Seems you are jumping all over the place, the best advice anyone has given you in all the previous post ,, is you have to spend some time in the areas you are questioning...its only foolish to decide otherwise. This is a small country you could take a year and get a good feel of all the areas you have been asking about.

Yes..6 to 8 yrs ago Caye Caulker was so busy you could not walk down the street. The Ocean Side Bar so busy you had to hold your drink up high and squeeze by,,,there was no economical stress going on that killed that going back 4 yrs or so,,,,do you all locals remember how crazy hot, Placencia..Cyaye Caulker was,,it ended way before the economy did..m y thinking its the cost of airfare,,,RT from most US areas to Cancun,,$300.. RT to Belize right now $800..Belize taxation of flights is killing us.

In talking with hotel owners all over Belize, I get the impression that budget and mid-level hotels are doing better than high-end places. There are exceptions, of course, at all levels, but it seems that a segment of travelers is trading down. Value is more important than ever, at all price points.
The large majority of economists say the U.S. recession is now over, and I believe it, but that it will take some time, perhaps a year or longer, for the improvement to be felt in the job market and at the consumer level.
