Where the Sea Meets the Soul
On a quiet stretch of Belize’s sun-kissed southern coastline, where the rhythms of the Caribbean meet the warmth of Garifuna culture, you’ll find a place where charm and authenticity exist in perfect harmony. The Resort at Almond Beach is not just a coastal hideaway—it’s a soulful retreat that redefines barefoot chic.
Tucked just outside the artistic fishing village of Hopkins, this boutique resort is a serene beachfront sanctuary where five-star service feels personal, where each sunrise comes with sea breeze and birdsong, and where every moment invites you to slow down, breathe deeply, and truly arrive.
