The Great House is in a great location. It is an easy walk to restaurants and bars, as well as the water taxi terminal. There is a bit of construction right now, which is a bit noisy, but that won’t last forever. The staff was very helpful with answering questions and arranging taxis. We enjoyed the peaceful pool area, as well. This is a great place to stay in Belize City! We have stayed here 4 times now and highly recommend it.
