Oceanfront reef houses

Oceanfront reef houses can accommodate four to six people. Standing tall along the oceanfront are two reef houses boasting spectacular 180-degree views from 36-foot private verandas high above the sea. Perfect for daytime sunbathing and nighttime stargazing, these homes include a living room with a wet bar and sofa bed, two bedrooms, and two oversized bathrooms with enough space to comfortably accommodate four to six people. Reef houses are perfect for families, couples traveling together, groups of friends, and anyone seeking a little extra privacy.

Explore Glover’s Reef Marine Reserve atop a kayak or paddleboard. Isla Marisol Resort welcomes all paddlers, whether novice or experienced, to explore above and below the sea. Two guided local paddle trips are scheduled each day to explore different parts of Glover’s Reef Atoll. Paddlers can also set out on their own and enjoy free use of a small fleet of single and tandem kayaks and paddle boards for use inside the lagoon and around the island.

Your SUP adventure will take place at Glover's Reef, Belize. Glover’s Reef Atoll is the southernmost of the three atolls found in Belize and is located approximately 30 miles off the Belizean coastline. Isla Marisol Resort is situated on Southwest Caye, which is one of only four inhabited islands on the atoll. Situated amid an idyllic UNESCO World Heritage Site and Protected Marine Park, Isla Marisol Resort is perfectly positioned to offer unparalleled island and ocean tours suited to all levels of experience.
