Has anyone been to Belize recently? Looking for the latest intel.

Specifically interested in:
- Current price ranges
- Best areas right now
- Any safety concerns to be aware of
- Apps or platforms to use

I was there last year and had a decent time. Wondering if things have changed.

Keen to hear from anyone who has been recently.

Cheers

Adding my experience: scene has evolved since pre-COVID. Biggest change: some old spots closed.

First time was a learning experience. Second time was 10x smoother. Experience makes all the difference.

First time was good but could have been better. Second time was much better. Experience makes all the difference.

Word of caution — be careful with street touts. Other than that, great destination.

I was there in February and prices were exactly as described. Spent about $50/day all-in.

My tip: try the local spots away from tourists.

Good info. Going during the week is much better — less crowded and better prices.

Quick question — how was the hotel security?
