Description:
Small Hope Bay Lodge offers you a true tropical experience with an easy island style. The resort has twenty-one cottage rooms (including a Honeymoon cottage!) plus two beaches, delicious food, a help-yourself bar, and simple all-inclusive rates. Our rooms have no phones or TVs, and our guests never have to wear shoes.
For activities we have diving, snorkeling, fishing, hammocks, kayaks, windsurfers, bicycles, nature walks, massage, a hot tub on the beach, and a small sailboat. For adventure, the third largest barrier reef in the world lies just one mile offshore. We have a full-service dive and snorkeling operation, and offer free lessons for beginners.
Small Hope Bay Lodge is the winner of the Cacique Award for Ecotourism and Best Company/Group, and a finalist for the American Express CHA Green Award for Ecotourism. We are also listed as one of the "100 Best Resorts of the Caribbean". The resort was opened in 1960 by Canadian Dick Birch, and under the same Birch family management, continues its dedication to offering a natural refuge for rest, relaxation, rediscovery and romance.

Wedding Facilities:
Get married on the beach in a simple ceremony by the sea. We'll arrange it all, plus a reception for up to forty of your closest friends. All you have to do is show up!
For more than forty years, weddings have been a celebrated part of life at Small Hope Bay. Three generations of Birches have been married here. We'll bring a family warmth and tropical style to your wedding day.
We'll build you an arch of flowers, and make head wreaths, anklets, corsages and bouquets using blooms from our nearby gardens. We will decorate our outdoor patio with colorful Androsia fabric, ferns, and flowers and let the sea provide its own magnificent backdrop.
We'll arrange the paper work and contact the appropriate officials to perform the ceremony. We'll host your reception, serving up tasty hors d'oeuvres of our island specialties: conch fritters, grouper fingers, curried chicken wings, and more. An elegant tropical-style wedding cake, and sparkling champagne complete the celebration, that usually rolls right into the dinner hour at Small Hope Bay Lodge.
We will capture the event on video, using your favorite CDs for music. We will also take your pictures. All you have to do is show up and enjoy the moment! You might even want to stick around for the honeymoon!

Directory Search Tips
Completely
spell out city and state/province names. Use "Los Angeles" rather than "LA" and
"Hawaii" instead of "HI."
Specify at least one listing type: Accommodation,
Cruise, Wedding Professional, Tour Operator, Other Travel Professional
You
may select more than one listing types if you like. You can search for all the accommodations and wedding professionals
in Cancun if you like.
You
may search any word used in the business description. Businesses provide a description of their services which
is fully searchable.
No
luck with your search? Try
a broader search. Instead of looking for accommodations in Paris,
France with honeymoon packages and a pool, try just accommodations
and France.
