One glance at today’s newspaper headlines and you may wonder whether peace on earth is nothing more than a utopian dream that’s given lip service when the holidays approach every year. No wonder yoga classes, meditation, holistic healing, and massages have become favorite ways to dial down the noise in our elusive quest for tranquility. Rather than focus on the reason for the season, too many people in our rushed society succumb to the hustle and bustle of shopping, cooking, cleaning, and hosting friends and family, each of which adds stressors to an already hectic schedule. And when family get-togethers go swimmingly—but you’re left to clean up the mess—it’s no wonder end-of-the-year festivities have their stress tagged on!
Happily, there’s a way to escape responsibility gracefully and turn the holidays into the peaceful, delightful year-end celebration you crave but didn’t think existed: Forget about hosting, planning, shopping, and the long list of tasks that keep you awake at night. Move your celebration plans to an all-villa Belize resort where your only responsibilities are relaxing and letting other people take care of the details.
At your service!
Sound too good to be true? At Chabil Mar Villas, dread associated with the upcoming celebrations can vanish the moment you book a stay at this delightful, beachfront Belize property located on the Placencia peninsula, perhaps the most laid-back area you’ve ever visited.
Spend your holidays in the sunshine
Close your eyes. It’s Thanksgiving or Christmas morning. Imagine a team of culinary experts preparing meals during your holiday stay at Chabil Mar where villa-style accommodations make you feel like a VIP. Take a peek at those digs and you’ll have more reason to celebrate than just a crew of staffers eager to make your year-end holiday blissful.
In addition to relaxing within the confines of your home-away-from-home and letting other people see to libations and holiday meals, all the sunshine you can handle makes this a unique year-end getaway, especially if the folks you invited to accompany you decided to stay home where shoveling snow and toiling over a hot stove proves just how wise you were to head south.
Get more benefits by choosing a Chabil Mar Belize vacation package and/or a seasonal special deal that requires a little more lead time to make sure the resort isn’t booked to capacity during the holiday you have chosen for your visit. Chabil Mar’s accommodations may be grand but the resort is small and intimate, reason enough to make your reservations early.
What you can expect from your holiday hiatus
From the moment you’re picked up at the airport by the Chabil Mar van, you get celebrity treatment that includes a welcome beverage, a tour of the resort, and the welcoming smiles of resort team members who are genuinely delighted to have you celebrate the holidays in their homeland. They’ll even point you in the direction of local houses of worship if this is part of your annual celebration.
Every minute of your stay will be filled with delightful experiences like swimming in either the beachside infinity swimming pools or piloting guest-exclusive kayaks, paddle boards, and bicycles. You’ll definitely want to explore the Placencia peninsula, home to Chabil Mar, by bike or via complimentary shuttles to Placencia Village where a world of fun awaits.
Find out how it feels to spend a carefree holiday
It can take a little time to get used to the level of service you’ll enjoy during your holiday stay at Chabil Mar Villas because you may not be used to being waited on hand and foot—especially if you’re the one who feels obligated to make sure everyone else’s holiday is perfect, even if it means extra work.
You’ll have to get used to having an onsite concierge at your beck and call, a team of gourmet chefs in charge of holiday meals, and the roaming butler service seeing to your needs as you contemplate ocean waves rolling in, but we can assure you, you will quickly adjust to all this pampering and spoiling.
The peace and tranquility enjoyed by the first celebrants of Thanksgiving—the Pilgrims and Native Americans at Plymouth Rock and the blessed calm in Bethlehem during the first Christmas—remain the quintessential models of inspiring year-end celebrations. At Chabil Mar, you’ll be the recipient of glad tidings as you have time to think about the amount of gratitude you feel for treating yourself to a holiday getaway that soothes your spirit, returning home with new resolve to maintain your Chabil Mar state of mind well into the year ahead!
