Hi Belize lovers
I'm getting married on April 26, and my "husband" (that sounds so weird!) and I will traveling to Belize for the first time. We're staying at the Maruba Spa Resort on the mainland first, then going to Victoria House for the second half of the trip.
Tons of questions:
Does anyone recommend we bring traveler's checks? Or is U.S. currency okay? I assume there are no ATMs?
Are most credit cards accepted throughout the country? How about AmEx?
Has anyone ever stayed at Maruba? For those who have or who are familiar with the place, are we going to be trapped there for the five-six days we're there, or are there nearby towns/attractions that we can walk to or take a cab to? We actually booked all our activities right through them for most of the time we're there, and left maybe one or two "free" days for non-Maruba stuff.
Also, what night time activity is recommended for "younger" people? I know there are clubs in AC -- does anyone have any specific recommendations for us?
Thanks for any help...
