The Environment
The Phoenix is committed to conserving the natural resources on Ambergris Caye and in Belize. We change linens every two days to help conserve water and electricity and to minimize the use of detergent. Guests who prefer daily linen changes can place the cards located on their bedside tables on their beds. Guests who prefer less frequent changes can inform the Front Desk. Towels hung on rods or hooks will be left for reuse. Towels placed on the floor or in the tub will be replaced with fresh towels. Guests can also contribute to the conservation effort by turning off lights, fans, TVs, and the air conditioning when not in use.
Pool Bar
The pool bar is open from 10am to 5pm daily, serving food and drinks. The pool bar is for use by Phoenix guests only.
Both of our pools are sanitized using salt water chlorinators, so they will be gentler on your skin, eyes, and hair than traditional chlorine pools. There is an outdoor shower located between Buildings C and D for rinsing off prior to entering the pool. The depths of our pools range from 2 to 4 feet. Diving into the pool and running around the pools is strictly prohibited. Glass is not permitted in or around the pools. Towels or personal items left unattended at the pool for more than 30 minutes will be brought to the pool bar. Pools are for use by Phoenix guests only.
        
        
      
    
    Red Ginger
Red Ginger is open everyday for breakfast, lunch and dinner from 7am to 9:30pm. You can enjoy food and drink in our air-conditioned dining room, on our outdoor patio, via room service on your veranda or in your suite, or by the pool during the day.
You can order by sending a Whatsapp to the restaurant (+501-613-8409) or the Front Desk (+501-610-3371).

Ambergris Caye offers some of the best scuba diving in the world. We arrange diving through highly regarded local dive companies. Local dives take place outside the reef. The dive master chooses which dive sites each morning or afternoon depending on the weather conditions and what sites divers have visited during the previous few days.
We can also assist in setting up trips to the Blue Hole. This tour departs at 5:30am and returns at 5:30pm and involves 3 dives and approximately 2.5 hours of boat travel each way. We recommend this trip for experienced divers and those not prone to sea sickness. This trip needs a min- imum of 10 divers, so having flexibility with scheduling makes it more likely to go on this trip. The cost is approximately $292.50 USD including tax + $40 USD park fee. Gear rental, if needed, is $28.13 USD.

Half day reef fishing - $375 USD for up to 3 guests, $25 USD for each additional guest + tax.

The most popular type of fishing we offer is reef fishing. You will catch mostly snapper, grouper, and jacks while relaxing in a power boat on the Caribbean inside Belize’s Barrier Reef. Guides can filet what you catch and Red Ginger can prepare your fish for lunch and dinner. Please see the restaurant or the Front Desk for more details on this. Full day fishing can be combined with snorkeling and/or a beach barbecue at a cost of $560 USD + tax for up to 4 guests.
Flats Fishing
Full day, private, fly or spin - $560 USD + tax for up to 2 guests
We also work with terrific local guides for flats fishing, and you can catch bonefish, tarpon, and permit. All catch and release, of course. Due to the size and draft of the skiffs used by the guides, only 2 guests are allowed per boat. For full day flats fishing, lunch is not included, but Red Ginger can prepare a box lunch to take with you. For all flats fishing, we need to know your preference for spin or fly casting in advance so that your guide is properly equipped.
