As for sea grass, yuppers they had some, but not nearly as much as some of the other places that we walked past. The dock had steps at the end, so if you wanted to swim around out there, not a problem as far as getting back up. (was about 6' at the end)
As I said REALLY, as in REALLY REALLY liked the location for this trip. It was what we were looking for. They weren't busy at all so it was like having the whole resort to ourselves - and the accommodations were absolutely wonderful. Not to mention the pool, one of the nicest designs that I've seen.
Now your questions about staying there again …
Staying north of the cut was perfect for us. Since we had a kitchen, ate breakfast on the balcony every day. Lunch tended to be our "big" meal, so we went in town 5 of the days that we were there, and if still there by suppertime, ate again! (walked, Island Ferry twice, gulf cart for 2 days). Had Paulie's Pizza once (delieved by golfcart) and one whole day was spent at Lamanai. So not being closer to town was not an issue for us. I did however love the walking around part, and if I had 2 weeks, it would have been nice to spend the other "in town" so that I could have developed a relationship with some of the locals that you come in contact with on a daily bases.
When (note that I'm not saying "if") we go back, I'm wanting to spend more time with a local family, want more of a hands on vacation. (have this mission bug nipping at me). Either on AC or on the main land. Made a couple of connections with folks who live in Punta Gorda and another couple who live right there on AC.
The hotel did have bikes that you could rent for $5US a day - almost did that.
So I guess that would be a yes as to would we stay there again, "IF we had 2 weeks" - one for R&R and the other for doing that thing that seems to make me tick and get the jucies flowing!
I sooooo wanna go back - now now now!!!!!
