The Perfect Valentine’s Day with The Belize Collection: Beach Edition

Everything Belize - A Collection of Words

This Valentine’s Day, show your love with a limited-time getaway from The Belize Collection. After enjoying the splendors of the rainforest, relish your time with a loved one at the beach at The Lodge at Jaguar Reef. There, you can indulge in a full day of delights that’ll inspire and excite the love between you two. We’ve gone ahead and created the perfect itinerary for you.

  1. Maya Chocolate Tour

After checking in and taking a quick look at your accommodations, start your stay with the Maya Chocolate Tour. This tour will take you through the entire chocolate production process according to traditional Maya techniques. Learn the work involved in growing cacao, harvesting it, and transforming it into delectable chocolate treats. Instead of buying chocolate at the store like every other Valentine’s Day, you and your partner will learn how to make chocolate of your very own that you’ll be able to take with you for a midnight treat.

  1. Swim & Savor Ceviche at Big Dock Bar

Once you’ve gorged on some choice chocolate treats, head to the Big Dock Bar where you can leap from the dock straight into the Caribbean Sea. Enjoy the sensation of the warm sea as you course through laps around the dock, or simply thread while enjoying the sound of the waves lapping against the shore. Take a break on the dock where you can lay out and sunbathe while the Big Dock’s ceviche expert prepares for you a zesty and fresh ceviche made from seasonal seafood.

  1. Set Sail on the Hobie Cat

There’s nothing quite so romantic as taking to sea by a sailboat except for maybe venturing out on the lodge’s Hobie Cat. A sailing boat small in size that delivers in both intimacy and adventure, you’ll set to the seas on the coast of Hopkins with our famous Captain Larry. If you’ve got sailing experience, he’ll be glad to hand over the ropes to you so you and your partner can appreciate all it takes to travel with nothing but grit and the wind at your sails.

  1. Private Dinner on the Beach

You’ve done a lot together already, but it’d be a shame to call it a day before enjoying a private dinner on the beach courtesy of the Paddle House. Booked earlier in the day, this quintessential romantic encounter includes a private table, candles and flowers with your meal. Choose from a collection of wines, champagnes or mocktails. Pair with a special Valentine’s Day dinner menu curated by Chef Rahim, available exclusively on the day of love, and have yourselves an exquisite dining experience neither of you will ever forget.

  1. Wind Down in your Private Plunge Pool

As the lodge quietly turns in for the night and the lights begin to go out, retreat to your room for some rest and relaxation. The Deluxe Suite at Jaguar Reef comes equipped with a plunge pool perfect for cuddling and rinsing off the salt air. Take your time and enjoy your company before you launch into your next big day together.

Give yourself and your valentine the getaway that you’ll be talking about for years to come. Celebrate every kind of love with us by booking the Belize My Valentine package.
