Bride, Groom and Travel Kudos:
July 3, 2010: Hey PJ. Just wanted to thank you again for everything. The honeymoon to Belize was perfect. Portofino was such a great resort, and Belize is such a beautiful country. Thanks for all the planning and thought you put into this. This was the first vacation we've taken that far exceeded our expectations. Thanks again, Brad Y.

Amazing.....truly spectacular, PJ,
I give this trip ten thumbs up, five high-fives, kudos...and anything else that describes...WE LOVED IT! This trip to Belize was an amazing adventure on all levels. Mind you, we didn't even have great weather and we still loved it. Flights: they were great. 6AM was tough...but we did it. Connections were smooth in both directions. Houston is a HUGE airport.
Accommodations: Almond Beach was very comfortable, clean, so friendly! I cannot stop saying how nice everyone was...from the front desk to the guys that raked the leaves on the beach. Our room was great...just the right size. I met Pat...she was so nice to find me and tell me that you were looking out for us...thanks PJ! The food was good...breakfast and lunch were the best. Unfortunately, we didn't get to enjoy the water too much...we did get one good day...another half. But I liked the fact that we could just take a kayak out, get some snorkel gear...even sail...right off of our beach without hassle or extra cost. All of the guests there were just as nice....alot of Canadians...eh? Spa was okay...four of us had spa treatments...only because the weather was cold. Our activities were good...hiking the waterfall was fun, kayaking was a good choice for a windy colder day. Guides were always, always kind and accommodating!
We LOVED Hopkins....celebrated New Years with all the towns people...what a night! Our transport from beach to jungle was so enjoyable...we had such a nice man take good care of us...and the zip lines were fun...especially since we were the last tourists to go through them...no one else was around!
Caves Branch: What a place! LOVED our treehouse. It was so unusual. Beautiful view, great beds, showers....it was all great. Kids loved it too. Food was okay...not the best, but we never complained because we were always soooo hungry! The activities were amazing...the best part of the whole trip! The Black Hole drop was a great experience...Sydney (12 yrs old) rocked...and the rest of my clan tried to keep up with her. We choose the Waterfall hike instead of tubing...it was raining...and the last thing we wanted to do was be outside in the rain more. The cave waterfall hike was the best experience...by far! It was just the five of us and two guides. It rained all night and all day...so being in the cave was perfect. Can't describe how spectacular the experience was....just know that it is etched in my kids heads.
I will definitely want to go back to Belize again...if only to experience the snorkeling...(diving even) and going to visit the Mayan ruins. But next time, I would love to bring a man that I can enjoy it with....I love my kids...but.....
So....thanks again...from the bottom of my heart for taking the time and effort to make our vacation so enjoyed and memorable! I can't wait to plan the next one! Please keep me in mind for ANY type of adventure....I am addicted to thrills! You're the best, PJ!
Love from all of us, Pam, Kali, Tyler, Blake and Sydney Pee.S. I will send photos later (Belize Family Adventure)
