Grand Caribe's aim is to constantly provide its new guests and returning guests with a great and better experience. If you've already been to Grand Caribe and thought your visit was great; just wait for your second visit! Only in its first year, we've had many returning guests and our first priority is to be better than the last visit. Excellence is not about being stagnant its about constant improvement and aiming for a better experience every time a guest walks through the lobby doors. This policy not only applies for our guests but to our owners as well. We want our owners to be excited every time they return.

Mr and Mrs Mike and Myra Rio have, after years of travel, found there home away from home. Retirees from Texas, USA they were one of the first to purchase and move to Grand Caribe. As experienced travellers, they have been coming to Belize for five years and have been at Grand Caribe for three and spend approximately 4-6months in Ambergris Caye.

They agreed to sit with me for a short interview about why they chose Grand Caribe and Belize, and what they love about it.

When asked "Why Belize?" both Mr and Mrs. Rio immediately had answers, they showed confidence and security in their decision. They claimed that the decision was two-fold. Primarily, Belize as a country is (for a 3rd world country) very stable and corruption is less than in neighbouring Mexico, and both Central America and Caribbean countries; making it a secure investment. And the property value is (in their opinion) the best in the Caribbean. Secondly the culture of Belize is open and inviting, they felt that "people want you to be here." They felt safe and welcomed in San Pedro where they felt comfortable within the community.

The Best Birthday Celebration Destination
JAN 26, 2011 | TRIP TYPE: COUPLES

I selected Grand Caribe from a list of resorts on Ambergris Caye off of the Internet. I liked the look of it from the pictures, but that isn't always a true representation. In this case it is 100% accurate, and we could not have been more pleased with our experience. Both my boyfriend and I agree that the Grand Caribe was the best resort we saw on the island (and we looked at others while we were there to make a comparison and judgment for subsequent visit options), in terms of location (easy beach walk, bike ride and/or jog into town), and amenities (Poolside Bar and Grill, On Site Concierge/Activity Coordinator, 24 hour security staff, and daily housekeeping). Although an exercise room would have been nice, we made do with daily runs on the dirt/sand road that runs North and South, which provided some interesting scenery. The entire staff at Grand Caribe was friendly and very accommodating. Eli set us up on two wonderful excursions, one for a half day private sailboat/snorkeling charter, and the other for a mainland Mayan Ruins full day tour. The entire trip was one of the best birthday celebrations I've ever had, and we left the island feeling more satisfied with our experience than we had even remotely anticipated. We came home raving about it with lots of photos, and our friends are now eager to arrange their own trips to Grand Caribe.

Sometimes you just need to hear it from someone else! We have had great reviews on TripAdvisor, here is the most recent, take a look and then check out our page on TripAdivsor and read some more.

Exceeded Expectations...Beautiful escape.

GRAND CARIBE BELIZE RESORT AND CONDOMINIUMS

 

Grand Caribe Belize, Resort and Condominiums can accommodate a stay of any length of time, so don't limit yourself. Most traditional hotels only accommodate stays for short term visits and are not equipped for stays of over a week. The units at Grand Caribe are fully equipped and built with permanent residents in mind, therefore; they have all the conveniences and amenities of a home. The kitchens have every appliance and tool necessary to cook up a storm. Not to mention comfortable indoor and outdoor living space is the standard at Grand Caribe. And since they are so comfy, they make the occasional rainy day (more likely on a long stay) bearable. You'll feel like you went and bought yourself an island condo.
 

Belize was coined the slogan "Mother Nature's Best Kept Secret," by the Belize Tourism Board, however, the secret is out. Its out and Belize is stealing the hearts of people from all over the world. A little jewel in more ways than one. Belize is only 180mls long X approx. 68mls wide; yet it has all the attractions a person could ask for in the tropics. Zip lining through the rainforest, discovering the history of the Mayas, diving the blue hole and snorkeling the 2nd largest barrier reef in the world are just a few of the different adventures Belize has to offer, in order to appeal to any adventurer.
