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.

Set in Maya Beach, a few steps from Maya Beach, Kalimera Beach Hotel offers accommodation with an outdoor swimming pool, free private parking, a private beach area and a terrace.
Guest review
Absolutely the best boutique hotel we stayed at in Belize!
Everything at Kalimera Beach is so thoughtfully designed — from the moment we arrived, we felt more like family than guests. The staff are incredibly friendly and welcoming, and their attention to detail makes the stay unforgettable.
You get ice for your drinks or to make a refreshing iced coffee (which became our daily ritual). There’s a water tap in front of each room to rinse the sand off your feet before going inside — a small but brilliant touch. The rooms and common areas were spotless, and you can tell a lot of love and care goes into everything here.
There are hammocks, a beach gym, paddleboards, kayaks, and games — it’s literally impossible to get bored. The absolute highlight? Sipping an iced coffee while relaxing in a hammock right by the beach, watching the waves roll in. Sometimes you even get a fresh coconut!
They also organized an incredible tour for us to Laughing Bird Caye — it was breathtaking, and we even saw a shark!
We truly loved every second of our stay. Kalimera Beach is a place you arrive as a guest and leave feeling like part of the family. Can’t recommend it enough!

Guest review
My stay at Key Casa was simply extraordinary. The villa is absolutely beautiful, and everything about it exceeded my expectations. The location is perfectvery close to the restaurants where I ate daily, especially Cool Beans, which became my favorite spot for breakfast.
The hosts were incredibly welcoming and helpful. They provided me with all the information I needed and even assisted me with renting a golf cart and arranging taxis. Truly, they are beyond amazing hosts!
The room was spotless and had every comfort I could possibly need. Everything was perfectly arranged, and the attention to detail really stood out.
I loved it so much that I honestly didn’t want to leave. Without a doubt, I will return and stay here again. Everything was simply divine!

Aruna Resort & Villas has an outdoor swimming pool, garden, a terrace and restaurant in San Pedro. With free WiFi, this 4-star hotel offers free shuttle service and room service.
Guest review
We reserved the room that had the view of the lagoon and it was amazing! The right angle balcony provided enough space for all of us to have privacy and have an amazing view of the lagoon. I loved the endless windows, it made the rooms so bright, and you felt like you could relax instantly.
I must say that the holiday started off so well, we were picked up from the airport and taken to the dock. The journey was smooth and we didn’t have to do too much thinking which is exactly what you need when you have been travelling for 24hrs. The welcome cocktails were amazing. Generally the team were great, attentive, and easy to talk to. The breakfast is amazing and worth trying at least once.
You don’t get tired of the views at all, and secret beach is just 14 mins away. What a treat!
We will truly miss truly miss the cat. Our stay at Aruna played a part in enjoying Belize.

The Caye Hotel San Pedro is located on the beachfront in San Pedro, a few steps from San Pedro Beach. The accommodation provides a shared lounge and a 24-hour front desk for guests.
Guest review
Location was ideal! 3 minute walk from the airport, right on the beach and in town. Can walk almost anywhere you want to go from here. Lots of restaurants, bars, shops, and everything you're looking for right at your fingertips. After the traffic and usual noise dies down at night you can be lulled to sleep by the ocean waves.
The hotel is all brand new and clean. Staff is amazing and helpful and always at the desk 24 hours. Highly recommend this place. Will stay here again! Very safe and secure as well. As a female solo traveller, I felt very safe here.
