Traveler advice
Getting around
Golf cart
The best way to get around the island is by golf cart. There are many golf cart rentals in town. We recommend Rock's Rentals. Nellie can help you reserve one.
Visit Secret Beach. It one of the most beautiful beaches in Belize and is in our backyard. Its only a fifteen minutes ride on golf cart from Las Amapolas. Here the water is crystal clear and shallow. Here you will also find a number of restaurants and bars. Try Sunset Place Bar and Grill.
If you like wildlife visit the iguana park in town by the lagoon. They have over a hundred colorful iguanas roaming the park.
Don't miss

Day Tour/Trips
You may want to book some tours/trips while on the island. See my brother, Captain Robby, he and his family live in the property. He and his sons can take you fishing, snorkeling, and can arrange a diving trip too. Beach picnics can also be arranged.
