Meet Casa Al Mar
A 6-bedroom vacation rental, where every table comes with a view
Casa Al Mar is a family-run island home on St. George's Caye, about 20 minutes by private boat from Belize City. The 6-bedroom house is booked by one group at a time, so it belongs to you and your friends, and comes with a private chef, house staff, captain and licensed tour guide for marine adventures during your stay.
Call it mahj with a view. We've done the packing for you, every trip includes complete mahjong sets for unlimited play during your stay. You can reserve your suitcase for swimsuits and sundresses instead of tiles and racks.
What a day of Mahjong looks like at Casa Al Mar
Reef in the morning, racks in the afternoon
The best part of a mahjong trip is that the game fits around everything else. Your captain and guide plan the water days around your group, and the tables are there whenever you are ready to sit back down.
Morning
Coffee on the dock, then out on your private boat to snorkel the Belize Barrier Reef or swim at a nearby sandbar with a bartender on board.
Afternoon
Lunch from your private chef, then it’s time for tiles. Play in the island breeze in the afternoon, take a kayak out before sunset, or call a hammock break.
Evening
Dinner together under one roof, a sunset toast to whoever won the day, and a few more games for anyone who isn't ready to call it a night.
Everything is taken care of for you.
No cooking. No cleaning. No planning.
With a private chef, house staff and your own captain, every part of your stay is taken care of for you. Nobody shops, cooks, washes a dish or makes a bed. The only thing anyone has to think about is her next tile, cocktail or swim spot.

Good for the mind, better for the soul.
Mahjong keeps your mind sharp, with every hand bringing a new challenge of strategy, memory, and quick thinking. A Caribbean getaway offers something just as important: the chance to slow down, unwind, and recharge.
At Casa Al Mar, you get the best of both worlds. With our team taking care of the cooking, cleaning, and planning, your only decisions are which tile to discard and whether to take a dip in the Caribbean Sea before or after your next game.
