Hello everyone,


would like to stay at atleast three different areas to get the lay of the land any suggestions which three areas

ultimately we would like to be by other expats - not so much in rustic areas

   My suggestions..... Caye Caulker, San Ignacio and Punta Gorda. Caye Caulker is a true island paradise and really where I wanted to live, just never could swing the right land deal. And being an island things are more expensive there. San Ignacio is a total gem, jungle environment but great shops and places to eat, right on the Guatemala border. Punta Gorda, where I ended up buying property, is definitely more of a backwater place but has the advantage of lower prices due to that. If you are looking to buy land with an eye towards increasing value there are a variety of types available. I bought a couple of acres of jungle land just outside of town at a very nice price
