It had what we needed, which was good access to the airport. The property is a little dated and quirky, but they've done what they can to create a fun vacation vibe. The view is fantastic and I really enjoyed the crocodile viewing tower, though we didn't see any. There were mosquitoes and I wouldn't want to stay here during the rainy season. Restaurant food was fine, but those restaurant prices are sneaky... Watch out! (It feels like a bit of a scam and doesn't do justice to the overall warn Belize experience - too bad)

The property was secluded upon arrival we were greeted by security and staff who assisted you with luggage to our room. Overall our stay was unbothered. It was very peaceful and serene. We went with our 3 a d 6 year old children and they loved it. We got a room with a kitchenette. but no pots or pans. We asked staff and they gave us a pot. We were short on wash cloths and towels and they gave it to us. If you dont see something just ask. Also if you like to fish they have fishing rods available for rental. Plenty good fish are in the river. My husband caught a snook and the hotel staff prepared it for us. It tasted amazing thanks to Chef Ellis. I also met the manager he is a cool down to earth guy. My overall experience was lovely. Wish we had stayed longer. Cant wait to go back. They also have a cruise than you can take along the river to sightsee and fish. We did an early morning cruise and saw howler monkeys, manatees, dolphins, iguanas swimming, crocodiles and a wide variety of edible fish..Our captain Anthony was knowledgeable and gave us a great tour along the river.

1- On my 2nd day on the property, I advised office personnel about not having Wifi and got a nonchalant response, someone would look at it later. I miss two days of work because of this. 2- the staff charger me $40 Belize dollars which is equivalent to $20 US dollars, just to wash one load of laundry( not allowed to wash your own clothes). I went to office and asked what is the cost of laundry service, he told me $10 US. He told me hold on and he will check. He came back a few minutes and gave me back $20 BZE dollars. 3- there is no store nearby and after there is no drinking water after hours. With that being said, you are charge to be driven into town to purchase water etc.. 4- the resort overcharges for the food and everything is in US Dollars. 5- The resort will cheat you out of money if the opportunity arises. 6- I requested to go elsewhere and was advised I would not get a refund.

The property was beautifully tended to. We did not receive the room we reserved and were put in the back of the property near the junk piles and broken vehicles. We had the reservations for over three months and were given the worst room on the property. The staff was helpful but disorganized and follow through was slow if it happened at all.

No vegetarian options. Polluted river. On they flip side, high nitrogen in the river produced very lush shorelines. Cabins were clean, in excellent shape and well appointed. Dine early to avoid the no see ums, as restaurant seating is outdoors. Nice river paddle (gear could use some upkeep) but shower afterwards. Excellent internet connectivity. Friendly and helpful staff - kitchen at restaurant is small so some patience is necessary. What we did eat was well prepared. I would visit again as a transition spot for the airport but my vegan brother would not.

Communication was excellent! The directions we recieve were perfect and took us right to the office. Once there, we were greeted and quickly checked in. The property is quite pretty, and has terrific potential. However, it is starting to look a bit run down. The grounds are clean, but the decks are showing their age. The pool was nice, but limited seating, and again the wood decking needs attention. There is a large pergola area for shade, however the fabric was tatered and torn (needs replaced). The restaurant is ok, and some of the food we got was delicious, but 1/2 of it was not edible for us, as we cannot handle spicy food. The menu does not match what the chef sends out (expect onions & peppers in EVERYTHING). Even plain food we read & ordered still showed up with peppers, onions, tomatoes, etc. in it. The room we got was clean & comfortable inside. The shower was larger than expected, and the toilet was in a separate space, which was very nice for privacy. The bed was decent, there was a table & chairs, and a TV that worked. The few problems were: very strange entrace to the room. It was large sliding glass doors with advertising murals covering them, like a sales office at one time? There were drapes on the inside to provide privacy, however the doors closed poorly, and offered no sound proofing of any kind. The shower door had no handle so was difficult to close, and some trim in the room was falling off. This place just needs some attention!

This place could be really nice. The grounds are nice. My A/C didn't cool very well. Breakfast & Dinner were very bad. Dinner was a pounded 1/2 chicken breast swimming in garlic butter with soaked smashed potato and few veggies. Breakfast was Tablespoon of yogart, 2 slices of toast with butter / jam few pieces fruit. No water in rooms. Toilet was plugged upon arrival. No internet so TV didn't work either. The check in office is very odd and wierd. Room had a claws foot tub right in entryway with misc faucet on side from wall.
