Nestled along the picturesque Placencia Peninsula, this boutique resort offers an idyllic balance of privacy and convenient access to the vibrant culture of Placencia Village, making it the perfect destination for a dreamy honeymoon.

Location:

Chabil Mar stands out as the only Guest-Exclusive Resort on the Placencia Peninsula. This means you can revel in the seclusion and tranquility of a private retreat while still having the option to immerse yourselves in the daily life and vibrant culture of Placencia Village, just a leisurely stroll along the beach, a five-minute bike ride, kayak paddle, or paddleboard away.

Accommodations:

The resort boasts twenty-one sea-facing villas, each exuding Belizean charm and elegance. Ranging from 925 to 2000 square feet, these spacious villas offer the perfect setting for a romantic getaway. Personal verandas with hammocks invite you to relax and soak in the breathtaking views of the Caribbean Sea. The interiors are tastefully furnished in comfort and décor by “Belize Collaborative Designs,” featuring locally-grown hardwoods and vibrant artwork from local artisans, immersing you in the true essence of Belize.

Dining:

Chabil Mar takes pride in its culinary excellence. Chefs Savino and Ryan offer a delightful journey through Belizean cuisine. What sets the resort apart is its unique “Roaming Butler Service,” allowing you to savor your meals in various scenic locations throughout the resort—whether it’s on the beach, the private pier, poolside, or in the bar/lounge. Of course, you can also choose to have your favorite dishes and cocktails delivered right to your villa’s veranda. This personalized butler service ensures that every dining experience is a memorable one.

Activities:

Whether you’re seeking adventure or relaxation, Chabil Mar has you covered. You can explore the wonders of the Belize Barrier Reef through snorkeling and diving excursions or embark on a romantic kayak journey. If you prefer unwinding, the resort offers two infinity beach-side pools where you can bask in the sun and cool off with a swim. And when the day turns to evening, you can enjoy a private dinner on the pier under the stars.

Hospitality:

Chabil Mar’s commitment to guest satisfaction is truly exceptional. The on-site concierge, guest services team, and beach captain are dedicated to ensuring that every aspect of your honeymoon experience is perfect.

A wonderful combination of tranquility & adventure opportunities. Enjoy your meals or drinks on the dock, on your deck or wherever you like. The courtesy shuttle and friendly driver are an added bonus. Two pools, a bar and a clean beach make the stay perfect.
