Belize City Resort

Very nice place to stay to experience the local jungle related attractions near City. Very convenientl location to stay the last two or three nights before leaving because if it’s very close proximity to the airport and airport shuttle. The food was excellent. Had a very nice pool and the atmosphere was very relaxing.
