What to Do:  Many visitors enjoy bike riding around the island, excursions to Mayan ruins, and various helicopter tours, but diving and snorkeling can’t be missed. Experienced divers can go out to the Barrier Reef, and non-divers have a bevy of snorkeling spots to explore.
Where to Dine:  El Secreto Restaurant at the resort is considered the most beautiful and romantic setting on the island. Chefs combine international flavors with local Belizean cuisine for a delicious culinary experience.

Each treehouse offers a whimsical experience that will whisk you back to your childhood fantasies, but with much better amenities.

Where to Dine:  The resort prides itself on bringing the best taste experience possible. The chefs work closely with local growers to hand-pick the freshest and most innovative ingredients for an earthy and organic menu.

This eco-friendly east African resort, situated on the banks of the Ewaso Nyiro River, provides stunning views of the North Frontier Distract and Mt. Kenya.
