Right on the beach in the center of town and near the Tropic ferry and the water taxi. You can even walk from the airport when you get there.
Although it is a far cry from the really nice newer places, it is a solid value. The people are very friendly. I recommend the rooms with a/c. They are not super cold like in the US but they will cool the room enough to make it comfortable.

The Spindrift Hotel is centrally located, close to everything you need. Yammi and the staff are very accommodating and were very helpful when other accommodation fell through. The bar and restaurant are very close to reopening and the rates reflected that those services weren’t available during our stay. It was great security that the beach side entrance is locked at night. Restaurants, the beach and tour operators are steps away. If you want a clean, basic, central hotel then this is the place. Our room had ac, a room safe, tv, comfortable beds, linens and a blanket. Beach towels are available on request

I travelled down to San Pedro from San Ignacio in Cayo, Belize for a day trip on August 9th. Its not long. You catch the early morning bus at about 4:15am, reach Belize City by about 7 am and then make your way by either taxi or foot the mile or so to the San Pedro Belize Express Water Taxi that leaves on its first trip at 8am to the Cayes. The first hour of the beautiful ride you stop at Caye Caulker, then in the next half hour you arrive in San Pedro. The J&H Golf Cart Rental is located very conveniently by a short walk along the beach to the left from where you arrive, go past Estel's Restaurant by the Sea and go up the lane to the corner of the Spindrift Hotel. Jamal or his brother Chris will link you up quickly with an excellent ride and have you on your way exploring.
Most of the things I needed to get done were completed in a few hours but the day was great and one more day would be relaxing. After returning the cart I walked next door and to the front desk of the Spindrift Hotel. A beautiful building, right in town and on the beach. As you enter the lobby it becomes more bright with the light and plants of the central atrium open to the clear blue sky. Checkin with Ms Yami is very friendly and welcoming and you are with key in hand walking up the lovely atrium with the sky above and unobstructed view to the sea ahead and to your room in a few minutes. Many of the rooms with ocean view and balcony as an option and a very comfortable large bed. The Spindrift Hotel is central and within walking distance of the water taxi and some of the finest dining and shopping in San Pedro and just steps to the sea. The sound of the waves on the shore, the wind and the sea breeze comforting during your sleep and a restful night. If you wish to sleep in make sure you pull your blinds as the sky will get light near 4:30am and the sunrise behind the spray off the reef, the spindrift, lit up like sparkling diamonds with the suns first rays, about an hour later. Truly a beautiful place and one to return to and feel that warm welcome.

We just had the most marvelous stay at this charming hotel. It’s right in the center of town and right on the beach. We had a beachfront suite that was so big we could have lived there with a large double balcony. The king sized bed was a dream. It was such a pleasure to be able to stroll to many of the major attractions, as much as I enjoy bumping around the island in a golf cart. The staff was friendly and helpful, the bathroom was slightly dated but huge with great water pressure. With a brand new restaurant opening, this hotel is soon going to be even more of a hot spot. It’s right next to the water taxi and there’s a golf cart rental place on the premises so you can stroll over from your ferry and then rent a cart as needed. There are certainly fancier resorts, but they’re much more expensive or farther out from town. If you want to be in the center of it all and truly enjoy the essence of this community, you can’t do better than the Spindrift.

If when visiting San Pedro you are looking for a place close to the center and affordable, this is the right place. I was passing through for a few days and they recommended this hotel, which actually has affordable prices, clean rooms with AA, balcony, TV, laundry and facing the sea. The staff is friendly and helps you with whatever you need, as well as the place is very quiet and safe.

Step back in time to a quaint village bustling with puttering sputtering golf carts and you will find serenity at the Spindrift hotel. The ocean may be 30 feet away from your oversized balcony which will mesmerize you. You will forget about about your fully furnished kitchen, gigantic king sized bed, and huge private bathroom with arctic air-conditioning. The hibiscus trees and hummingbirds in the courtyard will welcome you with a glorious 24 hour breeze. I almost stole the towels, but my gracious host would not have appreciated it. I did steal the soap though. A true lovers destination. When in San Pedro...The Spindrift Hotel When in the Spindrift Hotel remember, the balcony. You won't regret it. Perfection.

I had heard soo many good things about spindrift! I definitely had to check the room out.. Arrived at about 11 a.m or so.. Went to the front desk.. Lady was super nice and friendly.. I asked to check the rooms out, without any hesitation one of the staff member did so.. And thus so far for an economy room the price was really great! Room was nice had a flat screen t.v, small refrigerator and has a beautiful, amazing beach front view at room #17! Definitely, I highly recommend this place for you to stay...

We stayed at the spindrift hotel for an initial 5 nights and really enjoyed the hotel so added on an extra nights stay. Our first impressions were the hotel was clean, right in the centre of San Pedro and all staff were very friendy and helpful. We enjoyed our time at Spindrift, although it was a little noisy, but you are in the middle of town. However our opinions of the hotel have now changed as on the last night when returning to our room we noticed that both my husband and I had money stolen. The room did not have a safe so we tried to hide some English money that we had been given as a gift as best we could. Mine was stuffed in the bottom of my travel bag, under some clothes, hidden in a hat then in an envelope. I checked and counted the money most nights as I had noticed one evening that my bag had been opened. It was only on the last night that £15 out of the £110 I had was missing. My husband also had £20 taken out of £220, but he had not checked his wallet before getting to the hotel (like me) so it is not a given that money was taken at Spindrift
.I reported the money missing the next day to reception who advised me they would tell the manager the next day and I would be contacted. It is now 2 days later and I have had no contact from the manager after sending 2 emails and the receptionist promising I would be contacted. Instead of any contact before we left I was comfronted by the 3 cleaning staff as they heard the money was missing, this was very uncomftable as I had not made any assumptions or suggestions who had taken the money. I still wait to hear from the manager but will hold my breath. The amount taken was a small amount and I appreciate we did not have the money in a safe but there was not one in the room. Whoever took the money would have had to really rummage around as both amounts were hidden out of view and the doors and windows were locked at all times. Make your own mind up about this hotel as up until the money incident I had really enjoyed myself. As I said staff were great, bar was fun and its very central. Personally it's just not worth the risk though of loosing money or other items but it's up to you. If it's happened once it can happen again.
