Placencia Village

Hello All,
At this time we have been here on the Peninsula for 6 weeks this visit. Being here in this small village you easily get to know it's locals, business owners and other travelers loving Belize.
Through locals we have found a 2 br/1ba apartment for $US500 a month plus BTB tax of 9%. It's in the center of town surrounded by all the restaurants, taco stands and grocery stores. It's nothing fancy, very basic. Like many local housing there is only hot water in the shower which is fine for us (but not for everyone! ). The apartments sit on the lagoon with a 3 minute walk to the Caribbean Sea.
We have discovered many great spots to swim, eat, have a drink and chat with locals and expats alike. Just some of the places are;
The Tipsy Tuna, Barefoot Bar, Sailfish Resort, Cozy Corner, The Pickled Parrot and Tutti Fruit Gelato. Attached are some photos.
You can also see more information on these places on Google Maps and search Mike Brakefield as I am now listed as a Local Guide. More to come and thanks for reading !
