Alma del Rio, the 'soul of the river', is named after our little Alma Sophia, who was born here in Belize and is raised among it's diverse nature and culture. We've been living in Belize for over 12 years. In the first 2, we managed a luxury island resort and presently own a business introducing and distributing renewable energy products. We bring into Alma del Rio all we know and believe in - professional hospitality and environmental awareness. We will be more than happy to help you get around, visit the best destinations and plan your trip according to your preferences and budget. We know the hospitality industry in Belize well, and will be glad to share our knowledge with you. Have a wonderful day! Tom, Hadas & Alma
