We traveled the Caribbean and found that after a while every island started to look the same, with their Diamonds International, and thatched roof Starbucks - that is until we visited Ambergris Caye.
The waters surrounding Ambergris Caye are too shallow for cruise ships to dock, thus the island has escaped becoming the tourist traps that many have succumbed to.
Our small island is home to only 22,000 people, and every restaurant, shop and tour is owned and run by local people with a friendly Belizian flaire that you won't find anywhere else. There are no chains or franchises, just wonderful, eclectic local gems to be discovered as you explore the island.
We loved the fact that Belize is English speaking and the U.S. dollar is accepted just like the Belizian dollar at a rate of 1 USD to every 2 BZE, which makes it super easy to pay for dinner!
After some research we discovered that Grand Caribe is the nicest resort on the island. Grand Caribe is truly a five star resort with top notch staff who want nothing more than to make your vacation one you'll remember for a lifetime. When we travel, we like to treat ourselves to the best, and that's why we purchased our home at Grand Caribe.
