Visiting Hopkins for a family wedding, we couldn't have asked for a better location. Mark and Sabrina were amazing hosts; they were always available to answer questions, provide recommendations, or help arrange activities- shout out to Happy Go Lucky Tours. The location is amazing- close enough to restaraunts and town, but with so much privacy. We stayed with our parents and sons (5 and 2). There was plenty of room for everyone, the house is immaculate- thank you Ms. Juanna! We started every morning playing in the sand, and ended the day in the private tiki bar. Truly an unforgettable experience, we can't wait to return!

Hello guys and thank you for the review. We hope you are all doing well and will come back sometime soon.

This property is amazing. We traveled with 3 adults and 2 young children (5 and 2) and we had an amazing stay at Villa Rising Sun. The property was immaculately prepared and ready for our arrival. The owners even stocked the refrigerator with the groceries we asked for. The beach was clean and got raked every couple of days so you would wake up to freshly manicured sand. The house was plenty big for the 5 us and had all the amenities you could ask for with kids. (board games, frisbees, soccer balls, etc) The housekeeper came every day and would reset the house. The owners upstairs were there when we needed them, but gave us all the space you would want to enjoy the family time. They helped us book our tours and came thru on every request that we came up with. Even helping track our travel issues and flight cancellations. We were down here for a wedding and the location to the resorts was ideal. My family and I had an amazing time in Belize and can not recommend this property any more highly. I can't wait to visit this property again and see our new friends.

It was such a pleasure for all of us to meet your beautiful family and it was great you all got to enjoy some of the activities Belize has to offer. We certainly hope you will come back for a visit once things get back to normal. Be safe and know you have new friends in Belize!

This house is amazing! The hosts Mark and Sabrina are wonderful. Its a little piece of paradise. Definitely recommend. Cant imagine staying anywhere else!

Four of us girls stayed for 8 nights and it was awesome. The pictures don’t do the place justice. Super clean. Mark and Sabrina are the owners live up stairs- don’t let that be a negative in your thinking to book it, they are the friendliest and most helpful people you will ever meet. There is 6” of concrete between you and no one will hear your noise. They are not intrusive and are like having a concierge on site. We chose to engage with them and thoroughly enjoyed their company, there was so much about the local area and people they were able to tell us about. They hooked us up with Shelly (a local cook) and she made us dinner at the house. We invite her and her assistant Brenda to eat with us and asked Mark and Sabrina to join us and we had the best time ever. Mark knows everybody here and took us for a tour the first day so we could meet the locals and learn where everything was. We took a snorkeling trip to the reef and were picked up right on the dock at the house. The reef is phenomenal’ second largest in the world and you will not find formations this large anywhere. The ocean floor was and entire reef and there were place where I could swim underwater through trenches and the coral walls towered over me. I swear I saw a 2 bedroom apartment sized brain coral too!! We saw a couple of manatees near the dock and also pelicans and frigate birds diving for fish. We had an Agouti and a Coatimundi visit us almost daily At the house to munch on our left over veggies. That was pretty special. You can also meet Tango who is a local celebrity at “Shake-it” and also Mark and Sabrina’s dog. She is so lovable and got me my dog fix every day. They have a kayak and we used it to go around the point where a flock of Pelicans were roosting and they didn’t mind us at all. They crash landed within 15 feet of us. Loved it and Mark Sabrina made even better!!!!

Wolf, You and the gals were wonderful. The perfect guests and we would so much like you guys to come back. Cheers from Sunny Belize ;)

We took our family to Villa Rising Sun for Thanksgiving week and it could not have been nicer. Beautiful location right on the beach, private. Hopkins is a small town of 1800 with a nice mix of expats and Belizeans. Many nice homey restaurants. The owners of the house are on site and Mark and Sabrina were delightful. Mirko arranged outings and we had a cook come in several days to cook fresh fish for our group. Great snorkeling several miles off the coast, We had a wonderful time.

Hello Greg and thanks for your review. I hope you and your family are able to come back.

We stayed yet again at Villa Rising Sun! Can’t say enough great things about this place. It is like home away from home. Spotlessly clean inside and out. The beach is stunning and the dock is a great place to hang out. Mark, Sabrina, and Tango are the perfect hosts! We always love staying at Villa Rising Sun!

We stayed at Villa Rising Sun for 6 nights. Our experience was fantastic and we loved our time here. The property is spacious, private, clean, with a fully stocked kitchen to prepare meals and everything is very well maintained. The location is also great. You are close enough to stores, restaurants and the things Hopkins has to offer, but in an area where you feel like you are at your own private resort. Mark and Sabrina are awesome hosts. They ensured we had everything we needed to make our time in Hopkins that much more comfortable and enjoyable/memorable. Cheers Mark and Sabrina, and thank you! Mirko was great, and always responsive. Assisting with various questions throughout the reservation process, coordinating transportation to and from the airport, putting us in touch with James to get a golf cart, and booking all of our excursions, and making the process virtually seamless for us. We just needed to know what time to be ready to leave, and the rest was taken care of. Mirko removed a lot of the things that can be stressful during vacation - allowing us to focus more on enjoying our time and the activities we chose to do. On a couple of the evenings during our stay, we also asked Shelly to prepare some authentic local meals for us. Once we chose from the suggestions she made, she picked up the groceries and brought everything over to the villa to cook the meals. The food was absolutely delicious, and another one of the great experiences we had during our time staying at Villa Rising Sun! Unfortunately, our vacation had to end, but thank you all for the memories! Overall, we had a great experience from start to finish, and loved our time at Villa Rising Sun. My family and I would highly recommend this property if your travels take you to this area.
