What do you and the love of your life require for a romantic encounter? Flowers and wine? Candlelight? How about grandma offering to babysit so the kids disappear for the night? If grandma’s available for more than one night, you may want to give her the opportunity to double down on her ability to spoil the kids rotten while the two of you head off to a romantic vacation.

Mindful of the family budget, this might at first seem no more than a fanciful dream – but if you target Belize as your destination, not only can you make a pilgrimage to the romance capital of Central America but you can save money by seeking a resort that specializes in romance on a budget. One of the best is Chabil Mar and we’re delighted to give you four romantic reasons to choose this property over all others.

1. Accommodations are breathtaking. Having private time in lavishly decorated digs contributes mightily to a romantic encounter and even the smallest suite is so fancifully decorated and appointed, leaving the nest can be difficult to do. From oceanfront views to the Luxury Seafront Villa Suite reserved for honeymooners, you don’t have to show a recent marriage license to reserve this hideaway.

2. Amenities and services are designed with intimacy in mind. Discreet staffers are trained in the art of respecting the privacy of guests and because this boutique resort is small, you don’t have to worry about noisy neighbors ruining your private time as you repair to either of the resort’s two infinity swimming pools for a dip, slip away for a private dinner on the pier or on your personal veranda.

3. Activity options are entirely up to you. At Chabil Mar, couples can indulge in myriad water sports, take tours to Mayan ruin or stroll nearby Placencia Village. For those who don’t want to make decisions, choosing a package is the ideal way to avoid making them! These bundles include accommodations, meals, onsite amenities like kayaks, paddle boards and bicycles and lots of extras. See which of these packages beckons – and while you’re on this resort website page, browse these Belize vacation specials, too.

4. Sea what’s in store for you. Couples rave about this tropical paradise with its ocean views, relaxing vibe and beauty. Some compare it to Eden, so if you and your soulmate are seeking a place to play Adam and Eve that’s just as discreet and gorgeous, Chabil Mar has no equal. If you don’t find Chabil Mar to be the most romantic getaway you’ve ever seen after you review the below lush video footage, you may not need a romantic escape after all!

The Caribbean country of Belize is gaining a lot of attention to vacationers in the know — because while it offers lush vegetation and beautiful beaches all year long, it’s also surprisingly easy to get to. Travelers have plenty of options for direct flights into the country, and there are a number of options for getting where you need to go. Here’s everything you need to know before booking your flight.

When to Fly

No matter where you’re coming from, the availability of flights is going to depend on the time of year. Tourist season runs from November into April, and many airlines only offer flights during this period. You’ll find more direct flights from more cities during these months. On the contrary side, flying during the off season will typically allow you to get better deals on tickets, although you may have to work a little harder to find a flight that’s convenient to you.

Direct Flights From North America

All three North American countries offer direct flights into Belize, and chances are good that you can at least catch a connecting flight from any decently sized airport in North America. Here’s what you need to know about traveling in the United States, Mexico, and Canada.

• Alaska, United, American, and Delta airlines all provide direct flights in the United States throughout the entire year. Those who decide to travel during the peak season can also take advantage of flights from Southwest, Frontier, and Sun Country Airlines.
• The only non-stop flights available out of Canada are offered by WestJet. Unfortunately, they only fly during the high season — so you’ll likely have to make a transfer in the U.S., Mexico, or Latin America from May to October.
• Tropic Airline — an airline created explicitly for travel to and from Belize — provides direct flights from Cancun. They depart twice a day and are a sensible option if you need to schedule a connecting flight.

Flights From Europe

You won’t find any direct flights coming into Belize from Europe or the United Kingdom, but American Airlines offers a regular flight that leaves from Heathrow and stops at Miami. It’s the most convenient option that doesn’t require an overnight connection. Cancun is also a popular connection point.

Of course, once you land in Belize City, you’ll need to find somewhere to stay. Placencia Peninsula is regularly called “The Island You Can Walk To”, and it offers some of the most pristine beaches in the country. And if you want to make the most of your stay, book your trip at Chabil Mar. We’ll roll out the red carpet for you and your whole party.

According to researchers investigating honeymoon behaviors for the website Hunyfund.com, newlywed couples share an interest in doing 10 things when they plan their post-wedding getaways. Their goals are:

1. Decompressing from the stress of surviving the ceremony/reception.
2. Relaxing – this can take a couple of days for couples whose nuptials were especially stressful.
3. Figuring out what they’d like to do to improve their relationship.
4. Indulging in adventures unique to their honeymoon spot.
5. Splurging on the occasional extravagance while still keeping an eye on their budget.
6. Agreeing to deal with conflicts as they arise; no “waiting until we get home.”
7. Giving each other space for solo experiences (she gets spa treatments; he goes diving).
8. Becoming immersed in the culture of the place they choose for their honeymoon.
9. Expecting the occasional snafu while staying so flexible, you laugh about it.
10. Talking about the future. After all, you’ve got plenty of time to dream during your escape!

Can you do all of those things on your honeymoon?

The answer is a resounding yes if you visit a Caribbean vacation spot that takes just a few hours to reach from southern U.S. hubs by coming to Belize. While tropical Belize meets the very definition of an exotic overseas nation, everyone speaks English so you’ll feel right at home during your honeymoon holiday.

Where to find bliss? Chabil Mar, located on the trendy Placencia peninsula along Belize’s coastline. Chabil Mar is honeymoon heaven for couples, thus you two will be able to check off every one of the goals mentioned above at this luxurious property where lovebirds find privacy, intimacy, and plenty of fun.
