About Us

What does ‘Beya’ mean?

As you may already know, BEYA is a Garifuna Word meaning “beach” or “beach front.”  We take pride in our Garifuna heritage and found it appropriate to use the Garifuna language and art form in our décor. BEYA SUITES is the only local owned luxury hotel in the Toledo District. We opened our doors to our guests in November 2005.  Since then, we have strived to provide excellent services and quality amenities.  In January 2007, in acknowledgement of our efforts, The Belize Tourism Board (BTB) awarded Beya Suites “The Small Hotel of the Year” award.  This award is given each year to one establishment in the country that provides quality guests services.  In 2020, during the COVID pandemic, we were the first to be awarded Gold Standard status in Punta Gorda Town, and in 2023 we received the ‘Boutique Hotel of the Year, Southern Belize’ award from Lux Life Magazine Resorts and Retreats Awards. We are proud to have received these awards and recognitions.  We will continue to work hard to upkeep the significance they portray and to meet the expectations of our valued guests.
