Get The Most Out Of A Luxury Resort Belize Vacation

By Patrick Perry


Are you someone who reads about and watches celebrities traveling to exotic places, basking in the sun and sand, the enjoying every amenity an exclusive retreat can offer? If so, a luxury resort Belize vacation is something you might aspire to for yourself. It boasts an amazingly azure blue coastline, famous Caribbean beaches, and incredible glimpses into ancient civilizations. It can also provide you with an underwater adventure like no other, if that is the sort of thing that interests you.

For those unfamiliar with the area, this country boasts an ancient culture, one steeped in Mayan tradition. The civilization walked the beaches and built their immense cities right where you will be touring if you travel to this destination. The Mayan culture is well known to archaeology buffs, art historians, and international explorers. Anyone who is interested in how these fascinating people lived, worked, and prayed will be delighted by all the region has to offer. It also a plus that most current citizens speak excellent English.

The Mayan ruins are a must see during your visit. At one time it was believed that this country was at the edge of the Maya's culture, but more recent excavations have revealed that, at one time, it was at the center. If you are new to this area, taking advantage of the tours may be the best idea.

Carcacol is the largest and most impressive sites in the country, and one that will amaze you. It was discovered by loggers in the early part of the twentieth century and has continued to amaze since then. Hieroglyphic carvings cover facades, interior walls, and altars of this ancient city. It is one of the most amazing sights you will ever see.

To really get a sense of just how skilled the Mayan artisans were, you should certainly make a visit to Kunantunich. It is here that you will get to see the gigantic friezes that tell amazing visual stories. If you had to be convinced that this ancient civilization was a wonder of the world, you will become a believer here.

If you are ready for a break from touring ruins, you can choose to spend time relaxing on one of the beautiful beaches, or you could suit up and explore an underwater phenomenon like the Great Blue Hole. It is hard to believe that this is actually a perfectly round submarine sinkhole. Qualified divers are allowed to explore the hole and always marvel at how it keeps getting more intricate the deeper you dive.

The Blue Hole is just a small section of Belize's barrier reefs, formally known as the Mesoamerican Barrier Reef System, the largest such system in the northern hemisphere. This is a dream destination for diving and marine life enthusiasts. While it is critical to maintain the integrity of the area, you can respectfully explore the hundreds of coral species, the amazing variety of fish and other aquatic life that inhabits the reefs.

Once you have returned to your luxury accommodations, you will be able to choose from the wide variety of options your resort offers. Relax at the spa, feast on world class cuisine, or sit back and enjoy some fabulous entertainment. It's all up to you.
