If you like to rough it a bit,

there's a place called Kitty's Resort in Placencia, Belize. I stayed there and it's a wonderful, quiet beach. However, for reef snorkeling you either have to do a boat excursion to the reef (45 minutes of bumpy boat ride), OR...they have a "private island" you can stay at with just a rustic cabin and a caretaker to provide food. I'm pretty sure that this island has snorkeling from the beach. If you decide to look into it, make sure you ask if the beach has sand fleas. Some of the beaches in that neck of the woods have them.
The water sure is beautiful, there.
