Mona Lisa:

We stayed at Portofino; rented a gas cart in town and partied till midnight, then took the road North on the cart. We had never even seen the 'road' till then - it was an adventure in the dark! Fun. It will take about 45 min. from the cut if the road is muddy. We had no problem and Portofino has a little area for you to park your cart in the back. By the way, if you get sunburned and ask for aloe vera, they don't know what it is. It's growing in the raised flower bed in front of #2!!!!!!! And you can go FAR up North in the cart. We drove until there was no more path. Was a great adventure that was filled with shoes, shoes, and more shoes. You will see what I mean.

Hi Malibu,

Actually, we're staying at the Playa Blanca Island Villa which is sandwiched between Portofino and Mata Chica... not sure whether we'll need a cart considering we have a boat avail to us anytime for daylight hours, but will need some form of transport after dark.

I was just curious how far of a drive it was in a cart, and if we'd really need one. It does sound like an adventure! We just might opt for water taxi'ing w/ the distance involved.

Curious, did you rent a cart for your entire stay at Portofino??

Thanks,

Lisa

I frown on Golf Courses!

...all this frowning?? "Live the Dream!!"

WE drove al the way to Costa Maya Reef Resort.
Quite a trip. Yes we drove on the beach since that was the only way to proceed. Also had to "drive" through a yard I guess but we were determined to make to CMR. Next time we'll take the water taxi. Wife was eaten up on the way back by bugs. Of course we weren't smart enough to take bug spray.
I guess to redo this adventure I'd frown on cart too. Gas or battery!!

I frown on golf courses in Belize.

golf courses should be everywhere....

i do frown on weed eating
