Then also take a look at San Pedro, Belize. Everything in walking distance
(as long as you stay at a hotel close in), good food to be found at
inexpensive prices (if you go to the right places), lots of grocery stores
and fresh veggie stands, and it's safe. That said, one caution, don't let
your little one be darting about on the streets. If you were to stay down
near Boca del Rio, you will very close to grocery, good inexpensive eateries
and a kiddies park on the beach.
Check Blue Tang Inn, The Tides, The Seven Seas and the Oasis.
