Belize has long been on my family’s travel radar for its unique blend of natural beauty, rich culture, and surprising proximity to our home near Miami — just a quick 2-hour flight away.
After spending quality time with my family at the resort in May 2025, here are the 7 things we loved most about Alaia Belize that make it a standout choice for a family vacation.
There were multiple bedrooms, a big open living and dining space, and a full kitchen with high-end appliances, which is incredibly convenient when traveling with kids.
Delicious On-Site Dining With Kid-Friendly Options
We really appreciated how well the dining options worked for our whole family at Alaia Belize, not just in terms of variety but also in how kid-friendly they were without sacrificing quality.
Easy Access to World-Class Snorkeling, Marine Life, and Day Trips
Alaia Belize is only 15 minutes by boat from the Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark Ray Alley, 2 of the region’s most iconic snorkeling and diving sites.
We didn’t fully realize until we got to Alaia Belize just how many of the accommodations, depending on the room type, include kitchenettes or full kitchens.
