Hello!
We are looking for best place to stay when we come in Dec. 08. We have only been to Belize on a cruise ship stopover. We went inland to see the zoo and ruins. We really want to stay on Ambergris Caye and do some serious snorkeling! We have been to Riviera Maya a few times and usually rent a condo due to the fact that we have 6 people (3+ bedrooms) and like to have a bit of elbow room and our own kitchen. Here's a bit more info:
We are family with 3 kids (plus a spare always seems to show up)! Kids are teens plus a 7 year old - no little ones.
We like to cook our own meals for most breakfasts and lunches, must have fridge, micro, oven , etc. Prefer beachfront rooms with A/C, like to walk everywhere (close to restaurants, bars, grocery stores is preferred). LOVE snorkeling. Like freshwater pool, but not required. Have looked at Sunset Villas, Pelican Reef, Paradise Villas.....
Are there others? Any recommendations? Also, is it fairly easy to find stores with basic provisions (like bread, fruit, cereal, cheese, coffee, etc.)? Thanks for your two cents!
