What it’s good at
What they say
Michelin Selected
Michelin
‘Rooms’ isn’t the right word, either — at Las Terrazas, they’re more like luxury apartments, with one to three bedrooms each, all outfitted in casually elegant Belizean-produced furnishings.
Tucked away
A place apart: the property is the destination.
North of San Pedro on Ambergris Caye, fronting the Caribbean Sea beside the lagoon.

The rooms
Townhomes come furnished in local Belizean hardwoods with full kitchens. Select penthouses add private plunge pools on their balconies.
The pool
Bring a swimsuit.
The 70-foot saltwater infinity lap pool stretches through the central courtyard, lined with shaded cabanas and palms.
The spa
Treatment rooms look directly toward the ocean, where guests receive hot stone massages and Caribbean sea wraps.
At the table
O Restaurant cooks your daily catch to order, and the rooftop lounge pours sunset cocktails over the lagoon.

Our shorthand
How we rate hotels.

The eight vibes
Design
Built around a vision. Even the door handles have a designer.
Luxe
Cared for at every turn. The bath is drawn before you ask.
Local
It could only be here. You wake up knowing where you are.
Social
Where the city goes out. The bar is full and the night is young.
Heritage
A building with a story. Once a palace, a monastery, a station.
Wellness
You leave feeling new. Rest, sweat, soak and sleep like a stone.
Classic
The city grew up with it. Same rituals, same regulars, same bar.
Resort
A world of its own. Something to do from breakfast to nightcap.
The scene
Lively
Where things happen: restaurants, shops, people.
Central
Well-located: walkable to some things, a short ride to more.
Quiet
Away from the crowds. Getting around takes intention.
Secluded
A place apart: the property is the destination.
