Private Island Getaways in Belize. What Happens Here, Stays Here.

By 1/18/2019 2 minutes


When Professor Daniel J. Solove was asked to write a blog post for the TeachPrivacy.com website, readers expected to find a list of 10 privacy justifications that relate to cybersecurity or website threats. In fact, Solove’s explanations about why privacy is critical relates to personal relationships as well.

Among the biggest of Solove’s revelations has to do with privacy leading to one’s ability to change and get second chances. We couldn’t agree more as we work with couples to help them rediscover their relationships.


Because we take this topic seriously, we frequently suggest private island getaways in Belize as the ideal way to get that second chance at love. And you thought all we did at Belizing.com was uphold our reputation for being the #1 travel marketplace in Belize! We also help relationships blossom.

The only place to find real privacy is on a private island

Home to the world's second-longest barrier reef, the Caribbean Sea off the Belize coast is lavished with so many small islands, cayes and atolls, even geographers argue about their number. Each of these land masses are unique. One may be an epicenter for birdwatchers, while another is the ideal jumping off point for fishing, diving or beachcombing.


Among this array of islets are privately - owned sanctuaries for people seeking respites from all humanity - except the people they love. Entrepreneurs recognizing the importance of personal privacy to combat stress are establishing little villages amid blue Caribbean waters. Each offers couples intimate stays that mix nature and solitude with enough adventure to satisfy all appetites.

Islands in the sun. Which has your name on it?

At Belizing.com, we are often asked for private island getaway recommendations and it’s not always easy to pick just one. Some guests love the Silk Cayes while others have ecological reasons for spending time on Laughing Bird or Tobacco Cayes.


We recommend private destinations like Placencia's Ranguana Caye. Rustic lodgings plus the use of snorkel gear, paddle boards and kayak are all included for one affordable price because we negotiate rates to fit all budgets.

Another private island we suggest is Lark Caye where solitude is balanced with snorkeling and day trips in addition to plenty of beach and cabana time. This private, family-owned island is a five minute boat ride from Placencia and beloved by folks in search of relaxation.

What can we do for you?

We take immense pride in being the #1 travel marketplace in Belize, and since we have access to the best private islands off Belize, there’s not an arrangement we can’t handle when weary travelers put their tours, transfers and activities into our hands.


At Belizing.com, we understand why Belize visitors choose our nation over our neighbors and we are committed to going the extra mile to make sure that every detail of the arrangements we make is perfect. If a private island getaway is on your radar, let us show you how we can make your wish come true at a rate so competitive, you start relaxing before you arrive.

Silk Cayes are part of a marine reserve established to protect the outer reef and cayes and have an abundance of aquatic life, fish stocks, coral reef biodiversity, and healthy corals.
A typical day of snorkeling includes a briefing by the park rangers before your licensed snorkel guide leads you into the water to take you on a tour of the abundant and varied coral and to meet the local residents. If you have not snorkeled before, no problem. Our guides are happy to show you the ins and outs of snorkeling and show you the coral and those who inhabit it. Critters include spotted drums, huge lobsters, cleaner shrimp, arrow crabs, snapper, barracuda, and more varieties of reef fish than you can count.
Around mid-day, you’ll enjoy an authentic Belize-style picnic lunch. Often divers go out on the same boat and they join the snorkelers for lunch. This makes Silk Cayes a great destination for families or couples when some are divers and some are snorkelers.
After lunch, head back into the water to explore the coral and meet more of the denizens who make Silk Cayes their home.
But the best is still to come! After the second snorkel expedition and the divers return to the caye, we all head to a spot just inside the barrier reef where local fishermen clean their catch and where you are almost certain to have the opportunity to snorkel with huge turtles, rays, and sharks. Here is your chance for a great nose-to-nose photo with a very large turtle.
