From arranging for a special table on a celebratory night to hosting private parties or even having your favourite dishes delivered straight to your door, Four Seasons makes unique culinary experiences a part of everyday life no matter where you live.

Home for the Holidays at Four Seasons Private Residences

Posted on October 1, 2024November 26, 2024 by Jennifer Sanchez

They say the prettiest sight to see during the holidays is the holly on your own front door. For homeowners at Four Seasons Private Residences, that’s especially true. In London, Boston, Los Angeles, Kuala Lumpur, San Francisco and Bangkok, Four Seasons goes the extra mile every holiday season to make sure everyone feels the warmth. However you celebrate, when you live with Four Seasons, coming home always means coming home to family.

Residents can expect a variety of holiday dining events and community activities.

Setting the holiday mood

The smell of fresh-cut Christmas trees, the twinkling of lights, the colourful bows and other holiday décor can instantly put you in the holiday spirit. “Decorating for festive season is one of the most important projects for us,” notes Andra Bodea, Regional Director of Residences at Twenty Grosvenor Square, A Four Seasons Residence. “We aim to set ourselves apart from other residential buildings, and this plays a big role. We try to be very creative and bring excitement every year by transforming the common areas of the building into magic.” Each year, the teams across Four Seasons Private Residences work closely with florists and decorators to decide on a theme and strategize every detail. “We have wonderful partners and floral designers, all masters of their craft, to help us bring holiday cheer to the residences, always with elegance and tact to respect and show love and appreciation to everyone in our community,” says Eric Jausseran, Director of Experiences at Four Seasons Private Residences One Dalton Street, Boston.

And it’s not just Christmas that gets the spotlight at Four Seasons. “On the first night of Hanukkah, residents and employees gather at our menorah prominently displayed in the lobby to celebrate the Festival of Lights,” says Jon Ondrak, Director of Residences at Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles. “Throughout the month, we add special touches of holiday cheer around the pool and other building common areas to celebrate the season.”

In Malaysia, the major holidays throughout the year are typically Eid-al-Fitr, Chinese New Year and Deepavali (also known as Diwali). “These festivals reflect the rich cultural diversity and traditions that unite the nation in festive joy and harmony,” says Leena Ong, Director of Residences at Four Seasons Private Residences Kuala Lumpur. “We take great pride and joy in creating a visually warm and enchanting atmosphere in our common areas.” During the last Eid-al-Fitr, for example, decorations included intricate ketupat motifs and vibrant lights and floral arrangements meticulously curated to evoke a sense of joy and ignite the festive spirit. During this time, the team members donned cultural attire fit for the celebration – adding a richness to the festivities and an authentic experience.

While the common areas are often the most elaborate, every residential team also goes above and beyond to assist homeowners with decorating their own residences by facilitating tree delivery, unpacking décor from storage and then helping to take it all down when the time comes. In Boston, getting your holiday décor ready has never been easier. “The first week of December, we are planning a Holiday Tree Sip & Shop Market,” notes Jausseran. “The idea is to bring joy but also to facilitate it with an on-property holiday décor event where residents can come to the lobby and choose their perfect holiday tree and wreaths while enjoying peppermint mimosas, hot cocoa and cookies.”

Four Seasons residential teams are always on hand to help you put together the perfect holiday party, from planning to personal grocery shopping to creating tailored menus.

Festive food and drink

Because many treasured holiday moments are spent enjoying each other’s company around the table, the residential teams put extra care into food and drink options during this time of year. “The holidays, for us, typically start in mid-November, about two weeks before Thanksgiving, with our One Dalton Wine Festival,” says Jausseran. “By bringing together 20 regions and dozens of professionals, the idea is to help our residents choose the perfect wines in time for the holidays and their get-togethers. It’s also a great moment of conviviality.”

In addition to creating thoughtful opportunities for enhancing residents’ holiday planning, the robust food and beverage programs at every property also offer tailored menus, personal grocery shopping and the services of a private chef for Christmas meals or other family gatherings. And although individual families are given personalized service and attention everywhere, many properties also invite residents to celebrate together as a community. At Four Seasons Private Residences at 706 Mission, San Francisco, the season always kicks off with a Friendsgiving in November, hosted by a local restaurant and held in The Club. “Last year, all our residents gathered on the club level, and it was a big success,” says Gina Thomas, Regional Director of Residences. “Michael Mina hosted the event, and he did a cooking demonstration on what to do with Thanksgiving leftovers. He turned leftover stuffing into bread and made an amazing sandwich – our residents loved this.”

