Renting a private island
Airbnb offers the opportunity to charter Bird Island, a private island in Belize, at the wide of Placencia. A dream experience, to say the least, with a minimum booking of three nights, at a cost of $795 each. All the peace of being on a desert island, combined with the comforts of a luxury vacation, what better to ask for? Considering the cost, prohibitive for many, it was well thought out to adapt the present facility to accommodate up to six people. This way splitting the expenses leads to an acceptable cost, which is $133 per night per person. A week in paradise will cost you about $930. Not bad for a vacation you will never forget.
Bird Island: what to know
Let us begin by saying that the attention received over the years by Bird Island has led its price per night to increase considerably. Sharing with friends, however, it is still definitely worth it, considering what this magical place offers on the nature front. Nevertheless, it is surprising to discover how between 2016 and 2018 it was possible to take advantage of a very advantageous cost of just over $300 per night.
Placencia is a small village with a tiny airport, which prompts tourists to travel to Belize City, the country's main hub. From here one can take advantage of a charter to get to Placencia. Some preparation is needed for this type of travel. Being on an island, isolated from everything and everyone, means having to carry food and drinks to survive. An expense that can be made in the Placencia center, before the last embarkation. It would be the case, however, to have with you a vacant baggage suitable for carrying everything you need. From the port to Bird Island takes about 30 minutes in the small boat of the owner, Fred.
Booking and imagining this experience is quite different from actually living it. To find oneself totally alone, especially at night, lulled by the water that dominates all around, is something indescribable. The accommodation is full of amenities and boasts kayaks to explore the surroundings a bit, trying of course to discover the seabed by snorkeling.
