If you are looking for beachfront with sandy beach and quietness, this is probably not for you. If you are looking to interact and experience Belizean culture, this is the place for you. Ivan knows everyone and will give advice on whatever you ask. He does not bother you if you don’t ask. The place is across the street from the ocean. There is a small park a few hundred feet up the road where you can take a dip in the ocean with the locals. Plenty of little shops and places to eat. Ask Ivan for recommendations and he will not steer you wrong. Especially the coffee shop. Be sure to shut the bedroom door if you plan to use the AC because it is not quite big enough to cool the whole apartment. We loved walking around town and this place is in a great location to do that.
