Rainbow Hotel offers an excellent panoramic view of the sea from all of their 8 Deluxe Suites and 1 Junior Suite.
Like many Caye Caulker families, the Marins depended on fishing for their livelihood. When the industry started to decline, they saw the potential in tourism and invested in a hotel.
Ernesto, who was a child at the time, literally grew up in the industry as his parents ran the hotel. Now, nearly two decades after the hotel got its name from a child’s toy with a rainbow on it, Ernesto runs the family business. They are proud of their location and provide excellent, professional guest services.
Located 21 miles northeast of Belize City and only 15 minutes from neighboring San Pedro, Caye Caulker is known for its cool, laid-back island life. With a population of approximately 1,200 people, the island appeals to visitors looking for a comfortable place to sleep, a white sandy beach, clear aquamarine waters, delicious seafood and friendly people.
