While you are out on tour trekking through gnarly jungle mud or floating over spectacular coral formations, Chef John is busy locating the freshest fish, the tastiest vegetables, and sometimes the kitchen staff after a long night out. By the time you’re ready for dinner, everything and everyone is ready to go. Our style is very casual but we still pay attention to the details that make dining enjoyable. Taste, creativity, presentation, service. We love food and wine but we don’t try to make it too fancy. Think of it as dressed up tropical comfort food.
The Bistro is open from 7am – 9pm serving breakfast, an all-day menu, and dinner.
The Maya Beach Hotel is a small beachfront resort in the Placencia area of Southern Belize. Accommodations range from inexpensive, beach-basic rooms to larger, more contemporary suites. We’re in an area with quick access to organized tours including fishing, diving, snorkeling and inland adventures, offering a nice, quiet place to lift your fork and lay your head at the end of the day. The Maya Beach Hotel Bistro has been awarded “Restaurant of the Year” by the Belize Tourism Board, and serves meals all day on the beach and by the pool.
