About Belize

Belize, often referred to as “Mother Nature’s Best Kept Secret” has one foot embedded in the tropical jungle of Central America tucked between Mexico (north) & Guatemala (southwest) and another foot immersed in the Caribbean Sea (east), with hundreds of islands ripe for exploration protected by the longest living coral reef the Western Hemisphere. This makes Belize a unique location that is recognized as a Central American country and a Caribbean country. By visiting Belize, home to Belizean Dreams Resort, you get the best of both worlds.
