I live on the 3rd floor, so I am close in case you need something, but give you your privacy to enjoy your time on the island as you like. Having been to a new foreign country before and knowing NOBODY - I know how scary (but exciting) the unknown can be! Staying with me is like staying with a friend; I care about your well being, notice if I don't see you in a while, and am only a phone call away if you need help or have a question -anytime, day or night! Other things to note To reach the island, you will need to take a puddle jumper plane or a water taxi over to the island from the international airport in Belize City. I am happy to arrange for transportation to/from the water taxi in Belize City (standard fare is $30USD+small tip 1-4 people).

It gives me the opportunity to visit with you and show you my favorite spots on the way to your island home!
