Remember back in the day when airlines staged price wars and it became a game to predict which carrier would capitulate first when the race was on to compete for passengers? Well, we’ve got breaking news for you if the only reason you haven’t made arrangements to visit Belize this summer has to do with airfares: A traveler, who wishes to remain anonymous so people who have spent more on their round trip tickets to Belize this summer don’t hate him, confides that he just paid $350 USD for a nonstop round trip!

You want a deal too, and we want to make sure you get one, so here’s the skinny on getting your fine self to Belize during green season, between June and October, and having enough money left in your bank account to splurge on everything else once you arrive. Figure out which of the following work best for you:

On May 26th 2015, American Airlines added additional flights to its current schedule linking Belize City with Los Angeles every Saturday and Sunday. Look for the red and blue logo on 737-800 plane fuselages as service is stepped up to meet increasing demand brought about by Belize’s growing reputation for summer fun on a shoestring.

Flights leave LA at 12:30 a.m. and arrive at 6:10 a.m., so you can snooze all the way here and grab a delish Belize breakfast once you land. Live further north? Heed the advice of Airfarewatchdog.com: Reserve your $269 USD, round trop Seattle to Belize City tickets immediately (http://www.airfarewatchdog.com/cheap-flights/seattle-washington-sea-to-belize-city-belize-bze/)!

But, suppose you don’t want to visit Belize until later in the summer because you’re still wrestling your work load to the mat. Be advised that you risk losing the deal of a lifetime if you live in Dallas. Delta Airlines is offering round trip tickets to Belize City priced at $279 USD and that price is valid from June to December, throughout Belize’s green season.

But you know how fickle carriers can be! Delta earmarked limited numbers of promotional seats, so if you want to make sure your posterior winds up in one, rethink your calendar now and go to http://cheapdfw.com/cheap-flight-dallas-costa-rica-belize-central-america-dl/ to settle your flight arrangements.

If you simply can’t juggle your priorities at present and won’t be able to travel until summer’s end for myriad reasons, please don’t throw yourself a pity party. It will still be green season when Southwest Airline’s October Houston to Belize service kicks in. How could they ignore the trend when so many other carriers are making beelines to Belize? Get in on the ground floor by visiting https://www.southwest.com/ for ticketing now.

The hard part’s done. You’ve snared tickets and incurred the envy of everyone you know when you mention how affordable your tickets to Belize were. Want to make them livid? Confide that your airline tickets were just the beginning as you describe your stay at a luxury, award-winning resort like Chabil Mar in Placencia Village where all-inclusive packages between June and October can’t be beat: https://chabilmarvillas.com/belize-vacation-packages/special-10-off-belize-summer-vacation.html

Chabil Mar is Eden without the snakes. The rooms are gorgeous. The food–spectacular. And you can take in as many sites as you wish thanks to all of the cash you saved by traveling to Belize during the green season when you can fly and stay in the lap of luxury, even on the smallest salary!

The Youth Regatta that was held this weekend in Placencia Village was a huge success.

Even though the day was windy and challenging, the event turned to be a great weekend for all of the sailors who participated.

“Chabil Mar is proud of our sailor Cianna Garbutt who did an amazing job in the race,” Marketing Manager of Chabil Mar Larry France said about the Youth Regatta which his resort helped to sponsor.

Pictured below is Cianna with staff member Basilio Mes and Faura Cardinez-Franco of the Chabil Mar Concierge Team.

This year’s race started on the piece of beach between Cozy Corner and Tipsy Tuna and featured young sailors from optimist clubs around Belize.

Organized by the Placencia Sailing Club, the purpose of the event is to teach children how to sail and race and to immerse them in a fun and exciting sport that will strengthen them mentally and physically. The race also helps to improve the self-esteem, self-confidence and leadership skills of children.

Employees and frequent guests of Chabil Mar Resort in Placencia Belize have begun joking that the popular resort is going to have to build an extra room with walls enough to display a growing number of awards and honors that have been heaped on the luxury hideaway over time.

The most recent, a coveted TripAdvisor Certificate of Excellence for 2015, has everyone at Chabil Mar abuzz with excitement because, according to previously honoured guest and reservations managers Natalie Ranguy and Althea Schable, “We want the world to know exactly how special this boutique hotel is!”

According to Google Analytics, TripAdvisor is “the largest travel community in the world, reaching 340 million unique visitors,” so when their evaluation team chooses one resort to honour over all others within its class, travelers know that they can expect excellence and signature service on all levels if they choose a destination receiving TripAdvisor kudos.

From location, sequestered within the 18-mile of Placencia Peninsula, to a finite number of cloistered villas offering travelers the ultimate in privacy within a lush tropical sanctuary–plus fine dining and myriad amenities–Chabil Mar is frequently chosen by media (television producers and magazine editors) for its picturesque environs, accomodations and proximity to Belize attractions active guests crave.

In fact, Chabil Mar is a perennial winner of TripAdvisor laudits (http://www.tripadvisor.ca/Hotel_Review-g291977-d600573-Reviews-Chabil_Mar-Placencia_Stann_Creek.html), but the awarding of such accolades never gets old, say resort personnel and management. Chabil Mar is known throughout the country and tourism community for its “Guest Exclusive Resort Policy,” where personalization and pampering are prioritized.

“We are both proud and delighted to be a leading resort in the categories of Luxury, Romance, Family, Service and Small Hotels for Central America and Belize,” enthused Chabil Mar’s marketing manager Larry France, “and we can’t thank our staff enough for their astounding work and personal attention. This is, once again, their award!”

Chabil Mar is a privately owned and held resort located in the Stann Creek District of Belize. It opened its doors in 2005 and has built an international reputation over time. Chabil Mar—Mayan for “Beautiful Sea”—is nestled between a Garifuna settlement and the former Creole fishing village of Placencia and in close proximity to ancient Mayan ruins, rainforests, jungles and some of the best scuba and deep-water diving in the Eastern Hemisphere.
