THE LOCAL SAYING “No shirt, no shoes, no problem” sets the tone for a laid-back tropical vacation on Ambergris Caye, Belize’s largest island. On the northern Caribbean coast, nestled on five acres of beachfront property, travelers find a home away from home in five-star Las Terrazas Resort, the country’s only member of the Preferred Hotel Group.

Here, time passes by with relaxing ease, encouraging guests to embrace their inner adventurer and surrender to the natural beauty. Couples can enjoy a range of watersports, including snorkeling, parasailing and kayaking. They also discover exotic wildlife along the lagoon and small mangrove cayes.

What’s more, Ambergris Caye is home to 185 miles of pristine barrier reef, making it a world-class dive destination. Those looking for pure relaxation lounge on the beach or by the infinity pool.

Guests retreat to fully furnished, one- to three-bedroom townhomes, all set by the sea and all featuring balconies (some with plunge pools) as well as custom mahogany furniture and spacious kitchens.

Most brides and grooms say their vows on Las Terrazas’ beach overlooking the ocean. The resort’s event staff oversees all the details, leaving couples to relax and take care of the most important thing: each other.