Many residents have family in town for the holidays, and the residential teams can help put together itineraries for their visit.

The joy of togetherness

When you reside with Four Seasons, your family becomes a part of something bigger. Many residents have friends and family visiting during this time of year, and the residential teams are ready to welcome them. In Boston, the team at One Dalton invites parents, grandparents and children to a family concert by the world-renowned Boston Symphony Orchestra in November. “We are blessed that the famous orchestra hall is just a five-minute walk from our property. We’ll do it in true Four Seasons fashion, with hot cocoa waiting for the entire family on their return. It will really set the mood for the most magical time of the year.”

For young residents, the holiday season is often filled with thoughts of Santa Claus and presents under the tree. From letters to Santa in San Francisco to cookie decorating and a visit from the red-suited man himself at Four Seasons Private Residences Bangkok at Chao Phraya River, each team makes it a point not only to celebrate children but also to draw out the childlike wonder in everyone.

Giving back to the community

The end of the year is often a time when people reassess their charitable giving and make their final donations. With this in mind, the team in Boston began the One Dalton Holiday Mixer for a Cause, both to help residents decide on their final contributions and to build an even stronger Four Seasons community.

Every year, Four Seasons Private Residences One Dalton Street, Boston also partners with a luxury boutique that generously agrees to donate a significant percentage of the proceeds of the sales from the mixer to the property’s charity of choice. In the past, this has included Italian fashion brands Loro Piana and Brunello Cucinelli, with proceeds going to local non-profit organizations such as food banks, shelters and parks. “This is a great opportunity to engage our community around a common goal for causes and social impacts close to their hearts,” says Jausseran. “It is also a way for our relatively new property to partner with important neighbours and make a crucial difference within our community.”

There’s a similar spirit of giving at Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles, where staff and residents host a clothing and donation drive for families in the greater Los Angeles area, and at Four Seasons Private Residences 706 Mission, San Francisco, where the residents host an annual toy drive.

Personalized service with a twist

Four Seasons always goes above and beyond for residents, especially during this time of year in order to create a luxury Christmas and holiday experience. By getting to know every family throughout the year, supporting them in their holiday traditions becomes second nature. In London at Twenty Grosvenor Square, A Four Seasons Residence, traditions continue even if the homeowners are absent. During a previous Deepavali, the team kept the main door of one apartment open when the owners were not home to respect the tradition of having the door open for good luck and prosperity.

No matter where you live or how you celebrate, the heartfelt moments, thoughtful touches and genuine care make the holidays – and every day – special at Four Seasons.

An Iconic Landmark in the Making:
Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul

Posted on January 30, 2024July 24, 2024 by Jennifer Sanchez

Inspired by three millennia of history, the soon-to-open Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul is set to become one of the most sought-after addresses in an already iconic city. Combining legendary Four Seasons service, world-class amenities and an effortless homeownership experience, this standalone development will set a new standard for luxury living right in the heart of Istanbul. Join us as we take a look inside and uncover the inspiration behind the exciting new development.

A dynamic neighbourhood filled with history

Located on the European side where the districts of Ulus, Etiler and Levent come together, Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul offers effortless luxury living in a dynamic and culture-rich neighbourhood. Think of gazing out over the mighty Bosphorus from a streetside café nearby, or stopping in a fashionable boutique for your next unique find. Strolling along the waterfront streets of Bebek, or exploring the hills of Etiler, where the city’s most notable culinary names await – all will be within easy reach.

“Our project is designed to integrate harmoniously with Istanbul’s vibrant atmosphere, conveniently situated near Istanbul’s prominent shopping and dining districts,” says Mesut Toprak, Chairman of the Tay Group, the development partner collaborating with Four Seasons. “We prioritize striking a delicate balance between [helping residents] engage in city activities, while safeguarding family privacy and serenity.” The goal, he says, is for both local and international residents to feel a connection to Istanbul through location, architecture, design and amenities.

This connection is further amplified by the personalized service that Four Seasons is known for. From making dinner reservations and stocking your kitchen with your favourite local pastries, to picking up your custom order from a designer shop nearby, the dedicated Four Seasons team will go the extra mile to make sure you feel right at home.

