Katrina-

I love your review. I just PM'd you.

We are going to do Belize also.

Deciding between

Victoria House Ambergris Caye (San Pedro)

Victoria House

Or going south to

Turtle Inn (Placencia)
Blancaneaux Lodge | Turtle Inn | La Lancha

If anyone who reads this has been to either one, I would love your feedback and additional information.

We are also open to other small resorts if anyone has a suggestion.

Best
Kathy

Amazing pics of your honeymoon! I'm getting married on Ambergris for a lot of the same reasons you mentioned. I love the authenticity of the island - it does have a gritty, real quality to it (in a good way). While it is more touristy than other areas of Belize, it still feels very quaint and isn't super built up. Gorgeous settings and lovely people. And the snorkeling is fantastic. Seeing your pictures made me excited to again this May for the wedding. Thanks for posting!

Kathy, I haven't stayed at either place you mentioned, but DH and I went to Belize this past summer and stayed at Belizean Shores on the north end of Ambergris Caye. If you don't mind being a 5 minute boat ride from San Pedro, the world slows down a bit and the diving/snorkelling gets even more amazing (its awesome everywhere on Ambergris, but is even more pristine away from San Pedro). If you're looking for nightlife, then San Pedro is more your speed. Either way, you'll love Belize! Its a beautiful country and the people are wonderful!

Here's a link to the review I did... http://bestdestinati...om/forum/t23602. Feel free to PM if you have any questions!

Hi Kathy,
We are also going to Belize for our honeymoon (booking it tomorrow!) I don't know that much about the resorts that you mentioned, but, I did read about them on Trip Advisor and they both sound very nice. We have decided to stay at Matatchica, which is in Ambergris Caye. I am very excited...it sounds awesome! We are booking the honeymoon package (lots of perks!) I'm not sure how many rooms there are since you are looking for a small resort. I could ask my TA about it tomorrow.

Thank you SO much for posting a honeymoon review- I've been reading reviews from different websites and the input just isn't the same as it is on the forum. Your trip looked simply amazing. We definitely want to be able to slow down after a week in PV with family. Thanks again for the post!

Congratulations!! It looks like you had a great honeymoon. Thank you for all the great info - we are looking at Belize for our honeymoon also - did you take the transfer service back to cancun for your flight home? The prices listed are one way only? Just trying to figure cost and logistics - any additional info you could give me would be great!

[idomexico09]

I thought the Turtle Inn looked amazing...wondering about the logistics of travel from cancun though.

We flew from Belize City to home, so any car transfer prices are I listed are one way. Let me know if you have any other questions..
