Michelle, 3-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Our stay was AMAZING!! Beautiful property!! The BREAKFAST was sooo good!! We were away for lunch everyday, sadly! And dinner was Ok! I specifically book riverview #4 for the outside shower and tub. The ONLY recommendation I’d have is to find a way to cover the tub so we don’t have to clean it out before each use. I wasn’t even able to use it during my time there. But the shower was great!
Jontae, 3-night trip

8/10 Very good

Rainforest setting was great. Facility and staff all good. The ecotourism piece felt like a ruse to draw in buyers for the overall real estate scheme.

Suzan, 8-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This property is nestled inside its own private jungle. It's a very large, well kept property, with the rooms/cottages spread around so you have a good deal of privacy. There are only 20 rooms so it's not very busy and you often find yourself alone enjoying the peace and quiet of nature. They offer complimentary espresso machines, yoga mats, bicycles, paddle boards, and Kayaks. The pool is 24/7 and there are plenty of hikes nearby. They also offer tons of activities that you pay for separately. The restaurant having incredible food was a major plus including a giant woodfire pizza oven (didn't come to Belize for Pizza but not going to say I didn't enjoy it). I recommend picking up some fruit and hiking snacks on the way because they don't have any stores nearby. Each room has it's own filtered water machine.

Beautiful property in rain forest. We stay in this place second time and we will come back.
Ewa, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

This place was magical. My only recommendation would be to invest in an app that provides a map of the entire resort, this would make it easier to navigate the premises. The WiFi services could also be better, but I assume the point is to disconnect. All in all it was amazing.

I fell in love with this place as soon as I arrived! It was the perfect mix of relaxation and adventure. The location is beautiful, the room was stunning, and the views are magical!! The staff was great, super friendly, and helpful. The actives were fun. I can go on and on. I definitely plan to return!!

10/10 Exceptional

Staff were all amazing, so friendly and helpful. Our creekside cottage was perfect, the bed was comfy, loved the outdoor tub, and even had our own nespresso machine!! Tours were a little pricey so in all honesty, some we booked ourself. Loved our mayan cooking class and excursions through Upsidedown Tours, which the lodge introduced us to, hats off to them especially kevin and orlin!! A beautiful stay. You won't be disappointed. They seem to have booking sales too, so check and see.
bonnie, 7-night trip

8/10 Very good

Loved the property and restaurant. Sherman and the horseback ride was the highlight! Stayed in room 3 Creekside. I would avoid that room, road just in front and back so it was noisy during day early evening and morning and faced parking lot. Would avoid that cottage. The staff was friendly and helpful but given it was fully booked we had no options.

Rainforest Getaway

Came on our honeymoon. Stayed at the mountainbiew suite. The hotel is smack dab in the middle of the rainforest. Hotel itself is very cool and has plenty of places to explore, walk around and things to see. I enjoyed the ducks and animals around. The suite was nothing short of magnificent. Very spacious with incredible views. The plunge pool was used on a regular basis. So easy to just wind down after an adventure or cool off for a bit. Something very easing to just rlax and hear the forest and its sounds. The hammock in the room was a game changer. I love hammocks. So swaying to the sounds of the jungle was the best. Nothing like morning coffee on the hammock. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Staff would always encourage and offer to bring anything we needed straight to our room. Especially fortunate since there are a lot of stairs leading to the mountanview suites. Great location to go to ATM caves or blue hole. The blue hole was one of our favorite stops. Its very close to the hotel. We rented a car and could make the afternoon trip. It was empty. With clear water and a nice dio with some fishes, which I enjoy. We also were fortunate to see a pack of howler monkeys above us. The ATM caves are also a must see. The hotel seemed enpty in the best way. We felt we had it all to ourselves, which my wife loved. Cannot recommend it enough.

Beautiful property in a surreal environment. The staff was wonderful, and the fiod was excellent! We gad a ruver view room, whichbwas amazing. Only down side was we could hear our neighbors through the walls. Other than that no issues. Marvin, a tour guide, was the best! So very nice and professional with a vast knowledge of the flora and fauna, history, etc.
