Belize Vacation Packages Jan 07

 

Andy James of James TravelPOINTS recently vacationed in Belize with his family. Some of the eco-adventure included Jungle Lodge stays, Luxury Island Accommodations, Mayan Cave Exploration, Bone Fishing and swimming with the Rays & Sharks.  Read the review below… 

 

Belize is a place–and an experience– marked by excitement and adventure. In one week my family (my wife, a teen-aged son and a teen-aged daughter) explored thousands of years of history, walked through caves and jungles of the enchanted ruins, and saw one of the world’s largest outdoor zoos. The mainland and coastal cays are remarkable wonders. We traveled on rivers, through jungles, over mountains and coral reefs, into expansive underground caves, and under glorious waterfalls. Through it all, there was an incredible collection of wildlife.   After hiking through the jungle and visiting Mayan ruins and the bat cave, we retired to the beautiful jungle lodge, that is located in the Cayo area. After dinner, we discussed the day’s activities with our hosts and another guest. Another evening was spent in Blancaneaux at the Blancaneaux Lodge. While there we hiked down the Mopan River to Rock Falls, a 100-foot waterfall where large pools of smooth, clean water beckons swimmers to relax and cool off.

 

Our next destination was Ambergris Cay. (A “cay” is a small low island or reef of sand, rocks, etc.) The cay had white, sandy beaches and coconut palms. It was the perfect place to relax in a beautiful tropical atmosphere. There was also a touch of “civilization,” with seaside restaurants, waterfront bars, miles of beaches, superb resort hotels, and the reef.

 

Ambergris Cay is just a short hop from Belize City. We stayed at Ramo’s Village and Cayo Espanto. Ramo’s Village is a quaint resort hotel with grass huts, a good restaurant, and a great location. Days were spent snorkeling and bone fishing. Evenings were spent taking a short walk into the town of San Pedro for dinner and limited shopping.

 

Fishing in Belize is world class! A guide took us bonefishing and we had a very successful day.

A visit to the new resort island of Cayo Espanto unveiled a romantic paradise. Individual huts have their own splash pools, private docks, and all of the amenities that are needed for a relaxing stay. Island guests can relax, take a paddle boat ride around the island, bonefish off of their private docks, and eat wonderful meals.

Belize is a destination that provides a lot to see and do.
