December 19, 2020 ctn_admin

Belize is ready to ring in 2021 with an array of new openings, offerings and celebrations that are grounded with visitors’ health and safety at the core, through the Tourism Gold Standard Certification program.

Properties are slated to open in the new year that offer pristine accommodations for visitors’ long-term investments, such as Palm Reef Resort and Grand Baymen Gardens. In 2021, Belize will have much to offer visitors, including an extensive list of Tourism Gold Standard certified industry partners, ample opportunities to purchase property to make Belize a second home, and elevated amenity and tour offerings at existing properties. This destination has put downtime to good use and continues to deliver unspoiled natural splendour paired with comfortable and safe tours and accommodations.

The Tourism Gold Standard Certification is a nine-point program set in place to ensure that hotels, restaurants, tour operators and relevant tourism businesses meet an enhanced level of health and safety standards to put travellers at ease while exploring the curiosities of Belize.

Below is a sampling of new properties, packages, and milestone anniversaries that Canadians can anticipate for next year.
