Belize

A Castaway Romance

Robinson Crusoe would be challenged to find a more exquisite retreat 

Straddling the line between the verdant Central American jungles and the white-washed sands of the Caribbean, Belize is one of those inconspicuous destinations that holds surprises at the turn of every corner.

You’ll often hear locals say with pride ‘You have to see it to Belize it!’ And while this might sound like an endearing cliche at first, it’s not an empty one at that.

As a young country with a population of merely 300,000 people, it can be hard to believe the enormous cultural diversity that thrives across this pint-sized nation.

A mixture of ancient Mayan heritage, colonial Kriol culture, and aboriginal Garifuna customs come together to forge Belize’s unique cultural landscape, one that’s filled with enticing flavors, lively sounds and a relaxed, easy-going attitude that permeates throughout.

Highlights

• Snorkeling
• Diving
• Picnic at Sea
• Spa & Wellness Treatments
• Al-Fresco Cinema
• Fishing excursions
• Creole cooking class
• Horseback riding
• Flight over the famous Blue Hole

Stay: Coral Caye Private Island

Sheltered behind the world-famous Belize Barrier Reef, Coral Caye is a completely private island that can be yours alone for a romantic, restorative or adventurous getaway.

Your dwelling will be a comfortable, rustic cottage that suits the untouched nature of your surroundings. A true sanctuary that is eco-conscious in every way and allows the soothing sounds of the Caribbean sea to lull you to sleep or beckon you to spend your afternoon snorkeling directly from the island.

The coastal decor consists of airy fabrics, open space, seaside-inspired colors, beachy accents, sturdy woods to withstand sandy feet and salty air, and tones to reflect the sea and sky.

Two dwellings and a great house are the only buildings on the island and can accommodate from two to ten guests.

COVID-related information & guidelines

Belize has achieved the Safe Travels Stamp, granted by the World Travel & Tourism Council (WTTC).

The Safe Travels Stamp, the first global safety and hygiene stamp, was awarded to Belize in late December 2020 in recognition of the country’s enhanced health and safety protocols.

All travelers must:

• Download the Belize Health App and input the required information no more than 72 hours prior to landing in Belize
• Bring along a negative Real-time Polymerase Chain Reaction (RT-PCR) Covid-19 test taken within 72 hours of arrival in Belize, OR Rapid Antigen, Sophia, SD Bisensor, ABBOT (Panbio) test results taken no more than 48 hours of arrival in Belize.
• If neither is presented, you can take a Covid-19 test upon arrival if you are unable to bring a negative test.

Naya Traveler organizes private, tailor-made trips to Belize starting at $700USD per person per day. Rates do not include international airfare.
