As you arrive, helping push your luggage cart down a concrete walkway past some very derelict properties, you may wonder precisely you’ve gotten yourself into. However at the end of that walkway is a very special place. Evan, the owner, and Miss Barbara, and all of their staff have created a magical place. As they opened the door I realized this is no mere hotel room, this is an elegantly appointed apar**ent with two bathrooms, a kitchen and open floor-plan living room and a full-width balcony overlooking the Caribbean Sea. My wife and I didn’t have housing this nice until well after grad school. Hardwood floors, multi-angle showers, a jacuzzi tub. Not only was the room simply lovely, they had fresh flowers everywhere. Placencia is really one traffic road and one pedestrian walkway that runs parallel a block over towards the beach. Belizean nirvana is off the pedestrian walkway and directly on the beach. You can snorkel or kayak directly from the front of the property if you want to. Everything you might want to do during your stay you can walk to in under ten minutes (well, the nearest A** is maybe 25 minutes). We walked to every meal and walked to meet the boats for our diving/snorkeling excursions. Belizean nirvana even provides umbrellas in the room just in case (they work!). Everyone in town knows Evan and Barbara and greets you with a big smile when they hear where you’re staying. Each morning the staff serves a light breakfast on the rooftop patio. Boiled eggs, cheese, toast, fruit, yogurt, cereal… one day they had chicken burritos. It was a great opportunity to chat with Evan and the other guests (many of whom are proudly repeat visitors). From the minute we got picked up at the air***** to the minute we had to say goodbye, we felt welcomed, appreciated, and at home. There’s just something about the Caribbean gently whispering on the sand as you doze on the big king bed at Belizean nirvana.
