This walk is taking longer to blog about than it was to walk but I took SO many pictures since I have been such an infrequent visitor to these foreign climes. Part One, I barely budged traveling from Costa Maya Resort (Mile 6.5) to Portofino (Mile 6 North). Part Two took me from Portofino to Rojo to LosKeep reading »
In Part One, I told you about a failed attempt at a sea turtle rescue and only about 15 minutes of my 3 hour walk down the coast. I made it down to Portofino Resort (about 6 miles up the coast). Time to keep trekking. And it was really a gorgeous day for a walk.Keep reading »
I got invited to head almost 10 miles north to the new private, luxurious resort of El Secreto. I jumped at the chance to experience something new. Wow. That is all I can say about the evening. The pictures do not do the resort justice. It was absolutely amazing.I truly felt like a movie star.Keep reading »
One of the questions I get asked most frequently is about budget travelling to Ambergris Caye. Some are back packing from Mexico and trying to keep the budget as tight as possible, some just want to spend money on eating, drinking and diving rather than on their lodging. Both make sense. So…over the next few months, IKeep reading »
On Monday I took a rare water taxi ride north (yes NORTH!) to visit Indigo Condominium/Beach Homes. They are 4.5 miles north of the bridge and still being finished. They are projected to open in November. Here was my view when I first got on the dock. And the view from the top floor backKeep reading »
Yesterday I went up to Grand Caribe Resort to help out with a wedding. Just a few miles north of town and the bridge, Grand Caribe is actually quite easy and quick to travel to…by golf cart or by boat. Heck…these days you can actually take a taxi there. The road isn’t bad at all…AfterKeep reading »
I just (reluctantly) returned from a few amazing nights at Tranquility Bay Resort on northern Ambergris Caye. Located within the Bacalar Chico National Park, Tranquility is a small resort 13 miles north of San Pedro town. With only 10 cabanas on a perfectly private white sand beach, you almost feel like you are in anotherKeep reading »
I stopped by Exotic Caye Resort yesterday to observe a yoga class at the new studio. I was actually supposed to participate but I am a long time yoga naysayer. (All stemming from a one week stint at a “Bikini Bootcamp” that I attended in Tulum, Mexico in 2006…if you need to see aKeep reading »
I’ll admit. I was skeptical (I usually am). A New York style deli? An Irish pub? In Belize? I visited The Hotel yesterday for a St. Patrick’s Day bash and honestly? I could not have been more impressed. So much more than I thought it would be. I am going to try to temper theKeep reading »
I will admit it. I have a very soft place in my heart for this bed and breakfast. When I first visited in 2006 with a friend, we stayed with Cindy and Renita of Changes in Latitudes for a week. And when I left, I wanted to return immediately. In fact, as soon as IKeep reading »
Let’s flash back a bit to better weather. This is #2 in my hotel review series. (To view #1, check out: Sunbreeze Hotel) At the north end of town, Blue Tang is a small inn (I believe 14 rooms) that I have walked past 1000 times. It is very cutely painted and covered inKeep reading »
I’ve been getting lots of emails asking me one question: Why don’t you show us places to stay? Well…ummmm…because I stay in my condo. That’s why. But, you are right, SanPedroScoop should be more accommodating to her hoards of fans. It can’t just be me, me, me all of the time. So here is myKeep reading »
