BESTE ZWEI SCHLAFZIMMER-HAUS MIT POOL IN COROZAL Meerblick, tropische Brise

I live in Victoria, British Columbia. and when I am not in Canada I love to spend time in Belize, usually 6 months of the year. I chose this location because it is an English speaking country in the Caribbean, is governed by British law, has terrific weather and I especially like the people of Belize. I am very interested in the Mayan culture. You will see evidence of their Mayan past as you travel thoughout Belize. The Ruins are fascinating and there are many of them.

There are so many things to see and do in this country, and getting around is easy. Visiting little villages around the area is a delight and a visit to the Mennonite communities is a wonderful experience. I enjoy visiting all the cities in Belize.
Chetumal, Mexico is close by. It's only 12 miles to the border and the Free Zone is 7 miles away. Chetumal has everything that you could need, including a Sam's Club. You'll never know you are in Mexico if you go to Liverpool in Chetumal. There they have many stores like we have in our respective countries, and they have the best that Mexico has to offer. If you're a fancier of shoes, look up the Flexi store at Liverpool.

Fill up on gas at the Free Zone before you go to Mexico. as it is duty free there. It makes a difference especially with a larger car.

We have a staff member who can accompany you to Chetumal, this helps immensely in getting through the two borders, especially if you don't speak Spanish. He/she can then give you a tour of this seaside city. The cost is $100.00 Bz (50.00 US) plus meals for the day. Everyone who uses this service is delighted, as you get to see so much more and get a better understanding of the culture. They can also recommend places to eat and shop, especially if you are looking for something special. Don't forget to look at the hammocks before you leave. Using a hammock is great for the back and is a colourful addition to your home.

Being located on a canal is a real plus, as it is only a half block to the open ocean. There is a 41 ft slip on the canal. It doesn't get much better than this, yet the home is protected by being tucked away from the ocean front which can get pretty frantic during storm season. Two sides of our property is bordered by the canal, so there is little traffic in our area. Being away from downtown is a big plus, as we are not kept up by barking dogs and the partying that goes on in Belizean and Mexican cities.

My home is unlike houses in Belize, in that it is fully equipped just like my home in Canada. The plumbing and electrical is up to American/Canadian standards, which is unusual here.

We are located at the edge of the town in an area of high end homes, so if you like being in the fray this is not the place for you. We cater to guests who appreciate the quiet atmosphere and the beauty of the surroundings. Also, the safety of being on a dead end street. Once in a while we get people who dock us points on their reveiw because of the location. That is very detrimental to us, as we try hard to give our guests a great experinece and supply much more than most hosts. We make it clear that our location is not downtown, and losing points for something that is not changeable is unfair. We see the location as a plus, so if you value peace and quiet you will enjoy the home.

I love the views from the property and enjoy the pool on a hot day. Just a dip in the pool can make my day as it is very refreshing, I also do exercises in the pool as it's a great way to relax. It is quieter here, as this is the last house on a dead end street. For that reason, I think it is safer as there is only one road in and out. We have a Neighborhood Watch on the street and everyone participates in keeping each other safe. Our alarm system also adds to our safety.
The house is about a half mile to the main highway, that will take you any where you want to go in Belize.
The house is built to Canadian and American standards, so you will feel very much at home here. We are a 20 minute walk to downtown, yet far enough away to enjoy a much quieter lifestyle.
