One Week In Belize

Here are some items to note about the auction for a week's accommodation in Belize: 

This auction is for accommodations only. Transportation is NOT covered. Also, your trip must take place in either December 2020 or 2021. (If traveling from the US, you are responsible for making sure that travel bans from the US are NOT effect.) 

Your transportation would entail a flight to Belize City plus a separate mode of transport to Ambergris Caye island (for example, a 15 minute flight or a 30 minute ferry). It is recommended that you book all of your transport via the airline rather than a travel agent so that you have flexibility. Also, each person is charged a $35 departure tax when leaving Belize. 

A passport is required for each person making the trip. 

The luxury condo being offered for a week (6 days and 7 nights) has 3 bedrooms and 3 baths. It sleeps 8 comfortably. 

We recommend that you read the article entitled "Ten Things You Need to Know Before Traveling to Belize" (https://www.belizehub.com/ten-things-know-traveling-belize/). Here are a few of the topics it covers:  

American currency is accepted there. "The exchange rate from Belize to US dollars is 2:1 meaning tourists get more bang for their buck. Credit cards are accepted but having cash on hand is encouraged since ATMs are few and most businesses charge 5 percent for using credit cards." Also, note that ATMs dispense Belizean currency - not US dollars.  

Belize is home to the second largest reef in the world, topped only by the Great Barrier Reef..  

The chief form of transport on Ambergris Caye is by golf cart. Golf carts are readily available for rental.  

We hope that, should you win this prize, you will enjoy your time in Belize.  If you win, we will contact you by phone to deliver the news. At that time, we would get your mailing address and credit card information.

The stage is surrounded by an amphitheater, which accommodates 20 - 25 people with physical distancing measures in place. If you would like a police officer present to ensure privacy during Pat's concert, that would be offered free of charge.  

"The Weekend at the Lake" (Canyon Lake) is for accommodations only. It is being offered for a 4-day weekend.
