Cayo Espanto is an exclusive private island resort located off the coast of Belize. With just seven dwellings, the maximum capacity is only 18 guests, making it a perfect retreat for those seeking privacy and seclusion. Guests can arrive by helicopter or boat and enjoy the luxury of not having a traditional check-in process as there is no lobby on the island. The casas are beautifully decorated with cement floors, outdoor showers, hammocks, and most have their own private beach and infinity plunge pool.

Despite the intimate setting, guests can still expect five-star service with a personal houseman available at all times to attend to any needs. There is no communal restaurant on the island, so guests can enjoy customized meals served on their deck or in surprise locations around the island. The food is exceptional, with chef Richard Gillette blending local Belizean specialties, fresh seafood, local produce, and international flavors to create a memorable dining experience for guests.

For those seeking activities, there are plenty of options to choose from on and around the island. Guests can partake in kayaking, paddleboarding, snorkeling with nurse sharks, fly fishing, and scuba diving in the Great Blue Hole. The resort also offers a luxury yacht for hire for bespoke adventures. Day trips to Mayan ruins and underground river caves can also be arranged for those interested in exploring the history and natural beauty of Belize.

If guests want a break from the tranquility of the island, a water taxi can shuttle them to San Pedro where they can explore the shopping and nightlife. For those looking to relax, in-room massages and facials are available to help unwind and rejuvenate. Rates for a stay at Cayo Espanto start at $2,095 for two guests on an all-inclusive basis, making it a luxurious but secluded retreat for those looking to escape and recharge in a beautiful tropical setting.
