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.

The use of teak from the farm in all aspects of the buildings is great. The rooms are large, with spacious bathrooms and comfortable beds. Good showers, both indoor and out. Great pool. The spice tour is excellent value- we learned lots. Birding is very good

Providing free WiFi, Louis' Apartments is set in Placencia Village. Each accommodation at the 5-star hotel has city views, and guests can enjoy access to a terrace.
Guest review
My stay at Louis Apartment was an exceptional experience. The apartment was spotlessly clean, making it feel fresh and welcoming from the moment I arrived. The space was both spacious and luxurious, designed with thoughtful attention to detail that elevated every aspect of my stay. From the modern electric stove with proper ventilation to the TVs in both the living room and bedroom, which allowed streaming and casting on various platforms, the amenities were top-notch. The bathroom was another standout feature, with its beautifully modern, nature-inspired aesthetic and perfect lighting that added to its earthy vibe. The furniture was incredibly soft and comfortable, creating an inviting space to relax after long days. The location was also a major plus, situated in the heart of the village with easy access to dining options, supermarkets, entertainment spots, and gift shops. Security was exceptional, with multiple measures in place, including secure locks and cameras, ensuring I felt completely safe throughout my stay. Additionally, the host was extremely communicative and receptive, addressing any questions or concerns promptly and making me feel well cared for.
Offering an outdoor pool and a seafront restaurant, Mariposa Belize Beach Resort is located right on the beach in Placencia.

Excellent wooden cabins on stilts.
Kitchen facilities, microwave, hob etc, in separate building.
Great Wi-Fi.
Friendly and helpful French owner Natalie as were the cleaning staff.
The cabins are located around 15 minutes walk from Sarteneja fishing village.
If you are arriving by local bus the bus driver will drop you off around 200 metres from the cabins on the main road, you can also catch the return bus at the same location.
Highly recommended.
