With its massive throngs of tourists, flagging infrastructure, and cheap tourist traps, it’s easy to discount a vacation to the Caribbean as overrated. And while that’s definitely true of some of the most popular destinations, there’s a reason why the Caribbean became so popular in the first place. From its consistently warm weather to its beautiful beaches to the variety of marine life, much of the Caribbean still resembles the platonic ideal of a tropical paradise. Belize, and the private island resort of Ray Caye in particular — still represents this idealistic image of the perfect Caribbean vacation. Here’s why.
Nature Unleashed and Unspoiled
The entire Caribbean Sea is notable for its gentle winds and gorgeous scenery, but there’s no part of the Caribbean more beautiful and diverse than the Belize Barrier Reef. It’s the barrier reef that’s responsible for the thriving variety of seafood you can find in Belizean markets and restaurants, but it’s also one of the main draws for local explorers and adventurous tourists. From scuba diving to snorkeling to fishing, there are plenty of activities out on the open waters — and the people of Belize are especially conscientious about ecological preservation. Both the Belize Barrier Reef and the coastal town of Placencia are only a short boat ride from Ray Caye.
A Getaway Both Exclusive and Secluded
There are over 400 islands off the coast of Belize, and they can range in size from the crowded 25-mile long tourist island of Ambergris Caye to small and desolate rocks. Ray Caye finds the perfect in-between size. Covering a manageable 7.4 acres, it’s small enough to feel exclusive while being large enough to provide you and the other guests with the amenities and resources that you want. Ray Caye is home to only 50 people when at maximum capacity, but it offers a full mile of gorgeous beachfront. And since you have access to all of the water toys, it’s yours to explore at your own pace.
Five Star Service Across the Board
Just because Ray Caye is the perfect hideaway doesn’t mean that you’ll be lacking in the essentials. Because this island is still big enough and accessible enough to give you access to a variety of amenities. Pirate Reef Dive Shop can provide you with all the essentials to explore the waters as well as the training you need, or you can enjoy dinner and a drink at Lionfish Bar and Grill or get pampered at the on-site spa.
