The Turtle Inn in Belize

The Turtle Inn welcomes guests to powder-soft sands in Belize

Top 10 Central American Beach Escapes

Placencia, Belize

Situated on the slender Placencia Peninsula that juts off Belize's southern coast, Francis Ford Coppola's Turtle Inn is anything but Hollywood glam (in a good way). Bungalows outfitted with handsome Balinese furnishings and private pools are tinged with rustic details like outdoor showers; entertainment comes in the form of complimentary bikes, kayaks, and paddleboats; a Thai massage at the spa; or simple wooden tables for card games on the beach. The restaurant Mare skews Italian with brick-oven pizza and a Coppola-heavy wine list. Fly direct to Belize City from Miami, Houston, or Dallas in 2 hours; from there, it's a 40-minute trip on a charter plane. From $285/night, includes breakfast; blancaneaux.com
