Description

Your own private custom, high-end island! Only your group and the onsite staff, who have separate detached housing, will be on the island during your stay. This uniquely designed island includes 5 private suites with their own large open air thatch roof bathrooms, specifically laid out to take advantage of the amazing sea, mountain views and the cool trade winds.

Little Harvest Caye is a 1.5 acre private resort island that is located just 3/4 of a mile from the center of Placencia Village which is just a short 5 minute boat ride all in protected smooth waters. The Little Harvest Caye boat stays out on the island along with its captain and is available to take you back and fourth from Placencia based on your schedule. The island is uniquely situated to have panoramic views in all directions of the Maya Mountains, open ocean and Placencia Village.

Little Harvest Caye is a certified Gold Standard Property by the Belize Tourism Board and managed by a highly respected company that manages four exclusive private island and numerous luxury waterfront villas in Placencia.

Little Harvest Caye offers an experience like no other in Belize. During your stay at Little Harvest Caye you have a chef to prepare all your meals (cost of food not included), daily housekeeping along with a boat and captain at your disposal to go any time for dinner, bar hopping, shopping, or taking in the many other sites and attractions of Placencia Village.

Guests of Little Harvest Caye truly have the best of both worlds; the privacy, exclusivity and uniqueness of being on a private island, all the comforts of home (a/c in all bedrooms, wifi, cable tv etc.) and the convenience and ability to take the Little Harvest Caye private boat from the island to the village anytime to enjoy all that Placencia has to offer.

Some resorts talk about being green, Little Harvest Caye is as green as any property can be. Little Harvest Caye is powered by a state of the art 45,000 watt solar system, with a room full of batteries to power the island when the sun is not out making it truly off-grid. The island does have a back-up generator to provide power to the island during extended periods of rain or heavy clouds; its use is not required under normal circumstances and with reasonable use of the air conditioners in each of the bedrooms. A very thoughtful effort went into the building design and details including the latest in LED technology, all butane cooking, water heating and even refrigeration. Efficient DC technology ceiling fans and the extremely efficient and quiet in room solar mini split AC systems truly make it where Little Harvest Caye can satisfy 100% of its electric needs from its solar system.

Placencia itself also is an ideal location to explore all Belize has to offer. In Placencia you have access to both land and sea tours and excursions, most less than 1 hour away. Our concierge will assist in planning and booking your activities to enable you to get the most out of your trip.

Placencia and the area around Little Harvest Caye is home to some of the best saltwater fly fishing for Bonefish, Permit and Tarpon in the world as well as amazing snook, snapper and other fishing literally right off of the island.

Placencia is also known for amazing diving and snorkeling, including an annual visit each year of the amazing and elusive Whale Shark, usully frm March to June.

The Little Harvest Caye concierge can arrange for diving and fishing tours to be picked up and dropped off at the island dock.

Whether you want explore Belize to the fullest or relax by the pool Little Harvest Caye will provide a vacation like no other.

At Gecko Vacation Rentals, we are passionate about two things; providing the highest quality services and ensuring our guests have a great vacation & experience in Belize. Our extraordinary property provides a one-of-a-kind setting, but the amenities we provide elevate it to a league of its own. From the personal chef to daily guest laundry, our idea is that our guests should not have to lift a finger. The staff at the island will stock the fully equipped kitchen with provisions as requested in advance, so our guests can get into vacation mode right away, with no effort and only the actual cost of the food you have selected.
