The pier and beach of Grand Caribe

Amenities, attractions and activities are the 3 A's that make all the difference. Whats a nice room if there's nothing to do? This is certainly not a problem here at Grand Caribe!

Foot Prints swim-up bar and grill

To truly appreciate these 3 A's lets look at them one at a time. First up attractions! Grand Caribe has 500ft of beach, something to boast about down in these parts! A pier that creates not only an amazing view but a port for private /commercial/taxi/and tour boats, great for sunbathing, swimming in deeper water and a gazebo to hang out on or even have a party! Beautiful days on the beach and pier are a must! However, if the beach isn't enough; our set of pools , 1 large, 2 smaller with 2 jacuzzies should quench your thirst. The larger pool even has a handy swim up bar to literally quench your thirst. In addition, Foot Prints swim-up bar and grill is more than happy to cook up or blend up something tasty but if the swim-up bar isn't your preference you can choose where to eat; whether by the pool, on the beach, on the pier or inside your 'island home.'

One of our cozy units

Each unit at Grand Caribe is seen as an 'island home', somewhere  totally comfortable that has all the amenities of home. For families with younger children Grand Caribe provides portable cribs and babysitting services. For the chef of the house, the sunset and sunrise provisions package and a fully equipped kitchen. A particularly handy package for those with early tours, long stays or teenagers with bottomless pits. All this is without mentioning that they are all fully furnished with homey decor, A/Cs, and TVs with all the regular channels. So after  a long day of tours you can lounge on the couch and keep up with all your favorite shows. But perhaps the biggest amenity is the convenience and safety you have and feel.The safety of 24/7 security watch. The convenience of maid service and most of all a concierge who can assist you in attaining any additional amenity, help with all the various activities available, or even make your dream wedding, honeymoon or wedding renewal possible.

Yet even with all the on-site amenities and attractions; Grand Caribe has plenty of activities to keep you busy or relaxed. Just take a look at all the tours available whether inland, on land, in the water, on the water, or in your room its completely up to you. For the relaxed traveler perhaps some fishing, snorkeling, or even more rejuvenating a massage or spa day! The more adventurous soul could head to the mainland for zip-lining, horseback riding, Maya ruin climbing or go out to sea for some deep sea fishing or dive the blue hole. The sportier sort may do all that and more with para-sailing, jet-skiing, windsurfing and kayaking. And of course our concierge is happy to assist with transport to go exploring; golf carts and bikes can easily be arranged. That's only to mention a few, so just relax and let your imagination go wild and let us know how we can help make your vision of the perfect vacation come true here at Grand Caribe.

La Isla Bonita

Grand Caribe chose its home carefully, settling on nothing less than the perfect mix that is found on the island of Ambergris Caye. Just one mile north of the town of San Pedro was its destined spot. Ambergris Caye proved itself to have all the qualities anyone could ask for, amazing views, close to the reef with four park and marine reserves, a rich history at a Mayan site and at only 15mins by air or approx. 1.5hrs by boat from the mainland, highly accessible.

Of these qualities the most noted would be the Barrier Reef, being the largest of its kind in the Western Hemisphere it protects the island, keeps the beach calm and is an adventure on its own for snorkelers, divers and fishermen alike. This site to be seen lines the entire 25mile coast of Ambergris Caye. Of these 25 miles, 1mile from San Pedro town, there is a special spot consisting of 5 acres with 500ft of pure beach that makes the home of Grand Caribe.  Its proximity to San Pedro Town allows its guests seclusion from the town but yet close enough to access easily.



San Pedro Town



San Pedro, once a fishing town, has maintained its small town roots while modernizing itself for its tourist visitors, with plenty of restaurants and tourist attractions. Yet more often than not its the small town itself that attracts these guests and keeps them coming back. Frequently visitors find themselves in the midst of a local wedding, quinceaños, or a local event such as a charity fashion show, or a high school football game. The hustle and bustle of the friendly laid-back locals makes the little town vibrant and colourful. And Grand Caribe's proximity allows its guests to be a part of all of San Pedro's local culture but also be able to escape to a quiet sandy beach.

So whether you choose to one day revel in peace and tranquility because at one mile north across the Boca del Rio bridge where no cars are allowed and limited access is granted, visitors are guaranteed a worry free vacation; and in the next moment be immersed in another culture. Guests are free to change their moods as frequently as they care to do so. For example, A person can go snorkeling at Hol Chan Marine Reserve in the morning, lunch at Footprints bar and grill here at Grand Caribe, sun at the pool all afternoon, have a sunset bike ride along the beach, followed by dinner and dancing in town; and its all possible in one day from Grand Caribe on the "Isla Bonita." So come by and see what its like to have many vacations in one.




Grand Caribe

This jewel is no secret!

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.



The Beach at Grand Caribe



However, in addition to all that action is Belize's amazing ability to simply relax and refresh its guests. Sunning, swimming, fishing and walks on the beach are only a few ways in which Belize's guests are rejuvenated. Perhaps it has to do with how very young the country is. Only having gained its independence in 1981 from Great Britain, Belize is very much a typical 29yr old, moving forward towards a bright future full of energy and ambition.

Yet as it grows and moves forward everyday, the population remains relatively small. This unique feature allows for it to preserve and conserve its naturally beautiful flora and fauna. And as Belize makes steady progress , it remains true to its relaxed roots, creating a place with all the necessary and luxurious amenities in a setting that remains to be a break from both the big city life and the highly touristic vacation spots.

An ideal place to live, vacation or retire; Belize stands out from the rest (both from its Caribbean and Central American neighbors). This little jewel is certainly multifaceted. Its culture and relaxed lifestyle shines alongside preservation, conservation, adventure, natural beauty, tropical climate and friendly people. And Grand Caribe is proud to be one of the facets of Belize making it shine just that much brighter.
