Thats the type of person I have dumped off my "who to vacation with" list! Great, go somewhere else, pleeeezze!

Belizelaw, you have some excellent points.

Isn't there a saying that Belize is the most expensive place in Central America but the cheapest place in the Caribbean? That in itself should tell you that you can't compare many areas with the country. I think too many people just assume that there will be Mexican prices, service, and overall experience rather than Belizian prices, services etc.

Your right Canam

In my many years experience servicing guests many said that they expected it to be a lot cheaper because its in central America, and just the thought of central america rings inexpensive.

I always said if you thought you were going to the caribbean what would you think then

All said they thought it was cheap compared to other caribbean islands they had visited,

Apparently, "Road Kill" means something a little more high brow in Winston's hood...Were you expecting finger bowls and warm towels?

I think the Roadkill bar needs to name a drink after this guy. Then, in 10 days from this very night, I will drink it.

It's funny. I get to BZ (actually AC) quite often, in a comparative sense, and it's almost always a pleasant, comfortable but yet changing place. Many (most) of the old places we remember, a host of new ones and spots we discover on each trip keep us going back.

If I were to shop for cheap beer, a Sam's club and wild nightlife, I'd probably go elsewhere; but I don't.

I will, however, ceaselessly complain about the thickness and weight of a Belikin bottle. I always (after what must be thousands of them) think I have one last drink left based on heft. One day, I'll learn. Until then, I'll just keep practicing.

BTW, why is it the most fun I seem to have there with non-Belizians is with Oklahomans? I just don't get it...

I keep going back because I know people like Winston don't like it there.

Pedro's Hotel is only US$ 50 per night! You are contradicting yourself, Winston!

If AC is so overpriced, how did I manage to spend a week here last fall & spend only $400 on expenses (hotel, food, water-taxi(RT), taxi to/fr airport in BC AND a trip to Blue Hole)??? Did I mention I had the best trip ever???

Met alot of new friends, spent time walking the beach, walking around SP & hanging out with my new friends.

I can't wait to return in September and this time I am staying for 10 days as well as returning for many years to come.

I'm sorry Phish, seems impossible.
