Friendly and laid back resort on the Belize river. My wife and stayed for 3 nights, and enjoyed lounging by the pool and taking an all day trip to Lamanai as well as a local river cruise. Amazing wildlife! We saw howler monkeys, iguanas, parrots and countless other birds in the resort itself. The restaurant at the resort is quite good. We also appreciated the location just 20 minutes from the airport (although it feels very secluded)

Perfect hotel for the last night before leaving to the airport. They arranged an early morning shuttle, and a pickup from the water taxi and tour of the monkey sanctuary the day before. Then I relaxed poolside and had a delicious dinner in the restaurant. A very peaceful place on the river. The sound of the monkeys at night was fascinating!

Nice spacious room, excellent staff that helped us with zip line/atv trip in the jungle (transportation and booking excursion) and transportation to and from Belize and water taxi to San Pedro was also prearranged and seamless with reliable companies. Quiet resort perfect to decompress. Everyone friendly including guests. The right vibe to start the Belize trip.

This hotel was exactly what we needed for our first night in Belize. Clean, comfortable, quiet, and very friendly staff all around. We used this hotel as a first night launchpad since we arrived later in the day and didn't want to drive the two hours in the dark to San Ignacio. Much nicer grounds and pool than we expected and we were very happy with our dinner (fish and shrimp dishes) and great breakfast. This is a perfect place to stay on the front or back end of a trip to be close to the airport, or even to stay for a couple of days for nearby excursions!

The sidewalls of the king mattress in riverfront room T4 were completely collapsed on both sides, resulting in a very disconcerting feeling that we would roll off! We managed to shove bath robes under each side to reduce the issue. Since a comfortable bed is expected when paying a premium rate, 3 stars is all we can give. Otherwise, the resort had congenial staff, a decent restaurant, and a quiet, peaceful riverfront location.

What stood out most was how naturally the property fits into its surroundings. The pool area feels open and relaxed, surrounded by palms and jungle. We spent time swimming, having drinks by the pool, and settling into the quiet. The food and cocktails were consistently strong, and even the local wildlife, including an iguana wandering through, added to the experience. The staff were welcoming and attentive without hovering, which made the stay feel easy and comfortable. The morning river tour with Edmund was a highlight. We saw howler monkeys, crocodiles, and a wide range of birds, but what made it exceptional was the depth of history he shared about Burrell Boom. Hearing it from someone who grew up there, and even seeing a copy of his family’s land title from the 1800s, added a level of authenticity you cannot manufacture.
