s to open a private island resort in Belize. 

The proposed property on the island of Caye Chapel will feature an 18-hole golf course, a marina, two beach clubs, tennis courts and overwater bungalows. Four Seasons plans to open the property in 2021.

Caye Chapel is located in the Belize archipelago in the Caribbean Sea, adjacent to the Unesco World Heritage designated Belize Barrier Reef System, the largest reef system in the northern hemisphere.

J Allen Smith, president and chief executive of the hotel brand, said: "We are excited to be part of the reimagination of Caye Chapel into an exclusive luxury experience, and to do so in a way that protects and reinforces the natural wonders of the island."
