About This Property

282 Acres near Santa Cruz

This parcel is a prime development opportunity With fertile land and an expansive thick jungle, and it is located just across the road from Santa Cruz.

This large jungle parcel has much to offer with stunning mountain views, a large freshwater creek, dark, fertile soil, and beautiful dense jungle vegetation; it truly encapsulates the natural beauty of Belize.

This expansive property is also home to a variety of beautiful Belizean hardwoods including mahogany, the gum tree, bullet seeds, black orchid trees, as well as Cohune Palm trees, showcasing the fertility of the land and its ability to grow an abundance of lush vegetation.

This parcel boasts easy access with over 1,500 feet of road front on Silver Creek Road, which connects directly to the Southern Highway. Less than a mile from the Uno gas station just down the highway provides convenient access to gas for any vehicles or machinery and easy access to the rest of Santa Cruz for food and entertainment, while still being a private and secluded area.

Location

This expansive property is just across the Southern Highway from Santa Cruz and less than 20 minutes from the Placencia Peninsula.

Santa Cruz is a quaint farming community with fantastic fresh produce, small markets and stores with good deals, and a few great restaurants and bars. Santa Cruz is one of the fastest-growing communities in Belize and accommodates a majority of the workforce for the Placencia peninsula. Many people migrate to Santa Cruz from further inland for work and the lifestyle. The Maya mountains are steps away and a fantastic spot to adventure for hikers, waterfall chasers, explorers, bird watchers, animal lovers, and general nature enthusiasts.

Placencia is less than a 30-minute drive south and is Belize’s 2nd most significant tourist destination. With beautiful soft white sands and stunning clear blue water, you’re just a short drive from Caribbean Beach Paradise. Placencia Village is lively, with many excellent restaurants, bars, and shops; celebrations and parties occur almost every day.

Opportunity for Development

This 282-acre parcel provides a blank canvas for development possibilities, whether you aspire to preserve the land’s natural beauty, create a resort oasis, or establish a personal homestead. Located in close proximity to popular attractions like the Cockscomb Basin Wildlife Sanctuary and the Mayan World Adventure Park, this location presents a unique opportunity for tourism development that diverges from the mainstream offerings in Belize.

Consider building eco-friendly lodges, resorts, or treehouse accommodations to cater to the growing influx of eco-tourists and those seeking an unparalleled experience in the lush jungles of Belize. Embracing sustainable building practices and promoting responsible tourism can serve as compelling selling points.

With ample space available, embarking on developing a residential community becomes a feasible option. Subdividing the land for sale or constructing vacation rental homes can cater to those seeking a more upscale tourist experience.

This beautiful 282-acre property presents an enticing opportunity for astute investors interested in tapping into Belize’s flourishing tourism industry. With its breathtaking natural beauty, lush jungle vegetation, diverse topography, pristine beaches, and vibrant marine life, Belize captivates tourists globally.
