A lot of folks have asked me why I chose to go to Belize. Well, first and foremost, it was for the water. I wanted to see the clear blue waters of the Caribbean Sea. I was not disappointed. From the moment you leave the Marine Terminal in Belize City and whisked away on a Water Taxi, you are immersed in it. There wasn't a day that passed when I wasn't awed by the beauty of the sea.
I was fortunate enough to have gotten the Cabana at Trends Beachfront Hotel, which is right off the dock. Best of all, it only cost $40 a night! I spent much time sitting in my hammock or on chairs on the porch. There is also a "private" beach in front of the hotel and the water is a stone's throw away. I believe it was the best room you could get on the island.
Coming from Los Angeles, the fact that there were no cars in the street - people used golf carts or bikes to get around - was a godsend. I loved it. Sandy streets, sun, beach and water. I never once missed television or any of the other things we get used to in America. No cell phones, either. That was great.
- Pros:The island lifestyle here is slow and relaxed. No worries.
- Cons:None
- In a nutshell:If you want to be refreshed and find what truly makes life good, go to Caye Caulker

given that they are not open for lunch, . are you sure you had the right restaurant? Could it be you were taken aback by the price more expensive than others? If you are going to leave a bad review, be more specific about what you didn't like.
Will have to add Belize to my travel wish list...very idyllic pics you got there...and good deal on that cabana ~Thanks for sharing!~Heidi
It looks like a trip to paradise! beautiful pictures of a beautiful place!
Just comparing photos of the Caribbean Sea. I'm missing the seaviews in Cancun since I left last week. :( The Pacific Ocean does not compare at all to the Caribbean Sea in my opinion!
excellent page!!
Thanks for ur nice comment! You have a great page about the island, and it really made me want to go back again! Did you also feel like you found a little piece of paradise there...? Maria :)
Excellent Caye Caulker page, you've really captured the easygoing way of life here! I'm bummed I missed the guava juice.
