What a place!

Absolutely perfect stay. We had the 2 bedroom villa which was gigantic. It comes with a well equipped kitchen and a back terrace that is perfect for breakfast sojourns before getting into the heat of San Ignacio. There is a pool here too, albeit small. The staff are particularly great, and everyone is super polite and helpful. You will need a car to get here, and it’d make sense to rent one anyway as you have to drive in Belize. There is a great walking/hiking trail in the property to get the juices flowing in the morning. All in all this was a super stay.

Property is idealy located next to Santa Elena and San Ignacio for easy access to all shopping and business needs. I do believe the pool area needs an upgrade, it's fine but time for a re- decking and more modern pool.

Tranquil little paradise in the nature! Loved the grounds and the authentic style of the rooms. Room was beautifully prepared with flower petal decoration on the bed & bathroom. Nice pool area to relax and 40 min nature trail through the trees although we didn’t see any tucans unfortunately. Shower pressure great - the best we had in Belize! Ate dinner and breakfast in the onsite restaurant - both delicious but a little on the pricey side. Turned up for breakfast one morning without pre-reserving/ordering and all worked out fine. Had a scorpion in the room one night but all part of the nature experience! Location is a short drive from the centre but far enough to feel totally in the nature. Highly recommend!

We had a really nice stay at Maya Mountain Lodge! The grounds are absolutely beautiful with so many plants, and the pool was much needed after being out exploring in the heat all day. Fiona’s Cafe had good food at reasonable prices. The staff was very friendly and helped us book taxis to and from town. Would recommend if you’re looking for a quiet place to stay in nature, but not too far from town!

Our jungle oasis

The Maya Mountain Lodge was our jungle oasis. It is a two minute drive from Santa Elena and less than 10 minutes from San ignacio. We stayed in Agouti which had a good sized bedroom with a 2 person table, bathroom and a kitchen in the porch area. The kitchen was set up with a microwave , toaster, fridge, coffee maker, kettle, gas stove, and oven. We cooked several meals there which is always a welcome change from eating out all the time. We also had our own outdoor area with a picnic table and hammock. The grounds were a tropical arboretum with a lovely variety of plantings. We paid a nominal fee for a bird walk around the property. Levi helped us see 24 species including stunners like the collared aracari and the keel billed Toucan. The staff was very helpful helping us schedule outings, do our laundry ($10 USD) or recommend a pizza place. The pool area seemed fine but needed better seating. One night a concert in town was so loud that it kept us up until 3 AM - not the Lodge's fault exactly. Otherwise it was very quiet and restful.

Welcome to the Garden of Eden! This jungle lodge felt so lush and the grounds were absolutely relaxing and peaceful. Definitely an oasis. The shared patios, decks, and pool area were a highlight with gorgeous surroundings, bird sounds, and hammocks galore. Cesar was amazing in helping me book tours weeks before our trip, and coordinating shuttles, airport transfers, taxis, and pretty much everything we could have desired--our own travel agent with such quick response times! So grateful for him! Even when one of our tours was cancelled last minute due to a ferry malfunction, Cesar coordinated an impromptu cooking class that ended up being of of my favorite parts of the trip. Our only complaint was that the beds were quite hard, but otherwise, a perfect place!

The front desk was extra helpful in arranging transportation to outings and to the airport. They are very service oriented. The lodge is definitely a unique place of cabins in a jungle atmosphere with beautiful plants, but close to town. The 5 of us stayed in a 3BR family cabin. Two of us took advantage of having massages in their cute little spa, which was great. We ate dinner and most breakfasts at their little restaurant. Very good food.

Great Service

If you stay here, have then arrange your tours. I used another service that wouldn't pick me up at the hotel. However, they called and got them changed for me. They provided excellent service. The hotel is outside of town so if you are looking for a quiet place located in the trees then I would highly recommend it.
