Hatchet Caye Resort Belize

4 or 6 Nights for Two with Daily Meals, Snorkeling, and Flight and Boat Transfers. Combine Up to 12 Nights.

Private Island Resort with Cabanas

You won’t find any towering high-rises, chain restaurants, or crowded beaches on the tiny isle of Hatchet Caye, located 18 miles off the coast of Belize. That’s because the only development on the kidney-bean-shaped island is Hatchet Caye Resort. A limited number of guests are permitted to stay in the resort’s handful of cabanas at any one time, ensuring that you’ll have stretches of secluded shoreline to explore while you’re there. These breezy-and-modern duplex cabanas are equipped with wicker and wooden furniture and massive windows looking out on palm trees and the sea.

Thanks to its location along the Mesoamerican reef—the world’s second-longest reef—Hatchet Caye boasts world-class snorkeling and scuba-diving opportunities. It’s worth borrowing some gear to embark on a nighttime snorkeling adventure. The pier is well lit, attracting fish, rays, squid, and turtles. During the day, you can take a dip in the resort’s freshwater pool or play a game of volleyball on the grass court. You can also rent paddleboats, Hobie Cats, and kayaks for free.

The plan grants you access to the Lionfish Grill for breakfast, lunch, and dinner served in an open-air pavilion. Dig into island fare, including coconut shrimp, Caribbean spiny lobster, lionfish tacos, and empanadas. Bartenders serve juices, soft drinks, cocktails, beers, and wine (not included with this Groupon).

Hatchet Caye, Belize: World-Class Snorkeling amid Turtles, Stingrays, and Nurse Sharks

A 10-minute boat ride from Hatchet Caye Resort brings you to the Turtle Spot—so named because of the loggerhead turtles that frequently congregate here (stingrays and nurse sharks have been known to drop by, too). Historically, marine life flocked to this site to feed on leftovers from local fishermen who would clean their catches in the area. Today, many sea creatures still mosey over when they hear a boat. One snorkel tour per person is included with your stay.

$1,199  Save 61%.  Book Here

See Tiananmen Square, Tour the Great Wall of China, and Visit Shanghai’s Bund District

Included with this tour package:

We’ve outlined some trip highlights below. Click here for a full itinerary.

Days 1–4: Beijing

After arriving in Beijing, you’ll meet an English-speaking tour guide and head to the Four Points by Sheraton Beijing, Haidian for some rest. The second day of the trip is set aside for self-guided exploration of the city, and day 3 covers some of the most popular sights during a full-day tour with stops at Tiananmen Square, the Forbidden City, and the Summer Palace, which was built along Kunming Lake in the 18th century. Its imperial grounds are filled with Qing-style pavilions, grand temples, and elaborate gardens.

Your last day in Beijing includes a hike along the Great Wall at Juyongguan Pass, a mountain pass that once played a vital role in China’s military defenses. After exploring the wall, the group will head to the Beijing Zoo, home to thousands of exotic animals, including several giant pandas. The evening winds down with a traditional peking-duck dinner.

Days 5–9: Shanghai

An early-morning flight on day 5 takes you to Shanghai, a glittering megametropolis and a testament to China’s staggering growth. Visitors can enjoy the city’s nonstop bustle on Shanghai Old Street, which blends attractions, entertainment, and cultural exhibits.

While in the area, you’ll visit the 2,500-year-old city of Suzhou, nicknamed the “Venice of the East” for its labyrinthine canals lined with stone-sculpture gardens. Stop at Suzhou’s Lingering Garden, where centuries-old pagodas stand amid tranquil pools bordered by limestone outcroppings. A detour to the city of Hangzhou includes a boat trip on West Lake, a serene waterscape dotted with islands and weeping willows.

After stopping at a traditional teahouse, the group returns to Shanghai for a visit to the famous Bund district. Set along the Huangpu River, the area features futuristic skyscrapers alongside classic examples of baroque and Gothic architecture. The next day, you’re free to explore Shanghai at your leisure. Consider paying a visit to the Old Town Bazaar to stock up on souvenirs at the thousands of booths selling everything from pan-fried dumplings to bamboo handicrafts and traditional Chinese garb.
