I am conflicted writing this review. I'd love to give the people who do a great job working at the resort credit, but as a dog owner and a dog lover, I must do the right thing and tell you why I will not give this resort good reviews or even mediocre. There is a dog present on the premises known as Dakota and we've been told she is a "family dog". She belongs to the owner of the resort. The owner is an American who also owns several others in the area and travels a lot, leaving Dakota in the resort.The staff sometimes feeds her scraps from left over diners. We've been told she was fed regularly, but that was not so. I checked her bowl frequently, and it was empty. When she was finally fed and I saw was she was getting in her bowl, I cried and was appalled at the same time. Mostly rice and some beans covered with garlic and onions sauces, which are toxic to dogs. She is skin and bones, covered with scabs, and her poop was full of blood (we took her for walks). She is a beautiful black German Shephard with incredible personality, but suffering in silence at the resort owned by a person who could afford to provide better care for his "best friend." We've seen stray dogs on the streets of San Pedro who'd been better off than the "family dog" of a person with means. So, if you are like us and love dogs and are planning to stay at one of his resorts, please check on Dakota and if she doesn't improve, follow our lead. We've got her a bed, because she'd been sleeping on concrete with

Reef Shark room
Love this place! First time for us. Second time for our friends. Staff very friendly and helpful. We stayed in the Reef Shark room. Our friends were in Barracuda and another. Super cute bungalows with kitchens. We will be back and would probably choose different one that has kitchen. Ours didn’t have a kitchen but wasn’t a big deal.

We stayed in the Barracuda bungalow. It was perfect—one bedroom, full kitchen, covered deck, adequate WiFi, quiet, powerful a/c, plenty of space—for what we needed. Space is maximized at BV, so the bungalows are pretty tight but neither noise nor traffic were a problem. Food was good, drinks were great. Staff really couldn’t be any better. They’re friendly, helpful & always available. There is no beach, but rather a long pier. Be sure to take advantage of the free kayak. You will need a golf cart if you plan on spending any time in San Pedro (which you should). Some might see this as an inconvenience, but I really enjoyed driving around town, immersed in the hustle & bustle. Navigation, from the south end of the island all the way to Secret Beach was not a problem, even w/o mobile service.

Oh my goodness we LOVED Bella Vista Resort. It was tough to leave! What an absolute hidden gem. The staff not only became friends but family. Going far above and beyond to make sure every need we had was met! The restaurant surprised us with extra special Anniversary treatment. Drinks were delicious, plenty of AF options! Food was out of this world! The rooms are beautiful and each unique. The massages on site were phenomenal. We loved the pool and live music. Our trip was different since we were amid hurricane beryl however the owners and staff stuck around and made sure we were safe at all times! The location is quiet and hidden but super convenient when taking a golf cart around San Pedro! We cannot wait to visit again! Best Anniversary Trip Ever!!!!! Thank you guys!!!

We really enjoyed our stay at Bella Vista. The whole staff was engaging and friendly and really worked together to make all their guests happy and comfortable. We stayed in the sea turtle room and my first thought was, oh no this is going to be noisy! But honestly it was great. The music and live entertainment was very mellow and low key. After dinner we sat in our room and just enjoyed listening. Restaurant closed at 10 so it was never an issue. The pool was great and never crowded. We were blessed with breakfast included and let me tell you it was wonderful! Actually every meal we ate there was wonderful and drinks as well. Ms. Linda went above and beyond to make our stay exceptional. I loved the fact that included was transportation from and to the San Pedro airport was included. Honestly everything was perfect, and I could go on. Thanks to a great staff that works so well together. I hope we are able to return.
