Don't be fooled by outward appearances. Corozal has been hit hard by the pandemic, and is just now starting to recover, so everything looks a little dilapidated and run down. But don't let that discourage you. Ivan is a great guy, very friendly and hard-working, with a can-do attitude. He knows the area like the back of his hand, and is happy to help with any questions or needs you have, so he is like a concierge as well as a host. He arranged a prompt and professional ride to the airport for us, and put us in touch with friendly and competent local realtors, as well as giving us good advice on restaurants and the usual stuff. The apartment itself gets the big things right, but there are some minor issues with the small stuff. We stayed in the smaller apartment, on the right as you walk in. The bed is comfortable, and the mini-split unit and fans cool the place off quickly and keep it very comfortable. The bathroom has a beautiful hand-painted mural on the wall, and a sunken shower/bathtub with a large shower head and a gentle flow of water. No matter how hard you turn the knobs off, the shower drips afterward. That was not a problem for us. We slept like babies, but I want you to know about it, in case you are ultra-sensitive to that sound. The place is lavishly furnished with towels and wash cloths. The couch is comfortable, and large enough for 3 or 4 people, and the TV plays Netflix seamlessly. The place is located right on the picturesque and colorful bay, within easy walking distance of groceries, restaurants, and even churches. Corozal is a town of about 10,000 people, and the people are remarkably friendly, honest, and easy-going. It is easy to strike up a conversation with most anybody you meet, and we felt completely safe at all hours of the day and night. The electrical outlets in the bedroom will operate a CPAP and lamp with no problem, and two of them will charge your smart phone or laptop. If you have more than two devices, you will need to charge the others in the living room. The kitchen is a little problematic. It is well supplied with pots, pans, silverware, plates, etc., for two or three people, but the microwave buttons are all in Spanish (so brush up before you come!) The only things we didn't like about the place were a general lack of cabinet and drawer space, and the toaster, which I'm sure will be replaced before you get there! We just lived out of our suitcases. Once we got used to this, we were perfectly comfortable for our one-week stay, and every day we stayed there, we liked Corozal more and more. By the time our week was up, we were talking about it as a possible retirement destination. Don't be spoiled, and don't let appearances fool you. This is a good place.
