Private Islands

Ready to escape reality? Off the shore near Hopkins, Belize, in the South Water Caye Marine Reserve, our perfectly manicured private islands create the ultimate dream vacation. Completely ALL-INCLUSIVE, this couples retreat will make you never want to go home again. Sitting right between the main land and the Belize barrier reef, the Blue Ground Caye’s make up some of the most beautiful chain of islands in the world. The water reflects several shades of blue and green (where the name “Blue Ground” comes from) and is so clear, you can see starfish on the bottom from the boat! Less than a 20 minute boat ride from the mainland and only a couple nautical miles from the actual barrier reef, our islands create the ultimate “Surf and Turf” style vacation allowing you to hit the water everyday or catch one of our daily boats back to the mainland to enjoy Hopkins or venture inland on a Mayan adventure!

All of our private island rentals come with what we call, *Island Style All-Inclusive which includes 3 meals a day prepared at the onsite bar / restaurant as well as unlimited local alcoholic and nonalcoholic beverages. (Premium cocktails and non-local beverages will be charged separately). Upon booking, your concierge will reach out with some meal plan options as well as any additional requests for pre-stocking the island with groceries for your trip. Please be sure to notify us of any dietary restrictions for any members of your party!

Each day, all meals will be served in the main restaurant and guests are welcome to come by anytime during the listed meal times to grab their meal.  Meal options will be posted daily at the restaurant with requests and restrictions from your booking baked into each dining experience.

Have picky kids? Don’t worry! There will be easy-to-please options to include; pb&j’s, cheese burgers, hotdogs, and other simple meals that kids enjoy.

  • BREAKFAST: served daily from 7:00 am – 9:00 am
  • LUNCH: served daily from 11:00 am – 1:00 pm
  • HAPPY HOUR: 4:00 pm – 6:00 pm
  • DINNER: 6:00 pm – 8:00 pm

Please join us at the bar anytime before, between, or after meals for signature local cocktails and beers.

If you are enjoying an adventure away from the island and will not be on the island for a meal, DON’T WORRY! We ensure all meals are covered wherever you are. Some adventures away will include bag lunches and others will include beach barbecues or stops at a local restaurant or another island.

*Some add-on packages come with alternate catering/dining options so be sure to thoroughly read the details on each!

Don’t forget about our amazing adventure options! We have everything from snorkeling, island hopping, and fishing trips to Mayan cave tours, river tubing, and waterfall adventures; a little something for everyone. Any of our adventures can be added on at booking and don’t forget about our vacation packages that bundle up several adventures into a truly all-inclusive vacation.

About the Area:

Our private islands are located in the Blue Ground Cayes, part of the South Water Cayes Marine Reserve, in Central Belize. Less than a 20-minute boat ride from the mainland and only another couple of miles to the actual barrier reef, this area is known for its stunning natural beauty. Whether you spend your entire vacation lounging on the island or plan to hit some of our adventure options, you will not be disappointed. Take one of the provided kayaks out to explore the nearby mangrove islands or book an island-hopping tour to get out there and see everything Belize has to offer!

Payment Policies:

To reserve the dates of your stay, you must leave a deposit of 50% of the total at the time of booking. If the booking is canceled at least 120 days prior to the check-in date, a full refund, minus a non-refundable booking fee of $300, will be issued.  All payments will be retained if the booking is canceled within 90 days. After you make your initial deposit, you can make payments in any fashion as long as the trip is paid in full before check-in.

A standard 15-20% of your rental rate for all the staff is a fair tip.  The staff will divide it up amongst themselves.  Feel free to give an additional tip to a specific worker who stood out.

You do not need to exchange any money as USD is accepted nearly everywhere.  If you pay with USD, you may receive Belizian dollars back which you can use throughout your trip.

Hopkins Bay has several available ATM’s if you need to get additional cash as well.