Design that merges the past, present and future

The residences themselves spread across four blocks in three ultra-modern towers and one low-rise building. A curated mix of Garden Suites, Apartment Residences, Penthouses and a Sky Loft, the 82 homes will have open-concept living spaces perfect for entertaining and relaxation in equal measure.

We view the architectural designs and materials not solely as historical tributes; they represent the ongoing sophistication of Istanbul’s urban landscape. – Mesut Toprak, Chairman of the Tay Group

Because no two Four Seasons residences are exactly alike, you can expect each residence to be fully customized. “We provide 46 distinctive floor plans catering to diverse lifestyles and preferences. This includes everything from expansive six-bedroom family apartments to minimalist two-bedroom urban living spaces that prioritize comfort without compromise,” Toprak says. “Nestled in one of Istanbul’s most prestigious areas, our apartments reflect the essence of both traditional Instanbulite and modern urban living. They are thoughtfully designed to provide rare urban sanctuaries, featuring terraces and gardens that present homeowners with a chance to relish their own private green spaces amid the urban landscape – a cornerstone of our design philosophy.”

Given the project’s iconic location, Toprak says, its architecture can be seen as a continuation of the residential architectural styles that emerged in the nearby Nişantaşı and Beyoğlu (formerly Pera) districts during the 19th century. However, “we view the architectural designs and materials not solely as historical tributes; they represent the ongoing sophistication of Istanbul’s urban landscape.”

Those with an eye for architecture, he notes, will find themselves immersed in detecting how these elements intertwine, showcasing the rich tapestry of Istanbul’s past and present.

Views from above

Most of the residences will fall within two categories: Garden Suites and Apartment Residences. The Garden Suites will provide the option of single-floor or duplex homes, each featuring private garden terraces accessible through floor-to-ceiling sliding windows. The Apartment Residences will range from two-bedroom to five-bedroom apartments, offering flexibility and comfort made to suit families or those looking for a luxurious Istanbul pied-à-terre.

Set atop each of the three residential towers will be the Penthouse Residences: ultra-exclusive homes featuring 7-metre-high (23-foot-high) ceilings and living areas focused on an expansive outdoor terrace. The primary bedroom on the upper floor will boast panoramic views and a distinctive crown attribute. Floor-to-ceiling windows will drench each Penthouse in natural light throughout the day, creating an impressive and tranquil space that showcases stunning city vistas.

The other crown jewel will be the Sky Loft Residence, perched on the low-rise building in the centre of the complex. Characterized by high-sloped ceilings and skylight windows in both the bedroom and living areas, the Sky Loft is designed to capitalize on the feeling of spaciousness. The interiors of this bright and airy residence optimize the interplay of space and light, augmented by innovative glass ceilings that maximize city views for an inspiring environment year round.

A sustainable and high-tech approach

Energy-efficient buildings, sustainable materials and green living are a priority at all Four Seasons properties, and they also rank high on the priority list for homebuyers. The team behind the residential property in Istanbul understands the crucial role sustainability holds not only in various aspects of real estate development but also in enhancing the well-being, productivity and overall satisfaction of residents and the community.

“Our commitment to sustainability is at the forefront of our design philosophy. In our quest to create living spaces that nurture both residents and the environment, we have integrated a multitude of eco-friendly features. Our project proudly meets the rigorous standards set by the LEED certification,” says Toprak. LEED – Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design – is the world’s foremost green building rating system. “By prioritizing energy efficiency, optimizing air circulation, implementing rainwater collection and purification systems, and mitigating light and sound pollution, these residences work to benefit the environment, society and investors alike,” says Toprak.

In addition to intelligent building design, the residences will feature environmentally friendly VRF air conditioning and state-of-the-art under-floor heating, plus noise-cancelling technology and full insulation between residences. The complex itself will feature a parking structure with electric vehicle charging stations and advanced automation designed for 21st-century living.

An extension of your living space

When you live with Four Seasons, you’re not just getting an amazing home, you also gain access into an exclusive lifestyle. As a standalone property – meaning one that’s not connected to a hotel or resort – Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul will be home to an array of world-class amenities tailored specifically for residential use.

