"Cayo Espanto is a serene four-acre private island resort with seven luxurious villas. The resort is known for its exceptional food and beverage offerings, with a menu curated by Belize-born chef Richard Gillett, featuring fresh seafood and local flavors. Meals are served at any hour via walkie-talkie or designated staff, and can be set up at various locations around the island, including private docks and beaches. The villas offer rustic yet luxurious designs with private platforms, infinity plunge pools, and open walls for immersion in natural surroundings. Each dining experience is tailored and unique, with no on-site restaurant or bar, making every meal a series of beautifully executed local dishes." - Maria Yagoda
