You have little to no chance of getting any side jobs to pay for your dream vacation in Belize. Your entry 30 day visa to Belize states you CANNOT take any employment in Belize as a tourist. Anyone employing you would be breaking the law and could result in harsh fines or even expution (if law breaker an expat) to the employer and definate expulsion and a heavy fine (OR jail time if you can't pay) for the illegal employee.
If you have not got enough money to pay for a few months in Belize you should probably look elsewhere. Could possibly get such work in the tourist areas in Mexico.

If you are a Handy man - apartment can be traded for doing some work around the place - waterfront on beautiful waterway that connects to the sea - Progresso Lagoon, Corozal District

Please note this is an open forum so possibly best not to openly offer a position that would break the laws of Belize. The tourist visa is quite specific no work paid or unpaid is allowed. Even organized volunteers for charities in Belize have to have a form of work permit.
