The Perfect San Pedro Stroll: From Sunset Sips to Fine Dining
The perfect start to a Front Street stroll: A curated cheese and charcuterie board paired with a glass of crisp wine, just a three-minute walk from The Phoenix.
There is a specific magic to San Pedro as the sun begins to dip. The air cools, the Front Street lights begin to twinkle, and the island’s energy shifts from adventure to relaxation. One of the greatest luxuries of staying at The Phoenix is that you are at the starting line of the town's most sophisticated evening—and you don't need a single golf cart key to experience it.

Stop 1: Wine de Vine (The Kickoff) Start your evening just a 3-minute stroll from your door at Wine de Vine. Known as the island’s premier boutique for fine wines and imported cheeses, it’s the perfect spot for a pre-dinner "provisions" run or a glass of crisp Rosé.
With hundreds of imported labels from around the globe, Wine de Vine is your local headquarters for sunset provisions or that perfect bottle for your Red Ginger dinner.
Stop 2: The Art Walk As you head back toward the resort, take the "scenic route" past the local galleries on Front Street. This is where the "Walkable Luxury" truly shines. You aren't rushing through traffic; you're stopping to admire the new Jaguar mural or popping into a boutique to find a hand-carved Belizean gift.
Stop 3: Red Ginger (The Main Event) Finish your stroll at Red Ginger. Whether you choose the garden patio or the cool, air-conditioned dining room, you’re exactly 0 minutes from home. Monday nights are for fresh seafood, but if you’re planning ahead, remember that Wednesday and Saturday are the legendary 50% Off Wine Bottle nights.
The Walk Home: The best part? When the last bite of dessert is gone, your "commute" is a thirty-second walk through the gardens back to your suite.
