Tobacco Caye is a tiny island approx 40 minutes from Dangriga Belize. The 4.5 acre island hosts your stay with many activities. Scuba Diving is amazing, also snorkeling. The protected reef along the barrier wall has endless underwater opportunities. The reef is a hot spot for puffer fish, baricuda, blue spotted rays, eagle rays, and more. Night life is good,... More

Tobacco caye is small with almost all the sand taken up by small establishments and local house. The lodge is like an old fishing establishment, very rustic, cold showers, hammocks on porch, bare lightbulbs good view and shaded. Food was okay. If I was to go again I probably would book with TOBACCO CAYE PARADISE LODGE as the food was... More

If you can get past the fairly gross bathrooms and you can be happy with very minimal amenities, Tobacco Caye Lodge is great place to lay your head. The beach bar is also run by the TCL management. We were told that the previous management kept it cleaner, which would not be hard to do. Still, the food was tasty... More

The rating of 5 stars is for the island itself and natural surroundings. Some of the best snorkeling in the world no doubt. Seriously it's incredible. Huge rays dwarfing you swimming right by you off shore. It truly is magical. The stars at night are just unbelievable. You may think you've seen great stars in your life. Nothing will compare...

My husband and I have been visiting Tobacco Caye for over eight years. You may ask, why go back to the same place every year? remember what is was like pulling up to a family reunion and all of your cousins were there? That is what visiting Tobacco Caye and then revisiting is like. Ths is where Belizeans come to... More

My wife and I arrived on Jan 7th 2011 and what we arrived to was such a disappointment . From a distance, it looked like total piece of paradise. The ride from Dangriga in the skiff was nice and calm, it took about 45 minutes, no complaints there. So here we go, Marta, the Manager met my husband and I... More

The island itself is great in terms of snorkeling and other sea activities but the actual island was kind of trashy. Dumps of broken bottles, appliances and conk shells and busted up half finished buildings everywhere. For such a small island there was a lot of abandoned building projects and broken things. If you encounter bad weather as I did,... More

agree with most - did some extensive searches for a caye/island experience with off shore snorkelling - i got slammed by the expensive prices for shabby digs all around -heck i have been to the maldives which is as pristine as it gets with exclusive water bungalows deserving the 400 use/night-then i came across tc lodge-frentically i emailed barbara and...

Went to TCL for about a week. Of my 3 months in Belize, my only regret is not staying at this beautiful place for longer. It is one of about 3-5 hotels on a 5 acre island. We left our window open at night and could hear the ocean. I'd wake up and look out to see the sun and... More
