A Private Island in Belize for $550,000
Demand for Caribbean private-island real estate is booming — as more people look to escape crowded cities and find seclusion in the tropics.
But not every private island comes with a large price tag.
That brings us to a new listing in Belize — this four-acre island is straight out of Robinson Crusoe.
Set close to the village of Hopkins in the Stann Creek District in Belize, it’s the essence of the castaway fantasy.
There’s a one-bedroom cabin-style house; a separate cabin on the beach; a jetty for your boat and a stretch of white-sand beach.
“It’s also totally private, so it’s the perfect escape from all social interaction,” says realtor Franck Robert. “The seller spent years shaping the island up, creating a walkway, installing electrics and adding water tanks.”
Robert said the four-acre site would be perfect for either a self-sustaining resort or an eco-retreat.
“This island has so much potential and for the right person it could be a wonderful escape and a great investment opportunity,” he said.
Some say social distancing is the new luxury, and that’s exactly what you get here, right off the coast of one of the hottest destinations in the wider Caribbean region.
