The hotel offers amenities for your comfortable stay and unforgettable experiences

Very nice On-Site Food

During my stay, I was blown away by the quality of the food at Chabil Mar. The fresh fish, amazing fruits, and coconut rice were just a few of the scrumptious dishes I enjoyed. It was so good that I found myself ordering room service most nights. The convenience of having such excellent dining options right on-site made my stay even more enjoyable!

Lovely Villa Amenities

My villa was very spacious and well-appointed, equipped with a full kitchen and a washer and dryer. This made it easy to settle in and enjoy my stay. The beautiful decor with warm Belizean touches added to the overall charm of the place. Coming back to such a comfortable and inviting room after a day of exploring was a real treat!

Relaxing Pool Experience

I spent countless hours lounging by the two infinity pools, which were perfectly maintained and surrounded by stunning gardens. Swimming felt like a dream, as the pools seamlessly blended into the beautiful Caribbean atmosphere. It was the perfect combination of relaxation and beauty, making my vacation feel like a true escape.

Family-Friendly Activities

Traveling with my family was a breeze thanks to the various amenities available for kids. My teens enjoyed biking into town daily, and we made good use of the complimentary kayaks and paddle boards. It was a fantastic way for us to bond as a family and make lovely memories together while exploring the beautiful waters around the resort!
