Two of Belize's top resorts have teamed up to offer a very luxurious "Rainforest-to-Reef" vacation deal, combining the best of the country in one all-inclusive package.
The Lodge at Chaa Creek, located in the heart of the Belize Rainforest, is now accepting booking for the brand new 2012 experience that gives travelers the opportunity to spend a week exploring Maya culture, lush rainforests, and relaxing on one of the country's best island getaways, Ambergris Caye.
The Lodge at Chaa Creek, San Ignacio, Belize
Accommodations at Chaa Creek include a rainforest cottage, full meal plan, excursions to the ancient Maya temples of Xunantunich and the royal palace of Cahal Pech, a tour of Barton Creek Cave and Big Rock Water Falls, rainforest ziplining, guided tours of the Natural History Centre and Butterfly Farm, canoeing, guided nature walks, and round trip ground transfers, including a stop at the famed Belize Zoo.
Chaa Creek has been consistently rated at one of the country's top luxury resorts. It is a private 365-acre nature reserve set on the banks of the Macal River. There are 23 palm-thatched cottage rooms and the property features a hilltop spa and jungle bar. Cottages are individually designed and feature a blend of hand crafted furniture and fine fabrics, and all include a private sundeck veranda where you can really interact with and enjoy your jungle surroundings.
El Pescador, Ambergris Caye, Belize
The Ambergris Caye portion of the package provides for a beach double room, round trip airfare from Belize City to San Pedro, boat transportation from San Pedro Airstrip to El Pescador Beach Resort, two welcome drinks, a snorkeling excursion to Hol Chan and Shark Ray Alley, a full-day fishing expedition with beach picnic, and complimentary use of resort swimming pools, Wi-Fi, gym, kayaks, and bicycles.
There is a tour office, scuba instructor and a massage room onsite. For true fishing enthusiasts, take note that El Pescador is the only Scientific Angler Mastery Series Fly Shop in Belize. The resort also earned a nod as a Forbes Traveler "Top Ten Luxury Eco-Resort" and is a Travelers' Choice 2012 Tripadvisor winner.
Rainforest-to-Reef Package Details
Travelers have the flexibility to choose whether they prefer to begin their vacation in the rainforest or on the Caribbean Sea.
“You can begin with a Caribbean Sea holiday and complete it in the rainforest home of the Maya, or start in the rainforest and enjoy the beaches of Ambergris Caye before heading home," said Mr. Larry Waight, Marketing Administrator for Chaa Creek.
“We worked carefully to pack a lot of activities into the week while still allowing for that all-important relaxation and quality time. And by combining our expertise and resources, we can offer a Belize holiday package that is much less expensive than a similar vacation using separate resorts and tour operators. Everything is included, so there are no surprises and you’re getting real value for money, whether as a family, a couple, individuals or a group."
The Rainforest-to-Reef package is available for booking now. For more information on pricing and availability, please contact The Lodge at Chaa Creek.
