EXTRA PERKS & MORE DETAILS Complimentary Wi-Fi, cable TV, beach chairs, and a private washer/dryer. There is a high powered air-conditioning window unit in the living area, dining area, and each bedroom. Unassigned parking for one car. This unit is located on the ground floor. LOCATION Los Porticos is private enough to feel worlds away, yet only a mile from the village and a 5-minute cab ride from the Placencia Airport. Refreshingly un-touristy, the small village of Placencia presents open-air restaurants with tasty seafood and international cuisine. Rent bikes, kayaks, or golf carts to get around. Visit Mayan archaeological sites or hire local guides for a diving, sailing, or jungle adventure. English is understood throughout the village. Note that English is the official language of the country of Belize. Most Belizeans speak English in addition to other languages such as Belizean Kriole, Spanish, Garifuna and others. Home to Earth's second-largest Barrier Reef, Belize is dotted with tiny islands called Cayes -- known the world over for their unmatched diving and snorkeling opportunities. Water temperatures in the area hold steady between 79-84 degrees.
