You don’t have to be traveling on a budget to appreciate a great discount when you come across one. In Belize, it’s true that any time is a great time to visit, with there being warm weather all year round. However, there’s that sweet spot somewhere between the high season and low season where you can cash in the best deals without sacrificing sought-after tours: shoulder season. Most Belize hotels lower their prices and offer extra deals during shoulder season since not many travelers are arriving in the country. Take advantage of these discounts and you’ll earn the title of savvy budget traveler in no time.

Like migratory birds, most North American travelers are looking to escape the cold and venture somewhere tropical in the winter. The math adds up as to why November to February is Belize’s high season, but what about before then? The low season in Belize is argued to be during most of the rainy season (the summer.) That leaves August through September earning that Goldilocks-perfect window to book stays and tours.

Gaïa River Lodge

Gaïa Riverlodge in Belize’s Mountain Pine Ridge forest reserve is one of the many accommodations offering deals during shoulder season. The current deal, running from August 1st to October 31st, allows you to take $15% off when booking. You get to enjoy the total immersion of nature and its on-site waterfall without the crowds. 

Matachica Resort

Beachfront properties meet inspired design at Matachica for a truly restorative getaway.

This deal also applies to Gaïa’s sister property, Matachica Resort, on the delightful island of Ambergris Caye. Fifteen percent off for an adults-only resort on an island known for swooning celebrities’ hearts is a heck of a deal if you ask me. Again, this deal runs from August 1st to October 31st, 2021, so you have plenty of time to book ahead. 

Blue Marlin Beach Resort

Imagine a postcard of paradise, and we’re sure the image your mind conjures up is that of South Water Caye. Sprinkled with palm trees, this silk-sandy island is home to Blue Marlin Beach Resort. Off the coast of Placencia, South Water Caye is a popular spot for snorkeling and diving. You can get to experience that plus a 15% discount if you stay at Blue Marlin Resort. Their deal runs from June 1st to November 13th, 2021.
