Owned by the Coppola family, this Belize seafront stay features hand-carved Balinese furniture built by Indonesian artisans, including Roman's lagoon bungalow and Sofia's modernist beach house, complete with family photographs. Two infinity pools, a private beach, and very good Italian food. The seashell telephones you use to call reception are a genuine highlight.
