Hotel at a Glance: Thatch Caye Resort
This charming private island resort off the coast of Belize offers 11 bungalows and cabanas spread across 11 lush beachfront acres. Spend your afternoons snorkeling along the colorful Belize Barrier Reef, swaying in a hammock in your island cabana, or saltwater fly-fishing, —the sparkling blue sea teems with permit, bonefish, and tarpon, known here as the “Grand Slam” of fishing.
- In the news: The resort recently made headlines when a former The Simpsons cartoonist left a doodle of Homer and Marge to thank the staff.
- Where you’ll stay: Over-the-water bungalows have private patios with hammocks, while Island Cabanas feature larger, private roof-top decks, as well as all accommodations include air conditioning.
- For the most space, choose a family villa, which boasts plenty of room for four people.
- Three daily meals—along with drinks—are included with your visit. Sample fruit, sausage, eggs, and traditional Belizean fried jacks in the morning and dig into a fish hoagie for lunch. Enjoy an afternoon snack of ceviche, nachos, or hummus. Dinner typically comes in the form of local fish with coconut rice, seafood paella, or roast pork tenderloin.
- Explore coral reefs: The resort staff can arrange scuba-diving and snorkeling excursions in the Belize Barrier Reef—just 3 miles away— South Water Caye, and Gladden’s Split.
- Complimentary rental: Kayaks, paddle boards, snorkel gear, fishing poles, and other nonmotorized equipment are included with this deal.
- The press says: Fodor’s writes, “Thatch Caye is all about you and your private island vacation, so you can head out for a day of fishing, diving, sea kayaking, or snorkeling and return to supremely comfortable accommodations.”
- Easy access: This Getaway includes round-trip boat transportation for two from Dangriga Airport (DGA) to the resort.
Thatch Caye, Belize: Islet near Barrier-Reef and Marine-Reserve Attractions
Thatch Caye Resort lies within the South Water Caye Marine Reserve, a protected area that encompasses a range of coastal and marine habitats such as littoral forests, seagrass beds, and mangroves. The island is near the Belize Barrier Reef, which Jacques Cousteau once referred to as “one of the four must-dive locations on this blue planet.”
The region is home to one of the several turtle species and other aquatic animals. You can easily explore the reserve by kayaking to nearby cays. One highlight is an underwater cave named Hell Hole, which features fully formed stalactites and stalagmites. Another is the bird sanctuary at Man-O-War Caye, an expansive nesting site for the brown booby and magnificent frigatebird.