“Our intent is for residents to enjoy the shared amenities as a seamless extension of their homes – an extra kitchen, a treatment room and a cinema room equipped with a superior audiovisual system,” says Toprak. “We believe this goal aligns perfectly with Four Seasons hospitality standards.”

Self-care is made easy at the state-of-the-art spa featuring a sauna, steam rooms and a heated indoor swimming pool perfect for morning swims surrounded by natural light. You can also relax on the outdoor garden deck, spend some time in the fully equipped fitness centre or the private yoga and Pilates studio, or opt for a relaxing spa treatment in the privacy of your residence.

A golf simulator suite, stylish multi-purpose lounges, and private cinema furnished with luxe leather seating and leading-edge AV technology will be perfect for days when you’re hosting guests or looking for fun. The family-friendly residential complex will also boast a bright and well-stocked kids’ playroom, as well as a young adult room featuring everything from table tennis and chess to video games to keep young residents and their friends entertained.

“The common spaces were meticulously crafted to evoke a residential ambience, seamlessly extending the essence of the apartments,” shares Toprak. “Our focus was on creating a fluid transition from the entrance to the amenities, inviting homeowners to enjoy the luxury of amenities reminiscent of their own homes.”

A history of excellence

Four Seasons has set the benchmark for hospitality in Istanbul for more than 30 years. In partnership with the Tay Group, both Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at the Bosphorus and Four Seasons Hotel Istanbul at Sultanahmet were meticulously restored to become the renowned luxury hotels in Istanbul that they are today.

“As we expand our standalone residences in priority markets worldwide, Istanbul presents the perfect opportunity to build on the success and reputation of our renowned hotels at Sultanahmet and the Bosphorus, creating a distinct lifestyle experience with the privacy and comforts of home,” says Bart Carnahan, President, Global Business Development, Portfolio Management and Residential. “This new project is a natural extension of our partnership with Tay Group, and we are proud to collaborate once again as we offer residents the ultimate living experience in Istanbul.”

To create a truly seamless living experience, Four Seasons Private Residences Istanbul will be managed by a dedicated team, including a Director of Residences and Residential Concierge, that will focus on delivering the legendary service that Four Seasons is known for. Imagine dinner parties with tailored menus prepared by a Four Seasons chef, unexpected birthday surprises or your favourite flowers arranged on your table to brighten up a rainy day, all done with genuine care. At Four Seasons, your residence is an extension of you, so no detail is too small or too big when it comes to creating a home and a life you love.

Extraordinary Living at Four Seasons Private Residences

Posted on July 20, 2023August 3, 2023 by Colleen Mitchell

Home is often described as a feeling. A feeling of belonging and being at ease. It’s where you can relax, be yourself and fully focus on the things you really care about. When you live with Four Seasons, you have a dedicated partner in creating not just a home, but a life you love, filled with experiences that are exclusive, distinctive and personal.

“In addition to beautiful private residences and exceptional Four Seasons service, luxury living is also about bringing the unexpected, the new,” says Eric Jausseran, Residential Lifestyle Manager at Four Seasons Private Residences Boston One Dalton. “It’s about delivering unrivalled experiences to a discerning audience.” From on-site luxury car test drives to expert-led scuba diving at some of the world’s best dive sites, life at Four Seasons Private Residences is anything but ordinary. The mix of curated activities and bespoke service, plus access to world-class amenities, offers exactly what luxury homeowners are looking for: effortless and fulfilling lifestyles that are as unique as they are.

One Dalton is set in Boston’s scenic Back Bay neighbourhood.

When you live at One Dalton, the whole city is your playground.

Exclusive access to the best of your city

“We are here to enrich our residents’ lives,” says Jausseran. “We want to offer original experiences, inspire new emotions and create memories for them and their families.” In Boston, that can mean a field trip to Cape Cod to visit an oyster farm, explore the hatchery and spend the day on a boat with farmers to learn about their craft. Or, it can be something simple, like a private cooking class with a chef to learn how to prepare the perfect authentic salade Niçoise for your summer lunches.

“It’s about gratification and connection as well as building a community,” says Jausseran. “There is a strong desire to connect over exceptional and creative experiences.” Earlier this year, Jausseran and his team invited residents to attend one of the first recitals of a world-renowned pianist who was a guest artist of the Boston Symphony Orchestra. After the concert, the property hosted a convivial dinner with the pianist in the private residential lounge. “Our residents loved the chance to share a beautiful evening together with a fascinating artist,” says Jausseran.

