Jungle lodge set on the edge of a lagoon and close to Lamanai Mayan ruins. The Lodge is situated in a beautiful natural setting and surrounded by rainforest that is home to howler monkey troops, keel billed toucans, leaf-cutter ants and a vast array of birdlife.
The best way to arrive is by a guided boat journey down the New River to the lagoon, viewing nature and enjoying the spectacular scenery.
Rooms are thatched cabanas overlooking the gardens or upgrade to one with a view of the lagoon
Dining is inclusive and there are several options from an excellent menu. Meals are taken in cool, open restaurant with views of the lagoon.
Onsite activities can include a choice of two each day from activities such as kayaking on the lagoon at sunrise, night spotlight river safari or a guided tour of nearby Lamanai Mayan ruins if booking an inclusive package.
Our comment: We particularly like the fact that the lodge employs friendly, local guides that have an excellent knowledge of the rainforest and the wildlife that inhabits it.
