Life at the Confluence of Five Ecosystems

Situated along the Sittee River in Belize, The Reserve residential and marina development offers purchasers the opportunity to acquire beautiful properties for post-retirement living or investment. The Reserve affords residents the experience of living amidst five distinctive ecosystems of Belize, each filled with natural wonders.

The riverine ecosystem occurs at the nexus of fresh and saltwater habitats filled with a rich diversity of wildlife. Human residents share the area along the Sittee River with manatees, egrets, turtles, and other inhabitants. The tropical savanna is the community’s 2,000-acre length of sub-tropical scrublands that is home to an unusual variety of plants, trees, tropical birds, and animals. The Belizean jungle’s 10,000 acres of private preserve are filled with mahogany trees, waterfalls, growths of broadleaf trees, and more. 

The Caribbean marine ecosystem parallels the wetlands of the Florida Everglades and offers sparkling lagoons and stands of mangrove trees where a wealth of sea creatures find shelter. The fifth ecosystem, the coral reef, lies off the community’s own island. Residents who scuba dive or snorkel can explore the beauty beneath the waves, where a thriving coral reef system provides a home for turtles, sharks, rays, and rainbows of tropical fish.
