Gladded Private Island is the creation of Chris Krolow, host of HGTV’s Island Hunters and is our favorite place to stay in Belize.
Sheltered by the Belize Barrier Reef, Gladden Private Island is an intimate sanctuary of palms, powdery sand, and starry nights.
The low-lying coral islet rests in clear blue waters 20 miles (approximately one hour) east of the Belizean beach town of Placencia.
It’s an excellent base for snorkeling, diving, fishing, and beach-hopping excursions. The Gladden Spit, famous for its whale sharks diving, is just a few miles away.

Gladden Private Island is an intimate retreat; one suite, just for you. Inside, you’ll find two bedrooms, each with en suite bathroom.
