The diving is incredible - the variety of dive sites, the variety of fish, sharks, rays turtles superb.  The dive masters were enthusiastic and professional.  Meanwhile the resort is beautiful, the vibe very chilled and the food delicious.  Thanks so much to the whole resort team for a wonderful holiday.

Fabulous dive holiday!

Fantastic choice for a great dive vacation! The resort is the only thing on the island, so it is all about diving. A more out of the way Atoll. Great low key island vibe. 3 dives a day and they were great dives across the board. The dive team on the boat was wonderful, friendly, safe, professional, and fun. My wife and I and our 20 year old daugthter could not have asked for more. My daughter did her AOW and it was taught by the two managers, Serena and Shadi, both were fantastic. The rest of the resort team was also top notch, great rooms, great food and wonderful open air bar for once the days diving was done. The diving is so close you come back to the resort for your surface interval between morning dives most days. This was great, the boat trips are short and extra time is not wasted (and you get a delicious snack and a bathroom). You will not be disappointed diving and relaxing at Blackbird. In the last year we dove Gand Cayman, Cayman Brac and Bonaire. Blackbird was the best resort, and the diving was tied with Brac. Go now.

A must dive destination!

I LOVED our stay at Blackbird!  The rooms very very spacious and comfortable, the food was excellent, the diving was great, and the staff was SUBERB!!!! Roy, Simon, Carlos, Kurt, Jose, Amir, George, and everyone else on staff that helped with the food and cleaning  - you all were truly wonderful! Your care and attention to to the guests  really made the week memorable.  The main GM and his girlfriend came later in the week and we hardly interacted with them which was fine because the rest of the staff was truly amazing.

The diving was great!  It was my first time in Belize and I was surprised at the amount of wildlife we experienced on the dives.  All the dive guides also made it extremely easy by changing out all of our equipment between dives and making each trip extremely easy on the guests.  I was also very impressed at the quality of the rental equipment - everything seemed newer and even the BCD's had integrated weights which isn't common for rentals.

The only down side is that the pool was closed most of the week we were there and wasn't ready for use until the main GM arrived with the pump that was needed to repair the pool.  It wasn't a big deal since most days were spent on a boat instead of on land but it would have been nice to have the pool the entire week.

A great week diving in Belize

A great place to get away! From the first interaction at the airport through our parting good-byes my wife and I were well-taken care of and felt safe the entire time. I saw one reviewer suggesting to leave you shoes at home and it turned out to be great advise. It may seem small, but we removed our shoes upon our arrival and didn't need them again until it was time to go home....hard to understand if you've not been, but you'll quickly adapt.

The food was amazing and the diving was spectacular! Seventeen dives in seven days! The dive team helped everyone feel comfortable from the most experienced to the one getting certified during their stay. 

There is internet in the dining room and bar, which is plenty enough to check up on work and update social media to the envy of your friends. 

If there are a couple tips that I can share it would be to check with the resort on the timing of the boat leaving the marina to reduce your wait time. We arrived early out of Miami and waited about five hours before the boat was to leave and on the return take a later flight out of Belize City so that you can take the resort boat back. We had an earlier flight, so we had to take the small plane from the resort, which is a beautiful experience, but it's a few extra bucks.

All in all a great trip with a terrific staff in all areas!

A Great Vacation spot with Awesome Diving!

Excellent diving on the Whitconcert. A new 350 ft wreck, which is beginning to attract large fish. This a wonderful addition to their house reef. Most of the dive sites were with in 5- 6 minutes of the resort. Captain Geo and our divemaster Elron were wonderful. We enjoyed the Blue Hole, Half Moon Wall and Aquarium with sightings of white tip sharks and eagle rays. The resort staff were amazing. Their were always will to provide support. The  drinks and food were great. Truly a 5 star experience. 

Best  Diving in Belize with 5 Star Resort Experience 

Our trip to Blackbird Caye was exceptional!  The accommodations were perfect.  Super comfortable beds, linens, towels.  The shower-bathroom was luxurious and so welcome after a full day of scuba diving.  Our dining experience left us full and satisfied:   so much food which was beautifully prepared and presented.  The views from all aspects of the property are worthy of a postcard!  

Can't wait to go back to Blackbird Caye Resort

This resort is amazing! It is secluded and off the beaten path and absolutely stunning. The staff is superb and very attentive. The food was fantastic and presented nicely. The dive staff is excellent and the diving even better. This is truly a resort to relax and enjoy without technology and daily demands. Blackbird Caye is one of the most enjoyable resorts I have visited.  

Fantastic Resort

10/10 all around! The diving, the accommodations, the staff, and certainly the food!! I book all of our travels based on reviews, so I always write a fair and honest review. Our stay at Blackbird Caye Resort was a dream! The staff is amazing- they went above and beyond to make sure everything was perfect. The location is remote (a nearly 2 hour boat ride from Belize City on a beautiful new dive boat). That was part of the fun! You are at the "mercy" of the other guests who happen to book the same week. Boy did we luck out. We had a great group of travelers the same week. Our accommodation (one of the newer Villas) was 5 Star!! The housekeeping staff did an incredible job each day, going above and beyond to make it perfect. I want to give a special shout out to the boat crew who kept us safe and worked their tails off for many hours each day- Brian and Geo. We still think you should have a wheelbarrow to cart the tanks back and forth! You will be spoiled by an incredible kitchen staff, including Kurt and Jose, who will take care of your every need. The chef, sous chef and head baker could be at any 5 Star restaurant in the states. The food is truly that good! And plenty of it. 
Every day was simply perfect and it will always be one of our favorite adventures! 


Amazing! 10/10

In a word, this dive vacation at BLACKBIRD CAYE RESORT was WONDERFUL!!! We made 14 dives while at the Blackbird Caye Resort...and everyone of them memorable. The folks who run the place, Serena and Shaddy do a magnificent job from managing the resort as well as the dive facilities and dive staff. Our dive master, Raul and Boat Captain Gio were outstanding in briefing us on each dive, getting us promptly to all dive locations, ensuring the safety of each diver and for my Wonderful Lovely Wife and me (both over 75), making sure both of us were comfortable getting into and out of the sea and through our dive. The dives themselves were OUTSTANDING with excellent visibility, loads of reef fish, turtles, rays and sharks. My wife and I have been diving since '06 and have been fortunate enough to dive in a number of places all over the world. Turneffe Atoll's waters may BE SOME OF THE BEST DIVING WE'VE ENCOUNTERED since our initial certification. These waters we dove may  have some of the healthiest coral we've encountered in years as well as the abundance of underwater wildlife. Again, every dive we make (14 in all) were OUTSTANDING.  
Besides the excellent dive master Raul and Captain Gio, Serena (a PADI director we believe) taught and trained our Son and his fiancee for advance open water certification. She did an EXCELLENT job in getting these kids AOW certified in a well controlled and efficient matter. Again, she took the time and made every effort to ensure Matt and Felicia were well trained to qualify for their AOW certification test.
Will we go back? ABSOLUTELY! The diving was GREAT; the food and refreshment Great; the rooms and their cleaness were Great; and most importantly, the Resort and Dive Staffs and Management were....and I'll say it again....WONDERFUL & OUTSTANDING! Thank you, Roger
