Hello, We are thinking about moving to Belize in a few years. I plan on visiting Corozal within the next few months and then maybe San Pedro before the end of the year to see which area will work best for us. I have not been able to find any hotel ...

Hey Deb, How long is your stay going to be for your first trip to Belize? If it is for a week I suggest you take the puddle jumper to San Pedro as it takes 12-14 minutes. You can look around and walk the streets and have lunch at the Melt and sit on ... Read More

Greetings siamnaco, Corozal and San Pedro are 2 totally different places. San Pedro is very pricy for property as it is a tourist destination. There are a few places to stay at in Corozal and one is the Almond Tree which is very nice. I will be ... Read More

Our family of 4 is planning to stay in Belize for 1 month than return to Europe and within a year to move there. I'm wondering whether is good for us to rent a car for 1 month to explore Belize or buy a car and possibly leave it somewhere till ...

can someone give me an idea of how much just a plain jane 12x24 pool would cost in corozal area? And just 4 feet deep

I paid a tad over 10k for it and as stated it is 5 by 9 meters and is 4 feet deep. My contractor is Hernan Kamal and his partner is Colin Stewart. I am guessing that you met John Harris as that is who does most pools in Corozal. You should read past ... Read More