Experts in the exceptional

Behind every resident is a dedicated team of professionals driven to make their life as seamless as possible. “To provide intuitive, anticipatory service, you must go beyond the expected,” says James Carter, Director of Residences at
Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles. “In LA, we are very fortunate that with a relatively small team, our highly cross-functional people are eager to please and are fully supportive of one another, so we can do whatever it takes to exceed residents’ expectations.”

The team’s ability to anticipate needs combined with the ability to think creatively has resulted in unique experiences tailored exclusively for residents. “Our thought process is centered around the benefit to the community,” says Carter. “We want to bring everyone together by putting on events that make our residents smile, feel special and build connection. Our Porsche event was a testament to this process.”

Since Los Angeles is a very car-centric city, many Four Seasons residents who already own high-value or rare vehicles are curious about moving into the world of luxury electric vehicles. Noticing this, the team was excited to arrange for Porsche to bring a fleet of cars to test drive. The sign-up process was quick and easy, and the event resulted in two residents purchasing a Porsche Taycan 4S, the luxury carmaker’s first-ever fully electric option.

“We want to bring everyone together by putting on events that make our residents smile, feel special and build connection,” says James Carter, Director of Residences at Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles.

The IMAX Private Theatre Palais™ is perfect for private parties and screenings.

LA residents can unwind by the pool or relax in a private cabana, complete with custom food and beverage service.

Just steps from your door

As a perfect complement to the expertise of the residential team, many on-site amenities at Four Seasons Private Residences Los Angeles have been designed to further facilitate joy and meet modern needs. The IMAX Private Theatre Palais™ and its adjacent lounge allow residents to book the private space to enjoy a new movie release, see big sporting events in immersive high-definition or gather with friends to watch the season finale of their favourite show, complete with custom food and drink options.

It’s exactly these kind of intuitive and service-rich environments that Four Seasons specializes in. “From the valet to the gym to our food and beverage program, we can adapt to their different needs and customize our service,” notes Carter.

Four Seasons Private Residences Bangkok at Chao Phraya River offers incredible views of the city.

Community-driven gatherings help create social comradery among neighbours, but it’s also the little things that make living with Four Seasons so special. By making use of the unique amenities, residential teams are also able to create personalized experiences. One evening at Four Seasons Private Residences Bangkok at Chao Phraya River, the residential team kept their on-site screening room open in the middle of the night so a resident could watch a highly anticipated sporting match without disturbing the rest of his family.

Because at the heart of every interaction is the genuine desire to get to know each resident, tailoring their days becomes second nature. The Bangkok team always makes sure to prepare one resident’s favourite coffee drink – an iced cappuccino – whenever she books the boardroom for work. And residents regularly wake up to their favourite pastries and breakfast items waiting for them right outside their doors.

Everything is highly personalized at Four Seasons Private Residences, and the sense of belonging can be felt from the moment you walk in the door.

The proximity to the culinary offerings at the adjoining Four Seasons Hotel Bangkok at Chao Phraya River provides another perk, offering access to Michelin-starred dining, stylish gathering places and extensive in-home dining options. “Whether it is a romantic dinner, a birthday party or simply a weekend get-together with friends, our team will work with the Hotel to craft and deliver a memorable dining experience for our residents,” says Scott Trent, Director of Residences. And it’s not just special occasions either – everyday needs like restaurant reservations, taking your dog for a walk or middle-of-the-night snacks are treated with the same level of care, 24 hours a day.

Our luxury spa facilities are a haven of tranquillity – a place to reset, relax and awaken the senses.

State-of-the-art event venues are perfect for business meetings and gatherings – no matter how large or small.

Exceptional settings to call home

Location is always top of mind when choosing a home, and with Four Seasons, you’ll find coveted addresses in unique, sought-after destinations. One of the most anticipated projects currently under development is Four Seasons Private Residences Lake Austin. This standalone property sits on 145 secluded acres (59 hectares) overlooking Lake Austin, just 20 minutes from downtown Austin, Texas. Here, residents can experience resort-style country living at its most elevated. The extensive wellness offerings will include a private spa, an indoor pool and winter garden, and a 60,000-square-foot Indoor Sports Club for all manner of athletic pursuits. Residents will also have access to a private theatre outfitted with a 60-foot-wide Samsung Onyx Cinema LED Screen. The infinite contrast, ultra-high-resolution screen makes it ideal for watching sporting events and live concerts, and the theatre’s rear wall has been designed to open to the lounge above, ideal for large-scale gatherings and private events.

