The El Secreto boutique resort in Belize is set to officially open Oct. 1, the company has announced.

The property on Belize’s Ambergris Caye is 11 miles north of San Pedro Town. It consists of 13 freestanding thatched-roof villas on the hotel’s private beachfront enclave.

The El Secreto project is the brainchild of Mexico City-based developers Abraham Roffe and Abraham Saade.

San Pedro is the largest town on Ambergris Caye, which is itself the largest of Belize’s cayes.
