With summer approaching, who wouldn’t want to spend some of their saved up vacation days relaxing in the sun? And countries like Mexico and the Dominican Republic are popular destinations with raved about beaches, Belize is slowly but surely gaining popularity and features just as fabulous beaches and excursions.
Belize, found on the eastern coast of Central America, is going to be one of the hottest (pun intended) vacation spots of 2017 (or at least it should be in my opinion). It has the largest coral reef in the Western Hemisphere (and second largest in the world), an incredibly diverse ecosystem, Mayan ruins to explore, and more! If the amazing attractions of Belize haven’t convinced you, maybe these vacation rentals will (since they’re all under 100 USD a night).
We handpicked these listings carefully, considering (wherever possible) Superhost status, recent guest reviews, location, accommodation type, prices, availability of dates, decor, and amenities. The image galleries get refreshed with the latest updates regularly. They were last updated on March 13, 2023.
