This is a ‘turn key” operation with reservations on the books for 2020 & 2021, with many reparations visitors and referrals by past guests to their friends, business associates and family. The business had been built on referrals and repeat customer base, but has much more potential to grow with advertising and marketing opportunities.
Resort currently accommodates up to 30, but with use of cabins could easily accommodate 40-45 (Current owner uses cabins for family visitors, friends and overflow only).

Location:
Located north of San Pedro Town, Belize. Belize is both part of the Caribbean Countries (Caricom) and Central America – it is the only country in either the Caribbean and Central America that is a member state of both entities. Uniquely located just south of Mexico’s famous Yucatán Peninsula (Cancun, Cozumel, Maya Riviera) and is located in a quiet area, but convenient to town and situated only a few hundred yards to the second largest barrier reef just offshore from your own beach.

Expansion Potential:
Very little marketing/promotion has been done with the property. Current owners have built a successful, reliable business through word of mouth, referral and repeat customer base only. There is plenty of opportunity to expand the volume of business through marketing and listing on additional websites, via travel agents and third party booking offices and websites (none of the third party options are currently in place).
Competition / Market:
This property has been uniquely positioned to accommodate and market itself to groups. They currently do not rent rooms only on a per night basis, but instead sell the entire resort to groups for family retreats, yoga retreats, business incentive meetings, business reward/appreciation groups, family reunions, wedding parties. While this business model could be changed, it has been very successful for the current owners in this type of operation and has room for expansion with advertising and marketing. The current owners have relied almost completely on referral and repeat business.
