Nothing screams “just the two of us” better than escaping to someplace with your loved one where it’s literally just the two of you spending quality time with each other. And if you’ve been planning that love-filled quick getaway, you’re in for a treat. That’s because we’ve scouted two of the most romantic stays in Belize for you to take that much-awaited vacation and do Belize naturally. After all, a villa in Placencia and an estate room in Mountain Pine Ridge are popular tourist destinations and for more reasons than one. From a tropical climate, vast greens, and serene beaches to a rich culture and appetizing food, there’s so much that this corner of Central America and the Caribbean has to offer. The icing? Private snorkeling offshore on a pristine day-tripper’s island, an all-villa beachside resort, picnicking at the foot of a waterfall, and 7,200 acres all to yourself on a private estate.
Two Destinations, One Package
It’s your choice how to split up your 7-day package, with either 3- or 4-days at each destination. If you’re looking to “do Belize naturally,” this package gets into the two sides of Belize: its beachy coastline and lush, verdant interiors.
Your Jungle Destination: Hidden Valley Inn & Reserve
You’ll see guest exclusive as the common thread woven within this package. After all, Hidden Valley Inn & Reserve practically offers 7,200 acres to their guest’s disposal—that includes private waterfalls, like the breathtaking Butterfly Falls, all to yourself. A sanctuary of nature, your retreat is 4 nights in an Estate Room, outfitted with cozy touches like an outdoor shower and even a fireplace, plus all meals, a private waterfall picnic lunch (with champagne!), and a full-day guided tour to Caracol Maya Site, Rio Frio Cave and Rio on Pools.
Butterfly Falls is just one of five major waterfalls inside Hidden Valley Inn & Reserve.
And with transport covered from the Philip Goldson International Airport to Hidden Valley Inn, your next destination after is Chabil Mar Guest Exclusive Villas.
Your Beach Destination: Chabil Mar

Built to face 400 feet of private, barefoot-perfect beach, Chabil Mar Guest Exclusive Villas is a beachfront tropical paradise that’ll have you swooning. Combined with experiences on-site like stand-up paddleboarding, yoga, and private BBQ dinners, you’ll have an authentic guest-exclusive experience that feels intimate yet indulgent—all within reach of your Placencia beach villa.

Scuba diving and snorkeling the Laughing Bird Caye National Park to experience offshore marine life, trekking to the summit of Tiger Fern in the world’s first jaguar preserve, and visits to local markets and art locales just a ¾ mile stroll to the center of Placencia Village are some of the things to do during your stay. Although, your “Do Belize Naturally” package includes a few of these, all meals, a Monkey River tour, and an expedition, plus your one-way flight from Placencia to Belize International Airport (BZE). With tropical gardens that come with a view of the Caribbean Sea from the entire self-contained unit, this is one of the most romantic destinations on the Placencia peninsula.
