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.

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.

The accomodation was perfectly taken care of; surroundings at the hotel as well. The pool was nice, but is in the afternoon in the shadow, and has too little sunbeds to provide a bed for all hotel guests. The restaurant was good.
