Travel writer Sammi Caramela has declared 2025 the year she dedicates to solo travel, “and I’m not alone,” she enthuses, especially after many of her concerns were assuaged by fellow-writer Rebecca Ann Hughes in her Forbes article articulating a trend that’s expected to stay hot.
Solos seeking adventure are especially in luck. Gen Z and Millennial travelers, enamored with experiential getaways, are projected to grow by an impressive 15.2% annually until 2032 as more and more people grow comfortable with the idea of pushing themselves out of their comfort zones while traveling alone.
What does it take to overcome solo travel reticence? Both writers say that developing ice-breaking tools to start conversations with new people is important, understanding that you may feel vulnerable, and embracing the ups and downs solo travel brings are keys to success. It’s especially important to feel safe during your getaway so you can relax and have fun, and solo travelers agree that in this respect, Belize doesn’t disappoint.
The resort you choose makes all the difference
Solo travelers love sharing their experiences when they’ve chosen Laru Beya Resort as their home base during their sojourns because everything about this property is designed for safety. Laru Beya is an upscale, all-inclusive resort located on the Placencia Peninsula, considered an especially low-risk area. The resort’s long-term staff cares greatly about visitor safety, and they are always on the lookout for anything that may make a guest feel uncomfortable.
What can you do to make sure you stay safe? Trust Laru Beya’s management to check out guides and locations associated with the resort’s long list of tour options. And always take the same precautions as you would back home when going out at night—like not wearing pricey jewelry and making sure that you stick with your group during itinerary stops. “I felt completely safe in Belize,” one solo traveler told TripAdvisor. “Much [safer] than I do when in downtown San Diego!”
Keep your budget safe, too, solo traveler
Savvy tourists know that there’s more than one way to ruin a vacation: Throwing caution to the wind when out and about and not being mindful of scams that can ruin the best holiday in record time are both good examples.

Laru Beya specials can help you stick to your travel budget, which is why you’ll find fabulous deals that are explained in detail here.
