Tripadvisor’s approach to reviews
Before posting, each Tripadvisor review goes through an automated tracking system, which collects information, answering the following questions: how, what, where and when. If the system detects something that potentially contradicts our community guidelines, the review is not published.
When the system detects a problem, a review may be automatically rejected, sent to the reviewer for validation, or manually reviewed by our team of content specialists, who work 24/7 to maintain the quality of the reviews on our site.
Our team checks each review posted on the site disputed by our community as not meeting our community guidelines.

We loved our stay at White Sands Cove! Very welcoming with a community feel. Great bar & restaurant on site with Kamronne and Ashanti happy to serve you each day. Rosie was there at the front desk to help with anything you needed. In addition to spending time at La Cala Bar & Grille on site, we also enjoyed eating at The Garage, Aji's, and Marbuck's. Always like the music at the Palapa Bar in town. Secret Beach and a day trip to Caye Calker were fun. We enjoyed the north location and will be more than happy to return!!!

Everything about White Sands Cove says welcome - the fabulous staff (Rosie at the desk, Ashanti and Kamronne at La Cala bar and restaurant), the well-maintained grounds and pool, the other guests, the delicious food! This was our second time there, and we will definitely be back. I personally like the cooler weather in December, and there are fewer tourists in the time between Thanksgiving and Christmas - and San Pedro celebrates the holiday with a tree lighting, street fair, and festive lights all over town. White Sands is very close to popular spots like The Truck Stop, 303 Bar, and only about 30 minutes from Secret Beach. Great location, great people! And -- the cornhole tournament was awesome!

Our week at White Sands Cove was perfect. The units had everything we needed and were beautifully decorated. Paulina, in housekeeping, made sure our room was tidy and well-stocked. The grounds and pool were spotless. Mike and Alex took care of everything outside. Both so friendly, and quick with suggestions and information about the area. We enjoyed every time we saw them. The beach here is not good for swimming, but it is only a 20 minute golf cart ride to Secret Beach. Food and drinks at La Cala were to-die-for. Ashanti attended our every need at the bar, restaurant and pool area. She was always friendly and also offered suggestions of things to enjoy during our stay. Rosie, in the office, was a doll. She made phone calls for us to reschedule the water taxi, shuttle, etc. Always smiling and helpful. The staff goes the extra mile, for sure!

We (4 of us) rented one of the bungalos for a week (5-8-23/5/14/23) What an awsome place, right on the water!! The wait staff at the bar were incredible, so nice and friendly. The food was great too, free coffee every morning and a nice breakfast, lunch, dinner and appetizer menu. The bar owners, Kelly and Beth, were almost as awsome as their little furry friends, Georgie and Ruthie who wandered around the pool area saying hello to everyone! Would definelty reccomend this place and go there again! It was awsome!

We had a wonderful stay at White Sands Cove. We were happy with the location, grounds and the apartment. The cafe/bar, La Cala, served great food and drinks, and the staff was remarkably efficient and very friendly. We’d definitely stay there next time.

such a beautiful clean resort, somewhat quiet which is what we were looking for, you will definitely want to rent a golf cart so its easy to go into San Pedro and or secret beach etc....we had two couples, two rooms each with private bath, living room and full kitchen...the grounds are spot less, the staff are so accommodating and pleasant, the food is good and you can also walk to other nearby places safely....beautiful pool, and we were able to picked up at their dock to go out snorkelling for the day I would highly recommend staying here.

What a lovely place! The staff are so helpful with everything and extremely friendly. They helped us will all of our excursion bookings and getting the golf cart rental. beautiful views and convenient to many things. We had three kids with us (6.8 and 10) and the villas were comfortable with plenty of room. We saw dolphins, fish and rays right off the white sands pier.

My brother booked a surprise vacation for my parent's 50th anniversary. I'm usually the one that's very involved in finding the places to go...but my brother tried to book Captain Morgan's because my parents had been there in 2014 (which was booked) but a guy at Captain Morgan's suggested White Sands Cove, so my brother called them & booked right away. We communicated with Rosie for a few months (probably about 6 months) for all of the arrangements that 3 different families needed/wanted. We arranged the golf carts, the tours, massages, meal plans etc. all in advance of our arrival. Everything worked out perfect & Rosie even schedule the massages in between the activities she had booked for us. Usually we're trying to book everything individually but having Rosie's help was really a key part to us having a relaxing vacation! The resort was really nice, the pool was fun for the kids and there was a view of the ocean, but there were blooms on the whole island from the kelp (?) so you couldn't go into the ocean at our resort. We were a short 30 min drive from Secret Beach & town. There was house keeping every other day, the whole resort was very tidy & well kept. The bar/restaurant onsite was great. The bartenders were always friendly & nice. But the cook, Karen was something else! We had a group of 10 so if we were going to eat a meal together we'd try to submit our orders the night before so we didn't delay the kitchen if anyone else was there. I peaked into the kitchen on the last night & Karen made miracles happen every time we ate together. I think she was the only one cooking & cleaning up the kitchen, but she'd get 10 plates of food out at the same time by herself. AMAZING Karen even went through the extra effort of making a nicely decorate table for my parent's 50th anniversary dinner. It was a great place & I'd defiantly visit White Sands Cove again if we go back to Belize

Just got back from wonderful trip to Belize and the White Sands Cove Resort. The staff is welcoming and accomodating. Rosie went out of her way to assist us with every part of our trip from the airport tranport and changing our flights back to the mainland, to the covid test, golf cart rental and scuba trip. Isaiah was a great bartender/waiter. The few meals we had on the property were very good. The property is beautiful and peaceful. The cottage was perfect for us.

My son and I stayed four nights at White Sand Cove on Ambergris Caye in Belize. We had booked a one bedroom garden view, but upon arrival were upgraded to a two bedroom with an ocean view. The room was clean and spacious. What a much appreciated surprise! John and Rosie in the front office were so accommodating and all the staff were incredibly friendly and helpful. The chef at the restaurant made some wonderful breakfasts and dinners for us and Israel at the bar was a gem! We met some fun people at the pool bar gatherings and learned a fun Belizean dice game called "3's". Big shout out to Bill for teaching us that and lending us his golf cart one night. Also a shout out to Mike and Steve who were very fun to hang with. White Sand Cove resort is a laid back, beautiful community of good people right on the beach. It's only a 12 minute golf cart ride back to town and all the restaurants, palapa bars and conveniences. A great place to stay, relax and take in all the wonders of Belize.
