We stayed in the Green House for one week, the garden/landscape is beautiful. Dr. Rivas was a great host with excellent communication and customer service. This location sits on a back/ footage road however, transportation was not a problem you can catch a taxi to downtown for $2.50 per person. There are stores within walking distance, as well.. if you want to travel back to Belize city for activities..as we did you can take the city bus that’s, located downtown outside the welcome center for $9.00 one way.. once In Belize we took the water taxi for ($35 round trip to San Pedro Belize and visited beIize zoo on the way back .. Dr. Rivas also provides a list of things to do and will help you with transportation.. we did use a taxi driver that was recommend... by the Rivas which only cost $3.50 each stop.. we also went across the border to Guatemala .. to enter I believe we paid $30 or $40 Belize dollars ..If you decide to visit Guatemala pls do not exchange your Belize dollars because you can use Belize currency over there...I also recommend after you use one taxi driver and you feel Comfortable exchange numbers or email that way you’ll have the same driver... for the remaining of your vacation prices can be reasonable for longer distance rides... I’m not a huge fan of chocolate but my friend, loved the chocolate factory which is walking distances and minutes from downtown...last but not least we had the opportunity to be apart of the UDP campaign/parade and visited with the Mayor of Belize... it was a great experience.. Enjoy your stay with the Rivas
