Reopening January 2021
We are pleased to announce that we will resume accepting guests beginning January 2021. By design, Blackbird Caye Resort is remote, providing the perfect place for social distancing and to enjoy complete privacy.
Please read through the current protocols for arrivals to Belize. A recent negative COVID test result (72 hours or less) is required or you’ll be subject to a rapid test upon arrival at the International airport. The local government may change these arrival protocols, so we encourage you to revisit the page as your arrival date approaches or email us at info@blackbirdresort.com.
