Private Islands
Private Islands
Your own Caribbean sanctuary
Belize is home to some of the Caribbean's most exclusive private island retreats. From the legendary Cayo Espanto — where Leonardo DiCaprio has been spotted unwinding — to the intimate Gladden Private Island, these sanctuaries offer the ultimate expression of seclusion. Surrounded by the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea and the world's second-largest barrier reef, each island promises an experience that transcends ordinary luxury. Wake to the sound of gentle waves, dine on freshly caught lobster prepared by your private chef, and end each evening watching the sun dissolve into the horizon from your overwater deck.
