What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Rain offers a beautiful rooftop dining experience with stunning views, particularly at sunset, complemented by attentive service and creative cocktails. While the ambiance and drinks are consistently praised, some diners found the food quality to be inconsistent or portions small for the price. However, many still recommend it for its upscale atmosphere and overall enjoyable dining experience.
"Wry pleasent roof top restaurant and bar. Good wine which is rare in Belize. Nice soft jazz music. View of both Atlantic and Lagoon. Really good food. We like the tacos and the rain salad chicken lettuce wraps were outstanding"
John Dimonte
"Fantastic food, excellent service with a beautiful ambience and view from the upper open terrace! The food presentation is terrific as well. We tried dinner and breakfast, and it seems you can't go wrong."
Tim Szczesny
"View and atmosphere is lovely. Wait staff very nice but I think there is a language issue which hasn’t happened before, resulting in a few small mishaps in getting our food and drink. Still - recommended it for its upscale atmosphere."

Our Ambergris Caye Restaurant Guide
Rain Restaurant & Roof Top Terrace – our first dinner stop was Rain, near the Grand Caribe Hotel, north of town. You’ll need a golf cart to get here, or you can contact them about a complimentary water taxi ride if you don’t have a golf cart during your trip. The big draw here are the sunsets you’ll catch (unfortunately the night we ate here there was not much sun) but the food was great as well!.

Rain will never actually live up to its name, on the contrary, this restaurant and rooftop terrace has an excellent vantage point for the perfect sunset experience. Go upstairs and order a ruby sea breeze or a ginger pear martini to sip on as you are choosing your meal. Highly recommended is a bowl of seafood ceviche, finishing up with a piña colada cheesecake.

Restaurants in Ambergris Caye
Ambergris Caye’s only rooftop restaurant is two miles north of town atop the Grand Caribe Belize, one of the largest hotels on the island. What this place lacks in décor (some may call it modern, I call it bare-looking), it makes up for in panoramic views of the sky and the sea.
