The El Secreto resort in Belize has officially opened.

The resort, which is located 11 miles from San Pedro Town on Ambergris Caye, is accessed by a private 30-minute boat ride from San Pedro Town, the largest town on Ambergris Caye.

The property has 13 thatched-roof stand-alone villas; three of the villas are steps from the ocean; another four feature garden views, and five lake villas surround the property’s salt-water lake.

Each of the villas features a king-size bed, a marble bathroom, an LCD flat-screen television and a private outdoor jacuzzi, among other amenities.

El Secreto also has an IKAL Spa Villa featuring a variety of treatments and its own fresh water pool.

The project comes from Mexico City-based developers Abraham Roffe and Abraham Saade.
