Welcome to Paradise

Belize’s best-kept secret: Tobacco Caye Paradise is the perfect tropical getaway, a location unlike any other along the Barrier Reef.

This palm-fringed five-acre islet is part of the South Water Caye Marine Reserve, a 17,878-acre offshore wonderland for divers, snorkelers, and kayakers. A UNESCO World Heritage Site since 1996

With a year-round population of just 30 people, no public phones, and no televisions, this island is the perfect place to unplug, swing in a hammock, and soak in the simplicity of island life.

We are off-the-grid, but we do have wifi!

At Tobacco Caye you’ll experience a truly unique and sustainable stay. Here life slows down, nature takes center stage, and every day is an invitation to live simply and meaningfully.

“This is the most romantic deal on Tobacco with the only overwater bungalows on the island. Paradise has six brightly painted cabañas perched on stilts over the water with private baths and cold-water showers. Verandas, with chairs and hammocks, look out toward the reef where the water is shallow enough to wade in.”

“Loved our quaint cabin over the sea and the warm sea breeze blowing through the cabin at night. Hammock and chairs on the deck were great for viewing pelicans, rays, and relaxing. Hosts were wonderful and accommodating. Food was very good”

— Eric M - Bellevue, Washington
