Rooms were clean and the property is old but well maintained. Lot of iguanas to see near the river. Plenty of parking. The property is about 20 minutes from the airport and is in a quiet setting.

Great place to stay near the airport. Clean rooms and comfy beds. The restaurant is amazing, the staff is super friendly and this was probably some of the best food we ate in our two weeks in Belize and that is saying a lot because the food is spectacular throughout the country. Great way to end our trip with good food and a morning filled with lovely birds singing and howler monkeys. Highly recommend!

What a great spot! The entire property is charming, wonderful restaurant, rum bar, pool, and river access. The staff was incredibly helpful, helping us plan a sunset river cruise and secure transfers to and from the airport. Highly recommend.

I needed a last minute place to stay when my flight was delayed, and the staff was incredibly accommodating. They provided a shuttle from the airport for a very reasonable cost. As a woman traveling alone, I appreciated that the driver was right at the airport exit, wearing a hotel branded shirt, and the sign also had the hotel name.

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)

I loved it all. The river view, pool, bar, restaurant, service, and how kind and sweet everyone were. I loved the location, the peace and tranquility it brought to my life. Which was much need for an Emergency Room RN. When I arrived I was greeted my a wonderful young man, he was kind and very pleasant. This world needs more people like.him in it. My only regret is having to leave so soon. Thank you all for everything, I appreciate it so much!

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!

4/10 Fair

Good restaurant with helpful and friendly staff. Available canoeing on the river was great, as was just sitting overlooking Grounds maintenance was uneven, some okay near pool and river and other areas not well taken care of. We stayed in 2 rooms. The second seemed cleaner and nicer than the first, but had a broken sink plug mechanism. Hotel is not near anything.