Another standout features in Lake Austin will be the private, residents-only marina, accessible via the glass-walled Funicular that offers incredible panoramic views throughout the entire two-minute descent to the water. Once there, the 3,500-square-foot Lake Clubhouse and private boat slips invite residents to connect with the natural landscape that surrounds them. Not only are the views beautiful and relaxing, but studies show that living near water also provides more opportunities for physical activities and social connection.

Bring Wellness Home With Four Seasons

Posted on February 7, 2023June 16, 2025 by Colleen Mitchell

“How we spend our days is, of course, how we spend our lives,” wrote Annie Dillard. But replace the “how” in this equation with “where” and you have the predominant thought running through the minds of most potential homeowners.

More and more, luxury real estate buyers are looking for amenities that exist as an extension of a residence to determine whether it’s the place for them. That includes everything from a place to do daily exercise to access to nature and the quality of the air and light both inside and out. Because it’s not just a home you’re buying, it’s also the environment and lifestyle that come with it. The approach is a holistic one that centres wellness and joy just as much as everything else.

From a serene indoor garden outfitted with private thermal pools and a spa on the shores of Lake Austin to an organic farm-to-table restaurant in Belize, Four Seasons Private Residences offer world-class wellness amenities, privacy and a dedication to intuitive, personalized service in Residences throughout the world. Wellness-minded buyers take note – here are some of the most impressive features and amenities you’ll find at Four Seasons.

The Garden Plaza sits at the centre of Four Seasons Private Residences Lake Austin.

An air-conditioned, glass-walled funicular will take residents down the cliffside to the water’s edge.

Owners at Lake Austin have access to an incredibly array of curated amenities, all easily reached via scenic walking paths.

A sustainable community on Lake Austin

Having a place in the country looks a little different than you might expect at
Four Seasons Private Residences Lake Austin. This standalone residential property – meaning it’s not attached to a hotel or resort – is perched high up on a secluded cliffside overlooking Lake Austin, with views of downtown Austin just a glance away. Developer Jonathan Coon has a singular vision for this beautiful stretch of 145 acres (59 hectares) in Texas Hill Country, one where sustainability, high-end design and environmental stewardship all work together to create a curated, frictionless lifestyle.

To achieve that vision, the amenities here are just as big a selling feature as the incredible setting. Residents at Lake Austin will have access to private wellness, spa, beauty and fitness experiences on-site, along with plenty of opportunities for outdoor recreation. The Orangerie, a lush indoor garden featuring an 82-foot (25 metre) pool plus ample areas for yoga and meditation, leads to a state-of-the-art Athletic Center with private training rooms, two squash courts, a full-size indoor basketball court, an indoor clay tennis court, an outdoor tennis court, four dedicated indoor pickleball courts, two golf simulators, and a children’s gym and play area. A private spa and beauty salon are also on-site.

Outside, the main draw is the waterfront. Residents can hop on a glass-walled funicular for a two-minute, air-conditioned ride down to the lake and private marina, a setting so untouched that this is the only way you can access it. Once there, a 3,500-square-foot private Lake Clubhouse and owners-only boat slips help facilitate your lakeside fun. On Lake Austin, getting out of the city comes with so much more than peace and quiet (though you’ll have that, too).

A dedication to conservation is at the heart of this island community, and owners at Four Seasons Private Residences Caye Chapel, Belize, can enjoy the natural beauty that surrounds them while also investing in its protection and its future. Sustainable practices such as replanting native flora, a solar electricity program, sustainably caught seafood and an on-site organic garden that supplies the island restaurants with fresh produce all serve to nurture a healthy, mutually beneficial relationship between the community and the island itself. Residents can explore and learn about incredible dive sites such as the Great Blue Hole; try out a variety of water activities; or take it easy with yoga sessions, a day at the spa or a relaxing afternoon on the beach enjoying in the fresh island breeze. If you’re looking to reconnect with nature, absorb the healing properties of water and tap into the island way of life, Caye Chapel is a tropical escape you can feel good about.
