While the economy has most Americans cutting back on expenses, a vacation is one activity that has not been slashed from the budget. The Travel Industry Association reports that despite financial uncertainty, Americans are still on the move. As winter drags on, many vacationers look to the warmer climates of Caribbean resorts, such as Belize vacation villas.



Discerning travelers have discovered La Perla del Caribe Resort, a private beachfront enclave of Caribbean resort villas on the white sands of North Ambergris Caye, the largest island off the coast of Belize.

Luxury Caribbean beach villas are becoming increasingly popular for vacationers. Instead of feeling trapped within four walls of a cookie-cutter hotel room, guests can spread out and make themselves at home in spacious indoor and outdoor living areas. While beach villa rates are higher than those of standard hotel rooms, they are well worth it for the incomparable feeling of seclusion, lavish surroundings and amenities. Instead of fighting hordes for an open lounge chair, you can sun yourself on your private deck.

La Perla del Caribe beach villas offer unrivaled accommodations. The spacious two, to five bedroom units are surrounded by private decks just steps away from the beach. Each beach villa features a distinctive architectural style, including Moroccan, Guatemalan and Mayan designs. Native exotic hardwoods, such as mahogany and rosewood, are used throughout with decorative tile work in baths and kitchens. Villas, which range in size from 2,200 square feet to 5,500 square feet, are decorated with local artwork and furnished with antiques and artisan-crafted furniture.

La Perla del Caribe can arrange for all the amenities to ensure a memorable vacation. Grocery and bar provisioning allows their guests to prepare family meals together in fully-equipped kitchens. In addition, private Belizean cooks or internationally trained chefs can prepare meals or guests can enjoy meals from local restaurants in the villa. Spa services, including Reiki, massages, manicures and pedicures can also be performed in the privacy of your personal sundeck or screened veranda.

The La Perla del Caribe beach resort can be easily reached by boat, helicopter or puddle jumper from Belize City. The resort is just minutes from the quaint fishing village of San Pedro Town, with shopping, fine dining, music and dancing.
