Yes! Secret Beach is an all Off-Grid community with Solar power as the main form of electricity production. The small town of Secret Beach is west of San Pedro, Belize; on the beautiful Caribbean island of Ambergris Caye.
This little beach town is quickly becoming one of the top destinations on the island due to its fun and exciting beachfront environment; as well as great swimming and wading waters. But there is also a fast-growing community of residents moving in and living at Secret Beach in off-grid homes.
Behind all the beach bars and waterfront excitement; quiet and close-to-nature neighborhoods of off-grid homes are being developed, and it’s not just small wood homes and cabins. Concrete and block and custom hardwood luxury homes are being built and worked on every day in the Secret Beach area.
Most of the residential construction activity is starting to take place in the neighborhoods behind Secret Beach. These are the quiet neighborhoods of Grand Belizean Estates, Palmaya Woods, Grand Mayan, West Caye, and others.
But when it comes to utilities, it’s 100% off-grid. Because of the current infrastructure capabilities, even though San Pedro Town is only a few miles away, Secret Beach uses solar energy to produce its electricity.
All homes and businesses rely on solar power, propane, and generators to keep the little town of Secret Beach going. But just because you’re off-grid, doesn’t mean you’ll be roughing it. The area has some very luxurious homes as well as beautiful boutique beachfront resorts providing everything you could want in a unique waterfront hotel at Secret Beach.
Another thing to appreciate about Secret Beach is knowing that your environmental impact is less because your enjoyment was provided by solar-powered electricity and reusable rainwater that was caught in rain barrels or rainwater cisterns.
If you’re building a home or a business in the area, you’ll need to make considerations for your solar system. It is an added expense but you will also have the benefit of no to low utility and electric expenses. Plus, how fun is it to own an off-grid, solar-powered home in a quiet beach town on a beautiful Caribbean island.
Secret Beach is a place to visit, a place to work, and a place to live. There are more and more homes and businesses being built every day it seems. Not to mention more bars, restaurants, stores, and even hotels like the Six Senses Resort that announced an off-grid experience that is coming soon to Secret Beach.
We are thrilled to see all the growth and activity happening in the newest must-see destination in Belize, Secret Beach.
