POST UPDATE 15-February-2026: This post is updated in cooperation with Amin Bensalem from islands Belize Sale, an important member from our communities.
Amin Bensalem was there in person to talk with manager of the island, and they made a nice educative video. I also asked him (as we frequently communicate) about visiting that island, what there is look like.
This is what he told me:
To be honest, it’s one of my favorite islands. You really feel like you’re in paradise there. The atmosphere is something special — everyone on the island, whether working there or visiting, seems genuinely happy and relaxed. The island sits directly on the reef, so you can dive anytime, day or night. It’s also built on solid rock, which makes it very stable and secure. And the food was unforgettable. The chef prepared meals I’ll probably remember for the rest of my life. You could say it’s because the lobsters and fish were just taken out of the water — and they were incredibly fresh — but he also served steaks that were honestly among the best I’ve ever had
