Sandwiched between the Central American jungles and the Caribbean coast, Belize is a country packed with history, culture and adventure. Most visitors head straight for Belize City, the nation’s capital and gateway to the many low-lying islands that form the Belize Barrier Reef. This reef is the second largest in the world, with over 100 types of coral and five times as many species of fish for snorkellers and scuba divers to feast their eyes upon. Join a snorkelling tour for the afternoon, or brave the biggest – and deepest – attraction of all and go diving in the Blue Hole, a giant underwater sinkhole home to an abundance of marine life. You may want to experience the famous nightlife of Caye Caulker before you leave, but don’t miss your chance to explore the lush forests found inland. An afternoon’s trekking could lead to face-to-face encounters with spider monkeys, wild cats, green iguanas and the bright keel-billed toucan, Belize’s national bird. Venture deeper into the national parks to find some of the oldest Mayan ruins in the Americas. Head into the central, forest-thick Cayo District where you’ll find crumbling temples like Xunantunich, along with eerie burial sites like Actun Tunuchil Muknal. Accommodation options range from luxury hotels on the most developed islands like San Pedro, to budget-friendly hostels and guesthouses found across the country.

Guest review
We had a wonderful time staying in Tropical Magnolia with our friends. We booked two cabanas last weekend. The place is beautiful and has a calming energy flowing all over with mature fruit trees and ornamental plants everywhere you look. The peacocks and the lotus ponds give this place a unique and pleasant vibe that you don’t otherwise experience. The cabanas are sustainably built by the local Maya artisans and have all the amenities needed for a comfortable stay. The owners are exceptionally welcoming and take personal attention to make their guests feel at home. We will definitely be visiting this place again!

It is a great little hotel at the central spot in Placencia. Easy access to the Cayes, with many scuba and snorkeling trips available in the town. The barrier reef is beyond belief if you do scuba.

Guest review
Best hotel in Belize! Wonderful brand new property, luxurious in every single detail and perfectly located on a pristine beach. We stayed at one of their ocean front villas and it was heavenly! Huge bedroom and huge bathroom, beautiful balcony with view of the ocean, private pool on the beach right in front of the sea. Kayak, paddle boards and bikes at our disposal. Lush! Decor is impeccable and mattress and pillow super comfortable. Staff and service are what you’d expect from a 5 stars hotel and more! They also rent golf buggies and can help you book any kind of tour. Restaurant is also upscale with a fantastic view of the ocean and food is delicious. We are so happy to have found this gem. We would only come here when back in Belize 🩷
