St.-Georges-Caye-Resort-Belize

1. Instagramable Everywhere

The most incredible sky-scape sunsets. Vibrant, peaceful, and sure to make you pause to reflect on natures power and prana. This unique, secluded island paradise boast authentic tropical treasures, of meticulously kept gardens, panoramic views of the Caribbean, with the sea on both sides of the resort, and three types of cabanas to suit any lodging bucket-list.  Wake to, crystal-clear, teal-blue waters, palm trees swaying in the gentle breeze, and a sense that time stands still. 

This is what paradise looks like. And it's all here at St. George's Caye Resort. Every moment here is a photo-op waiting to happen… Your memories captured forever.

2. Unleash Your Inter Explorer

From kayaking through crystal-clear waters to paddleboarding along the coastline, there's something for everyone. Fancy a bit more speed? Try Hobie Cat sailing or take an excursion to find our guide's favorite snorkel spot! Whether you're a novice or a pro, our trained guides are ready to assist.

Ready for a deep-sea exploration? Snorkel or scuba dive with vibrant marine life. Discover hidden treasures beneath the surface. Each dive is a new adventure.

St. George's Caye has been a dive destination for decades, offering some of the best SCUBA diving in Belize from its secluded location mere minutes from the barrier reef. With no other dive resorts in the area, the nearby dive sites are pristine, healthy, and almost always free of other divers. The coral reef system, a UNESCO World Heritage Site, is home to more than 500 species of fish, as well as sea turtles, dolphins, spotted eagle rays, and numerous invertebrates. Our island's proximity to the reef means you can dive in the morning, return for lunch, and dive again in the afternoon – combining the benefits of a live-aboard dive trip with the comforts and service of a private island resort.

3. Discover the soul of Belize through its artisans

Local artisans here aren't just creators. They're storytellers, sharing tales of our vibrant culture through their crafts. From handwoven baskets to intricate wood carvings, each piece is a masterpiece that captures the essence of this tropical paradise.

Experience Belize's bright, vibrant colors, and authenticity during the San Pedro Slam excursion.

Travel by boat across the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea, going past nearby Caye Chapel and Caye Caulker, to San Pedro on Ambergris Caye. Spend the morning on a guided snorkeling and/or diving adventure at two popular sites, Hol Chan Marine Reserve and Shark Ray Alley. (For guests who do not want to snorkel or dive, you have the full day to explore Ambergris Caye.) Then we venture back to San Pedro for lunch at the restaurant of your choice (we can provide recommendations) and an afternoon of shopping and visiting galleries, gift shops, and beach bars/restaurants, before returning to St. George's with plenty of time to unwind and freshen up before dinner.

4. Culinary delights await

Get ready to tantalize your taste buds like never before. At our resort, every meal is an experience. From breakfast to dinner, our chefs craft dishes that are not just meals, but memories. Imagine dining under the stars with the sea breeze gently caressing your face. Or savoring a gourmet breakfast while watching the sunrise paint the horizon. Every bite, every sip, is designed to amaze. 

Guests at St. George's enjoy a farm-to-table experience with everything from traditional Belizean, Caribbean, and Latin cuisine to European and American favorites. The meal plan includes made-to-order breakfast each morning and expertly selected set menus for lunch and dinner daily.

Most of the fresh fruits, vegetables, and meats we serve are grown in the chef's village and brought out by boat several times a week (except for the coconuts which grow right on the caye!). Whenever possible we purchase fresh seafood directly from the local fisherman as their boats pass by our island.

One of the best parts about meals at St. George's is all the guests gathering on the covered dining porch to eat together. Folks love getting to know each other and sharing stories of their travel adventures. Some guests are a bit hesitant at first, but then quickly realize how wonderful it is to make friends from all over the world. For guests on their honeymoon or a romantic getaway, seating at a private table is always available.
