Finding the Best Family Resort in Belize

Posted on

The Perfect Family Vacation Awaits in Belize

When it comes time to planning a fantastic Caribbean vacation, it can be tough to find a resort that has something for young children, preteens, teens, and adults. Adults want sophisticated food and luxury services like spa treatments while children prefer to play on the beach or splash in the pool. And the calculations get even more complex when it’s time to choose activities that the whole family can enjoy.

One of the best family resorts in Belize is Chabil Mar, which, in the local Mayan dialect, means “beautiful sea,” an apt description for the gorgeous stretch of Caribbean beach where Chabil Mar is located. Much more than a hotel, Chabil Mar is a true luxury resort, with plenty of room for kids to safely play. The resort has its own private stretch of beach, a lush tropical garden, a gourmet restaurant, and two freshwater infinity pools.

Chabil Mar is located on Placencia Peninsula just a few miles offshore from the fabled Belize Barrier Reef, a mecca for snorkelers and scuba divers. Chabil Mar offers luxury villas that have a full complement of modern conveniences and comforts, including air-conditioning, cable television, and high-speed wireless internet.

The resort offers guests the complimentary use of bicycles, paddle boards, and kayaks, making it easy to explore the coastline or head down to Placencia Village, a short, five-minute walk away. There’s also a gift shop and an on-site golf cart rental facility at Chabil Mar.

Belize offers kids activities & family fun for the whole gang!

And when it comes time to choosing activities, Chabil Mar can arrange for guided tours to all of the top destinations in the country. Kids and adults both love activities like visiting a nature park, exploring an ancient Maya ruin, or a delicious meal made from fresh-caught seafood. Nearby attractions include the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary (home to more than 200 jaguars), boat tours along the well-named Monkey River, and ancient Maya sites like Nim Li Punit and Lubantuum.

Chabil Mar Resort is just a couple of miles from some of the most pristine and picturesque islands on the reef, the perfect location to enjoy activities like fishing, snorkeling, scuba diving, sailing, sea kayaking, and stand-up paddling. And few experiences can compare to a beach barbecue!

Chabil Mar offers family-friendly accommodations!

This year, choose Belize and Chabil Mar for your family’s vacation. You’ll enjoy a great time together in one of the most beautiful places on the planet, and the kids might even learn a few things along the way too. What more could you ask for?

About the Placencia Peninsula and the Village of Placencia

Situated at the end of a 16 mile Placencia Peninsula sits this small seaside Village of Placencia (population about 2000), with a tourist element. Adding to the charm of this traditional fishing village are the numerous eateries, beach bars, art galleries and shops along with the spectacular, unspoiled and un-crowded crescent beach. Known locally as “Barefoot Perfect” and “The Island You Can Walk To”, Placencia is the only place on mainland Belize that has white sand beaches.

Recently, GQ magazine called Placencia “a quaint town that seems to have forgotten about mass tourism”. Like most destinations, location is paramount to a truly unique experience, including Belize, and Placencia is no exception. Situated on the mainland and located on the Caribbean Sea, Placencia is the doorway to Belize’s most sought after activities on land and sea.

Chabil Mar’s location, a ¼ mile along the beach from Placencia Village Center, is a fifteen minute stroll, bike in five minutes, kayak or paddle board to lunch and back, golf cart (on-site rental available) or hop in our Van for complimentary evening shuttles. Enjoy the Village lifestyle, culture, markets, dining, beach bars and daily routines at your leisure, then slip back to the guest exclusive beach, pier, pool and villa services at Chabil Mar.

Placencia Belize: Best Destination To Celebrate A Mother’s Day Trip

Posted on

Placencia Belize Best Destination To Celebrate A Mother's Day Trip
She changed your diapers, put up with your “terrible twos,” stood by when your teen romances dissolved like bubbles and she’s the first person to say, “I really don’t want a thing” each time you say, “Mom, what do you want for Mother’s Day?”

If you know that flowers and candy won’t cut it because neither conveys the deep love you have for your mother, the gift of a vacation in Belize is guaranteed to elevate you to the status of being mom’s favorite child (even if you have no brothers and sisters).

The Caribbean in mid-May becomes a wonderland for moms who are often shocked that their kid(s) sprung for such a remarkable gift. You don’t have to reveal that shoulder season has started and while the weather stays idyllic, rates drop appreciably. Winter crowds have vanished, so she doesn’t have to deal with crowds. 

Once Mom gets over the shock of learning that you’re taking her to Belize, we recommend handing her pen and paper and asking her what she thinks about the following attractions so you can book the ones that are ideal:

-Did she call you “little monkey” when you were a toddler? A Monkey River tour is relaxing and calming–until primal shouts of critters for whom the river was named liven up the journey. 

-Does your mom wax poetic about reading poetry on a beach with a cocktail in hand? Belize, and particularly Placencia peninsula beaches, has so many gorgeous beaches, making a decision can be difficult.

-Does your mom literally light up when the word chocolate is mentioned? Belize chocolate tours are delicious. Mom can make her own chocolate bar and she doesn’t have to share it with you if she doesn’t want to. 

-Is your mom known for taking in every stray animal on the planet? Delight her with Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary, Belize Zoo or other animal-focused tours that she’ll talk about for years to come.

-Has your mom read so many murder mysteries, it’s hard to find one she hasn’t already finished? Mayan ruins throughout Belize are tucked into jungles and mysterious caves where sacred chambers still hold artifacts, ritual items and skeletal remains. 

mothers day in belize

Of course, the resort you pick for mom’s getaway can make the difference between a so-so journey and one that’s unforgettable. One of Placencia’s most popular resorts is Chabil Mar where villas, amenities and luxury are exactly what mom deserves. Chabil Mar’s onsite gourmet restaurant, spa and pool get rave reviews from Fodor’s, TripAdvisor and organizations dedicated to promoting resorts that prioritize the environment, so she’ll be pampered throughout her stay. 

Direct Mom to this page on the Chabil Mar website. Don’t be surprised if she tears up and says, “The place looks like paradise!” It is. And since she’s your angel, Chabil Mar is exactly the place she deserves to be over the Mother’s Day holiday.

  • Three of the resort’s signature tours to the top spots on the mainland.

As with the four-night package, the seven-night package includes lodgings in one of Chabil Mar’s luxury villas.

Other activities that you can enjoy when staying in Chabil Mar include:

  • Swimming with whale sharks – These gentle giants are the largest fish in the world’s oceans.
  • Learning about Belize’s unique Garifuna culture, an Afro-Caribbean people honored by the United Nations for their music, drumming, and dance.
  • Lobsterfest – A beach party and three-day festival celebrating the opening of the lobster season in Belize.

“We came to Belize and stayed at the Chabil Mar resort last year for our summer vacation after one of our friends went there and raved about it. The entire family had a blast! Whether it was lounging on the beach or getting our Indiana Jones on at an ancient Maya temple, our vacation to Belize was truly amazing.”

-Tom Schroeder and Family, Norwich, Connecticut
