My girlfriend, and I spent a week at Tricia's place and it was everything we were looking for. We went during what is considered the off season in July, and basically had the whole beach to ourselves. The apartment was perfect for just two of us. We mainly just ate breakfast in the apartment, and had the rest of our meals in town. Tricia gave us plenty of recommendations for activities, and places to eat while we where there which came in handy. As far as location the apartment is in walking distance to anything you want to do or eat in Hopkins. If you want to venture out for some day trips Tiger fern fall is an easy drive, and also Xunantunich mayan ruins was very do able day trip. We didn't pay for the day air conditioning, and were completely fine with the breeze cooling off the apartment. Overall the experience was amazing, and if you are looking for more of a local and non touristy vacation, staying in Hopkins at Tricias beach front apartments will be perfect.
