Charlotte and Ian grew weary of counting on friends and family for vacation recommendations because their suggestions seemed always to fall short of the holiday experience for which the couple longed. Then one day, they learned about Tripadvisor and decided to take a chance on following this travel authority’s suggestion after selecting Belize as their next destination.
Talk about excellent timing!
The pair, hungry for a truly enriching holiday after so many disappointments, were convinced of the merits of Chabil Mar on the Placencia peninsula as soon as they learned that this resort had just been awarded a 2022 Tripadvisor Traveler’s Choice “Best of the Best” designation in the category of Top Small Stays in Central America.
Small stays, defined by Tripadvisor as “intimate hotels that make big impressions,” were just what Charlotte and Ian wanted and they acted on the recommendation. You will feel the same way because these honors are based on guest feedback – and you know the public isn’t shy about sharing opinions!
What is Best of the Best?
It’s the highest recognition Tripadvisor confers each year after top selections are culled from reviews put forth by travelers weighing in on the top 1% of international properties evaluated based on scientific methods used to make sure every accolade is properly awarded.
“Tripadvisor reigns supreme,” noted Nancy Huang, Pegasus senior marketing director. Her research proves that while Google, Facebook, and Yelp exert some sway, Tripadvisor not only has the most significant influence over folks trolling for vacation information, but its influence is growing. For that reason alone, the public trusts this resource and counts on recommendations and reviews to keep up this tradition.
It’s easy to see why Chabil Mar keeps adding awards
From the moment they arrived on Chabil Mar grounds, both Charlotte and Ian were impressed by the welcoming staff, pristine beachfront, lush accommodations, and premier location along the coastline of this popular peninsula. Having been named a top pick in several categories by Tripadvisor for the past 12 years, their expectations were met and then some.
They marveled at the surprising choice of Belize vacation packages that gave them 12 theme options and were delighted to find resort specials that could save them more money if they timed their stay efficiently.
Proximity to the town of Placencia …
… proved to be a bonus since Charlotte and Ian both love browsing small shops, stopping in at pubs, and meeting the locals, but it was the selection of recreational opportunities associated with the package they chose that thrilled them most.
Further, fine dining tropical style was likely a big factor associated with reasons Tripadvisor bestowed upon Chabil Mar a “Best of Best” designation, given the culinary adventure guests rave about when they comment about the resort’s cuisine.
