Full Description:
Only 3 miles from Leonardo DiCaprio's private island, Blackadore Caye, Swab Caye is on of the most desirable and naturally beautiful islands in Belize and the Caribbean region.

The island is naturally high and dry, with natural white sandy beaches along its more than 2,750' of beach frontage. This 5 acre island is dotted with towering coconut palm trees and other mature tropical vegetation, and is surrounded by "gin-clear" turquoise waters that offer world-class fly-fishing flats. Whether you are looking to develop a boutique resort or hotel property, an eco-resort, corporate retreat, or private island estate, Swab Caye would reasonably make any short list of private island properties for consideration. Private tours of the island are available by boat, plane or helicopter for qualified buyers.

Swab Caye is located 10 miles from San Pedro Town, Ambergris Caye, Belize, and just 8 miles from world-renowned celebrity retreat, Cayo Espanto. World-class diving, snorkeling, fly fishing and deep sea fishing are located close-by with multiple dive sites located within 20-30 minutes by boat. Recent changes in construction regulations now allow for over-water bungalow construction in Belize, so this island may be ideal for overwater private villas or suites. Please contact listing agent for a copy of the Department of Environment Overwater Construction regulations.


Priced has been previously reduced from $4,100,000 to $3,500,000 USD, and has now been reduced even further to $2.2 million USD. All serious offers considered. Cash sale.

In 2005, my wife Lucinda and I, along with our three children - Trent (14), Christina (10), and Lauren (6), started our great Caribbean adventure by moving from the mountains of Colorado to the beaches of San Pedro Belize.

We told ourselves we would give our Caribbean adventure a year or two to play itself out but within 6 months we all decided that this is "home" and there was nothing temporary about that feeling. I can think of no better place for a family to raise children and enjoy a wonderful quality of life. We love to visit our 2nd home in Colorado, but Ambergris Caye is "Home, Sweet, Home".

My real estate career spans 19 years of experience in residential and commercial real estate, both domestic and international as well as professional property management. In addition I have a broad range of experience in restaurant management, hotel management, and luxury resort management in Colorado, Maine, and Belize.

I have owned and operated both franchise, and independent, real estate companies in the US and Belize, prior to founding RE/MAX Island Rea Estate in San Pedro, Belize.

I am an active real estate investor and real estate developer in Ambergris Caye, and would be happy to provide my consulting services for your real estate investment and development needs.

My specialty is in working with HNWI's (High Net Worth Individuals) interested in the three-fold objectives of asset protection/relocation, wealth preservation, and tax optimization.

My 6 years of experience have given me on-the-ground knowledge of Belizean culture, people, politics, ethics, laws, banking taxes, networking, and all aspects of property investment, financing, development, management and sales/marketing.

Let me put my experience and expertise to work for you.
