Sophie has been saving for a 2026 Caribbean vacation for such a long time, her friends and family have become weary of listening to her updates. There’s a reason she’s been using them as sounding boards. She knows where she wants to go, but friends keep telling her that each location she identifies suffers from a common problem: One destination focuses so much on activities, the itinerary sounds exhausting. Another specializes in cultural experiences but leaves little time for relaxing.
Fortunately, Sophie consulted a close friend, asking for recommendations. Susan, it turned out, was exactly the person she needed to find the right destination. “Ever hear of Belize?” She asked. “Those party towns aren’t my cup of tea,” Sophie responded, at which point, Susan began to describe the Village of Hopkins. “You’re going to find the perfect mix of adventure, culture, and relaxation." Susan promised. Sophie was all ears!
“While I’m at it, how about a resort recommendation, too?”
To this day, Sophie has Susan to thank for helping her choose one of the most laid-back villages in Belize where all three of her goals were met during her getaway, including learning about Belizean Dreams Resort, the quintessential Belize property with access to every one of Sophie’s travel desires. Not only is Hopkins the acknowledged cultural center of Belize’s Garifuna people, but the town has been voted “The Friendliest Village in Belize” by Belize's First Magazine. /hopkins-belize
Pair Hopkins’ cultural vibe with a fun assortment of pubs, shops, entertainments, and activities and you can stay as busy as you like. When it’s time to pick tours, Belizean Dreams’ concierge has you covered with a menu of choices that are so diverse, Sophie found herself speechless. You might feel the same way!
