"We can to Belize for a 10 day trip celebrating our 10 year wedding anniversary. We stayed at the Pelican Beach Resort the last two of the ten days. The place is quite nice and is right on the Caribbean Sea. It had a nice long dock, volleyball court, restaurant called Coconuts. The place seemed to be well maintained and manicured. The food at the restaurant was decent. We also met the original owner who started this resort all the way back in 1971. Such a sweet lady. Really enjoyed getting to...
