Tony & Anglea Marsico

Angela and Tony Marsico purchased Beaches and Dreams in 2005 and took over operation of the facility full time in 2007 after selling their fine dining restaurant in Alaska.  After gaining a reputation as one of the top dining establishments in Alaska, the Marsicos sold the 135 seat restaurant, Two Rivers Lodge, where Tony was chef and Angela the front of the house manager and pastry chef  for nearly 30 years.

They began looking for a small beachfront place where they could embrace their passions for cooking and gardening and give a personalized experience to small amounts of guests and Beaches and Dreams fit the bill perfectly. After extensive landscaping and major room renovations, the 5 room hotel and 30 seat  restaurant, The Barracuda Bar and Grill, stand out as a little jewel on a perfect stretch of Belizean Beach in the small village of Hopkins.

With no growth aspirations for Beaches and Dreams, your host and hostess will give you the personalized experience of all that Belize has to offer. Hopkins enjoys a central location to all the adventures that Belize can offer. Reef, River and Rainforest are only minutes away. Let Tony and Angela show you Belize as only a small, personalized resort can.

From Alaska to Belize?  You’d better Belize it!
