A residential category long associated with the Maldives and French Polynesia arrives in the Western Caribbean.
SAN PEDRO, AMBERGRIS CAYE, BELIZE, September 22, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ — Overwater bungalows have long defined a certain pinnacle of luxury travel, yet genuine ownership of an overwater residence has remained almost entirely unavailable. Travelers could stay in one. Until now, they could not own one anywhere in the Caribbean.
Six Senses Residences, Belize is introducing that category to the region. Set on Emerald Caye, a private island a five-minute boat ride from Ambergris Caye, the development will comprise 40 overwater hotel suites operated under the Six Senses brand and a collection of 16 private beachfront residences. It is among the first residential offerings of its kind in the Caribbean and the first in Belize.
Belize offers a distinctive foundation for the category: an English-speaking country with a legal system rooted in British common law, full foreign ownership rights, no restrictions on residency, and direct flights of two to four hours from most major U.S. gateways. The island sits within sight of the Belize Barrier Reef, the second-largest coral reef system in the world.
“What we are delivering is not a variation on an existing product. It is a new category for the Caribbean. Buyers who want to own an overwater or private-island residence have historically had to look halfway around the world. Belize changes that.”
– Daniel Kalenov, CRDG LLC, Developer
A VERY LIMITED COLLECTION
The residential offering is intentionally small: 16 titled, fee simple beachfront villas in three- and five-bedroom configurations, ranging from approximately 4,400 to 7,600 square feet of indoor and outdoor living space. Each residence sits on its own individually owned parcel, with purchases structured through a two-part contract that separates land ownership from construction. Construction is underway, with completion targeted for late 2028. Residences range from $3.75 million to $5.99 million USD.
A SIX SENSES ISLAND LIFE
The private island community centres on an arrival dock, two elevated waterfront dining venues, a full-service spa, multiple pools, a yoga pavilion and tranquil lagoons, alongside the 40-suite overwater hotel. Owners share the estate with resort guests and hold access to its amenities, the reef just offshore, and Belize’s wider draw of diving, snorkelling, fly fishing and Mayan ruins.
OWNERSHIP BENEFITS
Owners have 24-hour residential concierge alongside à la carte services designed for residents. Owners hold VIP access to Six Senses Belize Resort and the entire global Six Senses portfolio, with preferred rates on rooms, dining, and spa experiences.
With construction underway, residences are now on sale. Inquiries to date have come from buyers across the United States, Canada, and Europe.
