This is one of the best places to stay if you want to enjoy a lot of wild life, plant life and human comforts. There is so much to explore that leaving the resort would not be necessary for days and days. I also found the owners (daughters of Ken) have taken over and offer the high quality service first started by their father. He would be proud.
Bacalar region near the border ca985 took control of the town of Tiper. The soldiers were hoping to use the town as a base to subdue the Maya in Pet n. But the Maya living on the lagoon rebelled and killed the Spanish invaders and started a huge rebellion in Belize against the Spanish.
Alongside these settlers and their slaves were privateers, who loved the sheltered coves and the maze of reefs and cayes off the Belize coast. From their bases here, they could attack the Spanish shipping lanes with near impunity.
Bluefield Lodge, 6 Bluefield,, bluefield@btl.net, 522-2742, $$, comes highly recommended by more than one traveler I met. The lodge s owner, Louise Belisle, is a pleasant lady who runs a tight ship. Her rooms are clean and most have private bathrooms with hot water. Some rooms have TVs. There is also a nice balcony on which to sit. You should book ahead of time as this place is always full. Check at the up-to-date bulletin ca985 board near the front desk for news and travel contacts.
