Hi! My husband and I are planning our first trip to Belize over the Christmas Holidays. I have many questions, and hope I receive many opinions! First, how is the weather during December? Is it warm enough for all the beach activities? Do all the tours still run during this time? Are the restaurants and bars still open? We are ages 60 and 48, and prefer quiet evenings, low key hotel preferably with a small kitchen, good beach area and pool, yet close to town. I see that all the hotels more than double their price during this season. What about rental cars for exploring the ruins and cave areas on our own? Good or not? Thank you for all your input!
