I received a voucher in the mail yesterday from the Belize Tourism Board saying I won a trip for two to Belize for a week. I signed up at the Beneath the Sea Dive Expo a few weeks ago. The package includes 3 nights at The Villas at Banyan Bay in San Pedro and three nights The Inn at Roberts Grove in Placencia Peninsula, along with all the connecting flights in Belize. My wife and I talked about going to Belize sometime but didn't think about it for this year. The deal is good till November of this year. We still would have to pay for airfare, diving and food. So it's not a free trip, just a little less expensive trip. We were considering going and maybe staying a few extra days. So my questions are:
1. Did anyone ever stay at any of these places, and if so..how was it?
2. If you were going to stay and dive and/or site-see an extra few days, would you stay in San Pedro or Placencia?
3. Is the BLue Hole trip a MUST DO?
4. What dive sites and/or things to do would you recommend?
From my brief understanding, San Pedro has the better diving but Placencia is more remote and more untouched areas. Any input would be greatly appreciated.
