What is there about tropical islands that just the thought of vacationing on one is enough to kick-start our imaginations and stir our souls? For some, it’s the idea of being completely cut off from a world in which electronics, stressors, and pressure pervade every day. For others, islands are natural retreats that restore the balance in our lives and give us time to make life-changing decisions. According to Bristol Today, “Everyone needs to experience an island escape,” and if this year has been especially trying, that includes you.
What separates an island getaway from mainland escapes? Just about everything, especially if you prioritize a getaway to the Coco Plum Island Resort off Belize’s coast where seafood is freshly caught, privacy is prioritized at this adults-only property, and it’s impossible not to relax surrounded by white sandy beaches, gently swaying palm trees and perpetual sun.
Not quite ready to grab your swimsuit and escape?
No worries. Coco Plum Island Resort is so popular, January through April is mostly booked, so you’ve plenty of time to get ready for your May to December escape. There are plenty of reasons to skip the first quarter of 2025, including winter rate increases, but you’ll want to get on the books once spring arrives and winter crowds have disappeared. Of course, at Coco Plum, there are never any crowds because the entire island measures just 16 acres, and to ensure the ultimate solitude, the small number of private cabanas erected on the island are discreetly spread out.
Coco Plum’s All Inclusive Snorkeling Package includes everything you need to get the rest and relaxation you require for a single price, and since you’re saving money by selecting this package, you may wish to book an add-on (described at the bottom of the package page) that customizes your stay and adds to the allure of your retreat from the world.
What will you do on the island?
Here’s a secret you may wish to share with your travel companion: A stay on Coco Plum gifts you with the rare opportunity to do absolutely nothing but lounge around the resort’s swimming pool, close your eyes, and breathe. Once you’ve released lingering stressors, avail yourselves of island activities like piloting a Hobie Cat Wave, stand-up paddleboard, or kayaking around the island where blue waters induce “the blue effect,” a scientific term that describes boosting one’s sense of well-being.
According to Forbes, 2025 is expected to be the year that travelers prioritize experiences that “Play a role in living a longer, healthier life,” which is why Coco Plum’s Serenity Spa services and waterfront yoga deck will continue to be one of the resort’s most popular attractions. Remembering the size of this small island, you’ll want to book soon. Having a stay on the island to look forward to, you’ll be surprised how much better you feel in the months leading up to your visit!
