J Dog. Thanks for the advice. In regards to the beer, will the hotel have an issue with us having beer delivered directly to us? Is it substantially cheaper to buy from the distributor vs. the hotel bar (I assume so, but don't know).

On the beer issue, it is much cheaper from the Dist. you will pay the same price as the bar pays or the grocery store. I think it is around $18-20 a case u.s. with bottle return, I always catch hell for letting that one out, but I'm here to help you.

Blue Water will be less expensive then VH or can be at least. There are pleanty of less expensive places with good food, the problem is seating 26 and getting your meals in a reasonable time frame. Reasonable is probably less then 1 1/2 hours. I called Elvi's kitchen and ask it they could seat a party of 26 and they said they could. Elvi's is more Belizian (and been around forever) and since you are coming to Belize, might be a good choice. Prices are reasonable, in the 8 to 20us range. It is in town. You will need to make reservations anywhere you go for a group that size, but not till close to the date. Caramba would be streched to get 26 in there. If you need phone numbers let me know.

Rojo lounge was doing pibil on Sunday afternoon, don't know it they still are. They are also expensive and you also have the expense of getting everyone up there by boat.

It's not super fancy, but you might want to consider going to JamBel's on Wednesday night. They have a good buffet and live music. It's more of a San Pedro experience, to my mind.
Even if you didn't go on a Wednesday, perhaps Fitz would be willing to put one on for your group on another night.
