the cheapest places to eat outside of San Pedro. Breakfast menu and prices looked great but we did not get a chance to have breakfast there.

Our group was staying at Belizean Shores and heard about the Morning Yoga classes taught over the water. It was fantastic! The instructor Kristen knew just how to guide us through the class (our group varying fitness levels). Afterwards, we had breakfast at the resort and it was by far the best meal of the trip and very reasonable. The... More

This was our first stop in Belize and we could not have picked a better spot! The staff was great and all of the guests were super friendly. Once a year the ocean washes up garbage from various ship wreaks, hurricanes, illegal dumping etc. making our beach time unpleasant but the residents do their best to keep it clean. A... More

Yoga barracks are a great deal ($) for Ambergris but we stayed in an ocean front cabana. Excellent sea breeze but not nearly as good a value. Pluses were cool, funky, local decor, fresh water in the room, a great outdoor shower, lovely porch, peaceful ocean views, and cooling sea breeze. Downsides: very laid back and informal environment makes you... More

This is not your ordinary resort. Kirsten & Milio make your stay an authentic experience. Great location, yoga queen extraordinaire, super good prices, and the barracks are the best deal on the island if you are on a budget. You will nit be disappointed.

The first thing I did when I was planning my spring break trip to Belize was to look for where I could practice yoga. I found the website for Ak'bol, but its pictures don't remotely do it justice. Biking to practice yoga under the thatched roof palapa of Ak'bol was a highlight of my trip, as was staying afterwards to... More

I absolutely loved my stay at Ak'bol. The daily yoga was fantastic and the resort is only a short and pleasant bike ride away from San Pedro. I was in Ambergris to scuba dive and the owners of Ak'bol did a wonderful job helping me get in touch with various dive shops. For SCUBA divers, it's extremely easy to dive... More

I stayed at Ak'bol in August 2011. I stayed in a bungalow with my mom for a week and It was fantastic, everyone was welcoming, Milio and Kirsten helped us plan activities during the day and Philip and Ellen were extremely welcoming as restaurant staff. It was incredibly relaxing and an amazing vacation. I hope to return sooner than later!
