Why It Matters
The only member of Preferred Hotels & Resorts LVX Collection in Belize. Listed in the Michelin Guide. A 5-star PADI dive shop is on property with direct access to the world's second-largest barrier reef. Complimentary kayaks, paddleboards, Hobie Cats, bicycles, and fishing rods are included with every stay. Every guest gets a welcome massage on arrival.
Las Terrazas is a 38-unit boutique resort sitting on one of the largest private white-sand beaches on Ambergris Caye — 3.5 miles north of San Pedro, far enough from town to feel genuinely secluded. Every unit is a full apartment-style residence with a proper kitchen, washer/dryer, and at least two bathrooms. The 70-foot infinity pool is the social center; the Belize Barrier Reef is a short boat ride out the front dock.
Where You'll Stay
6 room types available
Beach Front Villa
From USD624 / nightThe top of the range. Three bedrooms directly on the beach with a dedicated butler. King master, queen second bedroom, two singles in the third room — the kind of layout that actually works for a mixed family group. Waves from the balcony. The butler will meet you at the dock, arrange your golf cart, book your excursions, and organize the chef to cook your fishing catch on the beach.
King master, Queen second bedroom, Two singles in third
Deluxe Suite
From USD176 / nightThe entry-level option, and it's still solidly comfortable. A studio layout at 377 sq ft with a king bed, kitchenette, and direct access to the infinity pool. Good for couples who plan to spend most of their time outside the room anyway.
KingGarden View Villa
From USD260 / nightOne, two, or three-bedroom layouts that look out over the infinity pool and tropical gardens. Handcrafted Belizean furnishings, travertine floors, granite countertops, and a full kitchen with stainless-steel appliances. Strong value for families or groups who want pool proximity over beachfront.
King and Queen configurations
Luxury Lagoon Villa
From USD384 / nightThree-bedroom villa on the west-facing lagoon side. Sunsets from the open-air terrace are the main event here — the lagoon turns gold and then pink. Steps from the pool. Not beachfront, but the trade-off is some of the best evening light on the property.
King master, Queen and Twin secondary bedrooms
Penthouse
From USD516 / nightThree floors, two or three bedrooms, and a private plunge pool on the balcony. Third-floor perch with good views. Note: no elevator. A couple of guests have flagged that the stairs can be a factor, and some furniture shows wear. The plunge pool and views make up for a lot.
King master and Queen or Twin secondaryTerrazas Luxury Villa
From USD544 / nightTwo-story townhome overlooking the infinity pool, steps from O Restaurant. The rooftop has an outdoor dining area and a private jacuzzi. Master suite upstairs with king bed and en suite bathroom with separate soaking tub and shower. Two additional bedrooms on other floors. Popular for groups and families who want a social centerpiece.

On Property
How you'll actually spend your days.
No cameras allowed past the final chamber. Maya artifacts undisturbed for over 1,000 years. This is the cave Belize protects above all others. Considered one of the best adventure experiences in the country.
Two iconic mainland Belize experiences in one day: underground rivers through ancient caves and a Mayan ruin complex that rises above the jungle canopy.
An hour up the New River spotting crocodiles and howler monkeys, then three Mayan temples that the jungle nearly swallowed. The river journey is half the experience.
Nine caves, seven miles, one kayak. Belize's longest underground river adventure.
Half a mile offshore. 500 species of fish. The Belize Barrier Reef is the main reason certified divers book this resort. Two-tank dive run by the on-site 5-star PADI dive shop.
A UNESCO World Heritage sinkhole dive with a beach lunch on a remote island. The full-day adventure that defines Belize diving.
Three half-days: starts with pool sessions at the resort, finishes with open-water dives on the Belize Barrier Reef. Certified for life.
Bicycles available complimentary from the front desk for exploring the resort and surrounding area.
Kayaks (including glass-bottomed), paddleboards, Hobie Cat sailboats, aqua bikes, and fishing rods — all free for guests. Walk to the dock and take your pick. Life jackets available at the front desk.
All the drama of the Blue Hole from the surface — coral rim, reef walls, and a remote island beach — no dive certification required.
Snorkel with nurse sharks and stingrays in Belize's most famous marine reserve, just offshore from the resort. The most-booked excursion for first-timers.
The calmest snorkel on the island in protected waist-to-chest-deep water. Good for families with younger kids.
On-site kids programming including beach games, Little Chefs cooking program at O Restaurant, foosball, and movie nights. Babysitters available on call for parents.
Tiki torches in the sand, a table for two or twenty, chef-prepared bespoke multi-course menu. Available for couples up to large groups of 100. Perennially cited as a trip highlight.
Reef and deep-sea fishing excursions arranged through the concierge. The kitchen will prepare your catch — multiple ways — if you bring it back.
