What Makes Belize So Special?
Belize is a safe, affordable, welcoming little Caribbean country where the people value privacy and freedom.
English-speaking Belize is one of the most affordable retirement and lifestyle options in the Caribbean... Here you can:
- Own a slice of beachfront from as little as US$20,000 (a fraction what you'd pay for the same Caribbean view in St. Lucia or the Bahamas, for example... and, you'll have far less competition in sunny Belize for a place to stretch out on the beach)...
- Choose to live on the mainland coast, on one of the cayes, or inland in the lesser-known and fascinating Cayo region that's recently been catching on... no matter where you decide to settle, you'll enjoy a warm climate and plenty of sunshine year-round...
- Buy a 3,200-square-foot estate home, with a 1,300-square-foot guesthouse on the property, for just US$125,000... or a brand-new, two-bedroom home in San Ignacio (a charming off-the-radar riverside town where life is sweet and simple) for less than US$50,000...
- Be surrounded by nature—from the second-largest barrier reef in the world to Mayan ruins and tropical jungle and rain forest... all unspoiled and ready for your adventure...
- Enjoy a completely different culture in the English-speaking world. Often the hurdle of mastering a new language can be reason alone to rule out an otherwise perfect retirement option. With English as the official language of Belize, this complication is removed...
- Have an extraordinary lifestyle (living at the beach, eating out regularly, making new friends among the welcoming local community, enjoying the pastimes you never had enough time for back home) on a budget of less than US$1,200 per month... that's less than the average Social Security check...
- As a Qualified Retired Person—Belize's retirement residency program that allows you to "retire" here as young as 45 years of age—bring your household goods... and even your car or a motorboat... duty-free...
