I visited beautiful and peaceful Belize

I visited Hopkins, Belize, which is where Hamanasi and Jaguar reef are. I took my three children and husband. I did not intend to stay in Hopkins but when we passed through I saw the beauty and we decided to stop for the day because that was all we could have afforded at these big resorts. I ended up staying for two weeks because this lady rented us her house, which was about forty feet from the beach. The house was empty because she now lives in Dangriga. It was a concrete building
(Belizean style Bungalow) and had two bedrooms, one toilet, kitchen, refrigerator, stove, two beds and a beautiful yard with mango, orange, lemons and coconut trees. She charged us only $100US a day for all five of us combined. SO THAT WAS LIKE $20 A DAY FOR each person. We cooked our own food and saved a lot of money. That was not the end the lady’s husband is a fisherman and he took us to the islands for the whole day to fish and snorkel for $200. Hopkins is beautiful and that nice lady still has that house for rent. It was so cheap we left her a nice tip. Her email is dainagail@yahoo.com
