The Beach
Caribbean Ocean at Sunrise
If you're like everyone else, the very next question everyone usually asks is: "How far is it to the beach?" The beach can be accessed by taking a short 1-2 minute walk from the property to the shoreline. As they say in Belize, "All beaches are owned by the Queen", so everyone is entitled to free public use and access. Typically beach chairs are reserved for guests staying at the various beachfront hotels. Just throw your towel down on the sand, and enjoy a wonderful afternoon with friends and family as you relax, soaking up some island sunshine. If you feel thirsty, most beachfront hotels do not object selling you an assortment of cool refreshing drinks and snacks.
La Fonda de Nilo
La Fonda de Nilo Restaurant - 652-7977 (Closed Tuesdays)
Within walking distance from Belize Budget Suites, is a very nice little restaurant called La Fonda de Nilo. They offer anything from steaks, pastas, seafood, even individual pizza's for kids. I have often personally walked there myself, to enjoy a wonderful evening out. My favorite is the vegetarian pizza, with a glass of Merlot house wine. Why not stop in at La Fonda de Nilo - will not disappoint.

Caribbean Chicken Grocery Store
Caribbean Chicken Grocery Store - 674-4248 (Closed Sundays)
A very nice local grocery store is about a 5-6 minute walk, from the property. I've walked it many times myself. It’s a small neighborhood grocery store, so the selection is fairly limited, but you’ll find most of the basics. The store is very clean, air conditioned and most of the items you routinely buy can be found here. Their meat selections is what makes this store stand apart from the rest. I feel the quality of meat here, is far superior to any other place in town. They do not carry fresh produce or dairy products, as you typically purchase these at the local produce stands. Milk & cream here in Belize, are sold in box containers. Jaymin calls this the slurpy store, it's where he gets the drink with the straw attached (that goes inside the pouch).

Shaseryn's Produce Stand
Shaseryn's Produce is another local produce stand within walking distance of the property. What I really appreciate about these guys, is "they aim to please". You will often be asked, "When do you plan on eating your selection?" This allows them to make sure you've picked the best piece of produce that's right for you. They bag your selections, and place it on your golf cart. I buy things from them weekly (Jaymin & I will often make the trek on foot), just for the experience of spending time together.

Las Paletas Belize
LAS PALETAS BELIZE - 600-8066 (Closed Saturdays)
Just before you reach Maria's produce stand, you're going to stumble across Regina's Organic Fresh Fruit Palette's (pop-cycle) stand. These are really popular with the young adults and the great thing about them - they're all made with fresh fruit ingredients. These make a great snack after a day of diving, snorkeling, fishing or sailing. Each day, flavors change and many of the flavors you will never be able to try back home, because they're made with tropical fruits only found in Central and South America. This is a "MUST DO" for anyone, if you have a hankering for something cold and refreshing.
