We have not retired to Belize yet but we have bought a condo on Ambergris Caye. I went first to Belize in May, 2013 on a Chill Weekend. The people were wonderful because I have Multiple Sclerosis and the plane ride was too much. But, I was on the Island and could see a lot. The Carribean was azure, the sand was white, and I fell in love. But, to make it fair, I sent my husband on a tour that left from Belize City to Corazal – he left in a van and he said the ride was “very bumpy’, they boarded a small boat and sailed down the river which had jungle on both sides to Mayan ruins, had lunch prepared by Mennonites, got back into a van, and ended up in Corazal. We had initially looked at Orchid Bay in the Corazal region but when he returned home, he told me that the jungle was right there which I did not like. So, in January, 2014, we both went to Ambergris Caye, Belize, and my husband fell in love with that, too. That was our experience! The jungle was too close for comfort!
