"The staff and front desk went above and beyond the call of duty. Room was comfortable and the view was priceless. The restaurant on site was great. I would recommend this location. "
"The rainforest lodge and all of the staff who work there goes above and beyond to ensure your stay in the enchanted place is perfect in every way possible. "
"Go here! We took our 17 and 12 y/o and no one wanted to leave. The staff is the friendliest and most anticipatory you will come across. They have your table setup each day, if they hear you mention wanting to try something they will make it happen (they literally went into the jungle and picked bread fruit for us), and they had items ready for every activity we had mentioned possibly wanting to do. They gave jungle, water activities, and excursions and they are all the cheapest we have found (25 USD jet skis or ATV/cave tour!)
Great for kids. They have animals, a swing, a two story water slide, a play house, and water is shallow and calm.
If you are worried about transportation they will get you (for a fee) and take you via taxi and water taxi through the jungle. It’s a secluded place with no other resorts. This means it doesn’t feel like a tourist trap (but that you may want to make a pit stop at the grocer).
Belizean owned and, while it’s only been a lodge for a few years, the property has been in their family for generations. It’s an eco lodge. They grow a lot of the food they serve and they use solar panels for electricity. They are also making several changes to the property to encourage the animal habitats.
A few minor details to note: no hot water (normal for this region), AC works great! Do ask them to restock the water in your room (it’s $1 USD a bottle at the bar). The WiFi is OK. Rooms r basic but beds r comfy, I’ll be back! "
"We had the place to ourselves and the beautiful wildlife right on the river. Shanna and Kenny were wonderful and handled every aspect of our trip. The pool and bbq were fun! I would definitely stay here again. The family of Howler Monkeys with babies were my favorite part. Peaceful, serene, and in the jungle."
"There was a lack of communication on my behalf, and I wasn’t able to stay the first night. After resolving the issue, they were very accommodating and friendly. The place is very beautiful, classy and safe. The restaurant was exceptionally good. When I go back to Belize, I will definitely be staying there. Fantastic experience. I would highly recommend this place. "
