Air

Two Belizean airlines make roundtrips - Goldson/Punta Gorda International airport up to 5 times daily. The flight from Goldson International is a quick 1 hour flight.

The Sea Front Inn can book your in-country flights for you. We’ll make a reservation in your name and email the confirmation as an attachment. The cost of the tickets will be added to your bill to be paid at time of check-out.

Office staff will need to know: date and time you’ll land in Belize, names of individuals flying, and when your international flight departs for home.

“The twin engine Maya Island Airways plane slipped gently into the small strip at Punta Gorda as the sun dropped behind a bank of clouds. A three-minute taxi ride brought me to The Sea Front Inn, an attractive four-story beachfront hotel with a view of the Gulf of Honduras to the east. It is owned and operated by Larry Smith, a transplanted Floridian. “Been here almost 30 years,” Larry told me. “Never had any desire to go back.” Cold air waffled from my air-conditioned room on the second floor. A hot shower washed off the accumulated dust and sweat of the trip, and a cold bottle of Belikin Beer made the world a far better place.”
