Las Terrazas Resort

Situated right on the white sandy beach,3.5 miles north of San Pedro; Las Terrazas is a resort in the proper sense of the word — there’s a huge infinity pool, a fine-dining restaurant, a spa and wellness center, the works. That’s why it’s surprising to realize that there are only 37 guestrooms. “Rooms” isn’t the right word, either — at Las Terrazas, they’re more like luxury townhomes comprised of over sized magnificent one, two and three bedroom units, all outfitted in casually elegant Belizean-produced furnishings. The two-story oceanfront residence, opening straight onto the beach, is particularly paradise-like, as is the ocean view penthouse suite, complete with private plunge pool. But even in the standard residences, there’s plenty of room, and more amenities than you’d ever need for a lazy island vacation — including a fully equipped kitchen, a separate dining room, and two large bathrooms. At Las Terrazas you can experience sun and sea and jungle. Las Terrazas Resort is home to O Restaurant, offering a full menu of breakfast, lunch, and dinner to hotel guests and island tourists alike. Be sure to inquire about their romantic Private Beach Dinner, which features a customized menu and dedicated server on the pristine white sand beach. Daytime activities include a complimentary fleet of paddle boards, kayaks, and Hobie Cats ready to be taken into the water. For something even more relaxed, there are lovely white-cushioned chaise lounges waiting on every terrace and stretch of sand.
